Petticoat Lane: Every year, it seems, still more thousands remember that Petticoat Lane, in East London, lays itself out on the Sunday before Christmas to sell toys and anything that anybody may want to give away. Heres the throng round a toy stall, interested in the sleeping doll which was is guaranteed to sleep. There was more of everything this year, and the cost of giving seemed to have gone down a bit.
