Bluebells & Ginger Beer At Slinden Woods
I am now 74, but to this day I have such lovely memories of trips with my Girl Guide troop going on the bus to Slindon Woods. Across the road from where the bus would stop was a lovely little shop, where we were allowed to buy a bottle of ginger beer. Oh how I still remember that wonderful taste. Then to make our visit complete we went into the woods which were filled with bluebells, we picked to our heart's content, life seemed so sweet and simple then, I have so many memories that I treasure. I wish I could see Slindon Woods just once more, but that's not possible now since I live in the US, but those memories keep me warm when life seems so cold and empty.

Hello, I will be visiting Slindon Woods with a friend tommorow as it is Mother's Day and she has passed away but Slindon Woods and bluebells were a fond memory. I will be taking photos as it is amazing at this time of year and will be happy to share them with you if you would like?
