I can trace my entire life along Finchley Road and have a dedicated photo group for it online. I worked there for a short time in 1976 by Henlys Corner, and again in Temple Fortune from 1992-7. I also worked in Swiss Cottage Market in 1980-1, and in the Community Centre next to it from 1990-3. My friend lived opposite Finchley Road Station throughout the 70s where I spent a lot of time, went to a club near this spot in the mid 70s, spent a week in the Arts Centre in 1972 on a printing course, had my original doctor's surgery in Temple Fortune in the 60s to 80s, and got the bus home every school day outside Golders Green station from 1969 to 1976.
