  • The Barbican

    I love those flats.
    Royal Doulton (Edit: it’s Twyfords and you can still buy them but I think they’re NOS) still make those weird but excellent vertical basins.
    😂

    I got lost leaving a flat there in the early hours very much the worse for wear with (now ex) Mrs. Bird, we literally wandered around trying to find a way out for a lifetime until we heard footsteps and ran to them in desperation.

  • The whole place is like some dystopian novel. I had 3 men turn up at the front door one day to let me know the immersion tank was overheating!

    Still have a lampshade from there which I think is original.

    Being lost started off as amusing, especially as we realised we’d escaped a probable MMMF situation, then we got irritated, the high wore off and we started getting a bit concerned.
    There’s a lot to love in the Barbican but it was never user friendly.

  • It always reminds me of the film Logan’s Run when I’m in there. What the future looked like 50 years ago.
