Howdy from us Westies.
William 'Bump' Murphy here. An early Merry Christmas to all.
I have not been on in a bit. ..My Mum Dad and all the children of William Geo. Murphy/Audrey Murphy including Ernie. William. Gale. Larry. Roseanne and Guy lived at number 7 Ubique up until summer of 1960 or so. Long time and good friends of all other Ubique residents. Should be advised for the 'brats' site of that fact (# 7).
My bother Ernie ( deceased) played on the Shilo Bruins hockey I believe the team was called. My Dad and Mum ran the coffee stand at Sports Palace. ....We lived in H -Huts before first small PMQ across camp before moving to freshly built larger houses. We had coal furnaces in the first one we lived in. Went to nursery school in that house. ..My Dad was one of the bus drivers from the Transport Motor Poole section.
Brrrrrr. All of us camp brats spent a lot of time in them there winters fighting snow fences and snow drifts. ....Summers were hot and do not know whether the bugs or the ' foggers' of DDT. chems or whatever it was that sprayed the homes and streets was the lesser of evil. Gopher hunting and catching grasshoppers.
Waggle Springs was only a place where my Dad would take me on some weekends to help 'Jack' fish.
My Dad was bartender at Sgt's mess so I helped him clean the mess dirty tables and cigarette ashtray and cans on Sat and Sunday morn..
I certainly remember many names. The guys mostly. Chris Evoy and a couple of the Martin boys were our best friends. As were the Findlay boys. The Whitings were across street form us. Funny that now I cannot remember the name of our neighbors in our duplex.
Anyway just checking in to let you know we were there at good 'ol # 7.
Chuckle. True story here. My Dad had a hot temper and my brother Ernie aquired a ' Bowie' knife against his wishes. Dad promptly punched a hole in the gyproc wall just before where you would walk up the stairs. He tossed in the knife and holster and plastered back up the hole. Knife was probably still there when they knocked down # 7. I have many stories like that one. ..Mum Dad and all us kids living there.
We put the first grass on that slip of property. Each family was responsible for their own half. Drives and garage were done after that.
later Wm.

Thanks for the reply directing me back to the 60s info but not the amount of info etc as there was when it was 50/60 combined page. I guess the early - mid 50s group is getting smaller as most of us are moving on.

In the Shilo Little League - 1956 Red Sox photo on the pre 60s sports page, I am incorrectly identified as being in this photo. I left Shilo during the summer of 1957 after grade 6. This is probably a 1957 photo taken after I was gone.
Thanks
Mike :)
