Hi, Simon! After 13 days at sea, we chugged up the Mersey to Crewe, but we werent given time to chase pigeons, as fun as that would have been. Put on trains and taken to Nantwich, where we were stationed at Doddington Park. Ever hear of it? Simon Spurdle wrote: > Mr Hart wrote that he was stationed near Crewe. That reminds me that my mother has a very clear memory of seeing crates of messenger pigeons stacked on the platform of Crewe station. > As little girl she would chase the feathers and she remembers the platform also being crowded with soldiers. Perhaps one of them was you Mr. Hart? > > Regards > > Simon Spurdle
