Next day after the snow - skipping

15 February 2004   

 

Next day after the snow - skipping

colourful playgrounds nowadays

There wasn't any colour in my school yard, there was even ruined outside urials, which we weren't allowed to play in. Which we did. And were told off about it.

This playground is nothing like my old school, Aman Infants, Godreaman, Aberdare, circa 1966-1970.

skipping comes easy now tricks too

We skip all the way home. "Stop Daddy!" We wait till a big knot of parents and children walk past. And she shows me sideways skipping. We carry on. 3 minutes later "Stop Daddy!" Another knot of parents and kids wedges past. I stand back, this is a big knot. She shows me fast skipping.

First out. Last home.
