BermondseyBoy

How are you doing, Ray? Hope you are ok mate.

Ray mate, I’m so sorry for your loss. My heartfelt condolences to you and your family. May Jen rest in eternal peace. Sending love, strength and solidarity from one Bermondsey boy to another.

Unless Fogbrain says otherwise, I think you’re correct about it being Albany Road, Kiwi. Thanks for the daily dose of nostalgic photos

Thanks for brightening our day with a few new pics, Kiwi. Hope you’re well mate
