No 13 Autobiography
PICTORIAL AUTOBIOGRAPHY
I have decided to post an image per week depicting a certain memory I have of my life : together with a short narrative
In this episode I would have been about 13 years old. This is the allotments at the rear of my old house in Gabalfa, Cardiff. I recall it being a lot more overgrown. Anyway one afternoon we decided to explore the allotments, I climbed the fence (which I believe was about 100 foot tall) I jumped off into the undergrowth and landed on an old fire-grate fender. It had an exposed 6 inch nail which when straight through the bottom of my wellie and out of the top. An ambulance was called and they did not remove the fender as I was not bleeding much. I remember travelling to hospital with this enormous piece of wood attached to me. Then due to the risk of infection from the rusty nail they cut open my foot from top to bottom and cleaned the wound. I still, after 50 odd years, have the scar to remind me.
