If we'd what little we wanted, we'd want for nothing.

So subdued are we by the depressing conjurations of modernism that we've almost lost all memory and conceptualisation of the simpler times that made us happy.

There's absolutely no denying that historic architecture built for accommodation, battle, or worship is still far superior in class, quality, and presentation than that of contemporary architecture.

Despite some of its historic architecture being rooted in hardship, #Edinburgh is a perfect example of how stunning European cities could be if preserved properly. Edinburgh remains photogenic because of modernisms absence.

As long as there is love, there will be grief. The grief of time passing, of life moving on half-finished, of empty spaces that were once bursting with the laughter and energy of people we loved.
As long as there is love there will be grief because grief is love's natural continuation.

It shows up in the aisles of stores we once frequented, in the half-finished bottle of wine we pour out, in the whiff of cologne we get two years after they've been gone.

Grief is a giant neon sign, protruding through everything, pointing everywhere, broadcasting loudly, "Love was here." In the finer print, quietly, "Love still is."

Many have wasted years selflessly waiting for those who never appreciated us.Today's woes help this sink in. As I observe others' happiness around me, I recall every excuse of those I waited for. Every summer day or winter evening wasted is a symbol of the life we never lived.

The @ NellOfOldDrury is a glorious little pub that recently allowed us to film within its fantastic interior. As welcoming as it is wholesome, I certainly rate this #CoventGarden gem. - @BritainsPubs

This beautiful cottage was once a lovely little pub. What do you think about this holiday home? For me it's better than seeing it become a shop but I'd prefer it was still a pub.
