Whan I Was In Shorewell Village Sschool

I was very happy in Shorwell School and going to Chapel on Sundays, and going on Chapel outings. Then paly with my friends at school and at weekends. It was a very nice place to grow up, it changed after I left school. I hope someone will remember me. I am now living in Southampton, I have been here since 1967, when I got married - I am now divorced. But I have met someone very special - he is my knight. I am very happy now since 1990.
