Alan Blight
A Memory of Gilfach Goch.
I was born at 15 Scotch Row and named Alan Blight in 1927. My dad was William John and my mother was Mary Ann nee Suter. I had two younger brothers, Richard and Vincent. I went to Gilfach Goch mixed school and remember my standard 5 teacher, Miss Evelyn James. I can still quote the poems that she taught me 80 years ago! I worked at the Britannic mine after my RAF service finished in 1948. I met my wife Majorie on the last bus from Tonypandy! I have lived in Kent from 1958 and have three daughters and six grandchildren. I have dictated this to my daughter as technology has left me behind!
