This photograph bought back such memories for me. I was born in Edith Grove, Chelsea in 1940 - moved to Langton Street, Chelsea, got married at Chelsea Old Church in Old Church Street, Chelsea. Lived in Fulham, Sands End for 4 years, moved to Sussex and migrated to South Australia in 1973 - have been back several times - each time more dissapointed than the last time! Seeing the photograph of the Houseboats moored along the embankment, which I believe is now are THE PLACE to live in Chelsea reminded me of friends I went to school (Kingsley Secondary School in Chelsea) with friends whose parents couldn't afford to live in a flat or house but could afford to live in a Houseboat - that was in 1945 - 1955 - suspect one has to be a Millionaire now to live there!! The house that we lived in - Langton Street- would be worth an absolute fortune these days.Lovely memories but Australia in NOW our home and we just love our life here.
