That blows up well, lots of interesting bits and pieces.
Sadly I remember when a mere shilling bought a huge fish’n’chip dinner (takeaways in a newspaper, boom boom!)(sheet of greaseproof between the munchies and the print, of course; not many folks seem aware of that these days) — and now it’s almost ten quid? A pint of black and tan was also a shilling …
You can still get a decent helping of fish n’chips for less than £4. No newspaper anymore though. The best fish n’chips I’ve had to date however, was at a British pub over in Gaithersburg, MD would you believe it? One portion was fit for two, suffice to say I did my best to eat the lot. Waste not and all that…
Nice, including the placement of the pedestrian. The town definitely contrasts earth-toned London.
