Subject: RE: BS: What has happened to London?
Yes, Arthuritis, we felt the air was rather polluted. Our skin was gritty and my hair dirty. We were v. tired when we got home to the village late at night, but we showered and got clean before sleeping!
I too remember when all the buildings were black with pollution. It did give them an air of antiquity. We passed the Tower on our way to the Palace, and it was shiny clean. I must say, we're doubly grateful and glad we live in this peaceful, green and unpolluted place. Our village has many historic buildings, and no eyesores!
