Hi Pete, I would like to ask you about posting some of your London photos on a Facebook site that discusses old London. Is that ok and if so what would you require re attribution? None of the images would be used commercially. Your pages and images are wonderful and invoke deep nostalgia; thank you for sharing them. Many thanks, Lindsay

Thanks for identifying the Cut and the Artichoke pub, Caroline, in Chapter 6: The South Side. Hope you find the photos interesting. I was nine in 1954 and even for me it seems like a different world. Again, many thanks. Pete.
