London Calling
Today, I’m up to london to check out a few things with the house, but mainly to switch on the gas, as otherwise I won’t have any heating or cooking. I’ve not used a gas cooker since 1970, so that will be a learning process.
I’m now starting to plan a few places that I will visit.
- The Wood Green Cultural Quarter. Just up the road from my father’s print works.
- The Wood Green Empire.
- The Royal Iris at Woolwich. She was in Liverpool, when I was at University.
- Fulham Football Ground.
- The New River.
I shall also explore a few walks.
- The Old Railways of North London and especially Seven Sisters to Palace Gates.
- The canals from Dalston to the River Lee and on to Walthamstowe.
It’s going to be fun!

Sounds like a plan – enjoy!

Many years ago I was the Team Leader for a project to supply ticketing systems. We supplied Chelsea, Fulham and Manchester United before I left to company. Those systems are long gone, but lasted for many years until the hardware was well obsolete and the parts no longer available. Somewhere I still have a few of the old ticket blanks I kept as souveniers.

If on your travels you ever come across anything linked to John Wright and Sons, Veneer Merchants or Timber Merchants, please can you take a photo and send it to me.
John Wright was my Gt GT grandfather
