I remember buying my first pair of trainers when I was around 12 years old oAWF the Romford market. when I got home I was well excited. whacked em on. they was both for left feet lol
I First started to work on the market in 1964 I was only 11 we sold trousers . it takes me back seeing this we had nice times back then and I remember you Tony . its sad the markets are not the same to day
Ah, I remember it well! Born Romford 1937 moved from there in 1972 to live in Cornwall , where I have remained ever since! Do I miss it? Not really! I obviously have memories, but prefer living where I do now! Romford has got swallowed up by being too near London and has lost some of it's identity!
Many happy times , when Romford was in Essex and we lived in Collier Row . If the wind was in the right direction , you could smell the hops from the brewery . The Lodge Lane pig farm ....phew , say no more .
I lived on Morant Gardens 1985--2004. I remember the hog farm smell if it rained and the wind was right. I remember the smell of the brewery, one of my earliest memories.
