[Edna Bold had four siblings: a twin brother, a set of twin siblings, and a 'solo' brother]. As soon as we could walk and talk and be trusted out alone, we played on the main road or in the streets adjacent where our Grandfather, Grandmother, Uncles, Aunts, Cousins, friends lived. We loved the short terraces of black, brick houses, whose doorsteps and window sills were yellow-stoned, buttercup bright […] We loved the smooth, grey flags where we walked, ran, skipped or danced to a barrel organ. […] We played a variety of racing, catching games, ring games, singing games. |
