Today, a wander around the world-wide-web.  And there’s nothing better to start with than a Jago Hazzard (or three.)  I’d love to make a model of the old Ludgate Hill. Some interesting South London history…. The London Routemaster is 70.  … Continue reading →

I think today it will be mainly buses. Let’s start with Victoria station in 1953, 1957 and 1984. And not very far away, Vauxhall Bridge Road in the 1970s. You might have found me in the picture walking from the … Continue reading →
