I would play in the Ritz Picture House doorway with my doll Maureen at (housies). Also Cardean Street with a ball in old stockings “under leggy” or throw the ball jump over it saying boys or girls names in the alphabet. Doll in pram walk to Baxter’s Park. Sit on steps in front of pavilion with Maureen (housies) again. Great imagination! Not like today kids all computers and phone games.</p> 1950's Childhood Games Parks Playing / Games Eileen Hay (nee Raitt) Baxter Park Stobswell Tue, 11 Sep 2012 08:42:57 +0000 lynne.davidson 995 at http://bygone.dundeecity.gov.uk
