This was the best and most exciting part of our trip, one which Holly, Stacy and I will never forget. Holly's father was Raymond E. Talman of Willits, California, USA. Her grandfather was Sidney P.S. Talman of Aldershot, Surrey and her great grandfather was James Talman of Ipswich, Suffolk and he lived in Aldershot with his wife, Holly's great grandmother Florence Talman (formerly Stonehouse).

We headed off to our first live-in pub job at the Red Lion Pub, established way back in the late 18th century in a tiny litlle village called Betchworth which is in Surrey, South East of London. This was a whole new experience for us, living and working in one place.. There was a bus stop right outside the pub that we could take into the next town,Dorking, it had a bit more to offer than Betchworth's Post Office, Church and ... read more
