Victoria doesn’t like to stay still

I’ve been living in Brixton for a long time, 30 to 40 years, back when there was no station. I remember it was built in 1971… I was a dress designer for 55 years and I enjoyed it. But my daughter said, “No more, you need to rest.” We enjoy ourselves here at these lunches. Ching Wah [from Clapham Park Project] is very nice and organises nicely. 100% praises! And I like to dance. Anywhere. I used to go to Waterloo Action Centre for walking. And recently I took a picture with Father Xmas at an event and they put it on the Internet and people said they saw me but I didn’t. When are you going to give me my picture?
