Nostalgia
A Memory of Llanelli.
Greenfield Road was known as Greenfield Villas before World War II. I lived and grew up in 4 Greenfield Villas with my grandparents, Mr & Mrs W A Davies, my mother, Nancy, and sister, Gertrude, from 1937 until 1947. My father was away in the war and we only saw him on leave. I remember going to Lakefield School where my first teacher was a Miss Thomas. I also remember going around the market with my grandfather and to many shops because he was the Inspector of Shops during the war. I also remember well Rabaiottis Ice cream parlour around the corner in Station Rd and a shop which sold Eynons pies further up the road. The road was renamed Murrey Street at some time, but this may have been after the war. I also remember Saturday morning in the Odeon Cinema where we had to pay 6d or 3d to get in for childrens' pictures. After I left to live with my parents in Bristol in 1948, I was full of heraith and went back for every holiday to stay with my grandparents. I loved the old town soo much I just could not get enough of it and though the place has changed so much, I still visit at every opportunity. Ymlaen Llanelli.
