That hope was ill-founded and he returned too soon. I'd got a job, leaving early for work and stepping over his passed out frame (blocking the door to the bathroom) as I made my way to the tube station for my first wee of the day. Happy days! The Notting Hill carnival passes by your doorstep! But I don't associate Ladbroke Grove with high living.
