Jeez,how we lived in those days and considered it normal.
Never seen Wilko looking so sedate
That's cos he ain't there.
Gypie Mayo had replaced him just before then.

The Egyptian- revival mausoleum of Hannah Courtoy , Brompton Cemetery, London, UK . Various sources ( including Reuters) have claimed that the mausoleum contains either a working time machine or a portal that connects to a 19th century cemetery in Paris . Strangely , the mausoleum doesn’t appear on Brompton Cemetery’s site map , even though it’s been there since 1854.

They're probably off for a pawn sandwich.

The Hawker Hunter Tower Bridge incident occurred on 5 April 1968, when Royal Air Force (RAF) Hawker Hunter pilot Alan Pollock performed unauthorised low flying over several London landmarks and then flew through the span of Tower Bridge on the River Thames. His actions were to mark the 50th anniversary of the founding of the RAF and as a demonstration against the Ministry of Defence for not recognising it.

That's like when I worked up the top of Canary Wharf. It had a great view over the Millenium dome and someone had a framed photo of the view on his desk in front of the real view.
