A bit of history at Hackbridge station. This pair of signs dates back to the short-lived Overground Network (ON) which existed between 2003 and 2006. It was the forerunner to the London Overground network - right down to its use of orange!

Here I reach the end of my Sutton odyssey, and somewhere entirely 21st century: the BedZED estate, designed to be the first zero-carbon housing scheme in the country, and its distinctive ‘wind scoops’ on the roof (also drawn by me for the book).

The 1980s were genuinely fucking mad

A Polish girl from Hackbridge became the biggest TV star/singer for a brief period

Made it in the US

And launched The Simpsons

You couldn't make it up

We'd be more worried about running into Hackbridge Harry and the Bog End firm if we were you. Moody old mob them. Proper wrong'uns. 😆

More for the Hackbridge pension pot, I hope I don't get hassled by gold digging women of loose morals, who only see me for my vast wealth.
