Ex Dursley Scouter
As Webmaster for the 1st Dursley Scout Group I was pleasantly surprised to receive a communication from someone who was a Wolf Cub, Scout and Senior Scout at 3rd Dursley (St.James) from 1941 to 1949. I asked him whether he had any memories of his time in Dursley that he would be prepared to share and I have copied his reply below. I hope you enjoy reading it as I did. If you like it please feel free to leave a comment below. Mike.
