Re: ART MISTRESS AT OAKBANK.

Thanks IW. Odd she would be buried in Bingley. Her obituary makes no mention of living in the town or attending the former Bingley College of Education.

Years at KBGS e.g. 1958-1964 (optional) 1960-68

Current location (optional) Bingley

"Kangaroo words" are words that contain their own synonyms.

A kangaroo word sounds like something that's spoken in Australia, but it's actually a word that happens to contain its own synonym, with the letters to spell it in the correct order. According to Dictionary.com, examples include the words "chocolate" (which includes the synonym "cocoa"), "masculine" ("male"), "blossom" ("bloom"), "chicken" ("hen"), "rambunctious" ("raucous"), and "deceased" ("dead").

Years at KBGS e.g. 1958-1964 (optional) 1953-58

Current location (optional) Brighouse
