Heres one to stir the memories, were did you learn to swim, for me it was in the ressy, not to be confused with the brickhill, which was the one being filled in as a tip. or land fill as they call it now, I got one of my feet badly burned on there, standing on what I thought was a pile of plastic labels, they were, but also they were on fire underneath, just after the ressy in the 40s, were pit rooks, where we used to pick bingy and coal, just to eke out the bit of coal we were allowed after the war
