Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2KAHRW4 - Betty Campbell MBE (6 November 1934 13 October 2017,born Rachel Elizabeth Johnson) was a Welsh community activist, who was Wales' first black head teacher. Born into a poor household in Butetown, she won a scholarship to the Lady Margaret High School for Girls in Cardiff. Campbell later trained as a teacher, eventually becoming head teacher of Mount Stuart Primary School in Butetown, Cardiff. She put into practice innovative ideas on the education of children and was actively involved in the community.
Betty Johnson became pregnant at the age of 17, while she was doing her A-levels. She left school when she married Rupert Campbell, a fitter's mate, in 1953. Betty Campbell had four children, one of whom had special needs. She had 14 grandchildren and 17 great-grandchildren.
In 1960, when Campbell already had three children, she discovered that Cardiff Teacher Training College had started to enrol female students. Campbell applied, and was one of only six female students to be admitted.
Campbell's first teaching post was in Llanrumney. She soon returned to Butetown, getting a job at Mount Stuart Primary School, where she taught for 28 years. As a black teacher she experienced hostility from some parents: They hadn't seen a black teacher before. It was as if you could do a job, but if you're black you weren't quite as good.
Campbell was inspired by a trip to the US where she learned about anti-slavery activists like Harriet Tubman and the civil rights movement. When she became Wales' first black head teacher at Mount Stuart in the 1970s, she began teaching children about slavery, black history and the system of apartheid which operated at the time in South Africa.
Speaking later in the Senedd, Campbell explained: I was determined that I was going to become one of those people and enhance the black spirit, black culture as much as I could. Campbell helped to create Black History Month and taught a series of workshops on the role of Butetown's citizens

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JTNA3J - Candle making was developed independently in many places throughout history.
Dipped candles made from tallow were made by the Romans beginning about 1000 BCE. Evidence for candles made from whale fat in China dates back to the Qin Dynasty (221206 BCE). In India, wax from boiling cinnamon was used for temple candles.
Candles were primarily made from tallow and beeswax in ancient times[when?], but have been made from spermaceti (from sperm whales), purified animal fats (stearin), and paraffin wax in recent centuries
The manufacture of candles became an industrialised mass market in the mid 19th century. In 1834, Joseph Morgan, a pewterer from Manchester, England, patented a machine that revolutionised candle making. It allowed for continuous production of molded candles by using a cylinder with a moveable piston to eject candles as they solidified. This more efficient mechanized production produced about 1,500 candles per hour, (according to his patent, with three men and five boys [the machine] will manufacture two tons of candle in twelve hours). This allowed candles to become an easily affordable commodity for the masses
In 1848 James Young established the world's first oil refinery at the Alfreton Ironworks in Riddings, Derbyshire. Two paraffin wax candles were made from the naturally occurring paraffin wax present in the oil and these candles illuminated a lecture at the Royal Institution by Lyon Playfair. In the mid-1850s, James Young succeeded in distilling paraffin wax from coal and oil shales at Bathgate in West Lothian and developed a commercially viable method of production. The Paraffin wax was processed by distilling residue left after crude petroleum was refined.
By the late 19th century, Price's Candles, based in London was the largest candle manufacturer in the world

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JJEPMG - Parliament Square is a square at the northwest end of the Palace of Westminster in the City of Westminster in central London. Laid out in the 19th century, it features a large open green area in the centre with trees to its west, and it contains twelve statues of statesmen and other notable individuals.
As well as being one of London's main tourist attractions, it is also the place where many demonstrations and protests have been held. The square is overlooked by various official buildings: legislature to the east (in the Houses of Parliament), executive offices to the north (on Whitehall), the judiciary to the west (the Supreme Court), and the church to the south (with Westminster Abbey).
Location
Buildings looking upon the square include the churches Westminster Abbey and St Margaret's, Westminster, the Middlesex Guildhall which is the seat of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom, Government Offices Great George Street serving HM Treasury and HM Revenue and Customs, and Portcullis House.
Roads that branch off the Parliament Square are St Margaret Street (towards Millbank), Broad Sanctuary (towards Victoria Street), Great George Street (towards Birdcage Walk), Parliament Street (leading into Whitehall) and Bridge Street (leading onto Westminster Bridge)

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JGAW2D - The Midland Hotel is a grand hotel in Manchester, England. Opened in 1903, it was built by the Midland Railway to serve Manchester Central railway station, its northern terminus for its rail services to London St Pancras. It faces onto St Peter's Square. The hotel was designed by Charles Trubshaw in Edwardian Baroque style and is a Grade II* listed building.
The Midland Hotel at night
Built at the junction of Peter Street and Lower Mosley Street opposite Manchester Central railway station, terminus for Midland Railway express trains to London St Pancras, the hotel was designed by Charles Trubshaw and constructed between 1898 and 1903 for the Midland Railway Company at a cost of more than £1 million. In 1908, The Railway News reported that the hotel had over 70,000 guests in its first year and described it as a twentieth century palace. The hotel had a 1,000-seat purpose-built theatre where opera, drama and early Annie Horniman performances were staged, and a roof terrace where a string quartet performed.
The Midland Hotel was allegedly coveted by Adolf Hitler, who maintained a keen interest in architecture, as a possible Nazi headquarters in Britain. American intelligence speculated that the area of Manchester around the town hall was spared from bombing during the Second World War so as not to damage or destroy the Midland Hotel.
Charles Rolls met Henry Royce in the Midland Hotel, leading to the formation of Rolls-Royce Limited in 1904. The Queen Mother dined in the hotel's Trafford Restaurant in November 1959 after attending a Royal Variety Performance at the Palace Theatre. The Beatles were famously refused access to the French Restaurant for being inappropriately dressed

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2CB00B3 - By the middle of the 15th century the population of the town had increased to about 1,300 people and, even though travelling was hard, Warrington's markets and fairs were known far and near. The lanes around the market became so crowded with stalls and animals that an open space had to be made in the north west corner of the crossroads. On early maps this was called the forum', and later the corn market'.
The rights to collect tolls on these markets and fairs remained with the barons of Warrington, and later with the lords of the manor, until 1856 when the new corporation bought them from John Ireland Blackburne, the then Lord of the Manor.
The Victorian market
Three years later the Warrington Improvement and Market Act said the corporation could hold and maintain a market, and could also to build on any land purchased under the powers of the Act, or on any land forming part of any street. The buildings were market houses and places for the sale of cattle, hay and other articles.
After much debate a new market hall for meat traders was built in 1856, which was an impressive brick and stone building.
It was extended in 1873, adding a cast iron-framed fish market hall. Later, a glass-roofed general market hall was built on land behind the Barley Mow Inn.
The market in the 1960s-1970s
By the late 1960s, the Victorian market halls had become outdated and they couldn't meet the modern standards of health and hygiene. It was impossible to build a new market around the old without stopping trading for a long time.
When Warrington became a New Town, the town centre was redeveloped and the market was moved to Bank Street, where it would provide a counterbalance to the new Golden Square shopping centre.
The new market was designed on three levels, based on the natural fall of the ground, meaning that each floor came out at ground level. It gave service access to the back of shops on Bridge Street via a tunnel from the basement.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AYHHNJ - Every year on June 16th many James Joyce enthusiasts, some dressed in Edwardian costume, re-enact this epic pub crawl, and though it's referred to as a literary event' it's basically an excuse for lots of drinking broken up by a bit of walking and the reading of various excerpts from the book. The event is known as Bloomsday and the first mention of such a thing was found in a letter from James Joyce to a Miss Weaver, dated June 27th 1924 and referring to a group of people who observe what they call Bloom's Day' June 16th. The book itself must have made a big impression on someone back in the 1970s as the hotel was named after one of the story's main characters.
Fast forward to the present day and we find James Earley, a Dublin artist whose works are based on his family's artistic past within Irish stained glass art. James has been producing artworks in public spaces since 1997, playing an active role in the Irish graffiti movement, and from 2010 has developed abstract figurative works based on the principles and beauty of stained glass. He has travelled widely with his art throughout Europe, Asia and America and has worked on a variety of large-scale projects with various art-based organisations and multi-nationals which support the arts.
In 2014 James was commissioned to paint the exterior of Blooms Hotel
the project took a full year to complete and to date is the largest public artwork in Ireland. When I first saw it I was quite surprised that this street art wasn't just part of one wall, it was the whole exterior of the building. With my liking for bright colours and abstract, psychedelic designs I just had to take a few photos although the names on the pictures meant nothing to me at the time until I did a bit of later research and found the connection to James Joyce's Ulysses

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy EDR4X1 - Postage stamps and postal history of Australia
The six self-governing Australian colonies that formed the Commonwealth of Australia on 1 January 1901 operated their own postal service and issued their own stamps see articles on the systems on New South Wales (first stamps issued 1850), Victoria (1850), Tasmania (1853), Western Australia (1854), South Australia (1855) and Queensland (1860). Under section 51(v) of the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution 1900, postal, telegraphic, telephonic, and other like services became a Commonwealth responsibility.
The Commonwealth's Postmaster-General's Department became effective on 1 March 1901 (this agency would be disaggregated on 1 July 1975 in part into the Australian Postal Commission trading as Australia Post). All then-current colony stamps which continued on sale became de facto Commonwealth stamps. Some of these stamps continued to be used for some time following the introduction in 1913 of the Commonwealth's uniform postage stamp series. These stamps continued to be valid for postage until 14 February 1966 when the introduction of decimal currency made all stamps bearing the earlier currency invalid for use.
There have been many special issues. The first Christmas stamp appeared on 6 November 1957. In recent years, designs for the Christmas issue have alternated each year between the religious and the secular. From 1993, in October of every year, Australia Post has commemorated Stamp Collecting month with special issues, typically featuring topics that are of interest to children such as pets, native fauna and space. Commencing with the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, during the Summer and Winter Olympic Games, stamps featuring Australians who have won an Olympic gold medal are issued on the next postal business day after the achievement.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy EDR4XB - Postage stamps and postal history of Australia
The six self-governing Australian colonies that formed the Commonwealth of Australia on 1 January 1901 operated their own postal service and issued their own stamps see articles on the systems on New South Wales (first stamps issued 1850), Victoria (1850), Tasmania (1853), Western Australia (1854), South Australia (1855) and Queensland (1860). Under section 51(v) of the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution 1900, postal, telegraphic, telephonic, and other like services became a Commonwealth responsibility.
The Commonwealth's Postmaster-General's Department became effective on 1 March 1901 (this agency would be disaggregated on 1 July 1975 in part into the Australian Postal Commission trading as Australia Post). All then-current colony stamps which continued on sale became de facto Commonwealth stamps. Some of these stamps continued to be used for some time following the introduction in 1913 of the Commonwealth's uniform postage stamp series. These stamps continued to be valid for postage until 14 February 1966 when the introduction of decimal currency made all stamps bearing the earlier currency invalid for use.
There have been many special issues. The first Christmas stamp appeared on 6 November 1957. In recent years, designs for the Christmas issue have alternated each year between the religious and the secular. From 1993, in October of every year, Australia Post has commemorated Stamp Collecting month with special issues, typically featuring topics that are of interest to children such as pets, native fauna and space. Commencing with the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, during the Summer and Winter Olympic Games, stamps featuring Australians who have won an Olympic gold medal are issued on the next postal business day after the achievement.

Under section 51(v) of the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution 1900, postal, telegraphic, telephonic, and other like services became a Commonwealth responsibility.
The Commonwealth's Postmaster-General's Department became effective on 1 March 1901 (this agency would be disaggregated on 1 July 1975 in part into the Australian Postal Commission trading as Australia Post). All then-current colony stamps which continued on sale became de facto Commonwealth stamps. Some of these stamps continued to be used for some time following the introduction in 1913 of the Commonwealth's uniform postage stamp series. These stamps continued to be valid for postage until 14 February 1966 when the introduction of decimal currency made all stamps bearing the earlier currency invalid for use.
There have been many special issues. The first Christmas stamp appeared on 6 November 1957. In recent years, designs for the Christmas issue have alternated each year between the religious and the secular. From 1993, in October of every year, Australia Post has commemorated Stamp Collecting month with special issues, typically featuring topics that are of interest to children such as pets, native fauna and space. Commencing with the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, during the Summer and Winter Olympic Games, stamps featuring Australians who have won an Olympic gold medal are issued on the next postal business day after the achievement.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DJ7B0B - Beer in Belgium varies from pale lager to lambic beer and Flemish red. There are approximately 180 breweries in the country, ranging from international giants to microbreweries
Beer in Belgium dates back to the age of the first crusades, long before Belgium became an independent country. Under Catholic church permission, local French and Flemish abbeys brewed and distributed beer as a fund raising method. The relatively low-alcohol beer of that time was preferred as a sanitary option to available drinking water. What are now traditional, artisanal brewing methods evolved, under abbey supervision, during the next seven centuries.
The Trappist monasteries that now brew beer in Belgium were occupied in the late 18th century primarily by monks fleeing the French Revolution. However, the first Trappist brewery in Belgium (Westmalle) did not start operation until 10 December 1836, almost 50 years after the Revolution. That beer was exclusively for the monks and is described as dark and sweet. The first recorded sale of beer (a brown beer) was on 1 June 1861

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy E6HY4W - Being healthy is also about what you eat - choosing the right food. It is important to enjoy the food you eat - and eating in a healthier way may even be cheaper!
Our food is filled with colours, salt, hidden sugar and other elements.
There is a direct relationship between your level of physical activity and how much energy you use up from the food you eat. If you eat more than you use the surplus energy is stored as body fat
this means you will become overweight which in itself increases your risk of disease and disability.
The risks to you: Coronary Heart Disease, high blood pressure, non-insulin dependent diabetes, constipation, joint pain, being out of breath. Your risks multiply if you eat too much animal fat, smoke, drink alcohol and take very little exercise

Temple Bar (in Irish: Barra an Teampaill) is an area on the south bank of the River Liffey in central Dublin, Ireland. Unlike the areas surrounding it, Temple Bar has preserved its medieval street pattern, with many narrow cobbled streets. It is promoted as 'Dublin's cultural quarter' and has a lively night life that is popular with tourists. Temple Bar is in the postcode Dublin 2 (D2), and has an estimated population of 3,000.
The area is bounded by the Liffey to the north, Dame Street to the south, Westmoreland Street to the east and Fishamble Street to the west. It probably got its name from the Temple family, who lived in the area in the 17th century
Sir William Temple, provost of Trinity College Dublin in 1609, had his house and gardens here. However it got its name, the earliest historical reference to the name Temple Bar is on a 1673 map.
Fishamble Street in Temple Bar was the location of the first performance of Handel's Messiah on 13 April 1742. An annual performance of the Messiah is held on the same date at the same location. The republican revolutionary group, the Society of the United Irishmen, was formed at a meeting in a tavern in Eustace Street in 1791.
During the 19th century, the area slowly declined in popularity, and in the 20th century, it suffered from urban decay, with many derelict buildings. Its unfashionability probably saved it from Dublin's property developers, who destroyed much of the city's historic architecture during the 1960s.
In the 1980s, the state-owned transport company C\u00f3ras Iompair \u00c9ireann proposed to buy-up and demolish property in the area and build a bus terminus in its place. While this was in the planning stages, the purchased buildings were let out at low rents, which attracted small shops, artists and galleries to the area.
Protests by An Taisce, residents and traders led to the cancellation of the bus station project, and the Taoiseach Charles Haughey was responsible for securing funding, and, in 1991, the government set up a not-for-profit company called Temple Bar Properties to oversee the regeneration of the area as Dublin's cultural quarter.
In 1999, 'Stag Parties' and 'Hen Nights' were supposedly banned (or discouraged) from Temple Bar, mainly due to drunken loutish behaviour, although this seems to have lapsed. However, noise and anti-social behaviour usually fuelled. by excessive alcohol consumption remain a problem at night

August, always a mad busy crazy time in Edinburgh, during the festival and fringe, which seems to have grown even bigger than the tattoo and festival. There's no shortage of scaryness and satire here!.
Echo and Narcissus @ Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2012. From Rag and Bone Productions the Venue was theSpace on North Bridge. It was on until 18th August 2012 @ venue 36.
As the review says, 'Sometimes it is hard to tell image from reality until the illusion is shattered at the tap of a finger. Durham University\u2019s Rag &
Bone Productions use an exciting combination of physical theatre, drama and dance to bring you this dark and innovative take on a classic Greek myth. The tragic story of Echo and Narcissus follows the disastrous consequences of a man falling in love with his own reflection. Rag &
Bone successfully fuse visual spectacle with the best of storytelling to explore this tale of hurt, rejection, pride and vanity. Not to be missed!'
Narcissus, is a young man blessed with untold beauty, who spurns all amorous advances, be they from citizens, nymphs, or just about anyone who can appreciate the beauty of the perfect human form. Meanwhile, talkative forest nymph Echo is tasked by Zeus to distract his wife Hera with incredible stories while he has an affair. Hera finds out and curses Echo to be able to repeat only the ends of sentences spoken to her (hence her name, Echo).
She runs into Narcissus in a forest, he rejects her fumbled echoes and she wastes away until she is nothing but a voice. Narcissus rejects one final advance of an older man by the name of Ameinus and mocks him for his futile attempts, daring him to kill himself. Ameinus does so, but curses Narcissus beforehand, resulting in Artemis bewitching Narcissus to fall in love with the next person he sees.
As he is hunting in the woods, he stops to rest by a quiet pool in a grassy clearing and falls in love with his own reflection. At a loss, he plunges in to reach the young man but drowns. A small Narcissus flower is washed up on the shore afterwards, taking its name from him.
The Edinburgh Festival Fringe (The Fringe) is the world's largest arts festival, with the 2012 event spanning 25 days totalling over 2,695 shows from 47 countries in 279 venues. Established in 1947 as an alternative to the Edinburgh International Festival, it takes place annually in Scotland's capital, in the month of August. The Fringe is a showcase for the performing arts, particularly theatre and comedy (which has seen substantial growth in recent years), although dance and music are also represented. In 2012, 36% of shows were comedy and 28% theatrical productions. Theatrical productions range from the classics of ancient Greece to William Shakespeare, Samuel Beckett and contemporary works. In 2012, 1,418 shows were having their world premiere.
The Fringe is an unjuried festival \u2013 with no selection committee, and therefore any type of performance may participate. The Fringe has often showcased experimental works that might not be invited to a more conservative arts festival. In addition to ticketed, programmed events, the Festival has included a street fair, located primarily on the Royal Mile. The Festival is organized by the Festival Fringe Society, which publishes the programme, sells tickets, and offers advice to performers. Their offices are on the Royal Mile.

It is located on Museum Island in the Mitte borough. The current building was finished in 1905 and is a main work of Historicist architecture of the Kaiserzeit.
The Dom is the parish church of the congregation Gemeinde der Oberpfarr- und Domkirche zu Berlin, a member of the umbrella organisation Evangelical Church of Berlin-Brandenburg-Silesian Upper Lusatia. The Berlin Cathedral has never been a cathedral in the actual sense of that term since it has never been the seat of a bishop. The bishop of the Evangelical Church in Berlin-Brandenburg (under this name 19452003) is based at St. Mary's Church and Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church in Berlin. St. Hedwig's Cathedral serves as the seat of Berlin's Roman Catholic metropolitan bishop.

Sympathetically modified in the 1970's the bar hosts a plethora of original Victorian features. its a bit like going back in time, reminds me a little of Mulligans in Dublin.

A cracking track from 'The Thief and the Heartbreaker' album.
Alberta Cross is a New York-based band, formed by Petter Ericson Stakee (vocals, guitar) &
Terry Wolfers (bass). Despite their different upbringings - Stakee travelled from an early age between Sweden and England with his singer-songwriter father, whilst Wolfers was brought up in London's East End - they formed what would later become Alberta Cross. After relocating to Brooklyn, New York, Stakee and Wolfers solidified the line-up with the addition of Austin Beede, Alec Higgins and Sam Kearney.
The band's sound has been compared to The Band, Neil Young, The Raconteurs and other blues-influenced rock bands.
'Lucy Rider' is heard in the series premiere of the BBC One series Survivors, as well as episode 3 of Season 1 of Dirty Sexy Money. The album is well worth checking out.

What an interesting book this chap had as he left the library. His face could be that of modern Britain. Getting older, we expect to have more over 60's soon than ever before, we also probably will be expected to work longer for smaller pensions on the whole.
In Britain we should be the best europeans of all, we have had everyone through here, at some point or another. Romans, Vikings, Normans etc. This book is the story of who we are and where we are from - the history of Britain through war and conquest, migration and racial integration.
The Welcome Trust has given a GBP2million grant to Oxford geneticist Sir Walter Bodmer to take DNA samples from hundreds of volunteers throughout Britain and find tell-tale fragments of DNA that reveal the biological traces of successive waves of colonisers - Celts, Saxons, Vikings, etc. - in various parts of Britain. These traces in part determine our facial features. In effect, this project will produce a genetic map of our islands revealing where today's Cornish or East Anglians originally came from.
The project is unique in that it uses cutting edge technology to question our accepted notions of our history. Added to this, the series and the book will meld science, history and personal stories to investigate our linguistic history, our surnames and placenames and compare findings with the results of the Bodmer study.Face of Britain will be a launch pad to explore Britain's earliest history while investigating why we look the way we do.

INXS (pronounced 'in excess', In-X-S) are an Australian rock band, formed as The Farriss Brothers in 1977 in Sydney, New South Wales. Mainstays are Garry Gary Beers on bass guitar, Andrew Farriss on guitar/keyboards, Jon Farriss on drums, Tim Farriss on lead guitar and Kirk Pengilly on guitar/sax.
In the early 1980s, INXS first charted in their native Australia with their debut self-titled album, but later garnered moderate success elsewhere with Shabooh Shoobah and a single, 'The One Thing'. Though The Swing brought more success from around the world, its single 'Original Sin' was even greater commercially, becoming their first number-one single. They would later achieve international success with a series of hit recordings through later in the 1980s and the 1990s, including the albums Listen Like Thieves, Kick, and X
and the singles 'What You Need', 'Need You Tonight', 'Devil Inside', 'New Sensation', and 'Suicide Blonde'.
Hutchence's private life was often reported in the Australian and international press, with a string of love affairs with prominent actresses, models and singers. Hutchence's relationship with UK television presenter, Paula Yates, began while she was still married to music artist and Live Aid organiser, Saint Bob Geldof.
Hutchence and Yates had a daughter in 1996 just after she had divorced Geldof. Hutchence's death in 1997 was determined by the New South Wales Coroner to be the result of suicide \u2013 the finding was disputed by Yates, Hutchence's family and his fans. In 2000, Yates died of a heroin overdose and their daughter was placed in Geldof's custody with her half-sisters.

\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
Blondie is an American rock band, founded by singer Debbie Harry and guitarist Chris Stein. The band was a pioneer in the early American New Wave and punk scenes of the mid-1970s at CBGB's in New York.
Their first two albums contained strong elements of these genres, and although successful in the United Kingdom and Australia, Blondie was regarded as an underground band in the United States until the release of Parallel Lines in 1978. Over the next three years, the band achieved several hit singles and became noted for its eclectic mix of musical styles incorporating elements of disco, pop, rap, and reggae, while retaining a basic style as a New Wave band.
Blondie broke up after the release of their sixth studio album The Hunter in 1982. Debbie Harry continued to pursue a solo career with varied results after taking a few years off to care for partner Chris Stein, who was diagnosed with pemphigus, a rare autoimmune disease of the skin.
The band reformed in 1997, achieving renewed success and a number one single in the United Kingdom with 'Maria' in 1999. The group toured and performed throughout the world during the following years, and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2006. Blondie has sold 40 million records worldwide and is still active today, with a new album, Panic of Girls, released 30 May 2011 in the UK.
Prostitution itself is legal in the UK: a person can buy sexual services and working as a private prostitute or outcall escort is legal \u2013 but many related activities are not. This includes kerb crawling, pimping, keeping a brothel, advertising the services of call girls by placing cards (\u201ctart cards\u201d) in phone boxes, like these here and having sex in public. The laws apply to both male and female prostitutes and male and female clients.
Under the Street Offences Act 1959, it is illegal for a prostitute to wait for or solicit business in a street or public place, effectively making street prostitution illegal. Although assistance should be given to assist offenders in finding a route out of prostitution, prostitutes may be punished. Usually first or second time offenders will be cautioned, third and fourth time offenders are usually arrested and charged and on the fifth offence an anti-social behaviour order may be issued on conviction.

\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
Sonic Youth's history began when guitarist Thurston Moore moved to New York City in early 1976. Interested in punk, Moore joined the Coachmen, a guitar-based quartet, after arriving in the city. Lee Ranaldo, an art student at Binghamton University, became a fan of the Coachmen, and he and Moore were soon friends.
Ranaldo was a member of Glenn Branca's electric guitar ensemble, touring throughout the US and Europe. After the breakup of the Coachmen, Moore began jamming with Stanton Miranda, whose band, CKM, featured local artist Kim Gordon.
The name Sonic Youth came from combining the nickname of MC5's Fred 'Sonic' Smith with the trend of reggae artists, such as Big Youth.
Sonic Youth signed as the first act on Neutral Records. In December 1981 the group recorded five songs in a studio in New York's Radio City Music Hall. The material was released as the Sonic Youth mini-LP that, while largely ignored, was sent to a few key members of the US press that gave it favorable reviews.
During the 1984 tour of Europe, Sonic Youth's disastrous London debut (where the band's equipment malfunctioned and Moore consequently destroyed the equipment onstage in frustration) actually resulted in rave reviews in Sounds and the NME. That was probably I came across them.
In 1986 they moonlighted as Ciccone Youth. Track down the three track 12' - 'Into the Groove(y)' (a cover of Madonna's hit 'Into the Groove', incorporating snippets of her recording) and the short 'Tuff Titty Rap' on the A side (both performed by the Sonic Youth members), and 'Burnin' Up' on the B side.
This track is from the 1994 Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star album.

The Prodigy are an English electronic dance music group formed by Liam Howlett in 1990 in Braintree, Essex. Along with Fatboy Slim and The Chemical Brothers, as well as other acts, members of The Prodigy have been credited as pioneers of the big beat genre which achieved mainstream popularity in the 1990s and 2000s. They have sold over 25 million records worldwide.
The group's brand of big beat music makes use of various styles ranging from rave, hardcore techno, industrial and breakbeat in the early 1990s to electronic rock with punk vocal elements in later times. The current members include Liam Howlett (composer/keyboards), Keith Flint (dancer/vocalist) and Maxim (MC/vocalist). Leeroy Thornhill (dancer/very occasional live keyboards) was a member of the band from 1990 to 2000, as was a female dancer/vocalist called Sharky who left the group during their early period. The Prodigy first emerged on the underground rave scene in the early 1990s, and have since then achieved immense popularity and worldwide renown.
Some of their most popular songs include 'Fire', 'Charly', 'Out of Space', 'No Good (Start the Dance)', 'Voodoo People', 'Poison', 'Firestarter', 'Breathe', 'Smack My Bitch Up', 'Omen', 'Spitfire', 'Invaders Must Die' and 'Warrior's Dance'.

\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
'Mittageisen' is a single by the English band Siouxsie and the Banshees. Originally appearing on the band's 1978 debut album The Scream (an album I played to death when it first came out) as 'Metal Postcard (Mittageisen)', the track was re-recorded in 1979 with this time the lyrics sung in German.
The title 'Mittageisen' is a word play based on the German words 'Mittagessen' (literally: 'noon meal', i.e. Lunch) and Eisen ('iron'). The title was inspired by John Heartfield's photocollage Hurrah, die Butter ist Alle! ('Hurray, the Butter is Finished!'), that was also used as front cover art.
John Heartfield's photocollage was initially used on the frontpage of the 'Arbeiter-Illustrierte-Zeitung / Workers Illustrated Journal', published on 19 December 1935. Heartfield (1891\u20131968) was an early member of the Club Dada, which started 1916 as Cabaret Voltaire in Z\u00fcrich. The picture with the title 'Hurrah, die Butter ist Alle! / Hurray, the butter is finished!' shows a family who eats various pieces of metal. The trigger for it was the following quote from Hermann G\u00f6ring: 'Iron made a nation always strong, butter and lard made only the people fat.'
'Mittageisen' was composed by Banshees members Siouxsie Sioux, John McKay, Kenny Morris and Steven Severin, the lyrics were translated by Dave Woods.

With the demise of the CAB (Citizens Advice Bureau), the local library can be the place people turn for advice. This can be for legal matters, health issues or finance.
A well stocked library can help everyone access the information they need. Books may not do the job for you, thats down to the borrower of course.
It would be interesting to see if the person this lady was taking these books out for, benifitted from them 3 weeks later when they were returned/renewed.

The biggest, longest, greatest, scary-ist and most bizarre. Kids love this stuff. Thankfully our central library does have this stuff in spades. Stuffed with facts these feed the young mind.
Many of these books are not the type of thing you might buy, but are good to borrow for a few weeks, then move on to the next lot.
This is where my 6 year old lad learn't the difference between a Trent and a Mersey lifeboat &

Your local library is a great place to check out a better way of doing your pastimes or learning a new skill.
Learning techniques to paint, draw, photograph or film help you with some inspiration. I would have loved to see some of this ladies watercolours, or see how they have improved after getting a helping hand at the local library.
Some artists are using their skills, maybe learnt in libraries to help in the fightback over cuts. Below is the start of a compelling account from 'Artists of the Resistance', a bunch of folks who clearly think libraries are worth fighting for:
Unison, a local campaign for library and public services, concerned locals, political activists from a couple of different parties and library users previously unaware and needing no encouragement to join in.
Stalls were out, petitions offered, placards home made and more familiar were all present, children and their parents were chalking a giant \u2018Save Our Libraries\u2019 on the square floor, balloons in the air, a local author, local press, students, young, pensioners, activists, library staff, union members, authors, all ages, all backgrounds assembled and we knew we had alot of work to cover faithfully the atmosphere and the passion of this event.
More here.

The local library is a place to learn more about where you live. I was not born here, ended up here more by practicality than choice.
Usually libraries have microfiche of newspapers going back many decades and can serve as archives of local history.
For a small town, commuter dormatory for Liverpool and Manchester, Warrington has its place in history. Two IRA bombs, the second claiming two childs lives left a dark shadow over the town.
The troubles in Warrington started on Thursday 25 February 1993. Three IRA terrorists broke into a Warrington gas storage depot. After planting Semtex bombs, the trio tried to escape and shot a patrolling police officer.
Most of their bombs failed to detonate, but one did blow up. Thankfully, nobody was injured. The three IRA men were arrested and Warrington believed its brush with terrorism had passed. They were wrong.
On Saturday 20 March 1993 another IRA unit took revenge on Warrington for the arrests three weeks earlier. It was the day before Mothering Sunday and stores in Bridge Street were bustling with shoppers. Two bombs, planted in waste bins, exploded within a minute of each other.
I was in Warrington that day. Luckily in Sainsburys when the bombs exploded. I visit Belfast a lot and I am pleased that the two communities can manage to agree to disagree in peace now. I regret the loss of the innocent lives of three year old Jonathan Ball and 12 year old Tim Parry, who only lived streets away from me.
I hope libraries stay open to spread the experience of this, as well as the victorian explorers who brought Egyptian mummies to the museum and the 1651 scene of the last Royalist victory of the Civil War. Our lives would be poorer for not knowing the history of the soil we tread on every day.

A cracking place for kids books and also those books of trains, ships and machines young lads always love. In my experience too, we ended up going home with the full quota of 8 books.
Books develop a childs imagination. I am convinced reading and writing is aided by having books around and having a diverse library of them on your doorstep. If you are lucky you might get a corner with Lego to fiddle with too.
Dora the Explorer is an American animated television series created by Chris Gifford, Valerie Walsh, and Eric Weiner. Dora the Explorer became a regular series in 2000. The show can be found on the Nickelodeon cable television network.
Dora, the main character, is a young 7-year-old latin american girl who embarks on a trip in every episode in order to find something or help somebody. She asks the viewers at home to help her find new ways to reach places with the help of Map. She also teaches viewers Spanish, introducing them to short words and phrases.
Dora is available in many languages as TV series and books. In each country she pairs the native language with English. For example in Russia, the bilingualism is Russian-English. The series is called Dasha-sledopyt ('Dasha the Pathfinder'). Dasha is the children's name of Daria (Darya).

I had a long chat with this chap. His father had played football with the opposition during the war and that is why he selected this book ( Soccer at War: The Complete Record of British Football and Footballers During the Second World War) on this day.
'Soccer at War' is the compelling account of the national game during this defining moment in history. Rollin reveals how it was that football not only continued to be played and watched, but also grew in popularity and stature. He explains how, while the country fought for freedom, the sport offered morale-boosting appeal to war workers, servicemen, and civilians alike.
It tells of the hundreds of professional footballers who joined up, those who became heroes, and those who did not come back, the enthusiasts who administered the game in their spare time, and the players who turned out for thirty bob a week. The servicemen who went AWOL to play and others who hitch-hiked just to get to a game also find their place in the story, along with the record-breaking goalscoring achievements. Looking further afield to occupied Europe, 'Soccer at War' also exposes the role of football in Hitler's regime.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 5695317409 - 'One of Northern Ireland's best-known pubs, it is a rare and classic example of a Victorian gin palace. Its one of my favourites, similar to the Phil' in Liverpool and one more reason to consider staying at the famous Europa hotel over the road.
It was opened as The Railway Tavern, as the Great Victoria St train station is just opposite. The pub was then bought by Michael Flanagan. His son Patrick renamed and renovated the pub in 1885.
The Crown owes its elaborate tiling, stained glass and woodwork to the Italian craftsmen whom Flanagan persuaded to work on the pub after hours. These craftsmen were brought to Ireland to work on the many new churches being built in Belfast at the time. It was this high standard of work that gave the Crown the reputation of being one of the finest Victorian Gin Palaces of its time.
In 1978 the National Trust, following persuasion by people including Sir John Betjeman, purchased the property and three years later completed a \u00a3400,000 renovation to restore the bar to its original Victorian state. Further restoration by the National Trust was done in 2007 at a cost of \u00a3500,000. As a NT member myself it would be nice to get a free pint on production of my NT membership card. I might take that up with them.
The pub was used as a location in David Caffrey's Divorcing Jack (1998), a film following Colin Bateman's character Dan Starkey through a web of political intrigue and Irish sectarian violence. I would fully recommend the book and many more of his books in the same style.
The exterior is decorated in polychromatic tiles. This includes a mosaic of a Crown on the floor of the entrance. The interior is also decorated with complex mosaics of tiles. The red granite topped bar is of an altar style, with a heated footrest underneath and is lit by gas lamps on the highly decorative carved ceilings.
The Crown has ten booths, or snugs. Built to accommodate the pub's more reserved customers during the austere Victorian period, the snugs feature the original gun metal plates for striking matches and an antique bell system for alerting staff. Extra privacy was then afforded by the pub's etched and stained glass windows which feature painted shells, fairies, pineapples, fleurs-de-lis and clowns.
This has been formed from 29 images and the original size is 17000x7000 pixels.

Chester Cathedral is the mother church of the Church of England Diocese of Chester, and is located in the city of Chester, Cheshire, England. The cathedral, formerly St Werburgh's abbey church of a Benedictine monastery, is dedicated to Christ and the Blessed Virgin Mary. Since 1541 it has been the centre of worship, administration, ceremony and music for the city and diocese.
The cathedral is a Grade I listed building, and the heritage site, including the former monastic buildings, lying to the north of the cathedral is also listed Grade I. The cathedral, typical of English cathedrals in having been modified many times, dates from between 1093 and the early 16th century, although the site itself may have been used for Christian worship since Roman times. All the major styles of English medieval architecture, from Norman to Perpendicular are represented in the present building.
There are expansive gardens at the rear. These are locked at night, but its an easy matter to sneak in, at a number of points around it.

Jodrell Bank is a world leader in radio astronomy-related research and technology development but also carries out research across the electromagnetic spectrum and in theoretical topics. It was first in the west to track the Russian USSR Luna 1 probe.
While the early warning radars at Fylingdales Moor were being constructed Jodrell Bank was held in a sort of readiness to track Soviet ICBM:s by using the big antenna as a radar. The radar tracking of the Sputnik rocket bodies (and later Sputnik 3 itself) demonstrated that the telescope had the capability to detect missiles at great range and the telescope was given an interim ballistic missile early warning role. Presumably also this effort provided some much needed funding for the telescope.
The Centre occupies three main locations: the world-famous Jodrell Bank Observatory in Cheshire (shown here in panorama form, original dimensions 7332x3666pixels), and the Alan Turing and Sackville St Buildings in central Manchester.
The Lovell Telescope has stood proudly over the Cheshire Plain since its completion in 1957 and is the flagship of the Jodrell Bank Observatory. The observatory is a place of learning, teaching and research for the many engineers, astronomers and students who develop and use the radio telescopes here.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 5894106036 - 'Completed by architect Alfred Waterhouse in 1877, the building features imposing murals by the artist Ford Madox Brown depicting important events in the history of the city. The Town Hall was rated by English Heritage as a Grade I listed building in 1952 and the Town Hall Extension, completed in 1938, was Grade II* listed in 1974. Attop the clocktower is a golden cottonseed. A testament to the original source of the city's rapid growth and wealth.
The planning for a new Town Hall began in 1863. After an investigation of suitable sites, including Piccadilly, the site chosen for the new town hall was an oddly shaped triangle facing onto Albert Square. The choice of location was influenced by a desire to provide a central, accessible, but relatively quiet site in a respectable district, close to Manchester's banks and municipal offices, next to a large open area, suitable for the display of a fine building.
A competition was held to design the Town Hall. Of the 137 entries in open competition for the design, Waterhouse's design was chosen, mainly for his ingenious planning, and he was appointed as architect on 1 April 1868.
The foundation stone of the new Town Hall was laid on 26 October 1868 by the Lord Mayor of Manchester, Robert Neill. Construction took nine years, used fourteen million bricks,[6] and cost \u00a3775,000 (\u00a353.5 million as of 2011). The Town Hall was opened by Lord Mayor Abel Heywood, who had championed the project, on 13 September 1877, after Queen Victoria's refusal to attend the opening.
The building exemplifies the Victorian Gothic revival style of architecture, using themes and elements from 13th-century Early English Gothic architecture. The choice was influenced by the wish for a spiritual acknowledgement of Manchester's late medieval heritage in the textile trade of the Hanseatic league and also an affirmation of modernity, the fashionable neo-Gothic style being preferred over the Neoclassical architecture favoured in neighbouring Liverpool. The exterior, faced with hard sandstone quarried near Bradford, Yorkshire, known as 'Spinkwell stone',[9] is decorated with sculptures of important figures in Manchester's history. The interior is faced with multi-coloured Architectural terracotta by Gibbs and Canning Limited. The painted ceilings were provided by Best &
Lea of Manchester, who had also provided the ceilings in the Natural History Museum, London, also designed by Alfred Waterhouse.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 5643718247 - 'Calton Hill is a hill in central Edinburgh, Scotland, just to the east of the New Town. Views of, and from, the hill are often used in photographs and paintings of the city.
Calton Hill is the headquarters of the Scottish Government, which is based at St Andrew's House, on the steep southern slope of the hill
with the Scottish Parliament Building, and other key buildings, for example Holyrood Palace, lying near the foot of the hill. The hill also includes several iconic monuments and buildings: the National Monument, Nelson's Monument, the Dugald Stewart Monument, the New Parliament House (the Royal High School), the Robert Burns Monument, the Political Martyrs' Monument and the City Observatory
The hill was used from ancient times as a place of execution. Most famously Major Weir the self-confessed Edinburgh warlock, was executed here. The hill was originally part of the Barony of Calton which was abolished in 1856. King James II of Scotland allowed the residents of Edinburgh to use the North West slope of the hill for 'tilts and tournaments'in 1456. This natural amphitheatre was also used for open-air theatre and saw the first performance of the early Scots play 'The Three Estaites'. The Carmelite friars (based locally at South Queensferry) built a monastery on the western side of the hill in 1518
The lands passed from the church to Lord Balmerino after the Scottish Reformation in 1560. Later in the 16th century, a leper hospital was built. In 1631 Lord Balmerino granted rights to the Trades of Calton (largely a group of shoemakers) to settle on the land and a small village was created centred on a square of open space. This square was walled off in 1718 and became officially a burial ground, evolving into what is now known as Old Calton Cemetery.
In 1669 the area was given burgh status. The royal burgh of Edinburgh bought the hill from Lord Balmerino in 1724. The area was elevated to the status of royal burgh in its own right immediately thereafter (1725). It did not officially become amalgamated with the city of Edinburgh until 1859.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 5666139680 - 'The Playfair steps pay homage to architect William Henry Playfair FRSE (15 July 1790 \u2013 19 March 1857). Leading from the top of Market Street down to the square at the Mound, The Art Galleries, Princes Street and Princes Street Gardens.
Although they are as old as Auld Reekie herself, the current name dates from only just over 30 years ago.
They were renamed Playfair Steps by then Rt Hon Lord Provest, Kenneth W Borthwick on 21st April 1978. He held that post from 1977.
They were originally, The Mound Steps 1853/1972, then John Knox Way 1972/78 before Playfair steps 78 onwards. Thanks to Nicola for helping me with the history.
He was undoubtedly one of the greatest Scottish architects of the 19th century, designer of many of Edinburgh's neo-classical landmarks in the New Town.
Two of his finest works are the neo-classical buildings of the National Gallery of Scotland and the Royal Scottish Academy which are situated in the centre of Edinburgh, to the left of these steps. The Playfair Project completed in 2004 joined the two historic buildings with an underground link.
He was greatly inspired by a trip to Athens.
Playfair died in Edinburgh on 19 March 1857, and is buried in Edinburgh's Dean Cemetery, where he designed a number of monuments for others, including Lord Jeffrey.
This is an infrared shot taken with a 720nm adapted SLR. It is more convenient to use than using a Hoya R72 for IR. This spring day was heavy in infrared.
Hopefully this will be a distraction for everyone hooked today on the Kate (Catherine) Middleton and Prince William royal wedding at Westminster Abbey. In different times it might have taken place in Edinburgh and there may have been several monarchs, kings &
queens in what is now the UK. Just some food for thought. Enjoy your day if you are watching it on TV or just spending the morning buying some 3x2 at Homebase.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 5653993839 - 'The name Lymm, is of Celtic origins, means a 'place of running water' and is likely derived from an ancient stream that ran through the village centre. The Bridgewater canal (a rare one with no locks), runs through the village diagonally to the original stream.
Lymm village centre is a designated conservation area, notable for its historic buildings, both listed and unlisted. These include the French-style terracotta former Lymm Town Hall (currently unlisted)
Oughtrington Hall &
Lodge, formerly owned by a cadet branch of the Leigh family and now Lymm High School
Lymm Hall, a former Domville family residence
Foxley Hall, home to a cadet branch of the ancient Booth family, before ownership passed to the Carlisle family is no longer standing, but fustian cutting cottages on Booth's Hill Road and Arley Grove do survive. The parish church of St Peter's Church, Oughtrington is an example of Gothic Revival architecture.
St Mary's Church, Lymm is next to Lymm Dam. By 1850 an earlier 14th century building was in disrepair, and the Newcastle architect John Dobson was commissioned to rebuild it. The 1521 tower was retained and raised, but the additional stonework meant that the tower had to be rebuilt in 1887.
Lymm's village cross, known simply as 'The Cross', is a Grade I listed structure.

This is a track from 'No more heroes' the second Stranglers album. It was produced by Martin Rushent, and released in 1977. The classic cover featured a photo of a wreath placed on a coffin with the tails of several rats (the Stranglers' 'trademark'). It was one of the first albums I bought, after many plugs on the John Peel show.
They are said to be the longest-surviving and most 'continuously successful' band to have originated in the UK punk scene of the mid to late 1970s. Beginning life as the Guildford Stranglers on the 11th September 1974 with pub rock origins.
The Stranglers' early sound was driven by Jean-Jacques Burnel's melodic bass, but also gave prominence to Dave Greenfield's keyboards at a time when the instrument was seen as unfashionable. Their early music was also characterised by the growling vocals and sometimes misanthropic lyrics of both Jean-Jacques Burnel and Hugh Cornwell.
To hear more (for my money), checkout any or all of the first 3 albums: Rattus Norvegicus (1977), No More Heroes (1977) &

Trinity College, Dublin (TCD
Irish: Col\u00e1iste na Tr\u00edon\u00f3ide, Baile \u00c1tha Cliath), formally known as the College of the Holy and Undivided Trinity of Queen Elizabeth near Dublin, was founded in 1592 by letters patent from Queen Elizabeth I as the 'mother of a university', and is the only constituent college of the University of Dublin. Located in Dublin, Ireland, it is Ireland's oldest university.
Trinity was set up in part to consolidate the rule of the Tudor monarchy in Ireland, and it was seen as the university of the Protestant Ascendancy for much of its history
although Roman Catholics and Dissenters had been permitted to enter as early as 1793, certain restrictions on their membership of the college remained until 1873 (professorships, fellowships and scholarships were reserved for Protestants) , and the Catholic Church in Ireland forbade its adherents, without permission from their bishop, from attending until 1970. Women were first admitted to the college as full members in 1904.
Its a cool place, make time in your busy life to spend an afternoon there.
This is the place to see the Book Of Kells or just to enjoy the green on a sunny afternoon. My thanks to MOB (you know who you are) for the suggested Dublin tour. I met some old friends and old ghosts during my afternoon.

It is the seventh highest in the country, the fifth highest parish church in the UK, after the St. Walburge's Church, Preston, St. James Church, Louth, St Mary Redcliffe, and St. Wulfram's Church, Grantham.
Within the church, St Ann's Chapel was founded by Thomas Massey, rector of Warrington from 1448 to 1464. It continued to belong to the Massey family until they died out in 1748. The chapel was then acquired by the Patten family who built a vault to bury members of the family, the last being Lord Winmarleigh in 1892. The Lady Chapel was founded and endowed by Sir John Boteler in 1290. He and other family members were buried in the chapel. In 1943 it became the chapel of the South Lancashire Regiment and in 1976 the chapel of The Queen's Lancashire Regiment.
The gateway to the church dates from the 18th century. It consists of two stone rusticated gate piers surmounted by a cornice and urns. Between these are two iron gates over which is a curved iron arch. To the sides are low stone side walls and small iron side gates for pedestrians. The gateway is listed Grade II. Also listed Grade II are the cobbles and the pavement leading to the gateway.

Porcupine Tree are a prog (progressive) rock band formed by Steven Wilson in 1987 in Hemel Hempstead, UK. A big fan of Tangerine Dream, Neu! and Can, Steven's style has moved more in recent years to heavy metal. From the 'In Absentia' album, when the band started to work with Danish photographer and filmmaker Lasse Hoile. This involvement created a distinctive image for the band and is part of the Tree's live experience.
In 2007 the band was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Surround Sound Album with their album 'Fear of a Blank Planet' and then again in 2010 with 'The Incident'. Steven Wilson has also been involved with No-Man and Blackfield. Both of whuch are worth checking out too.

Hornby Railways is the leading brand of model railway in the United Kingdom. Its roots date back to 1901, when founder Frank Hornby received a patent for his Meccano construction toy. The first clockwork train was produced in 1920. In 1938, Hornby launched its first 00 gauge train. In 1964, Hornby and Meccano were bought by their competitor Tri-Ang, and sold on when Tri-ang went into receivership. In the 1980s Hornby Railways became independent.
Like most kids I had one when I was young.
Hornby was at first a tradename for the railway productions of Meccano Ltd and based in Liverpool, which released its first train, a clockwork 0 gauge (1:48) model, in 1920. An electric train soon followed but was under-designed and the few that were made were sold out in France. In 1925, a much more successful electric model was introduced , operating on high voltage (220-240V ouch!) AC power. Safety concerns saw low voltage 4V and then 6V motors introduced, followed by a reliable 20V AC system, which was developed in the early 1930s. However, clockwork remained the mainstay of the Hornby 0 gauge trains until 1937 and became the only power available in Liverpool-made 0 gauge trains from 1949.
All Hornby train sets come with a TrakMat - a scenic underlay sheet which you can use as a base for your layout at any stage in its development. A TrakMat also tells you where to put the track, buildings and other accessories to complete the full TrakMat layout. So its still childs play. Grass, hedges, vegetation and gravel is easily added as is lighting for homes, shops, stations and pub models. Dont forget a railway cottage and trackside fencing to finish off!

\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
Ace of Spades' is perhaps the best known song by the English band Mot\u00f6rhead. The 7' vinyl single was released in October 1980 as a preview to the album Ace of Spades and autumn tour. Bronze Records also released a 12' vinyl pressing in special Christmas picture sleeves, limited to 50,000 copies. The picture of the band in Santa outfits used on the cover was taken at the Aylesbury Fair, while the band were on tour.
Its a staple of their live shows and I have probably seen it played as encore three or four times. For the lyrics, Lemmy said he 'used gambling metaphors, mostly cards and dice - when it comes to that sort of thing, I'm more into the one-arm bandits actually, but you can't really sing about spinning fruit, and the wheels coming down'
In March 2005, Q magazine placed it at no 27 in its list of the 100 Greatest Guitar Tracks, stating 'This song has an intro which wouldn't be out of place ushering in the end of the world'. In 2009 it was named both the 10th greatest hard rock and metal song of all time by VH1.
Up to this point the band consisted of the original trio of Lemmy on bass &
lead vocals, 'Fast' Eddie Clarke on lead guitar and Phil 'Philthy Animal' Taylor on drums.

In April 2003, Saddam's whereabouts remained in question during the weeks following the fall of Baghdad and the conclusion of the major fighting of the 2003 Iraq war. Various sightings of Saddam were reported in the weeks following the war but none was authenticated. At various times Saddam released audio tapes promoting popular resistance to the U.S.-led occupation.
Saddam was placed at the top of the U.S. list of 'most-wanted Iraqis'. By July 2003, his sons Uday and Qusay and 14-year-old grandson Mustapha were killed in a three-hour gunfight with U.S. forces.
On the 14th December 2003, U.S. administrator in Iraq L. Paul Bremer announced that Saddam Hussein had been captured at a farmhouse in ad-Dawr near Tikrit. Bremer presented video footage of Saddam in custody. The enduring image of the capture however, was a tabloid photo of the ex-leader in his underpants. The release of the pictures is certainly a violation of the Geneva Convention.
'Pants' is a suitable metaphor for the shaky evidence that originally was used to justify the conflict, which has had devastating effects on the Iraqi people, hundreds of servicemans families and handed Al-Qaeda the perfect environment to recruit for more global jihad. Well done politicians.

A great summer track for a Saturday with the sun flooding through my front window.
This is the eleventh track on the compilation 'Melting Pot'. I pass the cafe on the cover of this album most lunchtimes when I go into Northwich. It looks slightly different now after a recent paint &
decoration job. A few years ago I had the pleasure of having some of my framed live shots on the walls there.
The band consists of Northwich lad Tim Burgess (vox), Mark Collins (guitar), Martin Blunt (bass), Tony Rogers (keyboards) and Jon Brookes (drums and percussion). Northwich is the home of the band's own original 'Dead Dead Good Records' label and have inspired many local musicians.
the Charlatans are back in the studio to work on their eleventh album planned for release in August 2010. This also coincides with twentieth anniversary of the band's debut album, Some Friendly. The album is due for re-issue with bonus material, and an extensive UK tour for both the re-issue and new album launch is due to take place to support these releases.
If you have not heard them before, checkout 'Melting Pot' to be rewarded :-)

Photobooth was the first EP from St Albans dance punk lads Friendly Fires in mid 2006. It more or less slipped under the radar until the bands full first album came out. The name Friendly Fires originates from the opening track of the Manchester Factory label 'Section 25' LP 'Always Now'. (Maybe a track from them later in this series).
The first self titled album was certified double gold in the UK. The band was nominated for a Best Breakthrough Award at The South Bank Show Awards and for \u2018Best Dancefloor Filler\u2019 at the NME Awards. They were also second on the bill on the NME Awards Tour 2009.
On 21 July 2009, the band was nominated for the Mercury Music Prize. On 19 January 2010, the band was nominated for two Brit Awards
Best British Group and British Breakthrough Act.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4778116608 - 'Simon Jenkins in his book 'England''s Thousand Best Churches' awards St Wulframs church in Grantham a five star rating, in part for the tower and spire. 'Here is the finest steeple in England', he writes. Constructed in the early 1300s, at 282 ft. the spire is one of the highest in the country on a parish church, dominating the views of the town. The church is built of Lincolnshire limestone, probably from around the Ancaster area.
It has to be said that Grantham is a place with a single real claim to fame. Much like Liverpool was the birthplace of the 1960's icons 'The fab Four', Grantham was birthplace of the scurge of the 1980's 'The Iron Lady'. Heady times. In the UK one of 3 million unemployed, Militant Tendancy (I often drank in the same Liverpool pub as Derek Hatton), pit towns desimated and Arthur Scargil. When he said that over 20,000 mining jobs would go they called him mad. He wasn't mad enough, the final figure was over twice that. However, dont get me on that subject....
But if you pass through this way, this church should be worth a visit. Check out its stunning spire and try to find its hippopotamus head. The church is dedicated to St Wulfram, a 7th century missionary born in about 650 AD near Fontainebleau, south of Paris. A quite popular saint of the time.
He was the son of a Frankish soldier but instead of following in his father''s footsteps, he took Holy Orders. He was Archbishop of Sens in 693. In 700 he became a missionary to the pagan Frisians in what is now northern Germany. He died in 720 and was canonised after numerous miracles had been attributed to him. There is a large collegiate church dedicated to him at Abbeville in northern France .
In pre-Reformation times this church contained a shrine of St. Wulfram. The reliquary was probably housed in the Crypt and at times in the upper chamber of the North Porch. The medieval font c1496 is surmounted by a tall and elaborate fixed cover of 1899 designed by Sir Walter Tapper. Inside the cover are three carved figures depicting Edward the Confessor, St Hugh of Lincoln and St Wulfram.
The Francis Trigge Chained Library is a great treasure of the church, established in 1598 when Reverend Francis Trigge, Rector of Welbourn, gave \u00a3100 for the purchase of books to set up the library. There are 356 separate items including a book printed in Venice in 1472, that is four years before Caxton introduced printing into England. Over 80 volumes are still attached by chain to the shelves, preventing their loan or theft. Unfortunately I missed this on my visit.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4760947103 - 'The Sleeping Beauty Novels by Anne Rice (writing as A. N. Roquelaure). Best known for her gothic vampire stories and later religious-themed works, Rice is also the creator of a trilogy centered on Sleeping Beauty -- The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty
Beauty's Punishment
and, Beauty's Release.
Rice puts a strong emphasis on human desire and Beauty\u2019s sexual awakening with these erotic, sometimes sadomasochistic, stories.
The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty (1983), Beauty's Punishment (1984), and Beauty's Release (1985) are erotic novels by Anne Rice writing under the pseudonym of A. N. Roquelaure. The trilogy was a bestseller, outearning Interview with the Vampire.
They are lengthy BDSM novels, reminiscent of Story of O, set in a medieval fantasy world based very loosely on the legend of Sleeping Beauty. The novels contain both maledom and femdom scenarios, as well as vivid imageries of bisexuality, ephebophilia and bestiality.
In this alternative racy adult orientated tale, Beauty is awakened from her hundred-year sleep by the Prince, not with a simple kiss, but with a deflowering, initiating her into a Satyricon-like world of sexual adventures. After stripping her naked he takes her to his kingdom, ruled by his mother, the Queen.
There Beauty is trained as a slave and a plaything. The rest of the naked slaves, dozens of them, in the Queen's palace are princes and princesses sent by their royal parents from the surrounding kingdoms as tributes. In this palace they spend several years learning to become obedient and submissive sexual property, accepting being spanked, being publicly displayed, crawling around on their hands and knees, servicing their masters and mistresses, until they return to their own lands 'being enhanced in wisdom'.
In the palace Beauty meets another slave, Prince Alexi, with whom she copulates passionately. After that he tells her the long adventurous journey he had in the palace. Alexi previously had been a stubborn prince who fought back all the attempts to break him, until the Queen sent him to the kitchen to get him tortured by crude kitchen servants.
The punishment Alexi received there was so savage and merciless he began to lose his senses and, after some particularly humiliating training at the hands of a strong stable boy, Alexi became a totally surrendered slave, playing various sexual games at the Queen's commands.
The moral of Alexi's story notwithstanding, Beauty fails to become an obedient plaything, and the book closes with her being sentenced to brutal slavery in the neighboring village along with other failed slaves.
So the moral of all this: 'Dont waste your life waiting for your prince to come'.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4752350001 - 'This couplet is one of Dorothy Parker's most famous poems, and is an excellent example of the succinct force of her wit. The poem in its entirety reads:
News Item
Men seldom make passes
At girls who wear glasses.
Dorothy Parker might be glad to know that in modern times, men frequently make passes at girls (and women) who wear glasses. I have certainly been there myself! In at least American culture, glasses tend to connote intelligence and often a certain degree of nerdiness to the unwary observer, and fortunately nowadays intelligence is more accepted, even valued, in women. So to some extent, the scales have tipped the other way such that to a fair degree the air-headed women on television and in movies are more often portrayed as the undesirable ones.
On the other hand, there is still a broad vein of anti-glasses sentiment in American culture. Consistently, in movies, talk shows, sitcoms, and ad campaigns that rely on someone going 'from geek to goddess,' women (and men) are put through a makeover process where the glasses are the first to go. For example, in the Disneyfication of The Princess Diaries, the commercials for the movie showed the main character losing her glasses to become a pretty pretty princess. (They also straightened her hair, which really requires its own acerbic couplet - or perhaps a seven-chapter epic poem.).
For many of course there are contact lenses, vision without the frames. The only problem I have witnessed is the spectacle of a woman removing one after a few too many drinks, then forgetting which eye has already had it removed. Tragic, yet funny at the same time - it made me smile anyway!

Bentley Motors Limited is a British manufacturer of automobiles founded on my birthday, 18th January 1919 by Walter Owen Bentley (known as W.O. Bentley or just 'W.O.').
Bentley had been previously known for his range of rotary aero-engines in World War I, the most famous being the Bentley BR1 as used in later versions of the Sopwith Camel. Since 1998, the company has been owned by the Volkswagen Group of Germany and is located in Crewe, south Cheshire.
Before World War I, W.O. Bentley had been in partnership with his brother H.M. Bentley selling French DFP cars, but he had always wanted to design and build his own range of cars bearing his name. In August 1919, Bentley Motors Ltd. was registered, and a chassis with dummy engine was exhibited at the London Motor Show in October of that year.
It was on a visit to the DFP factory in 1913 that W.O. noticed an aluminium paperweight, and had the inspired idea of using the lightweight metal instead of cast iron to make engine pistons. The first Bentley aluminium pistons went into service in aero engines for the Sopwith Camel during the Great War.
A group of wealthy British motorists known as the 'Bentley Boys' (Woolf Barnato, Sir Henry Birkin, steeplechaser George Duller, aviator Glen Kidston, automotive journalist S.C.H. 'Sammy' Davis, and Dr. Dudley Benjafield among them) kept the marque's reputation for high performance alive. Thanks to the dedication to serious racing of this group, the company, located at Cricklewood, north London, was noted for its four consecutive victories at the 24 hours of Le Mans from 1927 to 1930. Their greatest competitor at the time, Bugatti\u2014whose lightweight, elegant, but fragile creations contrasted with the Bentley's rugged reliability and durability\u2014referred to them as 'the world's fastest lorries'.
The one pictured here looks like a 1929 model, possibly 3-6 litre engine.

Now, Windows mobile 7 is planned to cover the sames bases with the addition of a 'Bing' button (WTF?), but two years too late. While Apple look like your creative younger art school sister, Microsoft might be your older richer fuddy duddy sibling, set in his old ways.
The iPhone was originally released in 2007. An iPhone functions as a rather useful camera phone with the usual texting etc. It has its own portable media player, Safari a great pinch and stretch browser with Wi-Fi connectivity etc.
There are well over 200,000 apps each of which must approved by Apple. Presumably Apple take a few pennies from all those downloads. They tend to be the funky consumer apps, not really ones for business however. I am still looking for one that will allow me to find where there is not a Tesco store.
Some of the apps I have been playing with on mine include Lomo (a toy camera app), Autostitch (panorama software), Shazam (for identifying that obscure music track) and Met Office (to see when the rain will be arriving).

It was the fourth university to be established in Scotland, making it one of the ancient universities of the United Kingdom...
The university is consistently placed amongst the best in the world, ranking 20th in the 2009 THES - QS World University Rankings, as well as 17th in the current Global University Ranking. THES - QS World University Rankings has consistently ranked University of Edinburgh as the best university in Scotland, and one of the five best universities in UK.
The university played an important role leading the city of Edinburgh to its reputation as a chief intellectual centre during the Age of Enlightenment, and helped give the city the nickname of the Athens of the north.
Alumni of the university include some of the major figures of modern history. The founding of the University is attributed to Bishop Robert Reid of St Magnus Cathedral, Kirkwall, Orkney, who left the funds on his death in 1558 that ultimately provided the University's endowment. The University was established by a Royal Charter granted by James VI in 1582, becoming the fourth Scottish university at a time when the neighbour neighbour to the south, England, had only two..
The Guardian University Guide 2008 ranked the University of Edinburgh as follows:..7th in the UK overall.1st in the UK for computer science.1st in the UK for physics.1st in the UK for Nursing.2nd in the UK for medicine..A very outstanding achievment and the uni resides in some outstanding architectural monuments, such as Old College as seen here..

With all the main parties hiding the details on what will be cut to tackle the current deficit, it is unlikely whoever gets in, there will be much left over for essential stuff like this. Most people realise it is charities, university research labs and big pharma who actuallly find these drugs, not central government. Maybe in the big Tory idea of 'everyone doing it for themselves', we should all be looking for these drugs ourselves? I read one satirical piece that suggested in this mode if we could not find a satisfactory hospital consultant the inferrence was that we should get a mirror and our own scalpal &
have a go.
It will be interesting to see what the reality is when the votes are counted and the job of dealing with that deficit starts. That could be like the colour shift in this image, a different kind of drug, a bad acid trip!

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4524488474 - '12 and 14 Nicolson Square are lovely old buildings in the old town of Edinburgh with distinctive old faded painted sign remnants in red. The square originally contained the properties of Sir James Nicolson, back pre-1800. Older maps reveal this at that time to probably be the extent of the city. Nearby Cabbagehall and Turnip Fields would have once produced food but were built over as the metropolis expanded. Nicholas Martinot looks to have been a prominent manufacturer of baskets and importer of other goods from 1890 or so onwards.
The text on the faded paint advertise 'Fancy Leathergoods' , 'Basket Manufacture', Rugs, Mats, walking Sticks, Hardware and Woodenware.
The Edinburgh Gazette of 1890 and 1892 note two 'bankrupt sequestrations' in which Martinot was elected joint commissioners. In issue 10128 (25th Feb 1890) page 180 they are involved in sequestration of Daniel S Johnston, fancy goods merchant at 103 Kirkgate and 131 Great Junction St Leith. In another issue 10363 the sequestration of a hardware, toy and Smallware merchant from 272 Canongate and 15 St Mary Street is involved ( www.edinburgh-gazette.co.uk/issues/10128/pages/180 &
www.edinburgh-gazette.co.uk/issues/10364/pages/670 ).
The building is now used by Edinburgh University, School of Arts, Culture &
Environment and the facilty is named Alison House.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4546943548 - 'One of my favourite watering holes in the city of Edinburgh. Delightfully tucked away off Princes Street and away from the rowdy bars of Rose Street. My default choice in there is Weihenstephan - '\u00e4lteste Brauerei der Welt' (lierally Dedicating Stefan - oldest brewery of the world), which is a lovely pint, in its own special tall glass. A plaque outside details its history.
The origins of the site was the Guildford Arms Hotel. This was more or less totally rteworked by Robert Macfarlane Cameron in 1898. It was modelled on the then popular victorian gin palace theme echoing the Phil in Liverpool and the Crown in Belfast among others. Most pubs were at the time male dominated and frankly dingy and possibly a little dangerous. The temperance movement is said to have encouraged the design of more luxurious pubs, particularly suitable for the fairer sex rather than just men.
The current configuration dates from 1940. However the centrepoint of the Guildford\u2019s late Victorian opulence is the magnificent Jacobean style ceiling which can be seen in this image. A row of real ale pumps on the bar all have the logo of DM Stewart, owner since victorian days.
A grand old Thorne Brothers Mirror hangs at the end of the bar. Just below the cornice height, wood panelling conceals a hidden room: legend has that this was aparently used to store spirits and other liquor which was pumped to the room from street level. A narrow walkway
leads from this room around the inner walls to the Gallery. This gallery now provides an ideal spot for diners to marvel at the superbly decorated ceiling or gaze down at the punters in the Public Bar. Both lunch and dinner are served in the Gallery Restaurant with lunch and snacks (Chilli Cashews is my weakness when in there) also served in the Lounge &
Public Bar areas. I can vouch for the excellent range of real ales. Usually a wider selection from Scotland (including the islands) than the neighbour to the south too. Readers of The Edinburgh Evening News voted the Guildford Arms Best City Bar in 1999. If you are in town and have a spare hour or so for victorian time travel, pop in!

Ledaig is the original name for the Tobermory Scotch whisky distillery on the isle of Mull, western Scotland. The distillery was founded in 1798 and the present buildings were erected during its first period of operation which continued until 1826. The distillery was 'silent' for long periods in the mid 1800s and mid 1900s and was twice revived during the 1970s. Now it has been revived again
The distillery belongs currently to Burn Stewart, closed in 1975, and reopened in 1990. Its main product, Tobermory single malt is used in the blends 'Scottish Leader' and 'Black Prince'. The distillery also produces a smaller amount of peated whisky, Ledaig (not quite as peaty as Lafroig). It is just to the left of the colourful harbour.
Single Malts mature at the Deanston Distillery in sherry and bourbon casks, they are then returned to Tobermory for the last few years. Burn Stewart also own this facility. Tobermory the Malt Scotch Whisky is presented in a bottle with an enamelled label. It is a vatted malt containing some Tobermory whiskies of up to 20-years old and proportions of newly-mature spirit from elsewhere.
Vatted malt is blended from malt whiskies from different distilleries. If a whisky is labelled 'pure malt' or just 'malt' it is almost certain to be a vatted whisky. This is also sometimes labelled as 'blended malt' whisky.

\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
Heres a track in celebration last week of itunes finally being able to offer the Beatles back catalog for download. On November 16th 17 official Beatles albums were made available for sale on Apple's iTunes Store. Also 13 remastered albums.
Now I must admit I was born slightly too late to appreciate totally the fab four's output. Revolver and Sgt Peppers are in my collection and a number of those singles compilations. No doubt that Lennon &
McCartney were the Morrissey &
Marr of that sixties generation. Before I get barraged with comments, that was just a bit of friendly Manc/Scouse banter!
'Ticket to Ride' is a song by The Beatles from their 1965 album, Help!. It was recorded 15th February 1965 and released two months later. The song lyrics describe a girl 'riding out of the life of the narrator', the inspiration of the title phrase is unclear.
McCartney said it was 'a British Railways ticket to the town of Ryde on the Isle of Wight', while Lennon said it described cards indicating a clean bill of health carried by Hamburg prostitutes in the 1960s. The Beatles played in Hamburg early in their musical career, and 'ride/riding' was slang for having sex.
The track has been covered by Sly and Robbie, The Bee Gees and Vanilla Fudge. Red Drawf fans will remember the episode 'Tikka to Ride', in accordance with the theme of curry on which the storyline focuses.
------------------------
Early bus operators had two problems to solve. One was that of fare dodgers and the other was the possibility of conductors who might fiddle the takings. Early machines were devised that punched tickets at appropriate stages (&
sounded a bell) then retained the coloured clipping. Hence the name 'Bell Punch' and the reference to lady bus conductors as 'Clippies' (see 'On The Buses').
The Bell Punch Company produced an automated version of their pre-printed ticket system, which they called 'Ultimate'. These used continuous ticket rolls with the values printed on them. Each ticket carried a serial number and a pre-printed value. The machines had several tracks each of which had a lever at the front that ejected a ticket, which was then roughly torn off against a serrated cutter.
The fare stage could be printed in one of three positions on the bottom of the ticket. Each new ticket roll had a piece of adhesive tape (which the conductor had to lick) to join it to the end of the old one, which was supposed to prevent the conductor having to change rolls mid-journey. The system coped better with changing fare structures, but after a while, the machines became unreliable and would jam up. It was not uncommon to see conductors tearing off tickets from the back of the machines at busy times.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy D8FBCH - The Bell Punch Company was a British company manufacturing a variety of business machines, most notably several generations of public transport ticket machines and the worlds first desktop electronic calculator, the Sumlock ANITA.
History
The company was established in July 1878 in order to acquire the patent rights to an American hand-registering ticket punch that was being used by a number of British tramway companies. By 1884 they had begun development of their own range of ticket printing machines. In 1891 they began supplying ticketing machines for London General Omnibus Company. From then until its demise, Bell Punch would have an unbroken history of supplying successive London bus companies, along with many other bus operators throughout the country.
The first half of the 20th century saw the company expand into different markets, including in cinema and theatre ticketing, horse race totalisator ticket machines, taximeters and mechanical calculators.
In the Second World War the company developed and manufactured a variety of military equipment, including mechanical aircraft navigation computers and naval gunnery sighting and ranging devices.
In 1958 it began development of a desktop electronic calculator, which came to market as the Sumlock ANITA in 1961. The calculator division was established as Sumlock Anita Electronics Ltd in 1966. It was to become the largest supplier of calculators in the U.K., with sales of £4.5 million in 1971. In 1972 they developed one of the first electronic pocket calculators, but were beaten to the market by Sinclair Radionics due to lack of management enthusiasm for the project. In 1973 Sumlock Anita Electronics were acquired by Rockwell International who closed down the operation in 1976.
The remainder of the business continued to be owned by the then parent company, Control Systems Ltd which was acquired the Swedish Incentive Group in the early 1980s which resulted in the break-up of the company

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4442105524 - 'This is a panoramic view from the reclaimed industrial land at the foot of the Royal Mile, where (Our) Dynamic Earth sits. It is a science centre in Edinburgh, Scotland and a popular visitor attraction and venue for exhibitions etc in the city. It is a stitched joiner of four images.
From its doors on the third floor, the Scottish Parliament and Holyrood Palace can be seen. It opened in 1999 and was a UK Millennium Commission project. It is within the walls of the the William Younger Centre, which is a distinctive castle-esque landmark building.
Dynamic Earth's architects were Michael Hopkins and Partners. The centre concentrates on earth science and the forces that have shaped the earth.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4393241074 - 'The grave of Rob Roy MacGregor, who died 28th December 1734 aged 70 is within the grounds of Balquhidder church looking over Loch Voil.
The stone over Rob Roy's grave reads 'MacGregor Despite Them' The MacGregor clan was the only clan in history to be 'proscribed' - that is, it became illegal to be a MacGregor, on three separate occasions. To survive, clan members took on other names, many of which their descendants still use today.
The Graves of Rob Roy and Helen/Mary MacGregor and their sons Coll and Robert are also interred there.
In the kirkyard of Balquhidder's Parish Church, the ruins of the Old Church it replaced can be clearly seen up the hill behind Rob Roy's grave. Its situated on the lower slopes of the north side of Balquhidder Glen. It reflects the continuation of a tradition of worship in the glen that goes back 4000 years or more. The Celts believed this to be a 'thin place' where the spiritual world and the earthly world came close together. To the south is a spur of Ben Ledi ('the hill of God') and traces of a Neolithic temple dating back to 1800 BC have been found in the glen.
A graveyard stone describes how the MacLarens were attacked by the MacGregors of Glen Dochart. 18 MacLaren families resident in Balquhidder were murdered in the Glen before settling on their land. At the time the MacGregors largely evaded responsibility for what would today be called an act of genocide. But it was one of the factors later held against them (the more immediate being their slaying of several hundred members of Clan Colquhoun at the Battle of Glen Fruin on 7 February 1603) when the entire Clan MacGregor was outlawed by James VI in April 1603. These were very bloody times. It became a capital offence even to carry the name MacGregor.

It is quite close to Oxfordshire's white horse at Ridgeway / Uffington Castle, An iron age hill fort covering over 30,000 sq metres, which was still in use in the Roman era. The nearby Wiltshire Three Castles Brewery make an excellent nutty 4.2% bitter called Uffington Castle and this was on at the Star and Mike is holding its pump here with his left hand.
Dawn and Mike have recently moved in and not yet seen spring or summer in the village. Theres a mixture of homecooked food and locals can pre-order and pop in with a plate to take it away if they want. Guest ales change every month from the local Hook Norton brewery and they had a well kept London Pride on there too. Note they have the Aspall traditional cider in stock too.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4392932861 - 'The three graces on the Liverpool mersey waterfront at dusk, after rain showers.
These important architectural landmarks are:
The Royal Liver Building, built between 1908 and 1911 and designed by Walter Aubrey Thomas. It is a grade I listed building consisting of two clock towers, both crowned by mythical Liver Birds. The building is the headquarters of the Royal Liver Friendly Society. Now Deutsche Bank.
The Cunard Building, constructed between 1914 and 1916 and a grade II* listed building. It is the former headquarters of the Cunard Line shipping company.
The Port of Liverpool Building, built from 1903 to 1907 and also grade II* listed. It is the former home of the Mersey Docks and Harbour Board.
Added to this left and right is the new Beatles exhiition and the museum of Liverpool life.
Work commenced in 2007 to build a canal link between the Leeds-Liverpool Canal and the South Docks. The \u00a322 million pound 1.6 mile extension to the Leeds-Liverpool Canal was officially opened on 25 March 2009. It opens to boaters at the end of April and links the 127 miles of the existing canal to the city\u2019s South Docks, passing Pier Head and the famous Three Graces. The Pier Head was in this form for the 2008 city of culture celebrations.
At first, the Prince's Landing Stage was situated at the Pier Head to serve the trans-Atlantic liner service. There were many stages built during Liverpool's history, the most recent opened in the 1890s and was joined to the neighbouring George's Landing Stage, situated to the south. After further lengthening took place in the early twentieth century, the combined structure originally measured nearly 3,000 feet, almost half a mile. Both were scrapped in 1973, following the termination of trans-Atlantic services from Liverpool.
In the three years or so I worked in Liverpool, Pier Head served as a major bus interchange. There was also a very poor Beefeater / Berni Inn pub at the Pier head too, where the Beatles exhibition is today.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4352626358 - 'Going back not too many years I used to work in Stockport, on the south of the Manchester conurbation (or Stokeport as the doomsday book apparently has it) and grew to know it quite well. More the old bits rather than the brutal Merseyway built over the top of the old Stockport Grammer School etc. I would often frequent the market place, Queens head, Bakers and Arden Arms, with St Marys Church at the top.
In my day the old Emersons wall advert was still covered up in Park Street (by an advertisment hoarding I think). It now adds a feeling of time to the marketplace, particularly when all the stalls have gone and only the church bells at the top of the road can be heard. It is partularly eary at dusk or early night time in this place when its deserted by traders, the council have tidied away all the cardboard and only victorian ghosts fill the streets.
Stockport Market is a collection of small traditional shops. Charlie on the Cheese Stall, the lady who does the alterations and of course the little cafe. It dates back to the 16th century as does the centre of town by 1884 it was the hub of the country's hatting industry. By which it was exporting more than six million hats a year. (Mental Note: One day I must make time to visit the the 'Museum of Hatting').
I once did a photoshoot for the short lived Stockport Ghost Tour.
This is the end of town where you would expect ghosts to be active. a place where victorian carriages would have drawn up, or maybe where public hangings would have taken place.
For sure, an interesting little bit of Englands North West.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4957168619 - 'Love Will Tear Us Apart - 'Joy Division' - Play this track ob=av2n\' rel=\'nofollow\'>here.
\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
Joy Division were a Manchester post-punk band formed in 1976 in Salford, England. Originally named Warsaw. It consisted of Ian Curtis (vox), Barney or Bernard Sumner (Guitar/Keyboards/Occasional Bass), Peter Hook (Bass/Backing Vocals/Occasional guitar) and Steve Morris (Percussion).
I came across them first supporting JCC (John Cooper Clark) at the Manchester Free Trade Hall Monday 25th June 1979. That day is etched on my mind as it was a mind-blowing event for me, seeing Ian Curtis and the powerful presence he had on that stage. I dont think a band has had that effect on me since and I have seen probably thousands of live gigs.
I bought Joy Division's debut album, 'Unknown Pleasures' the day it was released, in its special textured cover, then promptly played it to death. The original LP release contained no track information on the labels, nor the traditional 'side one' and 'side two' designations. The ostensible 'side one' was labeled Outside and displayed a reproduction of the image on the album cover, while the other side was labeled Inside and displayed the same image with the colours reversed (black-on-white). Track information and album credits appeared on the inner sleeve only.
This single 'Love will tear us apart' appeared after teh release of the second album Closer. It debuted when the band supported Buzzcocks on their UK tour in September and October 1979. It is one of the few songs in which singer Ian Curtis played guitar (albeit somewhat minimally). The lyrics ostensibly reflect the problems in Ian Curtis's marriage to Deborah Curtis, as well as his general frame of mind in the time leading up to his suicide in May 1980. Deborah Curtis had the phrase 'Love Will Tear Us Apart' inscribed on Ian Curtis's memorial stone.
It appears on the Substance compilation album. It was first recorded for a John Peel session in November 1979, then re-recorded in January 1980 and March 1980. It is the latter version that appears on Substance. The January 1980 version originally appeared as the single's B-side.
In 1995, to publicise the release of Permanent, the track was reissued, complete with a new remix done by Arthur Baker and a new radio edit, also known as the Permanent Mix. On September 24, 2007 (2007-09-24), the single was again reissued, in its original configuration. This time, it was to publicise the Collector's Edition re-issues of the band's three albums. Although the single was now issued on the Warner label, it retained all the classic Factory packaging, down to the FAC 23 catalogue number.
It has been covered by the world and his wife, including U2, Arcade Fire, The Cure and others. On the video for the song, at the very beginning, the door that swings open and shut has the initials of the band members carved into it. The video was shot by the band themselves as they recorded the song.
It includes production errors with colour being 'browned out' at some points. Due to another production error the vocals as sung by Curtis during the video didn't come out as intended. The song as originally recorded in the video sounds much more like that in their Peel Session. Curtis re-recorded the vocals separately with the hint of melancholy that helps make it distinctive. The oddly-shaped guitar played by Ian Curtis is a Vox Phantom (Often wrongly believed to be the Vox Mark III).
To learn more about JD, track down the 'Substance' compilation and the book 'Touching From A Distance' by Deborah Curtis. The devout Joy Division fan Anton Corbijn film 'Control' is a great starting point for getting to know the bands history. Tell 'em I sent you :-)

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 3875569520 - 'The D-Mark (Deutsche Mark) Sadly lost in 1999.
Taken at a silver service tearoom cafe near Bonn, West Germany.
The Deutsche Mark or German mark was the official currency of West Germany (1948\u20131990) and Germany (1990\u20132002) until the adoption of the euro in 2002. The old East Germany had their own 'East German Mark' or Ostmark or Mark der DDR.
It was first issued under Allied occupation in 1948 replacing the Reichsmark, and served as the Federal Republic of Germany's official currency from its founding the following year until 1999, when the Mark was replaced by the euro
its coins and banknotes remained in circulation, defined in terms of euros, until the introduction of euro notes and coins in early 2002.
The Deutsche Mark ceased to be legal tender immediately upon the introduction of the euro\u2014in contrast to the other Eurozone nations, where the euro and legacy currency circulated side by side for up to two months. DM coins and banknotes continued to be accepted as valid forms of payment in Germany until 28 February 2002.
The Deutsche Bundesbank has guaranteed that all German mark in cash form may be changed into euros indefinitely, and one may do so at any branch of the Bundesbank in Germany. Banknotes can even be sent to the bank by mail.
Unfortunately in recent months the German nation has been bailing a big chunk of Europe's eurozone out. Much to the iritation of the German nation I suspect.
Germany's top court has ruled that aid for Greece and rescue packages for other eurozone countries was legal but said parliament must have greater say in any future bailout deals.
The Constitutional Court, based in Karlsruhe, western Germany, was responding to a challenge brought by six leading German Eurosceptics.
The five academics and one politician argued that the bailouts violated property rights and broke the 'no bailout' clause in the European Union's treaty.
In a landmark ruling, eagerly anticipated by jittery financial markets, the court said all 'large-scale' future aid packages must be approved by the parliament's budget committee.
Makes me glad Britain stayed with the pound sterling.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 3690682655 - 'A bowl of lovely orange ripe apricots.
The apricot (Prunus armeniaca) is a species of Prunus, classified with the plum in the subgenus Prunus. The native range is somewhat uncertain due to its extensive prehistoric cultivation.
The apricot was known in Armenia during ancient times, and has been cultivated there for so long it is often thought to be native there. Its scientific name Prunus armeniaca (Armenian plum) derives from that assumption. For example, De Poerderl\u00e9, writing in the 18th century, asserted 'Cet arbre tire son nom de l'Arm\u00e9nie, province d'Asie, d'o\u00f9 il est originaire et d'o\u00f9 il fut port\u00e9 en Europe ...' ('this tree takes its name from Armenia, province of Asia, where it is native, and whence it was brought to Europe ...'). An archaeological excavation at Garni in Armenia found apricot seeds in an Eneolithic-era site. However, the Vavilov center of origin locates the origin of the apricot's domestication in the Chinese region, and other sources say the apricot was first cultivated in India in about 3000 BC.
Its introduction to Greece is attributed to Alexander the Great, and the Roman General Lucullus (106\u201357 B.C.) also exported some trees \u2013 the cherry, white heart cherry, and apricot \u2013 from Armenia to Europe. Subsequent sources were often confused about the origin of the species. Loudon (1838) believed it had a wide native range including Armenia, Caucasus, the Himalaya, China, and Japan.
Today the cultivars have spread to all parts of the globe with climates that support it.

\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
This classic track can be found on 'A Beard of Stars'. Its the fourth album by Tyrannosaurus Rex (Trex), comprising Marc Bolan (vocals, guitar, organ, bass) and the first with new partner Mickey Finn (percussion). It was released in March 1970. It is notable for the beginning of Bolan using electric instruments on the T.Rex albums.
Early Tyrannosaurus Rex released four albums and four singles, flirting with the charts, reaching as high as number fifteen and supported with airplay by legendary Radio 1 DJ John Peel. One of the highlights of this era was when the duo played at the first free Hyde Park concert in 1968.
Although the free-spirited, drug-taking Steve Took was fired from the group after their first American tour, they were a force to be reckoned within the hippy underground scene while they lasted. Their music was filled with Marc's otherworldly poetry, a book of which he published in 1969, 'The Warlock Of Love'. In keeping with his early rock and roll interests, Bolan began bringing amplified guitar lines into the duo's music, buying a vintage Gibson Les Paul guitar (later featured on the cover of the album T. Rex in 1970).
After replacing Took with Mickey Finn, he let the electric influences come forward even further on A Beard of Stars, the final album to be credited to Tyrannosaurus Rex. It closed with the song 'Elemental Child,' featuring a long electric guitar break influenced by Jimi Hendrix.
Bolan, by now married to his girlfriend June Child (a former secretary to the manager of another of his heroes, Syd Barrett), shortened the group's name to T. Rex and wrote and recorded 'Ride a White Swan', dominated by a rolling, hand clapping back-beat, Bolan's electric guitar and Finn's percussion.
Bolan and his producer Tony Visconti oversaw the session for 'Ride a White Swan', the single that changed Bolan's career. Recorded on 1 July 1970 and released later that year, it made slow progress in the UK Top 40, until it finally peaked in early 1971 at number two.
Bolan took to wearing top hats and feather boas on stage as well as putting drops of glitter on each of his cheekbones. Stories are conflicting about his inspiration for this\u2014some say it was introduced by his personal assistant, Chelita Secunda, although Bolan told John Pidgeon in a 1974 interview on Radio 1 that he noticed the glitter on his wife's dressing table prior to a photo session and casually daubed some on his face there and then. Other performers\u2014and their fans\u2014soon took up variations on the idea. Glam rock was born.
