Growing up Near Temple

I remember Temple school. The Knights Templar play. Christmas plays. The youth club on Friday evenings. Friday I'm in love. I was. The glen. Scottish country dancing. The human skull in Anna's cellar. Diving off the waterfall. Baking and Christmas parties at the Dunlop's. The quilt. The Fete and fancy dress. Exploring in the woods. Getting lost in the woods. The conker tree. Bonfires on Guy Fawkes night. Candlelit carols, mulled wine and mincemeat pies and playfights with the boys. The Celidh. Dens. Camping and campfires. The boys. The girls. The hall. The boys and girls. Our group. The phonebox. The SLOW sign. The midges in Summer and the freezing winters. Getting snowed in. Sledging at shilling hill. These are just a few of many memories. I loved Temple.
