Childhood

By this point I was ten years old. I rememder going fishing with a net on a pole for sticklebacks just round the back of my house which was in Coging Close, there was a huge area of fields with a stream running by it. I also remember that just round the corner from us was an old run-down farm but it still worked, you could go and buy milk for 5 pence and eggs, and it had a huge apple tree in a field at the side of it that the old woman wuold let you help yourselves to.
