Indeed lived first couple of years up the council and my dad would take me up the mountain - think he used to pick berries - used to spend a lot of time running around the Bont football pitch as my dad played there - cards mostly - but a bit off football!
I thought so,..... I wonder if you still have a bit of Welsh? At that time most people in the council could speak Welsh.................... We used to call the berries picked on the mountain. "Windberries," but I think the correct name was Wildberries. .... used to hate picking them off the ground, so bloody small....... anyway glad that you are o.k.
Best of luck, help your daughters with their collection of pets.

That's them Windberries - yes spoke Welsh at first - moved to Llangennech for a couple of years and then became a Jack ( derogatory to my dad) when we moved to Blaen-y-maes to get a council house. I've been told my Dad used to call the bingo in the warehouse buffet on night shift at Velindre - tractor driver known as Springer !

We used to call them 'Wimberries" - would fill pint bottles with them and then go and sell them around the streets as kids.
 
I read somewhere that they have discovered Cactus that has bloomed for the first ever time,......Funny that I have a bloody Cactus that has flowered for the first time in over 30 years, had a bloody shock when I saw it

Nice one Vic I like a bit of gardening when time too.
Just bought a 14 x 20ft polytunel for allotment I'm going to start building when weather gets better also resite my green house and put up a few raised beds, so it'll be a good hobby for family that I'll have more time for when I retire in quite a few years yet but home grown organic grub in mean time is great.
