Palmers Green 1980/2000

A Memory of Palmers Green.

I used to live in Elmdale Road opposite The Cock pub. I went to St Michael at Bowes Junior School in Tottenhall Road from 1980. Mr Waller was the headteacher then. When I was older I played in Broomfield Park. I then went to Minchenden Lower School in Fox Lane then changed schools to Arnos School. Does anyone remember a shop next to John Menzies that had lots of barrels in it which contained all sorts of cake mixes and other stuff. You would scoop however much you wanted into a bag and then it would be weighed. I have never forgotten that shop. The flower store which was near Woolworth, I was pregnant and doing the last of my christmas shopping and as I walked past the flower stall my waters broke. My first born was born on Christmas Eve 1987. My name back then was April Symons.
