In fact your photos make it look a lot more neat and tidy and colourful. My mum used to bring home many stories to entertain us over dinner. They were mostly funny. The staff often played tricks on one another. There was also the hard work and dangerous times too, but she enjoyed her work there and was sad to see it close. Ryde was too far for her to travel from Loftus by public transport so she got a job at the Waterfall Sanitarium but was never as happy there. Looking forward to more of your deightful posts.diane bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12002292118984909883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1917748826116414599.post-18562306611035224412009-11-25T12:13:43.095+11:002009-11-25T12:13:43.095+11:00I learn something new every day.
