    My father in law waxes on about when he saw London in the late 50′s. He was returning from his time in post-war Germany.

    He says the only vehicles you would see on the streets were the buses, the cabs, and Rolls Royces. He says the men would save up money, and would buy a car. They intended that this car would be the only car they would ever own, so they were waiting to afford quality. With the prevalence of other transportation options, this was possible then. And look at how open the streets were!

    Beautiful photos!

    I miss the London I never experienced. And the building opposite Westminster Palace is so much better than the monstrosity they’ve built their now with its awful little tesco metro.
