Every Sunday!

A Memory of Formby.

Yes! every Sunday for years during the summer holidays this is where you would find me, my mam, dad, 3 brothers, 2 sisters, aunties, uncles, cousins, nanny and grandad. We would park the car what seemed like miles away and we would trek over the sand dunes to the 'beach' - I use the term loosely as when we used to go in the 1960s ,we would have to dodge oil slicks, broken glass, burnt mattress springs and then the jelly fish before we could paddle in the murky waters! Who knows what pollution there was, we just took it for granted  that this is what a beach looked like, years on we would think back with horror!
The sand dunes were great though, we would spend hours jumping off them!
