    I worked first at an advertising agency and then at Newman Street branch Post Office in the 1970s and recall my time in Fitzrovia as a very privileged time in such an elegant, diverse, historic and vibrant area. A town within a town and character and individuality in almost every side street. Splendid tour and account.

      No, not the only one here who always associates Goodge St with Donovan's song Sunny Goodge St~ also performed by Marianne Faithfull an others~ I always hear the song in my head when Googe St is mentioned. Certainly never associate it with "Boy George' although I am well aware of his music in the 80's ~ never a fan .
