Hello,
Life,for me seems years but it's just what you make it.Lets see where do I start,what can I remember of my young life.Born in London.
Thinking back I must say that my earliest thoughts were as a young 5Year old at school in the Xmas play as a Angel for the Nativity Play,and the Xmas of that year with my presents of a Wind-up Train,and my Cowboy Outfit with Twin Holsters and the usual little gifts in my stocking at the end of the bed.But Alas nowdays things are to commercialised and all holidays seem to run into each other.You do not have the time to enjoy these wonderful days.It was a time of family and joyfulness spread thoughout the world no matter where you were from.
The times with my Dad when we used to go to Petticoat Lane and Portabelle Road with all the Market Stalls and Street Traders selling their wears.The Town Crier sing out the joyful News and the Hot-Chestnuts and Doughnuts sellers,the Magicians and the Jugglers and Choirs Singing Hymns all these thing were part of life.Maybe in furture time these thing just might return,to enjoy again.
Until the next trip back in time,lets hope that we can at least make this world a better place for everyone.

The life and times of a once-cockney devonian.
Hello Harry,
ReplyDeleteLondon sounds like a very exciting place in which to have grown up. The times you described of being with your father during the holidays must have been magical. I could wish to have experienced such a colorful place.
Hugs,
Pamela
