lovely coming back to the America lane site and meeting some new faces and a couple of old from when I
was a lot younger than I am now.
disappointed that Charlie has not been around when I have been.
my granddad insisted I called him mr bristow but I only called him that when my granddad was around
when he wasn't I called him Charlie.
also been on the inside when my granddad discussed great issues of gardening with his great mate Kenny
wheller.
never could understand how two men could spend so much time discussing the merits of a load of manure
but they did.
there was lots of laughter between them I recall but the actual growing of vegetables was a serious matter
to them both.
I have caught the bug and now I know how they felt
its a wonderful life on an alloment site
