In 2011 I took 4 months off to circumnavigate the globe. From London I headed to Bangkok to spend half my allocated time doing the Banana Pancake trail, from which I flew to explore Central America via a short stay in Los Angeles.
Throughout this period, I kept a series of notes in a blue notebook, which I wrote up in full once I landed back in the UK.
On the back of this habit, I continued to write-up the rest of 2011.
Via here, a daily account from 2011 will be uploaded.

I live in Roe Green Village and am in the process of compiling a book and film on Roe Green Village residents covering 1920s to1950s. Your notes are really interesting and nicely done. Any chance you would have a contact that has photos or lived in the village around that sort of time who could get in touch with me?

Thanks for your comment Debbie! Your project sounds really exciting. I don’t have any direct contacts, but are you familiar with the Kingsbury Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/#/profile.php?id=220437534634455&ref=ts&fref=ts) – they have some really cool photos of Kingsbury including the Village. You could also ask the community on there for input and content. You should also consider the Brent Archives at the new Brent Museum in Willesden. Look forward to hearing more about it.
