I was born in 61 and remember being in hospital with a serious illness when I was 18 months old, I vividly remember my parents visiting me and taking me out into a sun filled garden.

I remember climbing on a wooden bench in our back garden when I was three years old and my foot going through the wooden slats trapping me. Mum was calling over the fence for our neighbour to help her and he had his hearing aid switched off and couldn't hear her.

I too remember my first day at school, I can see myself being sat at my first ever desk and the little gill opposite me with blond hair and a turquoise dress called Yvonne.

My family marvel at melon term memories.

I have such vivid memories of school days and being a kid and ****ager and of situations, it's like replaying video clips of those times, I can see, smell and feel those moments, same goes for so many Albion matches from the early days for me in the early to late 70's.
