    Lovely presentation of the rich history and architecture of King’s Cross and St.Pancras. Food halls abound with varieties of world cuisines. It’s nice to see everything so clean. Yet another need to do/see, next time in London. Thank you.

And I completely believe everything you say and if someone ever contradicts what you've shared with them they will be branded a liar to me. lol Seriously though you would have an amazing tour guide business if you were ever inclined. thank you as always for sharing this with us! xoxo

    LOL I'm an old lady and I and loved the spice girls. I knew right off and that surprised me. What a fabulous area and I agree that the architecture is amazing. At this rate I'll have to book countless holidays to enjoy all the areas you've shown us. Thanks again for all the work you put into these informative and fun video tours.

    My daughter and I have an annual trip to London and always stay at a hotel near King’s Cross. It’s so handy for everything and we love the coal drops yard area… especially Dishoom! We’ve never had a bad meal. The whole feel of the area is amazing. I’m old enough to remember how it used to be…. Certainly different now. Thank you again for another wonderful video x

    When I first moved to London in 1977 Kings Cross was an awful area, really sleazy, dirty and definitely not somewhere you’d want to hang around. I used the station regularly as I used to travel by train up to Hull to visit my parents. The area has now changed beyond recognition. Another great video Hannah! You’ve made me want to visit it. It’s not somewhere I’ve ever thought of going to on our trips to London. Will definitely check it out

    Dearest Hannah, your incredible vlogs always wake memories. Who would have thought a gassometer would make me nostalgic. When I was little, in 1950s, and we had a nice summer Sunday and my mother was not working. We used to get a bus to Brentford, another large gas works, and walk to the Thames to a where there was a very large pub, old can't remember the name (Crooked Billet? ), then walk down to Richmond Park and Hampton Court. There we would spend the day with a picnic and in the late afternoon and walk back and at the pub, there used to be a cooked seafood stall and ,if dad had money, he would treat us and we would take them home for tea. I am so loving this series, thank you so much for giving up so much of your precious free time.❤❤👋👋👵

    Those gas storage units, every British cinemaphotographer's favorite shot in black and white fifties movies. I remember seeing a photo spread in a home decor magazine in the eighties where one had been made into an interesting home conversion.❤ Thank you.

    I worked across the Euston Road in the Seventies and Eighties, before the British Library and its multiple basements were pile driven into existence. There was a potato market which became a coach park. My new wife and I, in 1981, caught a coach from there to Luton Airport to fly to Malta on our honeymoon. In 1985 we moved to Yorkshire and never returned, other than to visit. The transformation of the area is stunning! More so, because every time I visit something new appears.

    Thanks for taking us on this amazing area! Agree and love all you say about it. OMG yet another great memory when you went past the Searcy's area and seating and showing the menu card for bubbly etc.!😄🥰 We had our Wedding Reception and buffet at Searcy's In Pavilion Road, just off Sloane Street, Knightsbridge! Almost 50 years ago on Saturday 15th September 1973!! This was after our wedding in the Church of the Immaculate Conception in Farm Street, London W1! In fact we are keeping our fingers crossed to have our 50th Golden Wedding Anniversary Celebration as a 'Sparkling Afternoon Tea' at The Devon Hotel on the edge of Exeter, Devon on Sunday afternoon 17th September with some 'old' friends and family - a few were at our wedding (including my Chief Bridesmaid who is a friend for many years from our childhood! )In fact your whole vlog is wonderful with all the history you incorporated in to it, along with pretty canals, locks etc. please keep them coming - like a happy hour on our sofas watching! 😂🤩🌹🌻💐🍾🥂🍰🥧Love and best wishes Christina and Nick, Crediton, Devon UK.
