Guy Fawkes Night
A Memory of Notting Hill.
I remember Guy Fawkes night in Convent Garden, Notting Hill just after the war. The bomb sites were full of adventure and wood to build huge bonfires. For a couple of weeks prior to the big night we Convent Garden Gang members
had been out with our Guys collecting money for fireworks, and nicking potatoes from stalls in Portobello Road to cook on the bonfires. Our pleasure knew no bounds, and life was one giant adventure.
