I popped down to Washington to see Mam tonight and after the visit I decided to relive a few old memories and I visited the two old houses that I grew up in, one in Donwell and the other in Albany.
Donwell hasn't changed at all but I guess I have some recent memories of that village to mix up the old ones. Albany looked a mess, it seemed to be much more crowded in the street than I remember it and I was really surprised that the garden in Albany is exactly as it was when we moved out.
I was a little saddened to see a place that has so many happy childhood memories look so shabby, and it was strange, so strange that the whole street seemed so small.
