wow, bonkers.


I love the bit about trying to encourage 15 year old girls to stay on in education being followed by:


'domestic science is useful for a girl. It's useful right away when she marries, but it may be equally useful to a bachelor girl doing a job first.'

Great stuff! Remember being taught 'Domestic Science' at Kingsdale in the early 70s!


Was married in St Giles, Camberwell. Grubby looking on the outside but another world on the inside.


Part 1 very interesting too. I remember the caf? in Ruskin Park where you could get an ice cream and sit outside. It was just near the bandstand.


I was born in 1963 so the films of the area my parents and husband's parents grew up and lived in was very interesting.

    • I am trying to find out about people's experiences of the 4+ and 7+ assessments. I am a teacher and have a wealth of experience tutoring for theses assessments (including my own son), but it's always good to keep on top of things as they always make tweaks to them. TIA! 
    • "You have no idea why"   To be fair Sue, it's blindingly obvious to anyone who has a conversation with anyone who isn't a Corbyn supporter. And even some who liked Corbyn (like me initially) found him somewhat flaky even at his most popular But let's say you are right and I have NO idea why anybody might not vote for him. They still didn't vote for him. He lost two elections. The second one badly (and strongly predicted but the stubborn old goat wouldn't budge so we we were stuck with Johnson and another 3 million PMs in the 5 years that followed) So even with ZERO evidence, we have our eyes and ears and brains But we do have evidence   https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/27022-their-own-words-why-voters-abandoned-labour
    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
