Book Cover & Preview Text
The Beginning I was born in the year of forty seven, With National health my mum was in heaven. With me in her arms as a baby, My mum said no more not even maybe? My up bringing was hard and tough, Money was scarce and not enough. I always had a clean nappy, And our family were always very happy. Life could be easy or very hard Whether you where dealt a good or bad card, I never knew how my mum was able, To get food on the dinner table. My trousers were so short for school, I was looked on as if an idiot or fool. It was not till I reached the age eleven, That I wore long trousers oh! What heaven. I was born in the afternoon at five thirty, The day was dull and rather dirty. To a mother and father so bold, For me my life was about to unfold.
