An autobiography of an ordinary bloke from Dagenham. There are thousands Bio's of Kings, Queens, Politicians, Lords and Dukes and their contemporaries, but so few of ordinary people, the great British public who make up 99% of us. It's about time we addressed this imbalance or social history will not be told by the people who lived it. Here is my tiny contribution, now it's your turn!
I really enjoyed the memories your shared. I was born and lived in Dagenham until I married in 1980. Happy days. Remember fancying a girl far out of my league who lived in Chaplin Road. Wouldn't embarrass her or me even if I could remember her name.
