Forty years ago today as 24 year old I moved down to London. Just thought it was something I had to do. Was supposed to be for 6 months but ended up being 6 years before I moved further south still.

Being close to the biggest nursing college in the city what was there for a young man not to like? Three years in met my beautiful wife (fun had to stop sometime.)

Last Albion game with me at home was v QPR and we were second in Div1. Pretty much all downhill from there.

Absolutely loved it at the time but no way would I want to move back to the smoke or any other big city.
