It was 1973 and the bomb that exploded at the Railway Station triggered a memory for Janet Foster, taking her back in time to the 1950’s when she was a young girl.The post war years in London’s East End was a tough time for families still clearing up from the blitz and struggling to come to terms with the loss of loved ones.The Foster family and their relations in Hall Road, Stratford were no exception and were looking forward to celebrating the Queen’s Coronation with great gusto.Will Foster grinned at his family, “It will be a time of great rejoicing for everyone” he said “It will be a time to reflect on the past and look forward to the future”As the Coronation day dawned and the Celebrations began however, a different kind of struggle was to take place in Hall Road, a struggle that threatened to break the ties of love and tear the once close knit families apart.
