Autobiographical sketches 77 - Jesus God of Tower Hamlets

I'd lived in Stepney Green before, in a flat that doesn't exist any more. Oh I was so happy there. I had a great flat on the top floor at the end of one of those four storey, London stock council blocks.

There was a chap who used to parade around the shop parade at Stepney Green, with a sign saying ... well, here he is, in my memory ... outside the butchers.

Before I swapped with the family in Clerkenwell I lived temporarily in Stepney Green on the Ocean Estate. The kids had a huge bonfire while I was there. It felt like living in the wild West. That night anyway.

The rats were far too visible there.
