‘4chins’ would be closer to the mark…
It’s funny. It’s about 20 years since I lived in London, and I’m totally wedded to a country life now, but a shot like that still instantly makes me feel sentimental. So many mornings I remember like that… lovely when the streets are more empty and the sun is out… the city slowly waking up… the air chilly and fresh… but the warm sun on your face… going somewhere nice to grab a coffee… I love it. I was born slap bang in the middle of London, and it’ll always be in me.
yes me too - born in Shoreditch raised in Hackney.
Mine’s a bit weird - born in Charing Cross but raised in Snowdonia! My Mum giving birth to me was the last chapter of my parents London life. Didn’t get back to my roots until my 20s.
we stayed in Hackney until i was 16 - always enjoyed an early morning bike ride to the Thames as a teenager, and to this day standing by the Thames, always raises the spirits in me. If we stay overnight in London near the Thames we will always go for a early morning walk on the Thames footpath. Jan 1st 2022, at about 5am was lovely.
Ridley Road Market, Dalston - a place of my formative years

The house i grew up in (still standing, my Dad sold for £30k in about 1982 - now two flats when i last checked one sold for £800k and the other for £1m)
