And London shops on Christmas Eve / Are strung with silver bells and flowers / As hurrying clerks the City leave / To pigeon-haunted classic towers, / And marbled clouds go scudding by / The many-steepled London sky.
John Betjeman (1906-1984), Christmas

I’m a fan of JB. There is always a nice rhythm to his work. And hid documentary ‘Metroland’ is wonderful. And free to watch on You Tube. Cheers, Pete.

I watched Metroland a couple of years ago, I couldn’t believe it had taken me years to see it. Especially as I was brought up in suburbia
