A
BEAUTIFUL MEMORY
Erm
... the house that I've ever lived in was one that I lived in
with my grandparents when I was a child. And the name of the house was
Crosslands. And I have some very happy of Crosslands.
It was, it seemed so to me as a child. And it had a lovely living
room with a piano in it and a lovely sort of hall with lots of carpets and
and antiques and so on. And there was a
room, it was the
drawing room, and we only used it on Sundays, or erm when the vicar came
for tea, or Christmas Day or Easter Day, and I was - used to be about
this room
because it had the best furniture in it but it was covered up with sheets
- it was as if all the furniture was clothes - and it seemed to me
ridiculous that we couldn't enjoy this beautiful furniture all the week
through really.
And probably my favourite room was the kitchen. It had a lovely red flagstone
floor, which was always highly , and an Aga, you know one of those
big that heats the whole room so it was always warm there, and
there was a kind of clothes-horse above it that we used to hang all our
clothes on, and it was just - it was lovely. It was a very warm room
with bread and - my grandmother used to make ice cream and we'd eat
it in there and ... there was a vegetable garden from there so I
spent a lot of time in the vegetable garden picking peas and eating them -
my grandmother used to get really with me because I used to pick all
the vegetables and the fruit for our meals and then I'd eat of them,
because they so delicious coming fresh from the garden.
Now, I went back to it a few years ago and it was a big mistake. They've
modernised it inside, they've got of those lovely old fireplaces ...
have just gone. And they've knocked a wall down so the drawing room and
the living room have become one big modern plastic of room.
But I think what me most about it was the feeling that the house
had , it had become smaller and that my memory of this lovely large
warm comfortable house had turned into an old house with modernised rooms
inside it. And it me a lesson really, that you can't go back on the
past and it. But there's a beautiful memory there.
