Too many changes in Islington, the whole place has become gentrified. Half of Islington are poor people pretending to be rich anfd the other half are rich people pretending to be poor. I don't expect you remember the days when we were known as 'The Peoples Republic of Islington' and the red flag flew over the town hall.
Highbury! I know it well... For many years, I lived just up the other end of the Holloway Road........
