A Lovely Girl And A Bonny Place

It's a bit unfair to say my memory is from 2000, as it actually goes back to when I was born (1980) and only ends last year (2008).

My earliest memories are of being at my Aunty Stella's. She wasn't really an Aunty, just a really old family friend. An amzing woman; she had a long-service medal from the army due to technically going AWOL after the war, and another medal from the Pope for her charity work. Unfortunately she died in about 2003, still sorely missed.

After that I met a girl from the area and spent many happy days with her in the area, in the Denton pub and in the burn. There's a lot of other memories, but most of them a probably a bit dull to others! I hope you have had some good times round there, it's a lovely spot.
