    I don't want to put you off buying the book, swmc66, but there was a one-way system even in the 1950s round the Narroway, Amhurst Road, Dalston Lane triangle......

    Do you live in Hackney?

    I live in Ilford Essex and work in london boroughs of Newham, Waltham Forest and Barking and Dagenham. Have had to go to Hackney for work here and there over the years. Always get lost but I have my sat nav now. Had to do some consultation work with patients when they were moving their community dental services in that very old hospital (St Leonards i think)To a new all purpose building with no thought given to parking.not so long ago.
    Are you aware of Newham Parent Book shop? They support a lot of writers. Sometimes they organise readings which i have gone to. I love my books.

    What is this book you're so obsessed with? Do you keep buying it as presents?

    Its ...the Boy with the Topknot by Sathnam Sanghera. I have got it as a gift for people many times over and also replace mine when they take it too.
    Real life moving story with a lot of humour by a sikh Times newspaper journalist. First time I read a book I could relate to.
