I'm from Sanderstead - the Hamsey Green end and my childhood was spent going to and from Warlingham to Bailey the butcher's at Aberdeen House, and the library. I went to Attwood Primary School and vividly remember the day a pig escaped from the nearby farm to come to our playground! My grandmother was born in Richmond when it was Surrey and not part of Greater London.

Hi everyone I live in Surrey(27 years) but was not born here so maybe I don't count. Brian I'm with you hate the boundary changes and counties losing there identity. When writing a letter I still put Staffordshire and not West Midlands. I think our decendants will be very confused with all the changes. Pat
