Little details

The sidewalks here are signed and dated (presumably by the contractors who built them). For example, outside these flats you find McGettigan's sidewalks, dated 1941, and in the next street, sidewalks by A. E. Clarke, 1935.

I also like the way the traffic lights tell you to "Wait!" when you press the button. It's so imperious I wonder what would happen if I crossed against the red - "I THOUGHT I told you - "
