@@stephanieparker1250 Really makes you think doesn’t it. Like time travel to be able to see these ppl. They would have been so fascinated to watch us walking around now on a magical screen hundred years ago so we’re fortunate to be able jump back a generation and watch through a window of time where we didn’t exist. I know a lady who was very anxious a lot of her life and she was always saying she felt lonely and down and she passed away recently and it’s like well what was the purpose of that!? She may as well of been happy while she was here but she wasn’t. Easier said than done I suppose. We get so caught up in our little worlds, that’s why I like to travel gives some perspective on things that we can over analyse and obsess over when in the grand scheme of things we are like a grain of sand, and so therefore so are our problems. Kind of comforting in a way and releases some of the pressure.

No ripped jeans, but horrific slums, poverty that makes out “fuel poverty” laughable, no NHS, no welfare state. Women treated like dirt still, not allowed to work mostly.

It's 2022 and they left the scaffolding on Big Ben. It's still bloody there.

I can remember a neighbour of mine who hadn’t seen London since the war years saying how London had changed for the worse. This was back in the 80’s. So much low quality modern trash replacing much superior buildings. The rebuilding of destroyed areas after the war was a missed opportunity. The last 20 or so years has seen even more low quality banality destroying the unique character of a great city.
