Lovely photos darling. Laurence Olivier is my all time favourite actor so I was particularly interested in the connection with the church . His father was also rector in Letchworth - a town not too far from me.Stay warm and safe today cc😘
😘

Terrific photos you've shared with us again. So thank you 📸👍!!!! Does that mean after all your busy walking and photo taking, that your jokes are moved to the back of your "talent list"?📜 They will, hopefully, be coming back some day soon, lol 😂😂. 🐿🌈😷.

Thanks Bazzak for another lovely walk and accompanying pictures!
Ever thought of being a tour guide / guided walks when we welcome tourists to London . You could guide them with photos too .
Thanks for another group of interesting photos Bazzak. These little snippets of history certainly break up the monotony of our lives at the moment.
