One of my cousins was accepted at Oxford in the 70s and has lived and worked in the UK since graduation. My mother went to visit him when he lived in Islington, and took me with her. He took us sightseeing in London, he has a lot of friends and had just met the woman who would marry him and join our family.

@Dlrannie 😂 I was there in the mid-eighties.

@bijouxbroussard That's a great memory. I envy him for remaining in the UK. It is my second favorite spot in the world!

I was at London on New Year’s day 1984 on a bus tour through Belgium, Germany and France among others. They had a very expansive brunch at o e of the hotels and it was the first time I tried “black pudding”. The people at the Pub were very friendly and generous especially when i wore my Navy Crackerjacks.

@Pfuzylogic Yes, I was always treated well there. I never tried the pudding.

@Davemac54
When I was active Navy I always had the rule to try a food you can’t find anywhere else. Someone told me that black pudding isn’t commonly served now.

@SW-User Sorry......Manchester. London may well be a shithole now, but in the mid-eighties, it was beautiful.
