WHAT A TIME TO BE LIVING IN THE SWINGING 60'S 1964
SHE WAS A MOD COULDN'T WAIT TO LEAVE SCHOOL  


The swinging 60s things started slowly changing for this young painfully shy girl. Now 1964 she was a mod her and her friend she has a story seeing this group who became famous they were just starting out and playing in a club, Now 15 she was working at Sopers the big department store in Harrow did her 3 year apprenticeship there. She didn't need to rebel she had a mum who was very easy going and wanted her daughter to experience the world for herself. She never put any restrictions or pressure on her there was a reason for this. She has some amazing stories living in that era. 

What a time to be living in the swinging 60s her favourite show was Ready Steady Go, went with her friend when 14 years old. Saw the Dave Clack Five remembers exactly what she wore. Scottish plaid shirt and corduroy hipster pants.
She hasn't forgotten where she came from, a working class girl from London England. You were a second class citizen to the elite some of the middle class could even be worse, little snobs. Her mother couldn't stand them thinking they were better than anyone else.  She'd had some experiences with their behaviour these hotty totty women. Unfortunately that's what it was like for her mother when she came to London Manchester. In 1955 living in a council flat if you were from the other side of the track you could be shunned. That's why she taught her children you are just as good as them.  She never tolerated rudeness and gossip and you do not have to bow down to any of them.  She did bring her children up with impeccable manners always to say please and thank you. 

You couldn't rise above your status especially being a working class fella way back when. She doesn't think it has changed for many. That's why her brother emigrated came to Canada in the 70s . He was living at home and wanted a better life for him and his wife to raise above the stigma being a working class bloke.  Not able to move forward and never have been able to get ahead and afford to buy a place of his own.  Look what's happening here in Canada shutting down small businesses, taking many of our rights and freedoms away. Don't you realize it's the elites at the top who are doing all of this like it's like going back to the Victorian Times in Great Britain. They didn't care about the people and look how they were treated by the ones who are in charge. Here's info she's put together if you are interested in your history?

The 50s Swinging 60s ~ 70s In London England
What Was It Like Being Brought
Up In London England?
50s 60s 70s
Oh Memories born in London 1950: Living in a one room no housing after the Second World War. Very little food still rationing books, men pissed off they had gone to war. Nothing had changed for the working class poor at last they got into social housing now living in a council flat. Her mother keep their place spotless nice and clean you could have eaten off the floor. She was a very proud housewife and loved her children with all her heart. Her mother always put together wearing make up and dressed impeccably even though they had very little money. Her mother's mother had taught her daughters you don't have to look unkept, you can have two clean ironed white blouses and a black pressed skirt and be well dressed. Also her mother being a twin they got a lot of attention. Their mother dressed them alike iand made a lot of thier clothing.



 
OUR PARENTS AND GRANDPARENTS GENERATION 
THEY LIVED THROUGH THE WARS SHE REMEMBERS HER MUM SHARING STORIES WITH HER. KIM'S MOTHER WAS ONE OF A KIND SHE WAS BORN BEFORE HER TIME A LANCASTER LASS FROM MANCHESTER
She Remembers this so clearly 12 years old seeing her parents glued to the telly watching the news when coming into the room. She went to bed very worried walking out obsessing it was scary picking up their energy. It was negativity and upsetting not good for the young sensitive girl like her.  Would the world survived? That's why you need a strong leaders like Kennedy standing up to these communist countries and now this leftwing mentality like the media here in Canada. Trump is stopping the war in Ukraine but France, Britain and of course Canada here wanting to keep the war going why? It's money loudening that's why these countries are for the war. Unfortunately the media here in Canada who are funded by the Liberal government. You will not get the whole story here, just spin they want Carney to win. Why on earth would you vote for him I can assure you when you do your homework you will be shocked and see how he bankrupted Great Britain and the Libreal's have done it here.
