Aaah, happy days, when Britain was British and the government stayed out of our lives. No constant talk of racism, the word misogyny wasn’t in use, no one except housewives worked from home, children played outside and burnt energy and scraped knees. Lost forever as all the immigrants turn our country into exactly the kind of country they are all so keen to leave!

Of course, you cannot even get Kodachrome or its imitators developed in color as they do not make the color chemicals to fini9sh them and the color was never int he actual film in those cases.

No mês passado fomos conhecer Londres, minha esposa e eu. Foi a grande🎉 realização dos nossos sonhos, ficamos hospedados no Hotel Plaza em frente da estação Lambeth North, então ficamos muitos próximos das maiores atrações da cidade e pudemos conhecer muitas delas apenas caminhando. Num dia de sol pegamos o metro e fomos conhecer tbm a famosa Abbey Road dos Beatles que fica próxima da estação St. John's Wood. Em Londres o transporte é facil. Mas a cereja 🍒 do bolo foi caminharmos de madrugada, eu e a minha esposa, debaixo de uma fina chuva prateada cantando a música "London Town" dos Wings, um dos momentos mais mágicos e inesquecíveis ao longo dos meus 64 anos de vida. Vou dormir todas as noites olhando as fotos que tirei de Londres no celular me lembrando desses momentos e pedindo pra sonhar que ainda estamos lá. Pra quem tem esse sonho e puder fazer isso eu digo, vá, vá porque vale a pena, essa experiência acrescentou muita emoção nas nossas vidas e nos deu um novo significado para entendermos o mundo...

The sound track is way over the top, which spoils it somewhat. Cars weren't loud and rickety. Otherwise a nice look at a city and a period which is still fairly recent in my memory. In fact it was in the mid 80s that they started demolishing the older buildings and began putting up the high rise monstrosities that have disfigured the city in the last few decades.

As a Yankee I worry for the our Anglo cousins. They're contributions over just the last 100 years cannot be understated. A heritage that should be protected. The same thing is happening in all the western nations. This is not some happenstance. We've tolerated the nonsense long enough.

@ttuoma93865 ай бұрын
Unfortunately, as most musicians at his age, he probably has some issues in hearing and then in this kind of acoustic environment where sound is not so clear, it is not easy to follow the grand in perfect pitch - at the same time you are singing yourself, loud. Note, Elvis is not using ear monitors, just traditional speakers in front of him, and grand is on the right. Not the easiest environment for anybody, and if you have any hearing issues, it is quite complicated really. Important thing is to understand yourself where you go - when the performance is on acceptable limits, and when it is not anymore. We have to forgive part of it in case of these old performers - if we wish to see them still.
