From 'Journey of an Islington Lad' by Rodney Derrick

I was born in 1948 on 29th January at the Royal Northern Hospital.
We lived with my nan and grandad in a large house in Miranda Road which is part of the Borough of Islington.
My grandad used to be down the pits, then he worked on the trams. First of all he worked on the horse trams. He worked at the large gagrage in Pemberton Gardens. turquoise cocktail dresses
