I was 17 years old and I became infatuated with chickens. I am now 81 years old but still have vivid memories of the day I collected my chicks from the local railway station. I lived in Brockley which is a suburb of London, S.E.4. I named my chicks eeni, meeni, miney, mo, catcha, nigga, byistoe. I know the word nigga is regarded as offensive these days, but it was just an innocent rhyme that I learned as a child. I would never use that word today. At one time, I was a London Transport bus driver and my conductor was from Barbados. Oh! Those reggae parties I was invited to. Such great people.
