I know the area quite well. My Mum and Dad’s families came from there. I used to love going to all the markets as a kid and later in life the Columbia road flower market. Im from Greenwich originally.
We used to go to Brick Lane and Petticoat Lane markets all the time, and Columbia road was where they filmed Goodnight Sweetheart.
Brick Lane was they used to sell goldfish in plastic bags hanging from the wall. Why has that stuck in my mind! 
Ha Ha yes, the good old days.
Pic of the pub we stopped over at in southern Scotland. The Steam Packet Inn, in the Isle of Whithorn. Absolutely lovely place, overlooking a small harbour

Ive just returned from Canada.
There were an abundance of jet black squirrels.
Didn’t realise they existed and unfortunately was unable to catch a photo of any

Yes I saw some when I was in Toronto a few years ago!
Nice pic, competition winning imo
Mind you, people might consider me a miserable so and so, as I dislike squirrels (post rats), as well disliking many other ‘popular’ things like hedgehogs, ladybirds, birds themselves, butterflies, trees. most plants etc
