Remembering Wilbraham and the Storming of the Bastille!
"Here is my memory :
"We would set up a “bastille” (jail) using sticks leaned against a tree - the big beech (?) tree in front of the cabin. One year Uncle George was the person “in jail” - he was inside all the sticks and then we stormed the bastille and broke him out 😄
"Also, Papa would always get a whole wheel of authentic Brie cheese - it was huge and I didn’t like how the Brie tasted - but later I learned to love it! Sometimes we would keep the wooden round box that the Brie cheese came in and we would use it to store other things, like small toys."
` Above memory from Ahsin!
