Welcome to ...

The place where the world comes together in honesty and mirth.
Windmills Tilted, Scared Cows Butchered, Lies Skewered on the Lance of Reality ... or something to that effect.

Step Back In Time

Belfast, 1901.

This two-minute video, from the Mitchell and Kenyon Collection of the British Film Institute, does not show any historically important or humorous events. 
Instead, what one sees is a view from a horse-drawn tramcar on Royal Street in  Belfast at the beginning of the last century.
There are three companion videos posted  at the Ptak Science Books link: Manchester, Bradford, and Wigan, all in 1902
