Devil's and Fleem Dyke Cambs, V & A, Commonwealth Institute, Shaw Theatre London. Also the most wonderful exhibition of Art Nouveau at the Royal Academy, Piccadilly.

I don't think schoold went in so much for trips when I was at school, or if they did, I didn't get to go on them. In the Primary school I went on two, to the Festival of Britain exhibition, and to Windsor (must have gone to the castle but all i remember is a river trip and the fact that my bottle of drink leaked! High school the only trip I went on was to Haringay to see Billy Graham the American Evangelist. Sunday school we used to have an outing every year, always as far as I remember to Lyndhurst in the New forest. Ann Glos

Hi we all went to Colomendy in north wales .It was great we aso visited Conway And Llandudno not sure if i have spelt the towns correct. Schools still go there today many years later PS Any one else go to these towns and what schools Keith R

Perhaps because there was a war going on, my grammar school never organised trips whilst I was a student.. len

We went to watch Henry IV part 2 at Stratford ,which was a shame cos the Scottish play was our O level book!
