A look at the Piccadilly Circus of the Swinging Sixties! A lot of what is shown here no longer exists as it was soon “modernized” to meet the demands of a changing world. Also a look underground Piccadilly to see sights that few people have ever seen. Very cool video!

I hoped to see my younger self, as I lived in Leicester Sq from 1960 to 63, but the video would not play
I liked the horse-drawn flower wagon 🙂
We the modernisation mentioned never took place, and it remains much the same as it has for 100 years. Some fascinating pictures here

It’s a bit of a shame how informal we dress now.
I wish it was then!
