Ten on the Tenth.

I’m actually on holiday this week so I’m pre-posting. 

From the time I was a baby until I was fifteen the only place I ever went on holiday was Butlins in Minehead. I’ve been back a couple times since but it is still my favourite place to go on holiday. Since my mum couldn’t afford to have pictures developed very often the majority of picture she took of our childhood was on our annual trip.

 

So here are ten pictures from my childhood trips.

1. My sister and I on the train. (It’s still there they’ve just moved it inside.)

(We always used to stay in the chalets you can see in the background)

2. My mum and my little brother.

3. Family photo (I think this was printed on a tea-towel we gave my nan.

4. My brother and I in one of the bedrooms

5. The toys we were holding had tapes that you could put in the back that made them talk. They were fun if not a little creepy.

6. Another picture of me in my room.

7. This was taken about thirty seconds before I hit the Canadian Goose that is stood in front of me over the head for trying to steal the bag of bread from me.

8. The giant slide – that’s still there too – just inside.

9. Me with my grandparents.

 

10. And finally my favourite picture. My Mum and me.

 

I still have lots more pictures. I think I may have to make a Butlins album with all these pictures in it.
