Sat Morning Shopping Trips.

A Memory of Enfield.

I spent my childhood living in Hillside Crescent, and will always remember doing my mum's shopping in Lancaster Rd on a Sat morning. Down Browning Rd to Lyons the grocer, then often for a hair cut next door but one, from the Oil shop in Lancaster Rd, next door to the Seed & Pet shop, then Henry Waits the butcher, sometimes to the grocer next door. Across the road to the cake shop, then along the road to McFisheries for cat pieces, I sometimes took my neighbour's accumalater next door to the fish shop for a re charge. Off home then along Birkbeck Rd to the Stumps, up to Hilly Fields and home. Very fond memories. I also belonged to the Life Boys at Armingale Rd, 60 years have gone, but those days I'll always remember - especially my friends at the time, Ron Arrowsmith/Brian Ryder/Alfie & Duncan Wooten & Gerald Turner.
