A wanderer returns !!!
After several years in the hinterland of East Lancashire, I have returned to the sunnier climes of West Yorkshire - Halifax, to be precise.
Pina suffered a heart attack early last year and our sons, who live in Halifax and Brighoouse, thought it would be a good idea if we lived nearer to them and they didn't have to trail to Nelson.
We went on the housing list and, with Pina's medical history, we were allocated a 2-bedroomed ground floor flat in Illingworth, 3 miles from Halifax centre.
It was a good move.
Pina is now in good health and we see a lot more of the family.
I am still in touch with several residents and former residents of Sutton-in-Craven and this morning my cousin, Ronnie Pritchard to give me the sad news that Mary Walker had died.
I already knew because Jane and Alan had let me know.
I worked with Mary at Greenroyd Mills when I was serving my apprenticeshiice to hear from anyone who remembers me.p.
Now I am back in Yorkshire I will certainly be paying regular visits to the village website.
It would be n |
