Thanks for posting this.
Although born in Scotland and now living in Cornwall, I spent most of my young years in Hackney. Even went to the same school as Alan Sugar albeit a few years earlier. I've seen the Empire go through most of it's phases, Music hall, Naked ladies, Wrestling, Bingo and now hopefully it will settle back where it belongs.
Thank you Alan and Griff and people like you for caring enough about our past to do something to preserve it.
