Diane Cullimore (now Meyer)

I was Diane Cullimore (now Meyer) from Ravenswood Crescent. School friends that went from Eastcote Lane in 1954 to Hendon Tec were Pat Guest, Jean Waller (subsequently moved to the States), Maureen Levenson, Elaine Wickham.
I only recall Miss Gleeson from Eastcote Lane school. She always put ink dots on her first finger to remind herself of things and I couldn't see how she could remember what the dots actually meant.
I remember we used the field behind my house as a school playing field. The high jump was placed over the site where a bomb had exploded and they used the pit it made for part of the jump.
I recall spending ten days in Harrow Hospital with severe concussion after being knocked over by a ball in the school yard.
Sadly I remember two students committing suicide in a car during my time at the school.
I worked at Philips Electrical Industries in London for two years and then I moved to Calgary Alberta Canada at 18.
I married twice and worked there for lawyers as a Legal Assistant all my life until I retired to Qualicum Beach on Vancouver Island 2002. Have 3 kids and 2 grandchildren and 2 stepchildren. I spend a lot of time on the Internet trying to find more of my old school friends!
