That Reminds Me - Summer Camping in 1960s Milford Haven
Jeff Dunn recalls youthful camping adventures in and around Milford Haven during the early 1960s, including childhood nights in homemade camps, failed attempts to camp on the Gunkle, and a fortnight at Strawberry Hill near Little Haven. He describes beach football, swimming, pub games, music, camp food and comic mishaps, including strong winds, sunstroke and improvised outdoor living. The memories are set against major events and popular songs of the era, but the central theme is the carefree joy and enduring warmth of growing up in Pembrokeshire.
