My parents owned the Tip Top Cafe which was on the right of the picture where you can just see a parade of shops with flats above, which is where I was born. The bus stop in the forefront is where I used to catch the 65 or 265 bus to school in Surbiton. I also remember when the cafe was a meeting place for bikers (not rockers) and the cafe opposite was the meeting place for the Mods on their scooters.
