Had a day out with the family to Monmouth. To be fair, there is nothing specifically interesting about it. I took some photos that attempt to capture the mundane things that I see around me every day. I’m always surprised by these things.
In one of the many second-hand / charity shops: nothing says “1980” like a jester doll and brand new VHS tape, still in the wrapping.
This is a typical English pub, complete with yobs standing at the door having a cigarette (not allowed to smoke indoors anymore).
This pub doesn’t look like much but it’s been there a long time.
These two photos are the ambitiously named “Savoy Theatr”. It host various artists as well as cinema.
In this image, I like the dichomtomy between the much older church, and the newer buildings, that contain even newer shops.

Quick question: I see Welsh on the Inn wall plaque. Do they do this (put two lang. on signage) in England now or is this in Wales..?
Sorry, but yes it's in Wales. Kind of forgot that there is a difference. As an outsider, I mostly don't notice the difference until a I am a long way over the border.
