Albert Park In The Fifties

A Memory of Middlesbrough.

Dad used to take us in a rowing boat on the lake. We had to take turns rowing and we were only 4, 5 and 6 years of age. Not sure health and safety would approve now!!! I remember being called in eg "number 2 your time is up". Great memories.

Comments & Feedback

I also remember the guy with the loud hailer/microphone on the boating lake. I don`t think he had a local accent, my favorite comment from him being "get off that ****** island"
