OLYMPIC GAMES were held in 1948 in london. 64 years later they are to be held in Stratford London.

 I was lucky to be able to travel through the East End of London including Stratford before most of it was demolished to make room for the Olympic Games Stadium. We was on our way to Otford near Seven Oaks in Kent.

 The buildings were on the point of falling down. most of the people had moved out. It felt the end of an era.

On my return through London on October 24th 2003 i witnessed Concorde coming in to land at  Heathrow Airport for the last time . It was a very sad day to know that too was the end of an era.
