I haven't been on here for ages but have just watched Long Lost Families.
That *was The Quarry wasn't it in the first story?

Thank you Eilleen, I'll do that, it was weird seeing the photos of the house, ridiculous but it seems familiar.
My Mum would've been there too with my older Brother who was also born at Wragby road Lincoln a couple of years earlier.
It seems crazy nowadays that she could just come and get me and drive off, she used to say she asked about my BM and was she ok and they said she was fine and with her own Mother, it made her sad to think her dream of a baby daughter was also the heartbreak of another woman.
She used to send photos of my Brother and I to the home for a few years but it kind of died out over time.
I think she hoped they would be passed on to our respective BM's.

Not sure if I'm doing this right or even on the right page.
However, I think I was born at The Quarry, process of elimination, I know I was born at a M&B home on Wragby road on Dec 22nd 1959.
My Mum collected me by taxi on the 3rd February 1960 and my adoption was completed in June.
Not sure about making contact with anyone but how do I go about getting an original birth certificate, I understand I have to go for counselling being born before 1975, is this definitely necessary?
My BM's name was Margaret and she came from Peterborough.
If anyone reads this and knows about me, don't worry, my adoption was hugely successful but as I get older I want to know a few more details.
I have no intention of intruding if it's not wanted and I blame no one, I know how hard things were in those days.
