We Were 'the Young Ones'

A Memory of Sheffield.

This photgraph brought instant memories of when, as a teenager, I regularly walked with friends, Barry, George, Eric, and others, from Portland Street (Near the Royal Infirmary) to Crookes Valley Park. There we hired racquets and balls for an hour, and played tennis on the court to the right of the bowling green shown in the photograph.
We were 'The Young Ones', full of energy and careering around the court, whilst the old guys played bowls close by, and  the park keepers made sure we didn't get out of hand.
Now I'm one of the old guys, but the memories come back afresh on seeing the photograph.

My husband and I had our wedding reception here in Western Park April 3rd 1961, and years later my husband's cousin opened a restaurant here along with a friend.I can't remember what year that would be. It was a lovely venue for our wedding and I have wonderful memories of our day.I remember how some guests went on boats, I might add, without me.
Happy memories.
