Hello Brian,

What a great site, those pictures are so clear even the ones that have been colored, i love looking at how we used to live, the cars [or lack of them] the dresses and that most gents back then all wore hats, and of course the trade mark of what the horses left behind in the roads!

No enjoyment now in the UK for a Sunday ride out in the Automobile :lol:

Thanks for posting it mate,

Cheers,

Roger.

I'm glad you like it, Roger. :) If you're not careful you can lose track of time on that website. :agree: Seeing some of the women in those old city scenes almost makes me wish I had a time-machine. Kinda gets me into a 'Gary Sparrow/Goodnight Sweetheart' mood. ;)

I was admiring some of those fine ladies and then I realised that they are either all dead or well over 90! :lol:
