Tina was born in Manchest on the 21st April 1966,she was put up for adoption and was adopted by our parents Joan and alex Ramus prior to adopting us both,joan and alex foster​ lots of children, it wasn't long before the adoption became legal and I had a baby sister there was 4 years between myself and tina,
--when tina first arrived arrived we were​ living in rotherithe london some very close friends friends of mum and dad lived next door they become our aunt vi and uncle Arthur, they had a small caravan with a stable door no toilet no washing facilities down at jaywick there used to be 8 or 9 of us in there at a time it was​ like something out of a carry on film from rotherithe we moved to east dulwich​
still taking our holidays at jaywick ,skip forward we then moved to the aylesbury estate where our dad was a caretaker, then the terrible twins became friends tina and petal but there was lots of us that all used to play together, I never forget the time mum and dad took us to the fair and I was made to go on the big wheel with tina and she sat there and swang it back and forth I was screaming the more I screamed the more she done it,
Tina's first job after leaving school was a traffic warden with the metropolitan police after a while she transferred to the compound where the vehicles that got towed away went ,after that she worked for the London waste authority, she also worked for asda and I believe the cafe up here,sadly our mum died of cancer too, she had it in the lung and brain. one afternoon Tina had this terrible fit she was diagnosed with a​ non malignant growth on her brain they think she was born with it and the shock of mum activated it, dad and I often received calls from various hospitals saying tina had had a fit. soon after mum died tina moved out and on her own brought​ her first​ house in swanscombe kent,about 10 years ago there was a cousins reunion where tina spent a lot of time speaking to her nephew alfie and niece amy and they remained in touch in 2014 tina moved up to the peak district
