Now I Remember
Having discovered this site only recently many memories came flooding back, as reminded by the photo of Hale Lane where I helped out in the Kosher Deli as a kid.
I lived in Lynford Gardens then in Glendale Avenue over a period of about 10 years from the age of nine until 19 when I left to live overseas.
Looking back today I feel very fortunate to have grown up here having moved from Kensington out to the 'Green Belt' as it was known in those days.
I attended Edgware Secondary Modern School and as a kid used to roam far and wide especialy on bicycles with my mates. Climbing the big oak trees in Edgwarbury Park, and missing out on school to go exploring the countryside on bikes and cycling to Hampstead Heath in the snow to slide down the Heath. Great memories of lots of friends and plenty to do. These days I live in Australia in the middle of the rainforest, who would have ever dreamt as a kid growing up in Edgware that decades later I would end up here.

I attended Edgware Secondary School in 1950s. When did you attend? Maybe we have mutual friends. My name is Sheila Goodwin and I live in Philadelphia, USA, any recollection?
