This is “Morgan Le Fay”
As I get older technological advances never cease to amaze me. Then I think back to my childhood and think how different things were. I have early memories of listening to the rather crackly wireless and then going to a friend’s house to watch television when her family was the first in the village to own a set. I used to be enthralled by the serials such as The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Tom Brown’s Schooldays and Heidi.
I was brought up on a farm and from a very young age I used to hang around to try and get a ride on one of the very large Clydesdales when they were being put out to the field after a hard day’s ploughing. I’d also watch the cows being milked by hand, listening to the swish, swish of the milk, before the pitchers were filled in readiness for the villagers to collect their daily pints.
At dusk the paraffin lamps were filled and set out in readiness for the falling darkness as there was still no electricity in the farmhouse.
