The Aberfan Diaster
I was still living in London at this time. My sister was already married and had two young children and she worked part-time.
To enable her to carryon working through the 'half-term' holiday from school, she had asked me to stay with them in order to look after the children. (I too, had been on the school 'break').
My sister arrived home from work about 12.30pm and switched the tv on to hear about the disaster that had befallen a small village from our Welsh homeland.
My sister watched an cried, as the full extent of the disaster broke.
