I was a telegram boy (young postman) in London from about 1962 to 1965. I began my short career at the Eastern District Office (EDO), Whitechapel, London. I was delivering Telegrams (Mergs) by pushbike in the E1 area. My badge number was E2007 (I think). I was transferred to Poplar E13, delivering telegrams to the Isle of Dogs (now Docklands !) and to Bow E3. When I was 16 I transferred to motorcycles at Forest Gate London E7. I was then delivering telegrams to the East London area. I remember names such as : Stephen Buchanan, Ernie Padden, Johnnie Nye, Nobby Clark.
