EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming snapshot from December 28,1964, we catch a glimpse of the unique and resourceful ways people coped with snowy conditions in Llanbradach. The image showcases Mrs Rose Eynon, whose milk delivery van was trapped under a thick layer of ice and snow. Determined not to let her customers down, she sought the help of two young boys: 14-year-old Glanville Piper and 10-year-old Robert Kowalewski. With their youthful enthusiasm and an ingenious solution at hand, Glanville arrived with his trusty sleigh to assist Mrs Eynon in delivering the much-needed milk. As they navigated through the winter wonderland that had enveloped Llanbradach's streets, these brave youngsters became local heroes for ensuring that no household went without their daily supply of fresh milk. This heartwarming scene captures both the resilience of a small community faced with adverse weather conditions and the spirit of camaraderie among its inhabitants. It serves as a reminder that even during challenging times, people can come together to find creative solutions and support one another. The photograph is part of Western Mail and Echo Copyright's collection titled "Memory Lane Prints" which celebrates nostalgic moments like this one from the 1960s. With its blend of humor, innocence, and determination against all odds, this image transports us back in time to witness a simpler era when children played pivotal roles in everyday life – even helping deliver essential goods
