Caerau Library

A Memory of Caerau.

Me and my brother Norman used to spend most of our time playing snooker at the library. Mr Phil Thomas used to look after it and he, together with my father Billy, taught us how to play. There were 6 tables there. Phil would iron and clean them daily. The place was spotless. I always remember that the top two tables were always covered and you could only play on them if Phil thought you were good enough and wouldn't rip the cloth. I remember Trevor Bailey and Billy Phillips were the top players, along with many more. What fabulous memories I have of those days. Caerau was a fabulous place to grow up and I am proud to have been born and brought up there.
