Entries for 1969

Sundays with Nan Wells
Memory · Late 1960s
We visited Nan Wells on Sundays often enough for the routine to feel fixed, though I cannot say whether it was every week.
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.
