Denise

Childhood friend

Denise lived two doors away in Portchester, guided Margaret through a new school and remained part of several important early memories. They met again years later.

Memories involving Denise

Denise from Two Doors Down
Memory · Late summer 1969
Denise lived two doors down and knew the street already. This gave her authority.
The New House in Portchester
Memory · August 1969
We moved to Portchester in August 1969, a few weeks before my seventh birthday and before I started at Castle Lane Junior School.
My First Day at Castle Lane
Memory · September 1969
Mum walked me to Castle Lane on my first morning. Denise came with us and behaved as though she were showing two visitors round.
Saturday Records
Memory · 1976
By 1976, Denise and I spent some Saturday mornings looking at records. Looking was free. Buying required several weeks of not spending money on anything else.
Denise Again
Memory · May 2009
I met Denise again in Fareham in May 2009.
