Thank you very much Margaret, that is so interesting.

I did find a reference on the net about 'British Welcome Clubs.' It might be that there is a link there. The quote says:-

'When American troops began to arrive in Britain in 1942, the WVS (Women's Voluntary Service) ran 200 'British Welcome Clubs' all over the country in attempt to bridge the divide between the troops and British civilians.'

I would not like to attach a link on here, but the quote was found on an archived BBC website.

I have made a note of all your other info too!

Regards, Bronwyn
