School Days

I went to Llwynderw Senior School. We used to spend our dinner money in town at Tuckers or in a cafe. The cafes used to do lovely steamed pies.  When I came to Watford one day I was asked for an English coffee where I worked, he said it was made with water not milk. In Maesteg in the cafe we had lovely coffee.

Oooohhh, Tuckers the bakers!! I've never forgotten the lovely smell of bread baking if you went down Llynfi Lane - Sunny Lucky Lane my sister and I called it because it was always sunny and there was a blacksmith opposite the back of Tuckers, aways shoeing horses. There was the ambulance station there too - one ambulance, and the driver always seemed to be hosing it. Great, happy mremories. I wonder what cafe you went to? There was The Valley cafe, a couple of Bellies and a Spagners - don't know if those spellings are right or not. Were there any others?
