At the time I was knocking around with a trio of lads who had left school at the same time as me. We liked hanging around Greek Street and Old Compton Street, in fact anywhere in Soho where we knew the sharp boys could be found. We performed small tasks in return for a ‘floater’, a sort of retainer of a couple of pounds a week, so we always had some extra money in our pockets. As the cliques got to know us we were given more difficult jobs like sussing out how long it took the local copper to do his beat and so on. Much later in life I learnt that this was termed ‘aiding and abetting’. To us boys, however, it was all a bit of a lark and a way of earning a few bob on the side.
