That's interesting, Tec. My FIL had many tales about his time in the fire brigade. He had a drawing that a mate in the brigade did in 1940 - we have it now. I'll see if I can scan it and send it to you. I would love to be able to trace the artist's family but I can't read the signature :-( |

I think in all the years EastEnders has been on tv, we've watched it about twice - I remember proper East Enders, and I think the programme is an insult to them :-0 |

Incidently - My aunt on my father's side was a fire engine driver during the war in the London Fire Brigade - she could tell some tales. |

I rather hope that Eastenders isn't representative of the true people of East London :-0 |

I think there is something unique about true Londoners - they were such down to earth people, who spoke their mind, no matter what, but were incredibly kind, and would share anything with you if you were in need. |

When I was young I had a friend who's parents, and grand parents were from East London - the East End - I frequently went with him on the tube to visit his grand parents, stayed weekends sometimes. They were such characters, very poor, but salt of the earth. |

My FIL was born and raised in North London and he had such wonderful tales to tell. He was delightfully un-PC :-0 |
