I was born in Maidstone 19 Hardy Street. Went to St Paul's School.
I started at Northborough School.The house was converted into flats.at the same time my mum had twins.so had to move out .And moved to Milton Street. So went to Westborough School.We then moved to Shepway estate Middlesex rd .then went to Mangravite School .I then went to the new Senacre Secondry School.But it was not finished .So we had to catch a bus to Vinters park for the first term.
There were buses from all around Shepway like this one
