Me a child,young,my sister not yet born Taids house and Noson Lawen A winters fire candles and black oak Nans best china and pressed white tablecloth home cured ham,bara brith,tea ,and later beer.
Me a boy Nans house no more Taid Late autumn sunshine,tea, bara brith,scones,fishing in the river for Perch back to Nans to get warm Later telly supper bath and bed all flanellet and heavy blankets
Me a teenager the house no Nan no Taid Uncle Ken,very quiet slightly uncomfortable the heart and warmth are gone. All the time spent now just memories The house soon to be sold and to become another's past.
Me a father,school runs,mobile phones,can I have new trainers,global warming,recession,mot's,health and safety,bank accounts I go to the local, open fires,black oak,cured ham sandwich and beer dreaming of catching Perch in the river and Nans house.
