Probably My Earliest Memory

My grandparents used to run the Post Office at Carthew, I remember my Dad telling me that's where he grew up, but my earliest memories are of my grandparents living just down the road from there in Charlestown in a lovely old stone cottage, and best memory of all was the wonderful teas Granny used to give as kids. Splits and cream and jam, followed by jelly and ice cream..............aaahhhhhhhh

Mrs Abbots Minah Bird

My sister Linda worked in Carthew shop back in the late 60s and early 70s. Her boss was a women called Mrs Abbot. She had a Minah Bird that she kept in the kitchen but it could always be heard from the shop. It was a very good talker and was very prone to swearing. Mark Scott.
