You asked about my family origins during wartime. Mostly South London, Battersea, Wimbledon and surrounds but some in Leytonstone on my father's side. I was born on the borders of Wimbledon and Merton.
Thanks for getting back to me, Nellie. I asked because I was born in London ....not too far from Leytonstone. The place has changed out of all recognition - and not for the better - but I don't live there any more. Do you?
No, moved to Bedfordshire at 15, then Hertforshire when I married, then in 1979 we emigrated (ha ha) to near the North Norfolk coast - very rurally. So officially a country bumpkin! What about you?
