VIJAY

Vijay Menon was a devout Hindu. He trained as a Ship's Engineer and later came to London in the 1960's to work in marine insurance at Lloyds. One day, by accident, he found himself in a Christian church service at St Helen Bishopsgate. By the time he realised where he was, the press of the crowd made escape impossible and so he had to sit through the service until the bitter end.
