Well we moved to the new house and it was very big compared to the old one, it had a garage under the house then on the first floor was the living room and a dining room, kitchen and hallway, the next floor had the bathroom, mum and dads room and two small bedrooms. Then if you went up again there was an attice bedroom with a dormer window.
My auntie lived 2 doors away and we spent a lot of time at her house, she looked after us in the school holidays and after school. It was fun at her house but I remember meal times were not good, we got the basics but there were so many of us that it was like 2 tins of beans and a can of water added to make it go round. Big piles of bread and butter to share at and one thing i remember most of all was on sundays she used to do roast potatoes that were mega yummy, especially with lots of salt on them.
I didnt really see much of mum or dad as they were at work and by the time they came home and we had finished playing it was literally time for bed.
On weekends we would all meet up there were lots of kids by us and set off to play, we were always out wandering somewhere. We used to go to the graveyard which was very near and collect conkers in autumn, in summer we would head down to the river for a swim or up past the local golf club to the canal.
It was probably around this time that I became aware of boys ......
