    This is an interesting animation of what London around the time of the Great Fire could have looked like if there weren't any people.

    I liked it and thought I should share it

    I didn't see any advertising of stuff for sale, only advertising for free stuff. If any other mods see commercial stuff perhaps they could break the link.

    That is so amazing. It reminds me of how the old part of Canterbury still looks, but on a much larger scale.

    I am working my way through this site- it will keep me occupied for the rest of my days!

    Just watched a free animated, 7 minute movie "Special Delivery' Talk about convoluted, clever thinking. Hilarious story won 1978 Oscar for best animated short film.
