The poet's journey will take him past plague pits, over sewers and burial mounds, under the howling skies produced by City Airport; across the occult vortices of Hawksmoor churches, Ripper landmarks and gangland haunts; onward to Dagenham's Ford car plant, Rainham Marshes, the full-on estuarial blight of oil refineries and warehouses.

Sounds right up my street!

Wow, your street sounds a hoot. I never thought of Broomhill as being as interesting as that!!

BTW Thanks Jim for posting this. I bought the Guardian yesterday, and am putting off reading the Sinclair piece until the time is *just* right. Don't know if he mentions it, but his father was born in Aberdeen.

Don't make the mistake of dismissing Broomhill as a sleepy suburb of cherry blossom lined streets alive with tiny song birds, and laughing families in perfectly manicured parks!!

There may not be plague pits, or gangland haunts, but I can testify to at least one witch!! :evil:
