That’s not Heolddu…

Very interesting. I'd like to visit there sometime. I'm told Stevenson wrote Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde in bed. The bedroom was upstairs at the back of the house facing the trees.

I thought this would be silly but it's actually very good. It speaks to us who have fallen through the cracks of the world and never found real happiness.

My mate Mason lived in Bargoed for a year when he was on the run from the police in Christchurch. They found him eventually and the mayoress of Bargoed banned him from the whole town.

I had a very haunted house in Caerphilly when I was growing up. Its a horrible experience and its effects have stayed with the whole family to this day. Ive been seeking closure ever since because it makes you feel insane.

Johnny!

It looks like the end of the world

Hi - We're doing an episode on poltergeists and would love to include your story as an case study for Gwent. Before I go ahead I just wanted to confirm that you're happy for us to discuss your experiences? Everything that has happened is absolutely fascinating, especially that fact that you've recorded your memories and those of your family in so much detail.

Brilliant! We gotta take up a collection to get you into a recording studio to record this!

Love it!!!

Can you attempt a second version including the economic claspe and being on the run from the red hulk officer.

The lonely man The lonely man That's all I am That's all I am I go From place to place Alone Nowhere to stay Nowhere to go No friends No one I know So I will stay All by myself And all alone I need to find I place to hide I must control The beast inside Until I find a way To be free I'm so afraid To find true love Because Of all I am So I will stay All by myself And all alone I'm so alone

You’re hilarious

There were amateur boxing matches im the stud in the 60s.

I used to walk down that backlane going home from Bargod Grammar

I was at the Grammar. Left in 1970. Also went to Bargoed North Sec. Modern from 1967 to 68.

He had me in the office for not wearing a cap, also out of school hours. Some idiot had just stolen my cap, and I was chasing the thief out of a backlane when Ceri sails past in his Wolseley Hornet. That was back about 1969. Didn't know Ceri was a JP. I once had the misfortune to visit his Ystrad Mynach bungalow. He managed to be a bit more welcoming that time, but I seemed to remember that he asked why I wasnt doing homework. Which given that his own kids were watching tv at the time, was a bit of a cheek. My oldest sister had a bit of a run in with him when she was in the 6th form, which ended up with my mother confronting Ceri in his office. So you can imaging how I feel, because that was him just getting his own back, on me. Punk! But here is some info for you, that might be informative. Ceri was deemed unfit to go into the army circa WW2, so they made him a Bevan boy, working down the pits. That would explain his pockmarked skin and vindictive nature. He also taught German. He probably spoke German quite well, so I wonder if he was an occupation time translator after the war. Ceri probably thought he was too intellectual for the pits. People delude themselves all the time!

Rossi café used to be at the bottom end of town, and when it was relocated it was Tŷ Marisa

I used to live here!

Ducking stool

My word!! I never realised this came with words. I’m Just teaching my daughter this on the piano. Brilliantly sang

Growing up this hits hard as we realize not everyone gets the happy ending , sometimes the hero loses. Lessons well learned.

In a way this song always ran true throughout the series, the only true way for Banner to be free was if he died. That was the tragedy of his life, and was never portrayed as accurately as in the TV series.

Is that Brock Lesnar ??! 😯😳😲😮

Spent one year as foreign language assistant at the Polytechnic in the late 1980s, but lived in Pontypridd! The market was wonderful and especially one of the fishladies was a gem!❤ Does the school for the deaf still exist? It was always so interesting to watch them talk. My love goes to Wales, and especially to Pontypridd!

Lived in Ponty 83 to 87 absolutely loved it. Lovely people.

So nice. Thank you for all of your videos. I miss the good old Bargoed from the 60s and 70s. The best days of my life. Living in Gilfach and shopping in Bargoed. I really miss those good old days. Greetings from Berlin.

I know it well. Many happy memories of my friends in Rhymney.
