UPCOMING Pub/History #Tour
#ROTHERHITHE (Borough of #Southwark)
Date: 27th September
Meeting at: #Rotherhithe Station
Time: 11: 30 AM
This tour will explore the industrial age of Britain and the birth of America. Rotherhithe is where many pilgrims who went to America (the new world) lived and where they departed from. Rotherhithe has a host of history covering piracy, the docks, and much more. Please keep in mind that there's little at the station so if you get there early there's not much in the immediate vacinty until we start walking.
Join us for a walk and a few refreshments as we delve into the living museums of #Britain.
The tours will last between 2-1/2 to 3 hours (usually more) and will end in a pub.
Prices: £20 per ticket (for over 18s),
16-18: £10
Under 16s: Free (If accompanied by a paying adult)
Thank you to those who've attended so far. I look forward to seeing you again and meeting new people. 🤝

English households of the 1950s discuss how they budget to make life work in beautiful Britain.

It would be absolutely wonderful if there were places that were as culturally stimulating and socially binding for the people of Britain as its beautiful pubs. But unfortunately, there isn't.

Have you noticed that it's always our wonderful old brickwork and tunnels that have this noncy rubbish sprayed all over it? It's never the many ugly newbuilds going up. If I had my way, this would be methodically cleaned and protected instead of being plastered with perverted symbolism and being tackified with overtly ugly colour schemes.

If you love London, but this video of Brixton in the 1980s doesn't cut you deeply, then, you never really loved London.

The Soho of the 1950s certainly looks far better than what it's since become.
