I've recently discovered I have ancestors who came from Minster, going back maybe three hundred years or more. Some of them were fishermen. Quite proud of this... 🙂

I also had good holidays staying with the Croucher family at Halfway .

I know its easy to look back with rose tinted specs but i wonder how many of those people in the old pics would be horrified at how life has turned out ( despite us having cars , tv's , washing machines etc ) ???

Given they live longer, have better health-care and child mortality rates have dropped since 'them days' I reckon they feel thankful for those benefits. Perhaps you would feel better in them there good old days when you could set up a factory making children's nightdresses from a petrol by-product and no one, and I mean NO ONE , could ever demand you make them from fireproof materiel instead. I mean its up to the parents to stop them burning to death innit? 'elf & safety has ruined the country, .......immigrants, ... always leave your front door open, .............bread and dripping, .....an orange for Christmas.......we were 'appy.........

They should cover the Isle of Sheppey permanently in snow as it looks so much better with it. 🤣

I am wondering if R. Bentley was related to my fathers side of the family.
