Wembley, Teampall Sílín and Szczecin
I remember the smell of biscuits from the McVities factory !!!!! I absolutely loved growing up in Wembley. Love this series Dean
Thanks Francis ! You must have spent lots of time in King Eddies as well
On occasion but more of a Preston Park gal 😊
Ah, you were one of those! I’ve lots of memories there too. Lots of cider and sitting on the slide.
The girl named as H in the piece lives right opposite it, but we couldn’t go there as it was too close to her family.
I wonder if I know her? 🤣🤣
I used to live near it also , 5 mins walk.
Would your parents have hated me too? They hadn’t even met me! Francis! I was a good boy! Well ish.
These are all so vivid, Dean. Including your own memories. "I just thought her luminous." Just lovely!
Thanks Wendy. I was only three and it was at nursery, but it's as vivid a memory as something that happened yesterday.
I love reading these. Fascinating and they make me feel a bit tearful. Maybe it’s the nostalgia….could be the perimenopause 😅
Maybe it's a the perimenopause and Alan's fondness for sheep?
If you want to write one, or Dan, let me know :)
It always brings a tear to my eye when Alan talks about his relationships with sheep
It made the sheep’s eyes water too
