I feel I could have had a proper stroll down memory lane with your Dad. |

Proper Sunday markets before Sunday trading hours changed it.
The smell of sun cream on a hot day.
Sweets in jars in the shop.
The Christmas lights in London being decent and not sponsored by a film. |

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound |
A friend found a film on the BFI archives of where I grew up. It has changed almost beyond recognition but it was amazing to see people and places I used to know back then. It really showed me how I was shaped.
The large bomb damaged and derelict areas of then are all gone now but a few things still remain.

My Nanna and Grandad. It would have been my Nans' 80th birthday yesterday.
The relationship I had with my Mum when I was a child. It deteriorated badly when I hit my teens and never recovered.

A simpler pace of life before mobiles, iPads, pc's, social media, vacuous none celebrities, etc.
The era of morecombe and wise being seen as funny and a female newsreaders legs being shocking and newsworthy.
Village and youth club disco's, snogging girls in the park, school summer holidays when it was always hot and lasted for ever.
Don't get me started, I could go on for ever.
And the comments about dearly departed loved ones has me choked up  |

Groups of kids actually playing games in the streets. Kids these days need lessons in how to climb trees.. (safety harness, goggles, gloves). The cub group I volunteer at had never played conkers before!
How many children go and build dens in the woods or go hedgebombing these days???
