I thought apartment living was a modern phenomenon.

I have been following your nostalgic Spitalfield posts for a short while. But this most recent post on Handel and Hendrix touched me deeply, for I have been an admirer of Handel and his incredible music. I was lucky enough to give Handel’s grave at Westminster Abbey a bow when in Britain.
Maybe, someday I’ll be able to visit Handel House, as well…

From Russia with lots of thanks,
Valery Burmistrov (Mr)

I am afraid his girth may not have allowed it. Thank you and have a good month of August.
