Carrots from the Churchyard
Summary
Pauline describes being tempted by the carrots growing in the allotments which used to be next to St. Peter's churchyard.
Transcript
I was a bit naughty really, but I love fresh carrots so sometimes I used to be a bit naughty and steal a couple carrots from somebody or other’s garden and funnily enough, later in years, my mum was in hospital and my friend, who I known since childhood met up at the hospital because her mother was in hospital. We greeted each other and she said, “You know, when we used to go over there and take those carrots, I used to be really scared that at some stage there would be a story on the front of the Clevedon Mercury saying children arrested for stealing carrots in local churchyard”.
