I haven't seen pince-nez type spectacles since the 1960s. Back then it used to be common to witness rich ladies donning them, or lorgnettes, to view pictures at art exhibitions from close quarters, sometimes with an accompanying remark such as "It would look nice over the fireplace, wouldn't it, Ferdinand"

Read about 10 year olds in 1955 ringing the bell of St Andrews Stockwell and being chased by Father Shipley. Father Shipley and Father Northcott were jolly good eggs especially when my friend Fred and I received our choirboy pay from them every month - 2/6.
