Revisit To My Home
A Memory of Bilston.
February was a very sad time for all my family. There was a light at the end of a very sad day.
My youngest son took me to Wednesbury, Old Park Rd, Dudley, and my home 5 Wells Rd.
The day was brilliant, parked right outside my family home. Went running over the bandstand and running up to the memorial cross. Looked across the trees - there it was - when we were kids ,looking over the bushes we could see dad on the doorstep cigarette in hand.
The Bird in Hand pub wasn't there anymore, Dad's pub, and where we used to take the empties back to buy sweets from the shop. The shop is still there, but no one lives there anymore. Running up that clay slope up to my safe play was so brilliant I can't tell you how it made me feel.
Memories are irreplaceable, save them, you will need them one day.
