Hi everyone
Just discovered this site. I was in the WRAF at RAF Haydock from 1954 until1956, when I left to go to Germany. I remember the camp very well - could even draw a map of it. I was a Teleprinter Op. I have some photos of the WRAF block, both inside and out, also other photos of us on parade for Remembrance Day I think. We worked shifts. After night duty we went to the Transport Cafe for breakfast - I think I also have a photo of some of the girls taken outside the cafe. I made many good friends at Haydock and a couple of years back about 8 of us met , in York, to celebrate the 50th anniversery of our first meeting, we have all kept in touch in spite of now living so far apart. My watch WO was WO Roberts and he formed a "choir" -and we used to go round Haydock inflicting ourselves on poor unsuspecting people in hospital and such like. One Winter there was a flu epidemic and as sick quarters only had two beds, the girls who were sick all got moved into one of the bigger rooms in the WRAF block and we all suffered together - then got two weeks sick leave. The Wraf Officer there had a nice little scotty type dog - got a picture of him as well.
