The Sparrowhawk yard had huge green corrogated fences round it when I was a child. I used to play with one of the grandchildren.

Is that the Sparrowhawk yard at the beginning, where they come out of- by the Beehive Bridge? I grew up in Mitcham - I had moved by to Norbury by 1979. It was great to watch this as I recognised some of it- especially when the were in the town. Thanks for posting!

Yes Robby Tom is still alive and kicking and lives opposite me. Look out for a blinged up Black Mazda pickup, he is often around the Mitcham area. He deals in horses now.
