Simmonds built boats up Ommanney Road. They built a boat that was too big to get out. Bloody hell it came down that ramp, it was going! I thought it was going in the old funeral parlour, but Jim managed to hold it and Ray, John and Harry put blocks of wood under the wheels to stop it. They went down the High Street with it, and couldn’t turn at the Town Hall. Brian Pomroy b 1937
