Not Every Memory is a good One.

Not Every Memory is a good One.

This one is perhaps more for those who have moved a way form home and have like me, some very distant memoirs that are starting to surface. Sometime as they do the waters of time cloud them and has they clear we either smile longingly for our lost childhoods or we cry for the people gone from life hardly remembered....

I came home a couple of weeks ago for the first time in 20 years, although its 30 years since we left. When I arrived back up Fern Gore I met and talked with a very nice lady (good looker) who now lives in my old house…Although she grew up in other areas of Accy she knew of some of the places that I played in around the area and the names of some of those I played with.

Two of those people (of my Age - 44) have died, I knew nothing of there deaths until this month. One Ivor Lloyd was a School mate who past away six years ago (A kind lady on this site was able to confirm this for me) but I still don’t know why. And a childhood mate who grew up on the same street has me, Butch Ball. This guy was either very good or very bad, but always a good friend.

The point of this Thread is to give those who wish to, the opportunity to remember and share some of those memories that until now have lain dormant or forgotten and perhaps more importantly, seeks confirmation of some memories of those who where with us at the time……after all, not everything we may remember was how it actually was…
