About this memory
Ernest and Hazel Muir.
“Son very much a ‘cowboy’ person, loved his toy guns. When he pretended to be on a horse he slapped his side. He had an imaginary horse he called ‘Tricky’, each night the four-legged table on the underneath part was the stable for it, everything was for the horse’s sake. When he brought it out he would warn everyone by saying ‘He’s Tricky’, you know!’.” – Evelyn Muir (née Mobbs)
