Due to there being nothing open where I am at the moment I walk into McDonald's on this fine Sunday morning to be met by the relaxing scene of a man with a Pimms jug that's half full of beer arguing with the staff. I'm so used to this stuff I have to remind myself that things could be better. If I wrote what I see from hour to hour, it would be like Samuel Pepys recording the great fire of London.

Any real country is entitled to indepdence. But, what most of the liberals who wanted Scottish indepdence hypocritically claim is that they want to rejoin the EU. So it's not liberal internationalism or the rule of foreign states that bothers them, but the idea of the Anglo-Celtic Isles being united.

The Tower Bridge Hotel, 1897. (now The Pommelers Rest),

The beautiful building on the left was the Central Telegraph Office in London, photographed in 1935. This building, which opened in 1874, was closed in 1962 and, in an act of architectural terrorism, was demolished in 1967. Can you imagine how spectacular London would be if the whole place looked like the image on the left instead of the sci-fi film sets replacing it? I'd love to have been at the meeting to see who suggested and agreed upon this building, or many others like it being demolished. #RIP

This one cuts deep. My beloved grandparents, whom I cherished deeply, and my wonderful great Aunt and Uncle lived in Walthamstow agter moving in from the East-end. For this reason, I spent many years in estates and in gardens just like this. This image is of people who'd have more than likely known my departed loved ones. (Especially since they were so incredibly social and well known). It was taken on Elphinstone Road, Walthamstow, London, in the 1960s. How I miss them, and the times we had. ⏳️💔

This is a true moment caught in time. These men have a few drinks at what was called the "Christmas club" in 1923. A Christmas club was where customers paid a small amount each week to a pub so that during Christmas time they could gather and have Turkey, ham leg or other meat for their Christmas meal.

A good way to tell if someone is selfish or selfless is to observe them after an argument. An empathetic person will often feel bad for upsetting someone even when they had reason to do so. While a narcissist will show utter disrespect and feel no guilt what so ever.
