Someone beeping the Mrs is a compliment compared to the risks that she faces in modern Britain.

1930s - "The English village is traditionally built round a central patch of grass, the village green".

You're being dropped off at Nan and Granddads for the weekend so that your parents can take a trip to the cotswolds.

The word "neighborhood" (or "neighbourhood") originates from the (Middle English) word "neigheborrede," which combines "neighbor" (meaning "one who lives near") with the suffix "-hood," indicating a state, condition, or quality. Thus, "neighbourhood" essentially means "the state or condition of being neighbours" or "the area inhabited by neighbours." With this in mind, we can decipher that in today's time, we have few neighbourhoods in comparison with human storage facilities.  

My beloved #England

#York

As someone who was raised in an around a large city, I have found that the most comforting and homely places are where I appear and feel to be the odd one out due to the many defence mechanisms I've subconsciously adopted growing up in a hostile environment

Communism has always been the controlled opposition to the controlled disposition of capitalism.

Beautiful towns in places such as #Derbyshire have strict rules as to how you repair or build within the area. Therefore, these newbuilds clearly have a far more presentable appearance than any we see in and around cities. I have said for years that there's no reason this rule shouldn't apply nationwide as there is absolutely no need or excuse for a single building to exist in Britian if it doesn't compliment the landscape and the buildings around it. If it isn't culturally and visually pleasing, it literally doesn't need to exist. Think about that and then remind yourself not only how many depressing buildings you see every day, but how much better the country would be if this rule was applied everywhere.

Never give up never giving up.

As with the rest of the animal kingdom, there are many humans who'll instinctively live their entire lives without ever actually acknowledging the fact that they're alive.

1981: "I can literally cry when I'm singing." Val Lambert performing during the final days of 'The Music Hall'. Little did she realise that she and those watching were, in fact, part of the dying days of a great tradition that kept us entertained, emotionally stimulated, and together. She may have been emotional whilst singing, but imagine how much more heartbreaking it would have been if she and the audience knew that they were the last of their kind.

"Progress" has become a dirty word.

Tom Cribb The Bare Knuckle Publican - 36 Panton St, #London, #SW1Y

During the 17/1800s, bare knuckle pugilism was a major part of society. A charming public house on Panton Street was owned by one of the most successful fighters to have existed. This is the story of Tom Cribb, his public house, and the world of bare knuckle boxing. Just like today, it was an opportunity for the common man to both raise his standard of living and to become a famous name among the highest members of society.
