Panini's gorgeous PREHISTORIC ANIMALS sticker collection (1977) was a must for every dinosaur-obsessed kid. A real education, it featured beautiful artwork, and the Flesh-Eating Dinosaurs page didn't hold back!

This was my first Panini album. Nearly completed too. Sadly thrown away by my mother in a clearout while I was at university πŸ™

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

Excellent. Believe it used to be a nightclub down there at some point in the distant past!

Was it open downstairs? They used to have a massive space down there with stacks of Β£3 LPs and stacks of singles. Happy days indeed

Apollo 11.
Rarely seen shot of Eagle, the Moon and Earthrise, taken on this day, July 21, 1969.
Mike Collin's alternate photo is extremely well known, but this one - shown remastered and cropped - is an absolute beauty!

We need a 2-disc vinyl version of this fantastic album. Also a vinyl reissue of the first Spectrum album would be very welcome indeed

Michelle Mone can be expelled from the House of Lords by a simple majority vote in the Commons, and then in the House of Lords.

Like if she needs to go.
RT if she has to go.

Val Kilmer in Top Secret β€” set against a backdrop of WW2, but with this detour into an underwater old timey bar brawl. A brilliant moment in cinema history, it was shot at Pinewood Studios with divers off-camera ready to provide oxygen. It was filmed in 10 second takes to allow the actors to breathe
