Early Childhood

A Memory of Harborough Magna.

My name is Linda Lygo (nee Moore). My dad worked at Postlewaits Farm as a labourer and me mum and my brother Nicky lived in the house that were owned by the farm. I went to Harborough Magna School but cannot remember the teacher's names. I moved to Longlawford at about five years old and have been here ever since. However, nostalgia takes me back there often. I and my daughter tried to take my grandson to the bridge over the train track but there is now no access and we go to the canal, a place where we often went to as a child. I pass the house we lived in and have shown my family where I lived. My mum worked as a cleaner at the local pub and we always went with her we got free orange juice and cake. Those were the days...
