Andrews of Arcadia meets the Nightwalker Uptown




Once upon a time at night in Arcadia, and especially on a Thursday, ladies and gentlemen going fishing might be tempted to use Luron which was made at the space-age ICI plant in the region known as Teeside.  Many a great catch came to the net courtesy of Luron including a large mirror carp for night fisherman Mr. A.G. Hartley.

Should you wish to discuss the virtues of Luron and Teeside or drink a quart flask of tea you are welcome to do so at my stall in Spitalfields Antiques Market which is open on Thursdays only from a half past seven in the morning until three o'clock in the afternoon.   Today, being 26th April I shall also be celebrating the night and repairing after the market to host a reading and Q & A with that other legendary night fisherman Mr. C. Yates whose new book 'Nightwalk' is being launched at dusk in the shop Rough Trade East.
