October 31st 1969 - David Bowie was at a #Halloween night at the General Gordon, Gravesend, #England. The gig lasted about 15 minutes, after Bowie sang "Space Oddity", he dragged a stool on stage, along with a huge book. He sat and read poems and was soon booed off stage.

The Blacksmiths next to the marshes at Chalk, near Gravesend, Kent. Said to be the one from Dickens ‘Great Expectations’. As kids we would knock and ask for a drink of water on our way home from the marshes and Mr Prentice would bring glasses of orange out for us.
