He had a ‘girl’ on each arm and, after putting money in the Juke Box, he cleared a space on the floor and rock-and-rolled enthusiastically with both of them. Shortly after I started work in Winchester, in October 1959, I learned that two other former classmates had also got jobs there. I was in The Guildhall, which fronted onto the south side of The Broadway, and Roger Burlinson was a trainee draughtsman in Sawyer’s architectural office, nearly opposite the Guildhall, on the north side. King Kong Crash Climber John Collins had got a job in the Winchester City Corporation Building Surveyor’s office at the top of the hill, along Romsey Road, very near Winchester prison.

So far as anyone knew he is still there but despite trying many ways to trace him it was not possible. Private cars were few and far between, only owned by well-off people like doctors, bank managers, vets, and businessmen. Everybody else walked, used bicycles or the local buses while a few of the older workers had a motorcycle, many with a side car attached. Eastleigh was originally named Bishopstoke Junction, named after the nearby village of Bishopstoke.

This ingenious invention was a way of pumping water from a river up to a higher level. The force of the river water operated two pistons or plungers which gradually forced the water up a pipe to the level required. Once the pump was primed and started it operation was completely automatic, powered by the river alone and worked 24/7. St Michael’s Square itself has been tidied up, has been re-paved and pedestrianised, with only one road along the west side.

The Hastings architectural firm Jeffrey and Skiller successfully submitted a design for a new Guildhall in the Gothic revival style. On 22nd December 1871 Viscount Eversley laid the foundation stone and in May 1873 Lord Selborne opened the new Guildhall. The Guildhall was part of a larger complex, housing the law courts, police station and fire brigade. The greater part was given over to civic roles including council meetings, mayor making ceremonies, the mayor’s leaving banquet, and the mayor’s charity events. In the 1990s, in my early 50’s I was diagnosed with Ménières, a severe, progressive, and incurable affliction of the inner ear that will eventually make me deaf and makes me liable to sudden and unpredictable bouts of vertigo.

It was an old fashioned, sturdy, possibly post-WW2 touring machine, built more for comfort rather than speed. It looked more than slightly battered and worn but was clearly immaculately maintained. It was possibly a Rudge, with semi-dropped handlebars, a wide, comfortable saddle, three speed gears, rubber pedals with no toe-clips, stout steel spokes and wide steel wheel rims fitted with sturdy black tyres and black metal mudguards. Later, I turned our trip into a project and, for my first submission at Portsmouth in September, produced an account of our trip called ‘Environmental and Urban Design’.

If the original is bad, and this looks bad, it probably is bad.Here we have some Intamin mashup of tri-track leading into some modern spiney stuff. Negotiated horribly the whole way round, in an unpleasant ‘brain-rattling’ kinda way. The main mercy is that it traverses most of the layout at a snails pace due to poor pacing. The drop and loop are fast, and dire, but then it meanders around up high for an age, saving that little bit of sanity before a car crash of a final inversion.I won’t be seeking out the suspended side in a hurry. So the man had said #3 Chase Wind Rollercoaster was open. I took a wander into the queue to discover that, at the entrance to the cattlepen, a sign says it runs on 15 minute time slots.

What I had not seen in the dark was a car coming down Pauncefoot Hill towards me at high speed. It was an Austin Mini car which was being chased by a police car. It was thought that the car was doing about 100 mph at the bottom of the hill and in the poor light when it reached the junction on the curve the driver misjudged the road, touched the curb, and piled straight into the stationary Renault.

Halfway along the street the road kinked to the right and, in the elbow of the bend, the houses on that side had been pushed back to make a small, open, stone-paved area – the village square – so we parked and went to have a closer look. Around the perimeter there were a few small shops; a butcher, a baker that also sold cakes, pasties and pies, a newsagent and a hardware shop. In roughly the middle of this open space there was a small stone cross, about eight feet high, set on a three-foot-high round stone plinth with four steps circling it. At one point we drove into a small village or hamlet, perhaps of a hundred or a hundred and fifty houses, and the road turned into the village street with the grass verges becoming narrow pavements on either side. Small, simple stone, or white-washed houses lined each side of the street, perhaps originally built for farm labourers or estate workers.
