Nostalgia
A Memory of Prestwich.
Living in Vine St, behind the Heaton Park Cinema, and going to the British 'Bulldog' school. My mum bringing me hot cocoa during recess time, passing it over the school wall. Going into Heaton Park when the sirens went, to the shelters and singing "Knick Knack Paddy Wack" to pass the time. Going to my dad's joinery shop on the corner of Henry St and Peach St and knocking nails in wood. Taking the ration book to buy toffees. The 'rag and bone' man coming and buying the soap stone for the front steps. The coal man delivering coal and putting it down the coal hole. Yes, happy memories. I could go on and on and on. Thanks for letting me reminise. Now living in Canada, but UK will always be my home.
