Hi, I'm new here, too - I'm from Penny Lane.

Hi everyone. It feels great to be a member along with so many other fans. I'd like to introduce myself. I was born in Liverpool in 1943 and spent my first 16 years living at Russell Road. It runs between Smithdown Road and Penny Lane (the road), so I knew Penny Lane really well. Our bank was there; we caught the 99 tram every second Sunday to visit family; I cycled through it one my way to school each day; ..... I went to Dovedale Road infant school and later Calder High School. I was actually one of the few girls who attended Quarry Bank - our school didn't offer advanced math classes. The Big One - my Mother taught Paul at Stockton Wood School. He was one of about 40 7/8 year old boys in her class. I wonder if he remembers her - Mrs Cowin? Is there any way I can find out? I now live on the Sunshine Coast - a short ferry ride from Vancouver, Canada. Am I going to the Vancouver concert? Unfortunately not. Maybe Paul would like to visit the Coast? It doesn't hurt to dream.

Pat, Welcome! Did you ever go to the Cavern and see the Beatles? Did you know John at Quarry Bank? So cool that your Mom taught Paul! P.S. I live in a subdivision off of a Russell Road!
