Residents gather in Buckland, Portsmouth, with 'Bunky Doo-dalee-do', real name Alfred Nicholson. The image was taken in 1945 in Sultan Road. He used to help run the boys’ club in Fratton Road, opposite St Mary's Church. He was well known for his Meccano skills and made a large model of either the Queen Mary ship or the Queen Elizabeth. He was always involved in raising money for some cause, he volunteered as much as physically able. He played his accordion at parties
and to the queues outside cinemas and sold the Football Mail at the top of Sultan Road.
