My Chilhood Visits To Mountain Ash

A Memory of Mountain Ash.

My maternal family hail from Mountain Ash, my paternal from Ogmore Vale. I always spent my school holidays 'going home', as my nan would say.I loved it, and go back each year now. I loved the ice-cream shop (it was Italian) and nan always bought me a knickerbocker glory - yum! Never saw them in England. Nan also took me to see Laurel and Hardy films at a big hall. The pit was there then, and grandad O'keefe worked there. How I loved those days and Mountain Ash. Christine Budd, Marlow, Bucks.

I remember the Italian ice cream shop I too went back every year in the school holidays. I was evacuated there during the war. Lots of happy memories. Did you go to the swimming baths? Gilly North 2019
