The Anonymous Widower

IKEA By Car

I needed to go to IKEA and an old school friend said he’d take me, as he wanted to have a look round where we lived in Southgate and towards Tottenham and Clapton.

We looked at the house where I used to live and the sink outlet from the downstairs toilet was still covered in concrete.  Why had my father done that? Partly to stop it freezing, but mainly to stop thieves nicking the lead pipe.

In this age of metal theft, some things never change!  Even after fifty years!
