'Southwold,' (1937) is full of Stanley Spencer's strongest effects: especially the sense of close physical contact where people are clustered together. He wrote at the time of the 'dirty washing water colour sea' which was 'splashed by the homely aunties' legs.'

I love this footage (that I’ve just seen on Facebook) of Paul (Simonon) with a couple of young Clash fans singing ‘Guns Of Brixton’ ❤️
