How did this thread move to gay nightlife and high property prices in London?
Are you lot suggesting Steve Bruce likes musicals and hasn't got the money for a house in London?
 
“It is now time to take Fulham to the higher level of success we expect from our manager and players — success our supporters deserve.”

This is the comment of a deluded club. They will carry on changing their manager every year.

I worked in Haringey from 1969-73 and you'd need a few more bob than £50,000 to have lived off Hampstead Lane eg.The Bishop's Ave., Compton Ave. and Courtney Ave., etc. A tad out of my price range.:emoticon-0101-sadsm
Think Lynsey de Paul moved to Hornsey later.

I lived in one of these four storey terraced houses north of Mansfield Road. On the south side of the road there was the longest block of council flats in Europe at the time. Lynsey de Paul lived in an area called Oak Village to the east of the council flats. The houses looked like small cottages but they extended a long way back and had four bedrooms. I read that when she moved to Hornsey the house was described as a "mansion".
Later when I'd moved to south London I had an estate agent client who's office was in The Tonsleys - which is a small pricey area around Wandsworth Town. She specialised in that area and was very knowledgeable. This was about 20 years ago and £400k was the average price for that area. A relatively scruffy guy walked into her showroom and said he was wanting to buy a house in the area. She asked him if he had finance for a purchase so he took out a bank statement with a balance of over £500,000! The Tonsley's had houses which were very pricey and desirable but you could buy homes a few yards away for half the price.
 
David Moyes will be sacked today, I suspect it could be him if it happens . Rumours are that Gary Monk is also on the verge of being pushed .

Like many living in Hornsey she probably referred to living in Heegate. Knew somebody living in Severnake Road which is close to Mansfield Road. In 1973 you'll have missed the free Camden Festival concerts on Parliament Hill from 1968-72.Popped in a pub on occasions in Pond Street opposite the Royal Free. Went to the cinema on South End Green a few times. Doubt it's there now.

We used to go to the 11 pm shows on Friday night quite often.
We also would get up early and stand on Parliament Hill at 8 am Sunday which was quite a tradition.

Remember watching "Bullitt" there. The noise of revving cars after the performance was very loud.
