Hello from Canada. Your work provides such a valuable and relatable glimpse of history to young people by bringing these images to life. Thank you for what you do.
The photo to which you refer is a little misleading. The lady and her two daughters are standing on the roof of the then brand new Hillcott House, part of the new Haggerston council housing scheme in the east of London which was constructed between 1935 and 1948 as a slum-clearance project. They are looking down at the empty Victorian dwellings still awaiting demolition. Perhaps they had previously lived in one of the slum houses and have been allocated one of the shiny new flats. Ironically the Haggerston housing estate, which was bombed in the war, has itself now been swept away.
Maybe me and my girl can dress up at the Del Mar (California) Horseraces on Opening Day next July for the hat contest like that couple from Royal Ascot.....hmmmm
Absolutely loved all the pictures. Especially the wine merchant (great suit), the three nifty dressers from Bristol, the brave anti fascist girl, the 4 girls going for coffee and the two girls on the bike. My mum would have been a teenager during most of these times. Amazing.
Yes, oh The Empire, when we all knew we were the chosen ones and the colonies were aware of their place in the system. Pity the cameras didn’t go to the poverty of the east end, or the mill towns in the midlands, or the pit villages of Durham and Northumberland.
How did it work with the refreshment trolley? Did the railroad company had universal pottery, you took your tea with you on the train and someone else collected the cups afterwards? Or was the train on a platform for so long that you easily could drink your tea and leave the cup over there?

Which music did you use at the beginning?
Why is is it, that people like to stick to such impressions of yesteryear?
Is it, because they hate, what they have to face today?
can you, answer that question?
@@MrDaiseymay
I've mentioned a possible answer.
How lovely people dressed back then, no going shopping in pyjamas.
Le bon vieux temps... A Paris c était le même bon temps
7:38 - Beatrice and Blanche Hopkins were in a previous video - captioned as being in Manchester in 1910.

People had pride
The kids playing cricket on the streets of London is a bit weird I must say .
... nO obeses back then !
I notice that in all old photos in the US.
Because the majority of the people were struggling just to get by.
@ But they look very well dressed and they didn’t have ‘junk food’ and processed foods. No fast foods and take out that we know.
@@sandramichaud8033 Absolutely right
