Myspace Contact TablesSo much to say, so little time to write it all. Watch this space, and I will tell all. My daughter is driving me mad to write about myself. Not sure where to start, as my life has been interesting, lots of good stuff, and of course the ususal shit that always comes along,for most of us. I could go way back, when I was young and still full of hope and had dreams. I wanted to be an artist,and also a model. I was a child of the sixties, thought Twiggy was wonderful. Left school with 6 GCE's and an A level in Art, and went to work in the brand new Chelsea Drugstore in the Kings Road. What a womderful time it was then. My very best friend Christine worked there with me as well. We are still friends today, and I love her.That summer was wonderful. After the drugstore I went to work at The Cromwellian Club in South Kensington.My nights were also spent at the Speakeasy club.During this time I met many people, some may remember me, some may not? Some of the people who passed through my life during these years were Jake, Bill Ivory, Long John Baldry, The Searchers, Wishful Thinking,The wonderful Harry in his bar, Paul Lincon aka Doctor Death, Kenny Lynch, Alan Hudson, The lovely Paddy Mulligan,Stan webb, Chicken Shack, Keith Webb, Peter Beckett. Oh so my names from my past life.More to still come. Oh yes, I saw Jimmy Hendrick jam one night at the Speakeasy. What a wonderful memory to have.Colin do you remember? There was the beautiful Georgie Bean, who passed so fleetingly through my life. Someone I will never forget. Then in 1972, I had my first child, my lovely Sarah. Where is her father, Dave? Then Greg Lake came into my life, but not for long. My Life began to change at this point. It took many turns, and not all for the best, met some more people who affected my life. I spent too much time out at The Speakeasy, thinking I was having fun, but was not really. In 1975 I married, and straightened out my life. Went back to college, and trainned as a Nursery Nurse, In 1979, My second daughter was born, Flynn, then in 1982, my son Tam was born. How Lucky I am to have 3 wonderful children. Went to work at Eardley School with Joe. A very special boy. Joe is still part of my life and I am very proud to know him. He has grown into a wonderful young man.
