    I was at Dickens' house in Oct. of 1986. We had a personal tour guide back then. I remember the narrow staircase. I was so fascinated with the inks and quills. I now have my own published book. My rough copies were all done by ink and quill.
    Thank you for what you do.
    I live in a small village called Creston, British Columbia, Canada.

    Hi Sinead! I'm glad you enjoyed the Charles Dickens museum. I did visit there too on o n e of my London trips over 10 years ago. One of the things I remember was learning what a copper was from touring in the kitchen area. I hope you do make time to visit it again

    This is excellent, thank you so much. I am definitely going to the Charles Dickens museum next time we come. I am from Portsmouth and lived very close to the Charles Dickens Birthplace Museum. I've also been to Chatham and Rochester, which are full of Dickens history. Bloomsbury isn't an area I know very well, apart from the British Museum, so I'm looking forward to your next video!

    Having lived in Bloomsbury for many years, there is plenty of resource material available to create some very good videos about the literary figures and eccentrics who called the area their home for many years as well. May I suggest you start with the website of the Bedford Estate to learn more about the area? There are a few tours like yours sniffing around Bloomsbury now but yours could be the best with the more interesting stories than Charles Dickens who lived all over the place. But...the live Christmas Carol reading by candlelight there in the house you visited by is spectacular!

    • @ToursbyFootLondon
      @ToursbyFootLondon  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Patrick
      Thank you for these wonderful suggestions
      I absolutely agree with regards to the literary figures and eccentrics , and am currently immersed in the world of The Bloomsbury Group by Frances Spalding
      The beauty for me in London is the opportunity to at all times to expand my knowledge , experience and understanding of every corner of this incredible City and it may take a lifetime but in my opinion that is time well spent
      I will revisit in the future and am always delighted with suggestions and recommendations from Londoners like yourself so thank you for taking the time to comment
      Christmas Carol by candlelight hope to see you there

    I wouldn’t be concerned about those streets being overwhelmed by tourists. 80% these days just visit for Instagram photos of themselves standing in front of an iconic London landmark, e.g. Elizabeth Tower (aka Big Ben) London Eye, Piccadilly Circus, Westminster Abbey, Tower of London and a few others. Thanks for the walk, a part of London I like very much.
