The Moody Blues down our street

I went to Warren Farm Primary until 1965 before going to Handsworth Grammar. I lived on Chingford Road a few doors away from Mike Pinder of Moody Blues fame (Carol Pinder, his niece, was my girlfriend at the age of 7 or 8?) and remember watching people like Peter Asher and Gordon Walker(Peter&Gordon), Denny Lane, John Lodge et al, visiting Mike Pinder’s Dad’s garage (his Studio) on our Street. I remember war games on The Green, hedgehopping and getting into lots of trouble, chasing after my mates who had cycles but I only had a scooter, ice on the inside of the house windows in Winter and an outside loo.
