I'll be spending a short stint at my #Stepney residence that's nestled nicely in the heart of East #London.

Years ago, I spent just over a week in one of the most remote places in western #Scotland, and therefore Britain. For years, I've intended to return but have wondered who'd be willing to venture so far with me into such terrain and conditions. I went with three people who, together with the scenery, made it my greatest journey to this day. Despite and thanks to the hardships and various difficulties, I learnt more about myself and my love for these lands than all of my foreign holidays combined. I have lived for a few decades, but those ten days or so still stand out firmly in my heart and mind. It's finally struck me that though there are obviously people who would go with me, and though it would be incredibly difficult, I may be better off making this trip alone just in case tomorrow never comes. ⏳️

The binding and beautiful tradition of the pub singalong will always outweigh any concert, club, or TV series. 🎶🍻

#London

The comforting voices and sounds of the bygone days of East London's pub life.

1970 - "When you're fighting a duel, it's got to be a very well-regulated affair." William Keith Neal explains the duelling process and fires some weaponry from his grand collection. We didn't use to muck about back in the day.

Michael Parkinson, Michael Caine, and Elton John sing "maybe it’s because im a Londoner," accompanied by a smiling audience who all seem to know the words. @BritainsPubs

Isle of Dogs (IOD), East London in the 1970s. The IOD was always a world all of its own.

Britain's pubs are the binding links between us and our ancestors. ⏳️

I tend to look down on behaviour and the things that cause it as opposed to the people carrying it out.

To deny that #Britain is not only dying, but being murdered is to be an active participant in the massacre taking place right under our noses.

If you're in the right place at the right time, you will see traces of London's true glory and its never-ending potential.
