Brian Jenkins tells his story of life as a child, living in a gas board cottage with no electricity or bathroom, sandwiched between a refuse tip and gasworks. The story takes us through the trials and tribulations of life growing up in the South Wales valleys, with the successes and failures of school, college and work, interlinked with the joys and sadness of family life. We meet an array of wonderful and diverse characters. This heart-warming, tear-jerking and entertaining autobiography is a personal record of Brian's life, not only encapsulating his wonderful memories, but showing how he has become the husband, father, grandfather and indeed the man, he now is.
