12th of may 1959, not a warm day, and it was a Monday...strange day to get married? cant remember why now. Lived in digs in Tannsfeld Rd. for a while, moved away for a few years..... then lived at 26 & 28 Venner rd, before they were demolished, so sad... they were strong solid houses. Sydenham always seemed to pull me back, but I am now settled in Sevenoaks in sheltered housing. My maiden name was Duckworth...ring any bells for any of you oldens ?.
I went to St Michael's School in Champion Crescent. My grandparents Annie and Ernie bines lived opposite the road. Good times.
