Before the days of viral videos and memes there was Pathe News and runaway sexism. I played for Milton Road C of E primary school football team against a team featuring (shock!) a girl. Megan was immortalised on Pathe News and you can see her here: https://www.britishpathe.com/search/?searchQuery=Girl+footballer+1961

Hi, I was taken to St Mary‘s Nursery, Glen Park View, Leith Road, Gravesend as a baby awaiting adoption. I am curious to know more about this place but cannot find much information, if any on the internet. I know it was run by nuns and would love to hear from anyone who knew the nursery, was placed there as a baby too, or even better worked there. I was there from February 1972 until the end of March 1972. Any information would be greatly appreciated Many Thanks Alison

HI my dad was at St.Marys i think between 1945 and 1952 when he was then "shipped" to Freemantle Australia. Just wondered if anyone remembers him. He then ended up at Bindoon Western Australia

Hello, I wonder if anyone remembers Patrick David Mackay, better know as Patrick Mackay, he was born in 1952. He lived in Gravesend briefly in the mid 60's and 70's. I would like to know if someone or a relative had experience meeting him, before being sentenced to life imprisonment for a wave of crimes. Thank you very much.
