Brings back memories! I worked at Warnford Hospital, now long gone, in late 50s-.
Remember Pump rooms with the Van-Der- Ven trio.playing violins around the tables.I had a birthday there.-we were poor nurses- then and they played me an embarrassing medley of songs . I'll always think of that day when I hear-'Golden Earrings' and all my nurse friends singing along.
I think the trio were surprised when they joined in-just wasn't done in those days.

There are some nice old pictures of nurses back in the 50's.

See if you would recognize them.
