I love Holloway Road!

Best mis-spent years of my life were mis-spent up and down and around it!

God bless the Equadorians the Kurds and the Turks! And goddamn the Met for cleaning up the illegal cigarette trade.

I sort of miss London, actually.

It’s pretty obvious those handcuffs were there for you to attach to your wrist of choice and await the authorities.

Holloway Road is a shit hole no matter how flowery the poetry used to describe it. I go there for Waitrose, my barber and very occasionally the Post Office as I live up the road in Christ knows where, Barnsbury Holloway borderish, I can’t work it out. I just say Holloway and inwardly wince as I am a bit of a sad pretentious prick. I do like living around here though, it’s quiet where I am but the noise (if I want it) is just a few minutes away and everything London has to offer right on my doorstep. Marvelous.

Holloway Rd brings back memories. Mainly that of the dole office and the Benefits office up at Seven Sisters, and being arrested for buying illegal fags. Oh the joys. Its a pretty ok place really, there’s something comfortably non-pretentious about it that I really like.

I live just off Holloway Road and don’t mind saying it. Good curry.

Its, not it’s, btw.

Lovely photos. And a lovely story, too.

I wish I loved my living quarters half as much as you do. All I can say is that I live with a bunch of nosy seniors who manage to flood their property on a weekly basis at least. Ugh.

Beautiful pictures. The Central Americans sound like my Cajun relatives.

looks fairly lovely to me. But then, all of that part of the world does.
