When I was growing up in Blackburn, we used to have happy times playing - even though there was a war on.
Food was rationed, but mum always managed to make good wholesome meals.
Cinemas ... Blackburn had lots ... the centre alone had seven!
Family and neighbours all helped one another. If someone had a bit of something special which was rare, then we shared what we had. I went to school ... Park Road Primary and Audley Secondary Modern and I have good memories of these years.
