“Having moved to Chessington as a teenager in 1959, I started work at Hinchley Wood in 1962. I opened my first bank account at Barclays Bank, Ace Parade. I struggled to work through the harsh winter of 1962/63 with snow on the ground for 3 months.
“Having started a family, my wife walked over a mile each way with the pram and a tray underneath for the shopping to Sainsbury’s with their marble counters. Also stopping at Boots in the parade.
“Oh, great times and happy memories.”
Terry, Chessington resident
