My Confirmation

A Memory of Ickenham.

Must have been 1962 when I was confirmed at St Giles. We have an old super 8 film of us coming out of church, boys smartly dressed, girls veiled, some wore uniforms. We had had confirmation classes before with a young padre - wish I could remember names - he liked baked beans and had a dog! I invited one friend, Janet Cooper, and we celebrated with family members in the living room above our shop Kolordek - Glebe Ave. Danced the Twist. The church door were always open and I went there during a school dinner break (Swakeleys School) some time before my confirmation because I was rather unsure whether I wanted to take this big, serious step - I was given a sign and went through with it.
