Playing Cricket at St. Faiths

St. Faith's Primary school over there in Glengoffe in Noth East Saint Catherine had a small cricket field and I can remember lots of matches being played on it in the seventies and eighties. Most public holidays and on Saturdays would find matches being played on it. Sometimes we would have visiting teams playing against local teams. Some of the matches ended in controversy. I remember this particuar batsman refusing to walk after being gived out leg before wicket. He claimed that the umpire dudn't know anything about the game and that he was a senior cup player.

Scout and Cadet Troops

No matter how hard I tried, my mother and grndmother were steadfast against me becoming either a scout or a cadet. The fear stemmed from my grand uncle going to the First World War. There was a scout troop at St. Faith's Primary School and one at Grateful Hill Methodist Churc. There was a cadet core at St. Mary's where I attended school. Incidentaly I attendeed church at Grateful Hill and St. Faiths was in close proximity to where I lived. Sometimed in the early seventies, I saw one my cousins. He had just fled from the United States. He had gone there to study dentistry only to be drafted into the army to fight in Viet Nam.
