And so returning to the car at Snailbeach, I set off in the direction of

Montgomery, where I was more than

certain my need would be met by Bunner the chandler who sold everything.

Entering the store, I nodded to an

assistant and hurried to the back area of the shop where I could browse in

comfort amongst the organised

chaos, and marvel at the fact that should it be my desire, I could return

home with a Ben Sayers four-iron,

a brush doormat bearing the slogan “Cofiwch Dryweryn”, and an oil painting

by Mercy Rimell entitled

“The Raging Ostler” in addition to the Swarfega, which I finally located on

a shelf, next to a box

of Hussars, who, in spite of their dusty neglect, appeared primed and ready

for Old Boney.

Also in this room was a selection of doll’s houses, and standing next to

a particularly detailed

property called the Franklin was the actress

Lynette McMorrough, who used to play Glenda in Crossroads. As I’d been a bit

of a fan of the programme,

I couldn’t help but engage her in conversation, initially regarding the

magnificent craftsmanship on show,

before rather awkwardly turning the chat onto Kevin’s affair, test tube

babies, and the tragic death of

her dad, who was knocked down by a car whilst stumbling home drunk from a

triumphant bowls tournament.
