As A Child

I remember we lived in Peter Street, where I first learned to ride a bike, my elder sister giving me a push at the top of the hill...stopping was the problem! Our house was on the right side going down the hill. Across the road were open fields where we would fossick for Roman pottery shards with my father. At the top of the street there was a conker tree which entertained my friends and I for hours. Our family moved to Australia and I remembered other families were emigrating too.
