Our Sleepovers

Created by Sharoane 8 years ago
They were the bestest ever childhood memories I have and would not trade them to be a millionaires I loved sleeping at your home Nana, we use to have nice times.

I remember the kitchen when you home baked, oh warm bread fadgies, with a little knob of butter melting in. I absolutely adore marzipan, you use to let me eat the trimmings, when you were decorating your cake, gramps sometimes would make toast on a fork ha ha in front of the fire, he use to smoke his woodbine cigarette and sometimes fall asleep.

Remember nana when granddad use to make me a chalice out of the silver paper of his cigarette packet ha ha and when he fell asleep you use to tickle his bushy eyebrows. It was so funny he use to twitch, then you would do it again and he would wake and say the usual Charlie "quote" get away with yer" chuckle I love them times.
Before bedtime you would say "watch out for Bobs van" the big blue van sold everything, I would wait and you would give me pennies to go for sweets for school on the morning.

Then you would me to bed, tuck me in all snug in that heavy warm Eiderdown and tell me happy stories, and you loved me, then go downstairs. I remember the clock boy was it loud for a little alarm clock with illumnous pointers I can still hear it in my head today, chuckle.

I just simply miss you Nana and wish I was that little girl again then you would be here and I could keep you forever and fight with the angels not to take you, but you were the best and he had to have you I guess, I hated the lord for a very long time, I could not understand why he had to take you from me, he knew you were taking care of me for a reason, but I guess you were too good for this world and sometimes we have to hurt so you have the best that you deserved, I just miss you Nana x xx
