OMG, Billy it was amazing to see the Electric Ballroom in Camden Town. This is where Sid Vicious played his last concert in August 1978 before he travelled over to New York and then his girlfriend Nancy found dead in the Chelsea Hotel and Sid arrested and sent to the hellhole of Rikers Island, then Sid released again where he died from drug abuse, 2nd February 1979 in Greenwich Village. That Electric Ballroom was part of punk rock history 🎪⏰️🎸

Then a drink and a song with the bloke that was trying to bite your ear off a while before. Some great pubs and live music. Happy days. There was a second hand clothes shop where we purchased clobber and sometimes sold it. I can't recall the name of the bloke that ran it. An old Jewish fella. I think his name was Solly. If you remember let me know please.

It was more hippyish in those days, but when Punk came along in 1976, it had a big influence on what was sold in the market. Always a good vibe there. I used to live a couple of miles away in the fancy (not my gaff though!) WC1 area of London.

Camden Town and King's Cross area up until mid 2000's, before the whole rail regentrification completion was a different beast. You would see some amazing characters doing the most random things. I remember this elderly man in King's Cross named Speedy, who used to walk at snails pace and would stick his fingers up at any driver that honked while he was crossing the road or at anyone he didn't like the look of🤣. Camden Town at night was also very interesting.
