EDITORS COMMENTS
To Nigel Morris and Leslie Hughes, the old bombed patch at the top of Galston Street in Adamsdown, Cardiff was more than just a vacant lot. In this print captured by Western Mail and Echo in January 1961, we witness a scene that epitomizes childhood innocence and adventure. Despite the wet weather and muddy conditions, these young boys fearlessly embrace their surroundings. With sleeves rolled up and trousers caked with dirt, they immerse themselves in an exhilarating world of play outside their terraced housing. The dilapidated buildings serve as their backdrop as they engage in imaginative games that transport them far from reality. This snapshot encapsulates the resilience of children growing up amidst post-war remnants. It showcases their ability to find joy even in desolate spaces. Their laughter echoes through the rain-soaked streets as they relish every moment spent together. The photograph is a testament to the power of friendship and shared experiences during simpler times. It reminds us all of our own carefree days filled with exploration and discovery. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to an era where muddy work was not just tolerated but celebrated. To Nigel Morris and Leslie Hughes – thank you for reminding us that sometimes it's okay to get dirty; it's how memories are made.
