A summer holiday at a big old house in the country owned by my Dad's employer. A huge place nice and cool and wonderful things for a boy to explore inside and on the grounds, with a lake as well.
Bloody nice.

When I was a child it would have taken more than a day to fly to Australia (this is before the invention of the jet engine), and we couldn't even afford to leave the country, never mind fly half way round the globe! No, our pleasures were of a much more simple nature. As children (there were 4 of us) we were taken to visit friends who lived in the tiny village of Springfield in Fife (that's in Scotland). The family we stayed with lived in a cottage which did not even have electricity. When the sun went down, the oil lamps came on. Needless to say, there was no television, never mind computers. We entertained ourselves all day playing in the farm yard accross the road, or with the children who had a pony and let us take turns riding it. We spent hours outside, playing and exploring and just doing what children do best - making good use of our imaginations. We were happy, we were content, we were healthy and when we fell into bed, we slept soundly. Oh, and we were also cheap to run!
