London Fields



by A User (1981-2006)

  My drug habit was started and finished in London Fields(March 15th, 1981 9.30pm by the market)....25 years and 3 months ago... mugged, robbed and ripped off more times than I can remember... or wish to... beaten within a millimeter of my sad existence on more than one occasion... its changed since then but everywhere has (on the surface).

  It is now a place I can bring my son, to markets and football and stuff. Happy, vibrant, commercial, superficial and shallow... but I am sure that it will return sooner or later to where it was... just look around between the cracks...
