The Living History of Britain’s Pubs

Landlords, legends, census records, and lost taverns.

Barcelona in June 2026 was absolutely brilliant. The accessibility of Barcelona was amazing.
I will be visiting Barcelona again, but I will never be using the services of Cunard again, they were absolutely dreadful. Cunard should be ashamed. They were crap, as was ths scumbag disabled taxi which charged us 46 euros to travel from the Cunard ship back to the airport. His taxi fare always showed as 46 euros, and felt a bit like being shafted by Cunard, a member of the Carnival group. I hate scum like this, BUT sadly NOT worth a court case, but I can tell the world about the scum at Cunard, and Carnival.

I should point out that I did raise a complaint whilst on the cruise, but this was ignored and I have never heard any more of this, instead they turned their rabid dogs on me. Useless scum management at Cunard, and Carnival - getting the picture? I also believe the main law firm which takes on cases against the likes of Cunard is probably owned by Carnival, because they are absolutely a waste of time. Not a problem, as my interest is not in money, and more in awrning others about their service.
Of course you can pay me to shut up. I just like mentioning the shit Cunard service.

East London Observer 03 October 1903
Tower Hamlets, the following transfers were made:
Beer at 100 Weymouth terrace, Hackney road, Benjain Edward Skelt to Owen Eugene Goody

Along with two cousins, one of which we have only recently found, are all descendants - Grandaughters of Ada, Mary Ann & Amelia Goody. ***
Their father, our great grandfather was Owen Goody's brother and amongst some photos we were sharing we came upon the picture below of our great Uncle Owen Goody outside 110 Weymouth Terrace with his name emblazoned on the letter boarding and him standing in the doorway.
We are immensely proud of our Goody family as they all survived and supported each other through some very difficult times, so we wondered if you would like to add this photograph to the site for others to see, as being a large and extended family there maybe others out there looking for our Goody heritage too.....
