My Childhood Days in the Home Counties of England, 1966-70

This is original unedited digitised cine film footage of my childhood days in the Home Counties, England from 1966 to 1969.

Included in this film are :

• Me in a dodgem / bumper car driven by my middle sister's 'boyfriend' David. I believe this was at Wicksteed Park
• My middle sister and 'boyfriend' on the merry-go-round / carousel
• My sixth birthday party - I'm pretty sure it was my sixth as there appear to be 6 candles on the cake (pity it's so dark)
• Jumping to when I was about 10 this is me and my middle sister picking the apples from our little apple tree. My most excellent pet dog Scampie was there in possibly his only appearance on film.
• Me at the District School Sports, aged about 9, running in the relay team for my school. I ran and I ran and I ran... but who knows where I finished (I'm pretty sure it wasn't first).
