Guys, got the name wrong for Marie Kelly
It’s not Marie Ann Kelly as I was saying it’s actually Marie Jeanette Kelly.
So sorry don’t know where I got Mary Ann….
Left a few coins by the graveside of Marie Kelly on this walk.

Another great video. I thought I was going to be able to see my Mum's work place and where we lived, the Sheltered Housing in Lancaster Road and along the High Road. I haven't been back to Leytonstone for quite a long time. I know Mario's really well as I used to work for Krypto Security upstairs. Looking forward to the next video.

Thank you, much appreciated!
Where was your mums work place located? I did go down Lancaster road in this video it’s the part where the tardis is but I didn’t actually film much else of the road. I’ll have to head that way on another video.
I know krypto quite well I did work experience there in the early 2000s maybe around 2002 and one of the lock smiths who worked there Brian McMahon is quite a close family friend.
I hadn’t noticed at all until recently that krypto is gone from the high road sadly.
