I avoided seeing it. As I remarked to a similar post in Another Place, were you expecting anything different?
Surely no one can be surprised? Have you seen how many building sites there are in London?
Buy 4 of the one on the left, you’ll be quids in 🙂
Simple, servants 🙂
I think it’s the block of flats that’s Art Deco rather than the interior of that particular one, which is as you say more Louis Quatorze. If he’d been from Essex.
They complained that the original set of photos were all in portrait mode. This was the corrected set 🙂
I’m sure I saw some shop that sold them in packs of 4 but since I don’t remember where I can’t really help.
Yep.
About a supermarket carrier bag full every 3rd week. Not that you can get one any more, fortunately “charities” keep shoving suitable alternatives through my letterbox 🙂 Everything else goes in the other six recycling bins.
Christ on a bike! Pass the mind-bleach! 😱😂
“The settlement of the Czechoslovakian problem, which has now been achieved is, in my view, only the prelude to a larger settlement in which all Europe may find peace. This morning I had another talk with the German Chancellor, Herr Hitler, and here is the paper which bears his name upon it as well as mine. Some of you, perhaps, have already heard what it contains but I would just like to read it to you: " … We regard the agreement signed last night and the Anglo-German Naval Agreement as symbolic of the desire of our two peoples never to go to war with one another again” The Right Honorable Neville Chamberlain FRS.
It is commonly misused that way, unfortunately 🙁
That’s about £206,000. That wouldn’t buy you my 2 bedroom 1 bathroom mid-terrace house here. And by wouldn’t buy I mean you’d be around £100k short. Different fucking worlds.
Same here 😀
I’m betting you don’t live in Turnham Green, or anywhere close 🙂
I’m assuming the cupboard next to the shower contains the khazi, with the throne facing the shower. You’d be able to sit, at a suitable straining angle but unless you’re short standing for a piss is going to be a problem. I guess the washing machine is in a communal area somewhere in the building.
Many people in that part of the world retain the ability, largely lost in the “west”, to squat with their feet flat on the floor. That reduces the strain on the knees/leg muscles while “straining “ 🙂
