Roseberry House
A Memory of Skegness.
Was sent to Roseberry House in the early 80's I think, it was the first time away from mum and I cried the first few nights. It was mixed by that time; boys dorm one side of building, girls the other, we had bunk beds. I remember playing games, having little competitions, we were in teams with colours, got points for different activitys. I have fond memories because it was there I had my first boyfriend and kiss - think his name was Matthew. Often wandered what happened to him. After we said goodbye I cried and waved as he got off the bus in Mansfield Woodhouse. Places seemed so very far away when we were kids.

Think when we got home our dog had been run over...Shandy...ah.
Reckon it must have been 1973 as I am sure "tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree" was playing on the bus.
