Hardyments Hardware And China Store
A Memory of Kilburn.
In 1961/62 I used to have a Saturday job in Hardyments, on Kilburn High Road, a real old-fashioned store selling all sorts of china and hardware. The assistants had to wear a most unflattering blue wrap-around overall and we were strictly supervised by a lady called Miss Jennings who also took care of the cash which went up one of those chutes to the office above. People I remember include Diane Hood and Phillida Rowbotham, both Saturday girls like me and Danny who worked in the yard sorting out deliveries etc. I remember him taking me on a date to the State Theatre to see the great Miles Davis S, Danny was a modern jazz fan. For working all day on Saturday we earned £1!
