A REALLY OLD CHESTNUT!


While passing the conker trees outside the cemetery lodge, on Wrawby Road, yesterday afternoon, it struck me how times have changed down the years.
Back in the 1960s the area underneath these trees would have been buzzing with Brigg kids trying to get at the fallen conkers, or waiting for others to drop.
Wind the clock on 40 years to yesterday, and there was no-one in sight. Presumably today's 'youth' was at home playing computer games.
