EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, taken in 1969, we see a group of people enjoying a meal outside the Venus Kebab House on the corner of Percy Street in central London. The Post Office Tower looms large in the background, a symbol of modernity and progress in the bustling city. The scene is set with a charmingly worn fresco adorning the exterior wall of the Venus Kebab House, adding a touch of character and charm to the urban landscape. The group of friends, dressed in fashionable attire of the 1960s, appear to be in high spirits as they dine al fresco, savoring their kebabs and drinks. One man is seen holding a glass of ale, while another raises a bottle to toast the occasion. Despite the hustle and bustle of the busy street, the group seems to be completely engrossed in their meal and each other's company. The image captures a moment of relaxation and enjoyment amidst the hustle and bustle of city life, a testament to the enduring appeal of good food and good company. The photograph also provides a glimpse into the past, offering a snapshot of a bygone era in British history. The Post Office Tower, now known as the BT Tower, stands as a reminder of the technological advancements of the time, while the Venus Kebab House represents the diverse and vibrant food culture that has long been a part of London's rich tapestry. Overall, this photograph is a delightful depiction of a moment in time, capturing the essence of dining and socializing in central London during the 1960s. It invites us to take a step back in time and appreciate the simple pleasures of life, even as we marvel at the progress and change that has taken place over the decades.
