Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Corbyn on the Rocks in Hornsey

I came across this postcard sent to a local address in 1910. The figure on the right looked very familiar.

Uncanny, and standing to the far left as you would expect.

Does anyone else look at a date like 1910 and read it as In My Lifetime? I can still write 1976 and it looks quite correct.

I can distinctly remember writing 6/6/66 in a school book..

And following on the theme: Tottenham on the rocks on the Côte d'Azur in 1953.

You do realise Stephen that there's a whole bunch of young folk who have no idea what we're going on about!

I wrote the current year as 1916 on a cheque last week. Can't get used to this new century business.
