EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming print captured by Bela Zola, we are transported back to the 1950s on a sunny day at The Links transport cafe on the Kingston by-pass. A group of hardworking lorry drivers can be seen taking a well-deserved break from their long journey, finding solace in the simple pleasure of sipping a refreshing cup of tea. The atmosphere is relaxed as these weary travelers gather around wooden tables outside the quaint cafe. Their faces show traces of exhaustion but also contentment, knowing that they have temporarily escaped the demands of the road. The aroma of freshly brewed tea fills the air, providing them with much-needed rejuvenation. Located in outer London's Kingston upon Thames, this hidden gem has become a haven for those seeking respite from their tiresome journeys. It serves as an oasis where drivers can refuel not only their vehicles but also their spirits. This snapshot captures a moment frozen in time - an era when eating out was still considered a luxury and communal spaces like transport cafes were cherished meeting points for people from all walks of life. Bela Zola's photograph reminds us to appreciate life's simplest pleasures and to take moments to recharge amidst our busy schedules.
