Saturdays

A Memory of Ferndale.

I went to Ferndale nearly every Saturday with my Mum and brother to visit my grandparents and my Great Aunt and Uncle. My grandparents, the Gambles, lived in Brynhyfryd and we would get off the bus at the bottom of the hill on the Strand and walk up the steep steps to the house. We would spend lunchtime and early afternoon there and then we would walk down to New Street and spend the late afternoon having tea with my Great Aunt and Uncle Pope. Then we would walk to the end of New Street and catch a bus back to Cardiff by the garage. I always enjoyed these visits because I used to get at least 2 sets of pocket money at the end of the visits! I should be a millionaire but I'd rather have my memories!
