You have brought home to me the joys of days gone by, when I used to cycle opposite the moors... thank you."

Pamela Applegarth Spoor : Kentucky. Beautiful, strangely memorable, almost haunting cadence to story, very well done.

Please tell us about yourself

I was born in Scunthorpe and partly raised in a rural setting in the heart of the North Yorkshire Moors.

What's your story about?

I share my wonderful memories as a child and raise awareness of the beauty and mystery on the moors.

I relive humorous family moments that took the edge off some of the cold winters, when we were snowed in.

Every day here was a vast exploration. Family adventures upon the moors, and humorous family moments surrounding the cold waters of the Esk.

I am reliving the days I miss so much.

Why did you choose to tell this particular story?

It was a part of my childhood that I never want to forget and I would like to share with others.

I wanted to praise all of my family for giving me these memories, by watching their faces and smiles as they relive the events.

Any additional comments?
