Today’s youth have possessions but are insecure and unhappy. They take today’s wonders for granted, but have never ridden a real 'puff puff' steam train, or seen brewers drays with beautiful horses, or played hopscotch. This is a nostalgic account of my life. I hope writing this will make me more tolerant of youth and the bright young sparks will understand us old 'uns better.
