Willesden High Road

A Memory of Hendon.

Ah yes the library. Shame that they are in decline. The Bus Garage, did you know Billy Cotten (as in the showband) worked there. The Electric light house, Stubbings for radio gear where I saved up on my paper round to buy my first crystal set. That got me interested in radio. What was the general store on the left side on a corner. Was it "FRYS" a general hardware shop, it seemed to sell just about everything from mangles to bootlaces! Then going up to opposite the tube station there was a stamp shop where I used to have a good look around. Just wish I had my stamp album now!
Happy days without mobile phones :-)
