Catching Minnows

A Memory of Islip.

I remember my boyhood years in Islip with affection. A favourite summer passtime was catching minnows in the Gallos Brook (affectionately known locally as the Weston Brook, purely because it came to Islip from Weston on the green). We'd be there for hours with our jam jars and a favourite spot was the bridge just outside the village which carried the Oddington road over the brook. It always seemed the most productive spot.
