I am now posting the second half of the pages of this book the first of which was published yesterday as https://derrickjknight.com/2022/07/09/seventies-city-celebrations/
Here are the pages written by Marian Lines and illustrated by Charles Keeping. As before these images may be enlarged in the gallery.
These will speak for themselves, and need no further comment from me.
The use of rhyme in these poems is very effective.
Yes. Thanks very much, Liz.
You’re welcome Derrick.
We have an industrial past. Matters have changed. But the art is lovely. Thank you, Derrick. I am now 78 despite Youthfull looks. 🙂
I like Pavement Plane Trees and Fishing the best–illustrations and verse.

It’s a delightful keepsake of the period. I noticed a page for a West Indian street band, but, without the names of the band’s members, I’m unable to learn more about the band.
I’ve had a look on Google without success, Rosaliene. Thanks very much
