2025-08-06 (Day 218) The Woodend


I found myself outside some of the haunts of my youth today. I lived just across the road from The Woodend pub, and spent many a happy evening there in my late teens and early twenties. Next to that is now a nursery; when I lived there it was Willy Combes’ Skip Hire – and a close friend lived a couple of doors along from that (out of shot).

Times change, of course, and there has been quite a bit of change in the area near here. But it was fun to go back and see it for the first time in a while.
