A thumbs-up from me for Kier's choice of an "overcast" backscene on Hornsea Broadway, which IMO complements the urban scene. Another thumbs-up to Andy Lee for his "R&W Paul" building, the lettering (intentionally) matching that of the same firm on "Canada Street". Thanks for sharing with us.

P.S. Another great edition of EM 70s, thanks Dan.
