"I used to have a policeman walk me across the park every night because I was carrying a lot of money, can you imagine that happening these days"A few years before that, my grandfather was treasurer of Bromley Football Club. On a Saturday evening, he used to count out the takings from the afternoon match, put them into a leather money bag, and walk the whole length of Bromley High Street unaccompanied, carrying the bag, to deposit it in the night safe at the bank. As you say, you can't imagine that happening now.
