Release date June 1940.


Context for June '40: Dunkirk evacuation just finished. Channel Islands bombed and invaded. Paris occupied.


Interesting that this escapist propaganda (the English village as *God's gift*, "learning and loveliness" = England) still holds appeal.

shorty don't know if it's of interest ,but on James Barbers thread there's a note of ?4500 being allocated for something called the historic photos fund

East Dulwich councillor - how can I help?


"Posted by James Barber Yesterday, 01:00PM


Eaery year local ward councillors get to decide how to spend some devolved Cleaner, Greener, Safer budget. The scheme started when Lib Dems first led the council in 2002 with only one year when it didn?t operate when the Labour administration wanted to use the money on pet Olympic projects. "

    • Yes, should have given up by now but haven’t. Was waiting for my train yesterday and went into WHS on platform to buy a pack of fags. Almost feel to the floor when guy quoted me £28.00 for a packet of Silk Cut purple. Was a long day for me and thought I had totally misheard him! Asked again, only to be told that that was the price whuch is well over the odds..when I queried it as have bought, admittedly end of last year was told “ this is what management charges”. Surely this can’t be right…fags stayed in WHS paws while I bought some in Herne Hill at normal price. Still reeling over shock…..     
    • I use the one in peckham where lidles is they are really good if you need somewhere closer 
    • Going to be really inconvenient for folk to go that way as has been stated.. why not just move to Camberwell which I would assume is abit nearer and better travelling wise or have vets in both places from Lordship Lane Branch.. Must have been massive flood if going to take two months to dry out, electrical tests to make sure all good… From upstairs? Or where?
    • @selector73 Thanks!  Because we want him to be treated by the vets that know him we will have to get to the New X branch because thats where the team are based until LL reopens. Thank you again 🙏
