Ray's memories.......... or at least some of them

My earliest memory is of 'going over my wilkies' on a mattress in a house we lived in just outside Tighnabruaich. I think I remember feeding my little brother jam from a spoon there too.
Tighnabruaich was where I was born, Kames to be precise. The house I was born in is still there. It's called Seaview. I was born on the 27th of January 1954 at three o'clock in the afternoon. My mum tells me I was very sleepy. Both my grans were there when I was born. My dad was in the navy and away at sea, so heard the news of his first child's birth by telegram.
