My Dad took me to the Circus, I think it was because he wanted to go :-D To this day I always remember this man sat with two children one on either side who were laughing their heads off but he looked so very very sad :-(

My first junior school had just been built…think 54…it was very modern with a huge green area and a massive oak tree where we sat in the shade having outdoor lessons. It had a huge hall and performance stage..all the classrooms had huge windows etc. when I was 10 I moved to Where I am now…it was like going back to Dickensian times :-0 :-0
