Mrs Morgan Piano Teacher Extraordinaire

My sister, Elizabeth, and I used to be sent to Mrs Morgan (I think her first name was Muriel). a very eccentric piano teacher, for lessons once a week. I think she had a son called Rodney but I never saw or knew if there was a Mr Morgan. She lived in Firs Drive and had long frizzy grey hair which was always loose, giving her a bit of a wild look. She used to wear long floaty dresses with a long chiffon scarf tied around her neck, and had an old poodle called Quaver that she loved and used to kiss a lot. Every time we did well in our piano lessons, she would squeeze us with a huge cuddle and sometimes even kiss us as well as the poodle! I remember that she also had a moped, the kind that you had to peddle to start the engine - we used to see her flying around Cranford on her moped with her dress, scarf and hair flowing behind her in the wind - how she never got strangled like Isadora Duncan, I'll never know! She was lovely and kind and of course very patient!
