A delightful collection of stories unfolds, capturing the vibrant and nostalgic essence of two young boys' childhood in the charming village of Studley, nestled amidst the picturesque landscapes of Warwickshire during the enchanting 1940s, 50s, and 60s. With a mischievous twinkle in their eyes, the lads humorously recount their thrilling escapades and the colorful characters that inhabited their beloved community. From their school days filled with laughter and camaraderie to their leisurely pursuits in the countryside, they eagerly share their passion for the natural world and the adventures that awaited them within the village's boundaries.

But the lads' reminisces extend beyond the familiar streets and fields of Studley. They fondly remember the bustling industrial center, the grand cinema, and other cherished places of entertainment that once brought joy and excitement to their lives. These memories, now faded but still cherished, serve as a testament to the rich history and character of the village.

To accompany these captivating tales, Roger Thomas has skillfully illustrated the book with over twenty captivating paintings and drawings, each capturing the spirit and charm of Studley's past. Additionally, more than forty photographs of Old Studley, taken by local photographers, provide a visual feast that adds depth and authenticity to the stories.

This delightful book is a testament to the enduring power of memory and the magic of childhood. It invites readers to step into a world of warmth, friendship, and the simple joys of growing up, reminding us of the importance of cherishing the memories of our past and the connections we forged with those around us.
