No problems as far as I am concerned. laugh#

I remember a few of those folks, called on Essie on the coop rounds. She used to make bread, in an oven over an oil stove. So I had a cuppa and a piece of her bread, out of politeness. She was a sweet lady who had a tough life. I admired her very much.

Willy was an asset to the parish. He was a lovely chap. I seem to have spent most of my teens in the front room in Willy s playing euchre. That room is pictured on one of Brenda Wootton s album covers (Boy Jan perhaps?) and that picture is exactly as I remember it. We had a record player in there and used to keep a collection of records in the cupboard to play in the evenings. Never drank under-age in there, lemonade only. When we went through from the front room to the hatch to be served Willy would always greet me Hullo boy; how s your Granny? . He used to let us youngsters go along to his own private sitting room on Thursdays to watch TOTP. Willy supported most things going on in Pendeen and was a lovely benevolent man.
