Yes I remember your daughter being born Bonnie. I think that was just before I left Todwick. Do you keep in touch with her? Funny to think of you with a 26 yr old son. I remember you as a little girl. LOL!

My boys are 24, 23 & 16.

Can't find you on Facebook by the way.

Christine.

Hi Bonnie.

I worked at Todwick from 1972 - 1980. Married to Keith who also worked there and ran an Art group. He worked with John Cunnington on 1st Floor. I spent a few years on Top Floor and was on duty when the roof set on fire (during the fireman's strike when the Green Goddesses came out). Worked then on the Wing with Paul (Smith?) & Liz. You shared a bedroom with Beverley at that point?

Keith & I lived in one of the houses behind Ken's then shared the Lodge with another couple. I had a very large shed on the old tennis court where I kept the goats.

And you had a sister Rose?

I'm sure we will both know a lot of others. We get a Xmas card every year from Lyn Barlow and I used to hear from Joyce and Ken's wife Llinos at Xmas. But we lost touch with everybody else as we moved away and lived on our narrowboats for 8 yrs from '82 then settled in Staffs.

But you were never forgotten:)

 

i remember you very well you ran the tuck shop

Hello

 

I am looking for people who were in Todwick Grange from 1970-1979 when I was there. I remember Mr Hillman and Mr Tankard! I also know a lot of the other staffs names, for example the Head one was Joyce Parratt. I also remember Harry Bower.

 

My real name is Benita but some people may remember me as Bonnie. I am genuinely looking for my past Todwick friends and staff as I have lost contact since I left there and have been searching for 5 years.

 

Please send me a message if you remember me or know where I can get in contact with anybody else.

 

Thank you

 

Benita/Bonnie

 

i remember mr tankard he used to let us play records and always brought new albums into to play... and of course who could forget mr hilman for some reason we all called him crank:D

Yes I did run the tuck shop for a few years. Took over from Mavis. But I've no idea who you are, or Golden Brown.
