I originally posted this on the General Forum, where it didn't seem to be noticed, so I thought I should move it to this page.

For anyone who ever went to the NSTS/C at Gravesend, the following website is a must for you to check out <a rel=nofollow target=_blank href="http://www.gravesham.gov.uk/index.cfm?articleid=3823">http://www.gravesham.gov.uk/index.cfm?articleid=3823</a>

I have copied below an extract from the site, and the more people who send in their memories, the better, so that those days are not forgotten. There are already 12 people's memories on there, but room for so many more. Have a read, as I it will bring back memories, and then add your own.

Regards

Ian
