The New Cross House Fire - 40 Years
Today marks the 40th year of this awfully sad and tragic event ! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Cross_house_fire
My sister was meant to have been there but my folks said no.
My sister had not been in London long and Yvonne Ruddock who's birthday party it was, treated my sister as a friend from the off at the school they attended in New Cross and had invited her, A group of them were all mates together.
My Mrs was also meant to be at the party - I didnt know her then and never met Yvonne R, as I arrived in London from up north, in August that year, after leaving school but the pain and dark cloud was still there, you could feel it, it had a big big effect on young black people then and the black community, there was a lot of suspicion and a lot of unanswered questions still remain.
They'll never be forgotten - God rest their souls until that better day to come, comes.....https://www.biblegateway.com/passage...A4&version=KJV
