Most people do.
He has 4 apparently. Plus a fire screen.
Maybe bring the tram back and we’d not have the awful Xmas market up the high st.
“British Transport Films” were a staple of an evening out at The Pictures. Main feature film, the “B” Movie and if you were lucky a “British Transport Film” They were documentaries played out like a mini dramas, something warm and comforting watching them. This one is from 1950, about Sothampton Docks and the arrival of The Queen Mary…well worth a look.
The saddest part of these pictures is Southampton must have been a wonderful City in years gone by, the old station (both mainlines), the bargate, high st etc etc, now its a wankpit.
Did she just jump over that gap in the middle?
