Weekend trip to London 1958
Mike Keen, Bill Jones and Barry Biggins
outside the old Euston Station on 22nd Feb 1958.
We had hitch-hiked to London along the old A4
(no M4 in those days).
Dufflecoats, mightily 'quiffed' hairstyles and
the old white, maroon and black college scarves
then 'de rigeur' for the late 1950's student.
(I still have my old, slightly moth-eaten,
college scarf).
