Memories Of The Gareloch

A Memory of Garelochhead.

I remember Garelochhead well. I lived in the village. We made big swings with rope over the trees at the back of my house in Dunivard Place - I nearly killed myself on them lol. We played rounders and used to knock door and run - we always got told off but we still done it lol. I played jacks a lot with Nancy Bryce who lived next door. Who remembers jacks? We spent hours playing with them. We also used to go to the pier and run and jump along. Where there was planks of wood missing, we had to jump over them - it was quite dangerous really. I remember one girl didn't jump properly and fell through to the water below. Adults came running up to help her - it was not funny then, but I laugh about it now. I can't remember who the girl was though, if anyone remembers, please post a comment, I would love to hear from anyone from 1958 to 1968.
