The Tale of the Bogeyman: Mr Plimsolls Patrick's Account AUDIO from Katie Lima on Vimeo.
Transcript: Patrick’s Account 1 (Including Catharine)
Patrick: The Bungalow eventually got knocked down, and a new
bungalow was built in its place after he die. A really nice bungalow and I
remember speaking to the people that used to live in it, Marion and whatever
the other fellas name was, he was a Docker and she worked in Barleys Bank. And
that’s it, but I think it was haunted…
Haunted how?
Catharine: By the wife that
was put in the freezer
Patrick: Yeh..
So what made you think that there was a wife in the freezer?
Catharine: That’s what they
all said, there was a wife in the freezer, and if anybody could get in there…
Patrick: No,
Probably, people probably said things to the kids to frighten them to keep ‘em
in, and said that the Plimsoll man would come get cha.
Transcript: Granddad’s Account 2
Patrick: He was a little old man who lived in Park Avenue,
Gravesend, in a dilapidated little bungalow, obviously lived on his own. He was
about 5’2” but his back was bent over that made him about 4’10” always wore
plimsolls, and um in the summer time he’d come out with a pair of dilapidated
shorts, carrying a bag when he’d go get his shopping.
The kids used to run away when they saw him, I think he was harmless. Sometimes
he’d speak and say hello, sometimes he wouldn’t, he would come down one side of
the road and then come up the other side of the road, obviously coming back
from the town, he’d then go up towards Echo Square, and maybe do a little bit
of shopping there, you didn’t see him too often but when you did see him you
knew he was around, because the kids used to run away
