London: City Road [EC1V 2NR] – Shoreditch Side-Street “Not a Toilet”! (5.11.2024)

After being in the vicinity of Moorfields Eye Hospital (City Road – Shoreditch – East Central London), we had just visited a new Chinese Supermarket [Fu Lai], we stumbled upon a very strange side-street which cannot be fenced-off because it is publicly accessible. We had seen this place years ago – but we did not record it at the time. Apparently, the sign on either side of this narrow in-dent states that the area is NOT a “Public Toilet”! How odd! This is a posh place full of new high-rise (and incredibly expensive) flats strictly for the elite. As there are no public houses of clubs – it is difficult to understand just why it is that the local population would use this side-street as a toilet. It seems to me that this might be a fake landmark designed to attract bemused tourists and incredulous locals. Perhaps an urban myth.

James Cameron: Netflix Biopic ‘Titan’! (22.6.2023)

A leaked source has suggested the title will be ‘Five Billion Dollars Beneath the Waves’ – whilst EMI are rumoured to be in negotiations with Ringo Starr regarding a ‘Special Re-Release’ of his ‘The Beatles’ hit single – ‘Yellow Submarine’! King Charles is said to have paid tribute by flushing a flower down one of the toilets of Buckingham Palace (facing West) – whilst the Daily Mirror has changed it’s lead head line from tributes ‘flood in’ – to tributes ‘roll in’! Yes, it’s hypocrisy aplenty!

WWII British ‘SS’ Unit – How the ‘British Legion’ Fought for Hitler! (19.5.2023) 

August 1943: Special Squad 999 and Special Squad 517 arrange for the establishment of so-called ‘Holiday Camps’ for British POWs – in order to identify former members of the British Fascist Union – as well as to encourage any anti-Communists who might express a desire to join the BFC. Around a dozen volunteers join the Detachment. The project is declared a failure. Indeed, British and Commonwealth POWs directly ‘mock’ SS recruitment by using their Nazi German propaganda leaflets as ‘toilet paper’. Hitler is ‘thanked’ by the British POWs for ‘improving’ the quality of POW Camp toilet paper! Hitler reacts with ‘anger’ and spirals into a week-long frenzy!

Croydon Aerodrome: The 1928 Disappearance of Alfred Loewenstein! (20.4.2023)

His wife and his four employees all agreed that when returning from a visit to the toilet (situated at the rear of the aeroplane) during the flight – Alfred Loewenstein mistakenly opened the only door in the aeroplane – adjacent to the toilet – (whilst flying over the English Channel) – a misjudgement that caused him to fall 4000 feet to his death! The Pilot and Engineer were sat in the cockpit at the front the aeroplane and had no idea what was happening toward the back – certainly no alarm had gone off and there had been no sudden depressurisation of the interior! Incredibly, the British Pilot –  Donald Drew – (once alerted to the situation) managed to immediately land the aeroplane on a nearby beach (under the direct control of the French military). After being released by the French military he then successfully navigated the aeroplane (and its occupants) to the airfield at Saint-Inglevert, Pas-de-Calais – also in France.
