I was at Dickens' house in Oct. of 1986. We had a personal tour guide back then. I remember the narrow staircase. I was so fascinated with the inks and quills. I now have my own published book. My rough copies were all done by ink and quill. Thank you for what you do. I live in a small village called Creston, British Columbia, Canada.

Having lived in Bloomsbury for many years, there is plenty of resource material available to create some very good videos about the literary figures and eccentrics who called the area their home for many years as well. May I suggest you start with the website of the Bedford Estate to learn more about the area? There are a few tours like yours sniffing around Bloomsbury now but yours could be the best with the more interesting stories than Charles Dickens who lived all over the place. But...the live Christmas Carol reading by candlelight there in the house you visited by is spectacular!
@ToursbyFootLondon9 ай бұрын
Hi Patrick Thank you for these wonderful suggestions I absolutely agree with regards to the literary figures and eccentrics , and am currently immersed in the world of The Bloomsbury Group by Frances Spalding The beauty for me in London is the opportunity to at all times to expand my knowledge , experience and understanding of every corner of this incredible City and it may take a lifetime but in my opinion that is time well spent I will revisit in the future and am always delighted with suggestions and recommendations from Londoners like yourself so thank you for taking the time to comment Christmas Carol by candlelight hope to see you there Sinead

I wouldn’t be concerned about those streets being overwhelmed by tourists. 80% these days just visit for Instagram photos of themselves standing in front of an iconic London landmark, e.g. Elizabeth Tower (aka Big Ben) London Eye, Piccadilly Circus, Westminster Abbey, Tower of London and a few others. Thanks for the walk, a part of London I like very much.
