I was taken on the Hayling Billy way back in about 1960 with my younger brother and a neighbours child by my mothers housekeeper for a day at the sea side. Great adventure. 🙂
As a boy I used to stand on the bridge at Havant in awe of the Billy wondering what it would be like to actually take a ride on it. Never did as Mum and Dad did it have two pennies to rub together. Still great memories.
Used to travel on Billy as a kid walking from the station to Higworth Caravan Park for two weeks' holiday in a caravan named Sunray...memories. Now half the world away. 🦘
Only happy memories of travelling to the sea side on the Hayling Billy on very hot days. Return trip not so good, packed in like sardines, hot and tired.
