My grandmother Nell Newton, maiden name Simms had the corner shop in Sweeney Crescent, Dockhead for many years fro late 40s to 1966. Does anyone remember the shop?
My father and mother were both Bermondsey people, married in St James. My dad's name was John Sales my mother's Nellie but she hated the name and called herself Sue. Both served, dad RAF bomber command, trained in South Africa, based mostly in Foggia, Italy.
Mum was one of the wrens at Bletchley. Long gone both of them.
