Growing Up
A Memory of East Ham.
I was born in Stepney and grew up in Hatherley Gardens. Fond memories of Brampton Junior School and especially Miss Aylward and Mr Price. Went on to the Grammar School and spent lunch wandering up and down the high street with a bag of chips bought for a shilling, l think. I remember the shops in the Barking Road, especially the Economic Stores owned by Mr and Mrs Wise. The post office opposite used to sell the most wonderful broken chocolate, don't know where they got it from but it was very different. I agree with others that the toast bought at the Town Hall was the best! Been back since for football and hardly recognised any of it - what a shame.
