I was born in a council house so we always had a bathroom,but people still thought council houses were for poor folk,,,I remember we got a 12"tele and it seemed the whole street came in to watch the coronation,,,
All the kids used play out in safety and never destroyed other peoples propety, we to congregate under a gaslamp on dark evenings,and we would tell ghost stories, John Christie the murderer ,was going at that time and i remember being petrified when an older boy said that he was hiding behind one of the houses...they also made up an imaginary baddy called Flannelfoot.....they were good times
