An every day story of ordinary folk who lived in Summervale Ilminster in the 1940's and 1950's.
I have changed the header picture which shows Maureen Kearney and June Wakeham collecting primroses on Herne Hill.
Those little baskets bring back so many memories for me - just so cute.
Primroses grew everywhere and smelt delicious but not as overpowering and heady as the smell of bluebells in the woods in May. We would pick armfuls to carry home and were covered in the white sticky sap from the stems.
I don't have any memory of wild daffodils -
Do You?
