I think I've mentioned this website before. A new article every day, he does repeat himself occasionally. 90% of them are fascinating, stories of ordinary people with extraordinary lives that no one knows about until they tell you. I've been to visit some of the places he mentions, others I already know about due to working in the area and being nosy. Just some examples to start with A place I am going to soon, hidden behind Kings Cross and St Pancras Station, just to see The Hardy Tree and the inspiration for the red London telephone box. https://spitalfieldslife.com/2018/06/10/at-st-pancras-old-churchyard-x/ Find out who actually makes ballet shoes, you'll be surprised. https://spitalfieldslife.com/2021/07/11/the-point-shoe-makers-of-hackney-x/ The story of where a famous saying comes from https://spitalfieldslife.com/2021/07/31/the-foundling-of-shoreditch-x/ I might put a few more on here at a later date as I find them again. Ones such as the transvestite of Bethnal Green and his/her electric cooker collection, The tramp so stylish he is paid to model neckerchiefs, a small shop that still has stock from the 1700s and supplies spares for the Queen's coronation and other coaches, the Bangladeshi mechanics who inhabit the hundreds of railway arches hidden away from view, the old mechanic who used to work on souping up the Krays AND the Flying Squad's cars at the same time in the 50s, the day to day life of the Raven Keeper at the Tower etc. .

RIP Sean Lock

Just a load of selfish people, right I off to get ready for my covid test ready for my hospital appointment on Sunday.

Just shoot them and have done with it.

I think i was nothing like that boring cunt Tom

Sometimes, he's been knocking his stuff out for about 15 plus years I reckon and it' covers lots of things. Lots of old house interiors and attics, crypts, old places of worship, tombs etc. I will warn you, he is a bit cat obsessed so you get the odd bit of stuff about his dead cat. Oh yes, he has photographs taken from inside the model of St Pauls Cathedral. This was how the King was persuaded to let it be built by getting inside and looking out the windows. https://spitalfieldslife.com/2020/07/10/inside-the-model-of-st-pauls-o/

Well, i can legally park in his 06 an above parking spot at the Officers Club on base so there...

Other than a couple of rides to see friends locally, to give the bike a run, I haven't ridden for a while. MOT will be due in a month or so so might make a day of it then. I'm off to the Overland Event near Oxford next month to see if I can get inspired! https://www.overlandevent.com

I wouldn't ignore him, I'd just call him a half-assed twat

Another day, another shopping trip!

Tell the French that they have to do something and they'll oppose it, tell them that they can't have something and they'll fight in the streets to get it.

Not to be left behind any other country, covid denials and anti vaccination groups have made a small manifestation in Portugal as well. A bunch of teenagers and silly people directly throwing insults at the man in charge of our vaccination program. We are no less than you all! I’m sure Admiral Gouveia e Melo was shaking in his boots at being called names

Did Tom get himself killed riding in the gutter?

Its going to be sunny I've ordered it

yep we will have a listen

Well that’s my covid test done now I have to self isolate until I’ve been to the hospital on Sunday afternoon. Think I’ll get the bike out then.

Was i supposed to post? I think i was suppossed to post, cant remember now.

At least it recognises that scooters are for bints.

I don't know that one kid couldn't take his eyes off it i think he was laughing at one point probably grow up to be a serial killer

Why has the woman got a triangle hanging off her ear ? The bloke who plays the triangle in the orchestra is going to be well pissed off

Bloody L plate over the headlight Did anyone else notice mister google two shoes didn't give way at the pedestrian crossing.

I got a great idea, put Biden in charge....

The twats got rabies he’s really barking.

So you;re telling me she's taller than i am may i assume? I always look up to taller people, weird, i just got a déjå vu feeling. ive seen this post before.

From somebody I know very well on FB who's just returned from a 30 day ban for his Vax theories...... "If I posted some of the info' that I've gathered in the past 30 days on the subject of these bioweapon injections masquerading as vaXXines, I'd be banned again within minutes for sure. The truth goes against their so-called 'community standards' and the globalist elite cabal that runs this world and who calls the shots and who has bought and paid for Ministry of Propaganda assets like FB set those dubious standards." Yeh.....he's gone totally fucking barking!

No just the vegetarians.

ok Tom

Apparently France has the most anti-vaxers in Europe.......which would back up the low vaccination statistics there.

If he came here he'd probably be another one to have me on block.

well that went straight over someones head .....

All the countries are running into the anti vax nutjobs now!

Interesting, as the official Covid app has stats on the vaccinations and says that 69.1% of the population over 12 years old are fully vaccinated. So, this chart is counting the entire population including kids. I think that the uptake of the vaccination amongst teenagers and 20-30 year olds is pretty poor, which is obviously affecting the figures too.

Biscuits!!!!...should come with a health warning.

Well spotted. Clearly not Welsh or there would be sheep close by

@Tango won't be ignoring him.......he likes the entertainment value!

No not really.

The first anniversary of my early retirement a couple of days ago. Got to say, I don't miss working. Feel for everyone who's life's are unsettled with everything that's going on at the moment. It's a tough time for a lot of people.
