Lovely nostalgic photos!

He was one of five who were brought up at 95 Brick Lane, (now gone). He would stuff my pockets with chocolates when we visited. His hands were gnarled with chilblains but he was always laughing. He had a strong east end accent when he called my name. I would like to have known him better, but I was young.
