  • The Just William Series of Books Was Born Richmal Crompton Lamburn in 1890
    PEPYS JUST WILLIAM CARD GAME Comments about the cards in the game Richmal Crompton who wrote the Just William series of books was born Richmal Crompton Lamburn in 1890. She was the daughter of a clergyman and became a schoolmistress in 1914. She gave up teaching because she had begun to write part time in 1919 and was successful, so she decided to make it her full time job. She was very active in the Women’s Suffrage movement. Unfortunately she contracted poliomyelitis in 1923 and as a result she lost all use of her left leg and became confined to a wheelchair. She never married. The very first William story was published in Home Magazine and was entitled “Rice Mould Pudding”. The books about William were very popular and she wrote a total of 38 in all. Her other books also sold well and she wrote 41 adult novels, which she considered to be her main work, and another 9 books of short stories. All the William series were collections of short stories and they sold over 12 million copies in the UK alone. The illustrator of the William books was Thomas Henry Fisher (known as Thomas Henry) who illustrated Richmal Crompton’s books from 1919. Strangely, he never met her until 1954. He was also well known for his cartoons for Punch and London Opinion from 1945 to 1952. The very popular radio series of 1948 was broadcast on Children’s Hour by the BBC with David Spenser playing William and the stuck up Hubert Lane played by Charles Hawtry.

For many years afterwards William associated babies in his mind with paraffin-oil and potato. Sly, Dry, Grave, and Very Funny, February 28, This isn't sitcom funny; this is humorous in a sly, observant, understanding and wise fashion. He has been known to take over in William's absence and is his best friend. They were to be married by the Archbishops of Canterbury and York, or else the Pope. The stories are perfect for nostalgia purposes; bringing to life a bygone era of England, the early 20th century, when children could play in the woods and streams and engage in all kinds of dangerous pursuits without the intervention of adults. There would be very little to do in the house and as far as William was concerned they hoped for the best. He's not evil, or bad or vindictive: he lives by a strong moral compass and acts to do good for those around him The William series 38 books written over a span of 40 years, onwards also throws light upon middle class life in England at the time, and especially shows the dogged determination of the British as the country braced itself for war. He might as well have Just William five pounds. Just William walked over to the looking-glass and surveyed his reflection with interest.

  • LONDON WALK NO 126 – GROUP 3 – CHISLEHURST CAVES ORGANISED by JAN DAVIDSON & JANET O'reilly – Wednesday 21 August 20
    LONDON WALK NO 126 – GROUP 3 – CHISLEHURST CAVES ORGANISED BY JAN DAVIDSON & JANET O’REILLY – Wednesday 21st August 2019 11 intrepid explorers caught the 10.01 train from Tonbridge Station for the journey to Chislehurst, changing at Orpington. The numbers were down due to a clash with a U3A trip to “Oklahoma” (not literally of course!). As usual there was some hilarity, as they nearly lost John who had left his new hat on the train. Due to a little early morning confusion another 2 followed on the 10.19, which must have been a faster train as the later 2 caught the early 11 up on the walk to the caves. (Keep up !!). There was just a short 5 minute walk to the entrance to the Caves. The entrance hall to Chislehurst Caves is very interesting, having photographs and memorabilia from its past and various videos on a continuous loop about the history of Chislehurst. We stopped for coffee and joined the 12 o’clock tour. The Chislehurst Caves have a long and varied history, and the tour would only show visitors one-twentieth of the 22 linear miles of known tunnels. The full extent of the caves is unknown even today, and clearing away rock from some seeming cul-de-sac may suddenly reveal the entrance to yet another labyrinth of passages. The earliest recorded reference to chalk mining at Chislehurst is in a Saxon Charter written between 1250 and 1274. Reliable information only became available in 1862 when the Ordnance Survey mapped the area in great detail in readiness for the construction of the South Eastern Railway’s line to Tonbridge.

  • Just William
    Just William By Richmal Crompton Just William CHAPTER I WILLIAM GOES TO THE PICTURES It all began with William’s aunt, who was in a good temper that morning, and gave him a shilling for posting a letter for her and carrying her parcels from the grocer’s. “Buy some sweets or go to the Pictures,” she said carelessly, as she gave it to him. William walked slowly down the road, gazing thoughtfully at the coin. After deep calculations, based on the fact that a shilling is the equivalent of two sixpences, he came to the conclusion that both luxuries could be indulged in. In the matter of sweets, William frankly upheld the superiority of quantity over quality. Moreover, he knew every sweet shop within a two miles radius of his home whose proprietor added an extra sweet after the scale had descended, and he patronised these shops exclusively. With solemn face and eager eye, he always watched the process of weighing, and “stingy” shops were known and banned by him. He wandered now to his favourite confectioner and stood outside the window for five minutes, torn between the rival attractions of Gooseberry Eyes and Marble Balls. Both were sold at 4 ounces for 2d. William never purchased more expensive luxuries. At last his frowning brow relaxed and he entered the shop. “Sixpennoth of Gooseberry Eyes,” he said, with a slightly self-conscious air. The extent of his purchases rarely exceeded a penny. “Hello!” said the shopkeeper, in amused surprise. “Gotter bit of money this mornin’,” explained William carelessly, with the air of a Rothschild.
