Cider Lollies from Paniccia's
 |
| From Frome Past & Present photo by Di Hollingsworth |
I was thinking about cider lollies. Lovely. We used to get them from Paniccia's of Frome. Asda do them very cheaply as do Iceland. Did you know you can freeze cider? A friend did and you get a little pool at the top of a really strong drink but otherwise frozen. The man in the Paniccia's van knew my name and always said 'Good day Master Mitchard' however old I was. They had a shop and factory down Naish's street. It was very stylish in an old fashioned way. A friend went there to do a student photography project intending to snap their retro stylings but managed by saying something he thought complimentary about their archaic style and they got offended and chucked him out. Lovely ice cream we used to get a slab of ice cream that was wrapped in paper for the journey.

Lower Whitelands by Andy Mitchell
This is where we lived for 25 years. Old miners' dwellings. My Great Grandfather brought up his family there in the early 1900s. We lived in the bottom rank which originally had a railway line running along.

Santana - Oye Como Va [HD] | Live at Tanglewood (1970)
My uncle had an 8 track in his car and he had a Santana tape which I got to hear a lot. He lived in Cornwall and was an insurance agent and so I travelled with him the length and breadth of Cornwall as a passenger with this soundtrack
