Joan was down here on the Island because of the Land Army. I met Joan through her coming into the shop, that was the only way. We used to get talking.Phil Kelsey
I was working out at Wellow on the Chessell estate for Sir Hampton Rowbottom up in the dairy. A typical day would be going up Cowleaze to fetch the cows when the mail train came through to Yarmouth. We milked 120, then we went home for breakfast. Afterwards we came back and washed up all the milking things, and they were all sterilised. We had to scrub the milking parlour down ,and then out on the yard where they came in. The cows were turned out back again till teatime, then we started again, twice a day. We met and got married in 1950. Joan Kelsey
