What sort of years was you around them parts Mackem if its not rude to ask ?

Late 80's through the early 90's mate,always have fond memories of the isle of dogs.

 

We should remember some of the same folk i would imagine remember the Browning brothers round there ?....Billy,Micky,Monty,i forget the other few........big Sammy the half caste lunatic used to kip round Billingsgate ?....Billy Wicks used to dj in all the pubs ?.....it was a bit off the plot for me but still some cracking characters round there.

I lived with a group of do-as-you-likees mate,i dont think we moved in the same circles,yours were proper east end geezers,mine were a bit wild with no fixed roots,my brother had just got out of nick after 3 or 4 years,he came down and ended up marrying a girl from Bow,I think your clique were into pubs,clubs,night clubs,the guys i palled around with were scrap-metal building and other stuff sort of blokes.But yes,the east-end had some genuine characters,the west end nowadays has loads but they are a different breed.

oh no these wasnt pals of mine mate just well known funny local characters that all neighborhoods have.....like i say it wasnt really my manor too close to Millwall for me but some folk just stick in the mind.

 

West End was just about fanny for us back then....east end boys/west end girls and all that.

We used to hunt fox on mudchute right next to the urban farm,there used to be loads around,happy days.

Did you know the lads who owned the bull crosses Punch and Rumour.

I think the guy who owned punch used one of the dogs we ran to bring punch on,he will remember us as the bunch of travellers with shepp,the big deerhound cross,was the owner a brickie?

That's him mate.His pal had a black and white first cross who was Punch's half brother fella who owned it was a real good bird catcher.
