About the Author

Born 12th May 1929, fifth of six children. Evacuated in 1939 to Rushden, Northlands. I wanted to be a teacher but because I left school at 16 with only school leaving Certificate nor Matriculation. I had to consider other options. After marrying and having three sons the change came for teacher training at Stockwell College, Bromley. Those three years were the happiest of my life although it was a hectic time. Finally I became a Primary School Teacher at the age of 35, and spent fifteen happy years teaching at Alexandra Junior School in Penge. I retired aged 53 and have had a happy and fulfilling life eversince, but that is another story.
