Avenue, John's home with Aunt Mimi |
251
Menlove Avenue was John's home with Aunt Mimi from 1945 to 1963.
It was here that John was positively discouraged from playing the
guitar, with Aunt Mimi stating,"The guitar's all very well
John, but you'll never make a living out of it!" When John
became famous, he had the words framed and gave them to his Aunt.
