A Memory of Torquay.

I was born in Torquay in June 1954 in Shrublands Hospital (can anybody remember that hospital, it was in the Warberrys).
I left Torquay when I was 23 and came to live in London, my heart is still there. Who knows, I might retire back there.
But the town has changed so much. I spent a lot of time down the beach, I see they have knocked down the sheds - there was a cafe there and toilets, yes it looks bare now.

I was also born in Torquay, and moved up to London when I was 19, back in 1974, like you, my husband and I thought of retiring back there, but it's changed sooooo much, don't think I could now, but it'll always be home to me
