Growing Up

A Memory of Riddings.

My Father was the farm manager for Mr Oakes at the park farm. I spent a very happy childhood growing up there. Two brothers and one sister.What a childhood we have my dad loved that farm .My old mum would invite every trader in for a cup of tea even Mr Oakes would be in the kitchen .I had loads of chores to do when I came home from the school. When I see that farm yard now all I can think of was my play ground. The old water trough use to be full of goldfish . We arrived there 1955 some of the best years of my life what memories and the seven stars with my brothers and dad
