To say a big hello and thank you to all the interested people who have followed me this week I thought you might enjoy a little trip back to the 1940s and a view of London during the Blitz, in colour, which I've put together from a number of different sources.
I've just booked tickets to The Ups and Downs of @MarvellousCrag1@CinemaMuseum 20 Sept via @BillettoUK. https://t.co/b5mZmmRUMN. Very excited ! Maybe you performed with some of our former residents
Loved visiting #LondonLetterheads yesterday at the Bargehouse, Oxo Tower Wharf - and found a circus themed sign! The short films are worth a watch. https://t.co/cqqVVb1aid
