Sparked a Memory for you?

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

I would be about 8 at the time, and a picnic on the Island was a rare treat as dad worked and holidays were usually spent with my brother in Leicestershire, was it me, or was it always sunny then...The new school was built the year befor I move up to Ysgol Dafydd Hughes ( as it was known then) and I remember HRH coming to open the school and I know that someone took a cine-film of it, but I have had no joy in locating a copy, anyone out there know of one knocking around...?
I remember fishing almost everyday during the summer school holidays for mackerel.
