I loved to play on the swings, roundabouts and giant slide at Eastleigh recreation ground.
The long polished brass slide was fun to try to walk up, slide down roll things down or pee down.
I overheard a friend of mums who was expecting a baby – she said
“It is wonderful now they can tell if you are pregnant by just peeing on a slide”.
This amazed me that our humble recreation ground had such a magical slide! (This is a true tale!)
We remember the excitement of seeing this postcard at Wallasey post office and realising that the black car was Dad's old Daimler. We could make out the number with a magnifying glass at the time. We recently returned from Scotland on a trip to revisit some old haunts and see how things had changed. Some were good and some were disappointing. These photos remind us of how things were when we grew up in Wallasey.
