Mrs. Minchella - The monkey nut lady

samedi 6 avril 2019

I know this lady has cropped up in other threads but a recent copy of the Croydon Advertiser had a whole page about her.

She was Mrs. Minchella and was known around Croydon as Lou-Lou or just Lou and probably Italian.

As well as attending Palace games wandering along the terraces selling monkey nuts from a wicker basket she was regularly seen in the streets of Croydon, Waddon and the Purley Way Lido selling sweets from a pram she pushed around. There is also a grainy picture of Lou-Lou that is exactly as I remember seeing her at SP.
