Maybe the cloth on the column was to display the family tartan…?
Also, did I ever mention that a distant cousin of mine married a Scottish woman and as the groom he wore a full gala kilt attire for his marriage, and the bride’s clan was kind enough to borrow him the family tartan for his kilt, rather than use a guest’s?

Notice how the boys hold hands behind the girl’s back to support her from behind, and also hold her hands so she doesn’t fall forwards.

Wood is one of the rarest meterials in the universe. Humans are even rarer than wood tho.

People are people everywhere, for good and for bad. The local tribesmen did what they could to assist the British troops fighting a war that had fallen upon the tribes from lands thousands of miles away.
George Charles “Dick” Whittington died of typhus in February 1943.
Dick Turpin died of hanging in April 1739.
He hired 5 professional mourners to follow him to the scafold, paying the them 1 billion isk each.
Back then they used more primitive methods.

Also: what’s not to like here…?
Photograph: Ms. Janette Harper with a giant Newcastle Brown Ale bottle, 1977, published on the Daily Mirror.
The bottle was a mock-up used for a series of advertisements, but other than that, that above is an image many men will appreciate… lots of beer and a hot chick…
Yes, a similar video on YT has the following footnote:
"In 1919, French Navy officer Jacques Trolley de Prévaux filmed the shattered landscapes of WWI from an airship, just months after the Armistice.
His aerial footage showed the ruins of Ypres, cratered fields of Passchendaele, and trenches stretching across France and Belgium.
A pioneer of naval aviation, Jacques used a motion picture camera aboard his dirigible to capture the destruction from above—making it one of the earliest aerial documentaries of war"
That also explains the peaceful foot and train traffic.
I’m a Virgo, I notice these things. Helped me a lot in EVE.
There are two kinds of people, those who pay attention to detail.
A Virgo and a Blonde like my sister - she though is a blonde in every sense.

Also: he was kind of hot, wasn’t he?
Photograph: Actor Bela Lugosi characterized as Jesus Christ for a Passion play in 1909, at 26 y.o. (*)
*He was born in 1882 so 27 years made sense, but he was born in october and the Passion play is played by Easter, and by Easter of 1909 Lugosi still would have been 26.
