This memory revived by Mildreds story:

鈥淢ildred鈥� on the Leicester Road

Bringing Fritz back from a long walk along the Leicester Road, Lutterworth, I heard this lady in the distance singing. It was such a beautiful sunny day, it was made for singing. Was it Mildred who delighted me when cycling to work carefree and happy on the Leicester Road singing 鈥淚鈥檒l be with you in apple blossom time鈥�? I鈥檇 like to think so. The memory of that day is still as fresh and beautiful today as it was then. I can still see the exact spot, beside the seat, just beyond the last house leading out of Lutterworth toward Leicester, where she passed me with her funny battered hat, vee necked pullover, corduroy trousers, high socks, sturdy shoes and creaky bike, off on her way to one of the farms up the road. Thank you 鈥淢ildred鈥�.
