A photo of a print that turned up in my late mother's belongings: I'm standing in the garden at Arnold Road, Tottenham, where we lived from
the summer of 1960 to December 1964. Think this is the summer of 1961: Spurs have just won the Double, and I'm starting to listen to Radio
Luxemburg a lot. Kennedy's president, I've yet to hit puberty, all is well with the world.
