Lynn Randall Marsh Street Youth Club
A Memory of Walthamstow.
I was born in Chingford, but have many fond memories of Walthamstow; going shopping down the high street on Saturday morning, I would keep bothering my mum until we had pie and mash. The big knifes and folks and fancy cash regester fascinated me. Then I kept on at mum until she got me a Rossies ice cream and she had a frothie coffee. When I was a teenager I loved going to the market there for the bargin clothes that were very modern and stylish, and the material stalls were wonderful. I went to Marsh Street youth club in the high street, we had great fun there 1967/8.
Does anyone remember me, Lynn Randall, and does anyone remember a boy I was engaged to, Colin Packer, if anyone remembers, especially Colin, please get in touch as I am trying to retrace his life, as he has passed away now, I was too late in tracing him. I was very sad to find out he had died.
