I cannot remember the exact year or town in the Rhondda Valley, Wales that my brother Nick Richardson and I lived. I was only 3 or 4 years old. I have slight memories... of a couple that we lived with..they were fantastic! My father Bill [Taffy] Richardson [Deal Bus Driver] was from Pontygwiath. I had numerous relatives there. Can remember a day Nick and I sat on a hill[?] sensed someone walking towards us, looked over and it was our Mum coming from Deal to see us!!
My  pal Stanley Ponting lived in Newton Street, Abercanaid. I visited there in 1960 and 1980, and more recently his daughter, after conferring with me, has fulfiulled her long held desire to see where her dad lived during his evacuation in WW2. Other boys including Roy Caterick, Norman Smissen, Ray Kennedy, Roy Partington, Ernest Cakebread and his brother all spent time in the Merthyr Valley. Memories both good and bad flood back to mind.
