Born at overcliff Guest House in 49, moved to AU in 74. Then back to my beloved Teignmouth in 93. Drowned my first wristwatch in the river aged 7. You can take the boy out of the teign, but you cant take the teign out of the boy.

My home town, and I spent the first 11 years of my life there. I'm 80 now and living in Canada, but the old place still looks lovely to me whenever I visit. Pretty sure I can see my sister getting on the ferry at 6.02. Nice to hear Franklin (Jingles) Engelman too, a BBC voice from my youth. Thanks Guy.

I was born in. Teignmouth in 1932. Now 85yrs young and still live in in the house is was born in. I worked on the Peter pan railway by the light house for two summer seasons. Also the deck chairs. Teignmouth! No place like it. Although it has changed over the years and in some cases not for the best. Progress i wonder.

Hello Eric, do you remember a Teignmouth family called Rowe? We used to stay with them for our summer holidays in the 1950’s when we came down from N. Yorks. They lived in a house called ‘Ravensbourne’ on Higher Woodway Road and Stan Rowe was a Liberal Councillor. In the mid 50’s he was Mayor of Teignmouth. He also owned Lendens Butchers in the town. Very happy times and memories as a youngster and I loved your Peter Pan railway 👍
