Subject: RE: A gastric Folk Memory for South Londoners
Leaving any club, bar, or coffee housein the Soho area ( Bunjes, Les Cousins, Die Fliedermouse , Les Macarbe etc) going to either the Golden Egg or the Wimpy in Piccadilly. Thurlow arms in West Norwood had some acts on, I did a couple of floor spots there, often had a Whelk and Winle stall outside with Jellied eels, the Cherry Tree in East Dulwich, Eight ( or five) Bells in Bromley with the sea food stall outside. Any regulars to the Cafe Des Artistes? Or the Ship in old Brompton Road?I left London in March 72.

Patties from Brixton Market..... and the smell of the dried Shark. Wasn't London a great place late sixties,bearly seventies?
