Fluids Lane
A Memory of Oadby.
A demi paradise, Fluids Lane was at the far end of the village towards Glen Road, I think. It contained a stream, and woods. What wonderful memories I have of that place, nothing can compare, we played for hours damming the stream, climbing trees etc., away from home all day. The lane went on to the fields that housed the air force base, or aerodrome, and also the German prisoners of war that we befriended, hard to believe, but they were free to go to the pictures in the village. That was a little earlier, maybe around 1942 or so. I wish I could hear more about Fluids Lane.

But as a boy the old Nissen huts were where we had the most fun and interest - digging up odd coins, metal and even pictures and newspaper. I know exactly the 5 bar gate and the buttercups. As you say fond fond memories.
