🇪🇺 Simon Rae … Have ✏️ will ✍️

If you haven’t already please VOTE. (This tweet - or X - only applies to the UK which is currently in the grip of Council Elections.) (I’m not advocating that you vote for any specific party, that’s up to you, but I’m just keen on there being as large a turnout as possible.)

@tankhead666 @NatWestGroup @cityoflondon Aye, remember it well. How come it’s in your garden now? Were you part of the demolition crew? That sign has seen some comings and goings… I remember Paul Young and the Streetband playing there, and Georgie Fame. And visitors to dinner, Colin Cowdrey, Michael Foot… Good times

@simonrae @NatWestGroup @cityoflondon Great pic. You’ll have walked under this sign many times then. Now residing amongst the fake ivy in my back garden.

In the 1970s we were able to access the top of the 17-story Northampton Hall of Residence in Bunhill Row and watch the construction of the #NatWest Tower in the City of London. The sun caught the buildings when I took this photo. @cityalumni @NatWestGroup @cityoflondon
