great pics , asalittle boy my grandfather lived at pearl beach and every time we went to visit we would ask to go to eric worrels ,ehdidnt drive but knew the bus driver so he would take us from pearl beach to the depot at woy woy where we would wait for the north gosford bus to come . he never came with us so it was my brother 7 and me 5 together for the day . eric got to recognise us after many visits and would make sure we were ok throughout the day . What a shame we didnt have a camera back then
