Wembley High Rd. And Ealing Rd.

A Memory of Wembley.

One of my most popular places to hang out was Finley's Tobacco shop on the High Rd. They had a really nice coffee shop downstairs. I also remember a cafe on Ealing Rd. just past Chaplin Rd where a few bikers used to hang out. There was also a musical instrument shop there that also sold records. I can remember lining up outside that shop whenever a new Buddy Holly & Crickets songs were released to get my 45. I attended St Joseph's Church up by the Triangle. On the way home from church we always stopped at the air raid shelter opposite Copeland School and had a few cigarettes. I went to St Joseph's Primary School opposite the Empire Pool and Wembley Stadium. Nice thing about that was being let out of school early whenever England were playing an international match during the weekdays.
