60`s Memories - Folk song with images.

I remember the pram wheels - if you turned too quick - used to get your foot stuck or turn and the whole lot would go over!
We used to play "marleys" with "fourers" - the big ones.
When I was a lad, all the terraced houses near my Nans were boarded up, many built in the 1860`s: broken cast iron drain pipes, roofs falling off.
Old street lights where we played with a rope and turned them into swings.
There was a massive dump of bricks and rubble where the old railway had been and abandoned cars, like Vauxhall Victor`s and Humber Sprites.
We played in the old signal box and went down "the black pad" watching trains go by and our loco-shed books.
Loved black-jacks and fruit salads but fizzers were my favourite.

I think I've taken part or seen every one of the activities on that video. Great memories and hardly a car about to spoil your games.
