Anybody else remember The Cage. Spent a lot of my childhood playing football up there. Actually remember hearing about Kennedy being shot whilst up there in 63 when this picture was taken. I think we stopped playing for all of 30 seconds

Some pictures of my family at Hopping I went for a couple of years but very young so dont remember anything

Anybody remember a sweet shop on the corner of Stalham Street? My Nan owned it about 1954 and I lived with her for a couple of years till my Mum couldnt stand her any longer!

In Snowsfields, we used to sing through the Air Vent:

Barnetts sell fish
Three'hapence a dish
Dont Buy Dont Buy it
It stinks when you fry it

Never forgotten even taught my grandchildren that one!
Ah Happy Days

Near Southwark Park. My nan had a sweet shop on the corner and at about 7 I lived there for a short while (Can you imagine I thought I had died and gone to heaven)

Lived in the flats in Guy Street. Does anybody remember Hamilton Square where we used to play football in the square even though there was a big old tree in the middle!

I remember playing football in Tabard Street. Also the church in the park was where The Dave Clark 5 made a film and all their gear got nicked!

This is a picture of me as a baby, Mum and Sister both unfortunately no longer with us! I can remember all jumping on "Smitthys" van to go down to 'Opping. Grandads favourite chair was first on
