Holidays
Holidays! - What holidays? If we went anywhere it was to visit my grandparents in Cardiff. I loved staying with my granny and granddad but did not care much for the endless rounds of visiting relatives from both sides of the family. My father was in the RAF too and he maintained that when he was posted abroad - that was our holiday. (Egypt -1951/2, Singapore 1958/60 and Cyprus 1963/66 - I left home to join up in Jan 64).
I cannot remember any of my scaley brat school friends from the 50s and early 60s that went 'On holiday'.
