We lived next door but one to Geoff and his family in the 80’s. Still see his kids Lewis and Emma about as they are similar ages to myself

Can't have been that bad a life in the jungle - there must have been a good place for a shave and haircut (probably a Turkish barbers, in which case it's fair bet there was a nail bar and vape shop too).
