Love this #F1 photo from 1976, a year I remember well. Such variety in car designs at that time...a year or two before the Lotus ground effects revolution changed everything.

Star Trek The Original Series scene. We're on the bridge of the Enterprise, point of view from the captains chair looking forward. Sulu is at his station just ahead and looking back at us if to say "are you seeing this shit?" Beyond Sulu is the main view screen, where Abraham Lincoln is pictured in a large chair with space behind him. Closed caption reads, "I AM ABRAHAM LINCOLN."

A Class 810 train next to a Class 222 train at London St Pancras train station
What a dream! What a brilliant day!
Got to work 810s on their first day in traffic with 1C59: 1400 Sheffield to St Pancras being worked by 810010
The reaction to these trains have been really positive and everyone was really enjoying themselves, both crew and passenger π
What... a... day!

We lost our Julie earlier this year. She had a roughly annual attempt to die in new and exciting ways. Sepsis, anal gland tumour, fistula caused by same, gall bladder tumour, finally cheating by doing two in the same year and having a stroke. She is sort of missed, sort of not.

A steam locomotive in the early morning sun, surrounded by clouds of steam as it heads up a main line.
It's a mainline steam day here in Putney, with No 35028 Clan Line hauling a Christmas Carol special to Sherborne in Dorset.

It's no wonder they aren't "spending like retailers need them to."
When 70% of the economy depends on consumer spending, people need money to spend. It's as simple as that.
Among other issues with Zipcar's model in London: Having to negotiate individually with 32 boroughs, some of which charged thousands of pounds per car. Meanwhile, Croydon council outsourced much of their employee car fleet to Zipcar and may be a bit screwed. www.londoncentric.media/p/zipcar-lon...
