    one Walk down, and enjoy,the scenary,then a pint at the **** Inn
    two Run down,same thing,enjoy a pint at the **** inn
    cycle down it,free wheeling ,and see how far you can get round the corner
    and up the hill to the **** inn
    thats three
    four just jog down,
    5 drive down ,by car,or Lorry
    6 by tracky bus (idid once)
    7 make a trolly go down on that
    8 Sledge down in winter
    i would think you would be nearly 20 year old to have done that
    like we did back in the old days oh down by scooter
    no brakes,the old foot scoote
    you would think that is about all
    No it is not
    some how as 7 year odl
    i was given a pedal car
    now my two brothers Albert 8 years older than me,and Jack6 years older than me
    came with me to see i ws safe when i went to Pilley Hill
    i got to the Bottom ok and they pushed me about a third of the way up the Hill
    then i set off down,i took my feetoff the pedals
    and it rana way with me, before i knew it
    i had lost it
    it Rolled over and over crash bang wallop
    i was lucky, heavy brusing scratchesmno blood
    albert and Jack did not know what to tell my Dad
    when he saw me battered and brusied
    there was another crash bang wallop soon after that
    very close to the Dust Bin
    but i still wanted to be a bus driver

    thats right ,there was at the bottom of the hila big house,at the entrance to that big house was a big sisnister looking eagle
    just like you see in them mystery spooky films
    and a Mr Knowless lived there
    during war he grew Tomatoes,people use to Que right up Pilly Hill
    then,they built the Motorway and cut the road off then you went the other side of the House to get up Pilley Hill
    and a MR Charlie Williams took residence there
