Weekends and holidays to us were a excuse to get out of the meddas always walking although occational lift when hitch hiking usually with the cooksies from next door .Half day adventure would take us into town although favourite was south and into countryside taking in canal at side of radcliffe rd through Gamston Bassingfield Tollerton Holme Pierpont before lake built back then these places where mainly farms and narrow country lanes and a source for the following Blackberries Gooseberries Apples Pears Plums Mushrooms Tomatoes these things were sometimes earnt sometimes nicked we were chased by farmers a time or two had to be careful cos me dad drove for Hovringham Gravels at Holme Pierpoint and if he caught me my ears would be ringing for a week needless to say when we got home with our booty they were always reward for our hard labour Mushrooms would usually be sold to Rosses Greengrcers corner of wilford grove and kirkwhite st .Where did you roam for your adventures.

Did anyone ever go to the NHS dentist on Chaucer St it was one of the worst places i visited as a child there was no soft music or books/toys there was a very dark building there was staff that barked at you staff that forced a mask over your face that put you to sleep when i eventually left the building iwas spitting blood clots it took 20 years to get over my phobia of dentists funny thing was in those days you were supposed to repect them in the same way you would respect your doctor and some of them hated working class kids. so many things then would be labelled abuse today.
