During the war I lived in the countryside near Uddingston. There was an old coalmine area with only the overgrown pit bings remaining which were perfect playing areas and, in 1944, training sites for the army. We knew the area like the back of our hand and used to surprise the soldiers in their camouflaged trenches. I hope that we helped to save them as they were obviously not confident in the country.
