I was at Paddock, but since I am a lot older than you, neither of us would know the other! I left in 1963, to go to board near Manchester, with Mary Mag's cousin as headmistress. Would you believe that Mary Mag wasn't the toughest member of the family!! I am sure we would know most of the same teachers. Went to a reunion a couple of years ago, in Rishton - not a very big room, and about 350 women who hadn't seen one another for years - the decibel level was about the same as the main runway at Heathrow! Saw Mary Bailey, who looks terrific. I said how young she looked, her answer - I've lived in the same house all my life and never married. Why should I look old! Miss Graham and Miss Nelson were there - Miss Nelson went a bit white when she saw me - old memories die hard. It was great fun, and I'll let you know about the next one, even if you can't get over, you can send a message/photo to your old school friends.
