i'm pretty sure will self lives in vauxhall, not sure if that's sw9?

when i used to work on south london press (with 8, of course) we used to spend our whole time chasing every *vaguely* famous person who ever had anything to do with south london, it was kinda pathetic.

You should feel priviledged Ali!! And didnt Lennon, get the better of those two guys, only to think better of finishing them off?

Any way, famous and from coatbridge, just round the corner from me old mans house, are Gerry Rafferty(writer of baker street, and stuck in the middle with you by stealers wheel) and Ian 'Lovejoy' McShane....Dad says he hung around with both as a nipper, but thats debateable.

the most interesting one i saw the other day was jimmy page of Led Zep

Yeah, think so. I think thats why they got of relatively lightly.

C'mon though, even Celtic fans don't like Neil Lennon!

Also, Lennon has become a bit of a Jambos favourite after he gifted us a cheeky wee goal in the last clash...

(Although I always thought Ricksen was a much bigger fanny.)

Hackney has lots of ex-Big Brother people and soem porn stars (I think). Plenty of B-List Japanese too because of the Burberry factory off Morning Lane.

Buskers, Street Entertainers

The bloke who rides in his wheelchair down the middle of Cambridge Heath Road, last heard he had been run over!!!!
Then: Local characters: Terry Turner Brunswick Arms E9 area
38 Bus harmonica player.
Being the 50's i think the only place to go was Petticoat Lane of course.I was only about 3-4 but remember it vividly.There was a big African guy that use to be flame eater that use to perform regulary down there.Remember this was the 50's so there were very few people of african origan so even that was strange.He could of probally made a living by just sitting on the pavement as very few people would of seen his race.(I live in New zealand and hear its different now?)The other thing to stick in the brain was one part of the Lane was taken up by blind people sitting along the pavement basket weaving. Also a guy in chains.What a strange place for a 3 year old!!It must of been as I can still see them as if it was yesterday.
plenty of street entertainers, dont think that the know though...
If you find beggars, smack-heads, drunks and east european gypsy squeegee merchants entertaining - then Hackney's your place.

same town as jessica alba.

Yes they were. I reckon he should have a crack at dubstep. The mix cd that came with the first album had some disgusting beats.
