wick 1981


This was the view out of our upstairs window - and still is as my nan still lives in this house! She's been there since the 1930s. The cars date this picture well, the shop names have changed but not much else. This used to be an excellent place for shooting people with the air gun as they came out of Wick Trades and Labour Club, to the far right in this picture.

We also used to superglue fake wage packets to the pavement outside the house and watch the mugs from here. Once we attached a fox stole to a string and pulled it off our front wall through the letterbox. People were terrified. We grew out of this when we hit 40, sadly.
