This poetry collection is a quick sprint through my key childhood and adolescent memories including my arrival in London, from Jamaica with my mother . Reflecting also experiences of living going to school in East London, there are some portraits of schooling and parenting back in the day-50s -60s. I left school and went to a Leicester University college in the 1970s after which I have mostly been a London Teacher. this collection covers how I made it against the odds to becoming a school girl athletics champion and deputy head girl in Stratford Grammar school. Where some experiences are unique to me, some will resonate with others in the same generation, gender and ethnic group.
