    For those wondering, when ladies wanted to ride those bicycles with that long a dress, it was best to have a chain guard and big fenders so they didn't get caught in anything. Which it looks like the ladies are using here. They would have bike races dress full to the nines like that.

    Everything that was important to them, everything that felt so big and so urgent is gone. It's all just shadows now, tricks of light, sterile bits of data that give you the illusion of meeting the eyes of some who you will never, ever meet or know.

    What a wonderful scene. I couldn't help thinking how sad it was that this community would be so devastated by the Great War.
    The Accrington Pals were part of the Pals Battalions idea in response to Kitcheners call for volunteers. All the men from the same community would volunteer together to form a local battalion. The Accrington Pals first saw action on the first day of the Battle of The Somme, the bloodiest single day in the history of the British army. They were two years in the making and twenty minutes in the destruction. They lost three quarters of their number taking their first objective, the rest became prisoners in the German counter attack. Whole streets lost their fathers, husbands, or brothers in one day. Such brave, ordinary men and such a tragedy for this community. I'm sure this parade would have been a fond memory their loved ones would look back on.

      @@frankclough380 World War I is often portrayed as pointless in comparison to the rather uniquely obvious war against evil that was World War II. However, from the British perspective Imperial Germany was building a fleet designed to threaten our own home defence fleet, which was a direct challenge to our home security They had demonstrated their ruthlessness in their attempted genocide of the Harero people of German Southwest Africa before the war and their invasion of neutral Belgium demonstrated Imperial Germany's contempt for international law.
      Britain was a co-signatory on Belgiums internationally agreed promise of neutrality which meant Britain was one of the nations that agreed to defend that neutrality. As a maritime power and an Island nation with a broad overseas trade network, defence at sea and international law was of vital importance to Britain. So, in reality we had several good reasons to go to war with Germany and put a stop to them. Unfortunately, we had to do it all again 21 years later.

    A sign of how far we are already removed from this past is the number of commenters who are astonished that people living in a world of horse manure are not even bothering to avoid stepping in it. And we're not doing anything to avoid pumping hundreds of billions of tonnes of CO2 into our air and lungs. Different times, different transportation technology, different levels of tolerance.

      @fishhead06 - Wow!!! I didn't know you have managed to pump hundreds of billions of CO2 in the air all by yourself! And I say this because people have been so brainwashed into making each person feel guilty for throwing a little here and there making them believe it's them who are making this ecological damage to the planet when, in fact, it's those same accusers of the little, individual person, who really cause the damage. Can you compare your negative personal ecological imprint with that of the giant tire factories who pollute the air in unimaginable ways, or to the companies that produce chemicals so dangerous that have to be placed under tons of dirt, or radiation waste after producing and using their products (just to mention a few examples)? Those are the real destroyers of the planet. Not even all non-industrialized individuals put together could compete to reach the damaging measure of these giants. But, if you want, you can continue to feel guilty for your insignificant negative ecological impact and think you can really make a difference towards changing what the are totally uninterested to change because that is what brings them all their wealth and the power to rule you, yes, you, the little guy.

      @@robinsydney140 Dude, all I said was we (as a species, not me nor you personally, but as human beings) are emitting about 45,000,000,000 tonnes of CO2 into the atmosphere annually. I'm sorry if you interpreted my comments as either taking or assigning personal responsibility to anyone. It's a global problem; it's a global responsibility, with, yes, special responsibility assigned to those of us who are privileged to live in some of the more economically, democratically, environmentally, and climatically endowed parts of the globe.
      Interesting question to me is why people on the internet are so prone to project statements or sentiments on to people that their interlocutor never actually expressed?
