The  tide came over in 1927 and it took all the  Railway  Ballast with it and the track was hanging with big holes where the  track was.  There was about eight foot or more of water in our cellar and it took with it everything that was loose in the fields. 

You heard very good stories in the Quarry and I can remember one very good one.  There was a man in Blaenau who was always in  the pubs and the minister had a word with him and old `Nowtyn' as he was  called,  promised the minister that he would  keep  off  the drink.
