I learned to read and write there... back in the 1950s.

grahamw48!! I so curious to know about How it was like to learn back in 1950s? I think you have so much interested to share with us, right??? Since then world is so changed and become so advance and you have witnessed all the changes and seems like you had a learning journey though as you are a very interesting person. Hey tell me buddy, something about your learning journey. Did you use a typewriter or a pen?

[grahamw48]

I attended the British Royal Naval School in Singapore. (Dad was in the Navy).

I believe we used pencils at that age (5-7 years).

Reading books were from the 'Janet and John' series. I remember them well.

We learned a lot of stuff (The alphabet, and Arithmetic, for instance), by 'rote'...often in a singsong style.

It worked !

Reading their posts, some of these newer members look like AI bots to me. Not actual people.

[grahamw48]

I get that feeling too.
