Got me an autograph and if I only knew where it went, I gave it away for free! Dummy me. Oh well. I wanted my brother to take pictures, too dark or not..once in a life shot lol...oh well. life goes on. He went to Johns in Saint Johnswood and Cynthia answered the door, said John was out, which might not have been the case considering the fans could knock at the door to say hello, probably a default answer lol. He could hear Julian in the background screeching about something. He could see the infamous climbing jungle gym thing in the back yard that was..? what, a carriage or something? Was in the news. 1967. Now its the old folks home ahead of our generation lol. What highlites!!

    It was about 1977. Linda came in to the Baskin Robbins on Finchley Road and ordered an ice cream birthday cake for one of her children.
    She asked my colleague if he could deliver it to the house in St John's Wood. When he arrived with the cake 🎂 she invited him in to join the party.
    I always remembered this because she sounded like such a nice person.

    When I worked in the Saint John's area over thirty years ago I used to pass the gate to his house every morning and they were forever sealed . One day he and Linda drove out in a very expensive looking car and it is one of those moments that always stays in my memory . Later that day when I left work I saw them driving past me again in the same area. Never saw them again. The gates in those days didn't look as secure as they do now with no cameras. I think they were green in colour. One day one of his children at about five or six years of age poked her head out of the opened gate as I passed. I smiled ,said hello and she returned the greeting . No idea which one it was. During the period when he was forming the band Wings I came into the avenue and looking down the road opposite his house seated on the wall were a crowd of fans. 'Is this one of them ' one of them cried as I I made my way up the road. All heads turned to look at me and for fifteen seconds I was nearly as famous as Paul himself. Then one of them shouted out 'Nah,he's not one of them ' and suddenly I was cast back into obscurity . Oh well !

    Thanks for this! I love that house. You forgot to mention that it was one of the centres of the "Swinging London"of the 1960s. Being a workaholic, I think he bought the house on purpose to be near the Abbey Road Studios. He was the first to arrive and the last to leave. I remember a story told by Cliff Bennet, of Cliff Bennett And The Rebel Rousers who recorded Got To Get You Into My Life at Abbey Road with McCartney as producer: “We were mesmerised with the things he did,” Bennett says. “New techniques like putting limiters on the piano, stuffing the grand piano cover inside the bass drum to get that flat-slap sound, things like that. Actually, I preferred the old ‘ba-boom’ sound from a bass drum, but we went along with it.” At two am, when McCartney called it a day, Bennett still hadn’t done his vocals, so they reconvened the following morning. “Paul lived just along the road, so he turned up in his pyjamas, carpet slippers, and a jacket over his pyjama top. Must have walked round the corner like that, which I thought was hilarious.”
    That house should be a museum. Oh...if those walls could talk!

    Unfortunately being a Beatle has enormous security problems, as we all know. After what happened to John and George, there's no doubt Paul has to be extremely careful (Ringo too). They know that 99% of Beatles fans are totally harmless, even if they are annoying sometimes, because they truly love the Fab Four and would never harm them. It's the one lone insane maniac who is the problem. Hopefully Paul and Ringo and their families will be able to live the rest of their lives in peace and safety.

    I was passing through London one time and it happened to be both Father's Day and Paul's birthday. I figured I'd pass by and leave him a greeting card. I stopped a few doors down to sign the card. and just then a young woman stopped at the gate, bent down and quickly slipped something under the gate and started walking in my direction down the sidewalk. I don't think she noticed me until she was a few feet away. We made eye contact and I gave her a slight knowing smile, which she returned. I then went to the gate and slipped my card, adding it to hers.

    Beautiful house! I met Fab Macca by chance one day in the very early ‘70’s, at Apex Corner on the A1. I was working at a hardware store & was outside putting some stuff in a van for delivery when I noticed a Rolls Royce convertible pull up. A very luxy motor to see in that location, it had the soft top down & sitting inside were Fab Macca & Linda!
    Watching him get out of the car was extraordinary... he had an aura about him that I couldn’t quite believe... as he walked past he obviously noticed me gawping at him open jawed, and said ‘hi!’, I returned the greeting & asked what he was doing in the somewhat odd neighbourhood that surrounds Apex Corner... “we’ve come to feed the horses” was his reply, there used to be horses left to graze in a field further along the A41 near Spur Road & he bought some carrots for them at the greengrocers then he was back in the Roller & gone!

    It's the only house in the street that has a street lamp in the front garden. You can see it in your pictures. She Came In Through The Bathroom Window ( Abbey Road Album) was written because a fan broke into the bathroom window in that house. It was at this house where Paul threw out Ringo, after Ringo went round to ask Paul not to release his McCartney album, because it would clash with the release of Let It Be. Paul got angry. Threw Ringo out. When Ringo told John Lennon, he went round and threw a brick through Paul's window. Ah! The good old days!! 😂😂

    I have only been to the UK once back in 1991. Being a Beatles nut I was fortunate enough to visit all of the historical sites in London and Liverpool. While in London I went to Paul's home in this video (St. John's Wood). As soon as I got to his gate a red Mercedes pulled up and stopped near the entrance on the road but not turning into the small area in front of the gate. There was a blond woman sitting in the passenger seat (Linda). A man of roughly mid forties with blondish hair and a blue blazer got out and approached me. I said "this is Paul McCartney's house isn't it"? He said "no he sold it a few years ago now run along". Not one to argue and doubting myself for a moment I apologized and went on my way. I don't know who the man was but the woman was most definitely Linda. Quite a chance occurrence and as close as I've ever gotten to a Beatle.

    I was as interested in St John's Wood as Paul McCartney's home. As an avid reader of British Mysteries and vintage British Literature in general, the setting is often in St John's Wood. I had always thought of it as more suburban than it is. Of course, many years ago it perhaps seemed more so. It certainly was a setting that suggested affluence even then.

      @stevebarlow3154 3 роки тому

      If you are talking about Sherlock Holmes and the literature of the Victorian age London was smaller then. St John's Wood at the beginning of the 19th century was on the edge of the area where the better off lived. It and to an even greater extra its neighbour Maida Vale, were where rich men kept their mistresses. Hence why many houses in the area have a walkway between the front gate and the front door covered in frosted glass. During the Victorian era there was a very rapid expansion of the railways and a huge increase in the population, London became for a time the largest city in the world. Over time St John's Wood became a quiet enclave of the well to do, which it still is today.

    Wow, so you live in there! How great. It is such a beautiful place. In 1970 I used to visit this sidewalk almost every day during the month of July, He was in Scotland. But let me correct you about something. Nobody know why Jane Asher left Paul. Maybe she found him with another woman, but possibly not, as iPaul was not so dumb like that. He would have noticed she was arriving. But the main reason we don't is: Jane never said her reasons to anybody. Paul also never said anything. So it is impossible to know why she said "enough". It is very easy to imagine the reason was such an common thing. People like to imagine...and usually have not a good imagination. The prefer to repeat what happened to Cynthia and John. But Jane knew very well Paul had other affairs. That would not shock her that much. I heard they had a open relationship.
    Anyway, the couple that worked for them sold their story not only to Australia. Also to Brazil. I am Brazilian and read their information about Paul in three chapters in a Brazilian newspaper. By the way he didn't say Jane found him with another woman. He said the house had other people. A prince called Stash was living with him too and had left only one day before. Anyway, he only listened when she said: Enough. And left.
    Thank you for the video and contratulation for living in such a beautiful area.

      Jane Asher caught Paul with a girl called Frannie Schwartz who he used to knock around with at the time. It was at the period that he'd just met Linda (or just getting interested in her). I've read that it was deliberately set up by Paul to facilitate the break-up with Jane but he didn't want Linda involved.
