EDITORS COMMENTS
Conkers - Gareth Bourne, aged 10, and his sister Janine, aged six, playing conkers near the threatened trees. Llanelli. 31st October 1978". In this nostalgic print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to a simpler time in the late 1970s. Two young children, Gareth Bourne and his sister Janine, can be seen engrossed in a timeless childhood game of conkers. With strings tightly wound around their chosen horse chestnut seeds, they eagerly compete against each other under the shade of towering trees. The image captures the innocence and joy that comes with outdoor play. Their youthful faces radiate excitement as they carefully aim their swings at one another's prized conker. The autumnal setting adds an extra layer of charm to this snapshot in time; fallen leaves carpeting the ground while golden sunlight filters through branches overhead. But there is more than meets the eye in this photograph – it tells a story beyond just a playful moment between siblings. The presence of "threatened trees" hints at an underlying narrative about conservation or development encroaching upon nature's wonders. As we admire this beautifully preserved piece of history from Western Mail Archive, let us reflect on our own cherished memories of childhood games and appreciate how such simple pleasures can connect us across generations.
