1960'S

[Janis Brown 10]

I was at Abbeydale Girls School from 1962 to 1969.  I was in Nightingale House.  I think back on my time there mostly with pleasure, remembering the Christmas Carol Concerts and the parties in the first two years etc.

I was so sad when they pulled the building down.  Wished they could have used it for some other purpose.  A friend and I managed to get in just before and picked up some of those yellowy/green wall tiles - do you remember them - that were falling off the walls as souvenirs!  In the sixth form, as the common room was always so crowded, a group of us used to meet in a small room on the back corridor which we called The Extra Common Room.  I remember Dr Green, Miss Tyler, Miss Williams, Mrs Taverner, Miss Lucas etc etc.  Do you remember the chocolate pudding with chocolate icing on top?!

I became a teenager in 1960, I loved the 60’s with a passion.

And me. I think we were so lucky to have grown up and been part of everything that was happening. The music the fashion the cars it was a fantastic decade.

I saw Dave Berry on stage many times in the 60's.  Saw him at Warners, Gunton Hall last Saturday and he was brilliant.
