      @@demitraferles7970 I’m so glad to hear that! My family lived in Stratford and we used to pass the house on the 25 bus on the way to Whitechapel to visit my grandparents. I was so sad to see that it had gone last time I was there and thought it was cultural vandalism. I can now imagine it in Australia, with my niece in Melbourne!😊

Rones was just past Brady Street heading towards Manns Brewery and The Blind Beggar. The stallholder used to get the early production copies of the records and their sleeves. So you might have and off- centre label or a minor printing fault/ typographic error etc. But his prices were good! I still have most of those vinyl discs today.

    I remember Stepney from the Rolling Stones song "Play With Fire".
    "Your ole man took her diamonds and her tiaras by the score, Now she gets her kicks in Stepney, Not in Knightsbridge any more. Don't play with me 'cause you play with fire." I wonder if the mention of Stepney was in reference to the social housing?

    Nothing better than walking around and discovering more about this wonderful city!

    My mum’s home manor and now I’m really homesick! Thanks Joolz for this video, so pleased you made it. Any chance of going a bit further up to Bow, Stratford and West Ham? We’ve got a couple of lovely Churches!😄

      For the sake of accuracy, no-one in London has said "how's your father?" since at least the 1940s....and no one has EVER said "apples and pears"
