We love this picture of the famous London Fog in the 1950’s which was actually a result of really bad air pollution from coal.

    Read “The Tiger in the Smoke” by Margery Allingham. It’s not only a terrific book, it’s all about “The Smoke” which is London after the second world war, and a serial murderer. You’ll love it!
