the past I loved London for the usual site-seeing that attracts visitors but I now can’t wait to re-visit London but to your part. I think it’s for the people, the trades, the characters and the genuineness of it.
Please never stop sending these out , I forward some on to my friends and family who I think will be fascinated by that particular day’s topic.

Click twice for full-screen shot – and notice the two wooden barrows still in use just 5 years ago.

And I’m writing this from where I live in the Pennines!

Thank you Gentle Author.
