    The “music” in this video is horrible, strange and weird. Very inappropriate and off putting. The Collection is stunning, (I was there last December), but found they do not accept ANY credit cards in the gift shop; this is very peculiar for a major international art collection ! Why ? And the staff were snooty and dismissive. Several had no idea where the gold boxes were, or even if they had any. So much for their knowledge and qualifications for working there. And as for asking where the toilets were; well, that was the last straw. The young man at the bottom of that staircase just looked down his long nose at me and waived his arm in the air pointing to nowhere in particular. Typical of England; it is quite alright to insult people because they are only the peasants come to view OUR treasures.

    I lived in Bromley 1966 to 2003 I was a Police Officer at the Widmore Road Station (now private apartments) . In the 60s and 70s Bromley was a lovely market town with the High Street full of good quality shops. In my humble opinion the decline in the town started with the Glades shopping centre, the town lost its character and charm, when you are in these modern shopping centre’s you could be in Maidstone, Tunbridge Wells or many other towns. IT IS DEFINITELY NOT THE BROMLEY THAT I KNEW.

    Born in Beckenham in 1949 I spent a lot of time in Bromley in the 50s being taken there to the shops and to visit my aunt by my mum, (on the 227 bus!) and most of the mid 1960s was spent walking up and down the high street between the Bromley north and south Wimpy bars! It was the days of mods and rockers and Bromley was very mod. I couldn’t afford a scooter but my mate was kind enough to ferry me around on his. Bromley was very much the centre of our universe then. Sadly now it, like Beckenham, have become faceless overpriced dumps. I could never go back. So sad

    In 1963 at the age of six I fell through the (very thin!) ice in Prickend Pond, Chislehurst .. my brother dared me to cross to a small central island. I was rescued by a policeman who dashed from the nearby station (now closed) and came crashing through the ice in his hip-waders. Yuck, I can still conjure up the taste of duck-weed! Somehow I think I will end up back in Chislehurst, even though I have lived in Canada for 53 years! I really enjoyed seeing these sights, and so many of the place names are completely familiar to me .. thank you!

    Another great video;many thanks. What a lot of damage from WW II--southeast of England got hit pretty bad , being on the bombers' route from Germany and occupied Europe. Biggin Hill was then an important airport, especially during the Battle of Britain. Went to a couple of the annual air shows there, back in the 1950s. That was when there were still a few Spitfires and Hurricanes able to fly! And what a lot of modernizing and "improvements" in the last century and this, some of which didn't last that long before they were obsolete ... My father was organist for a few years at St. Paul's, Beckenham. We lived in Cator Road at the very edge of Kent, then in Elmer's End, near St. James's Church, then Rectory Road near the center of Beckenham. Relatives lived in West Wickham (Station Road) and Petts Wood (Chislehurst Road). Back then, in the 1950s and '60s, all the little communities had more of an independent feel, gathered around a small shopping center and perhaps church or school. Now all part of one huge borough of Bromley!
