Bonhomie



A street photographer need not stick to the street. It’s veracity we’re after. So, when I spotted a party on a recent Sunday afternoon at The Hope on Rye Lane, I ventured in. I’d read about this pub and how it was fighting closure and the fate of the building being turned into a Bet Fred. The party was to mobilise the regulars. I hope they succeed in their quest. The world doesn’t need another betting shop with its shady anonymity. Long live the bonhomie of the public house.
