Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DCX6FR - The sculpture A Monument to Vimto located in Vimto Park on Granby Row, Manchester M1 7HR, England, UK. The artwork commemorates the creation of the Vimto soft drink, which was first developed on this site in 1908 by John Noel Nichols. A Monument to Vimto is a public sculpture located in Vimto Park on Granby Row, Manchester M1 7HR, within an area that now forms part of the University of Manchester campus. The monument marks the exact site where Vimto was first created in 1908 by Manchester entrepreneur John Noel Nichols, originally developed as a herbal health tonic.
While Vimto is a familiar British soft drink, it has achieved exceptional cultural significance during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, where it is widely regarded as a traditional iftar drink and is consumed when the daily fast is broken at sunset. In many Middle Eastern countries and Muslim communities worldwide, Vimto is so closely associated with Ramadan that it is often colloquially described as the unofficial drink of Ramadan , reflecting custom rather than formal designation.
The sculpture itself takes the form of an oversized Vimto bottle surrounded by stylised fruit elements, referencing both the drink's flavour profile and its historic branding, including the slogan Vimto “ The Ideal Beverage . Vimto Park was created as part of city-centre regeneration and named to acknowledge the drink's Manchester origins and its journey from local invention to global cultural icon.
Photographed in daylight, the image documents a distinctive Manchester landmark that connects industrial heritage, global consumer culture and multicultural traditions, illustrating how a product invented in Edwardian Manchester became embedded in religious and social practices far beyond the UK.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2T35BY2 - This commercially useful editorial image shows Old Ye Olde Corner Shoppe, Morgan St, Off Licence, fresh fruit & veg , Mile End, London, England, E3 5AA. The row metadata places the subject at Mile End, lost, closed, stores, London, E3 5AA. The spreadsheet date indicates 07 September 2023, so the picture can also work as a time-specific archive record. Plainly, the image is useful because it shows Mile End, lost, closed, stores, store, shops, Ye Olde Corner Shoppe, corner, with search-relevant terms including Mile End, lost, closed, stores, store, shops, Ye Olde Corner Shoppe, corner, cornershop, purple, London, England, UK, east. The value lies in the combination of place, object, wording and context, giving editors something specific and grounded rather than generic filler imagery. London details are useful because the city layers national politics, migration, commerce, tourism, neighbourhood change and local high streets. East End, Westminster and Holborn subjects can all carry wider meaning beyond their immediate street address. The subject has broad editorial value because it shows an everyday detail that can be used to explain wider themes such as local identity, public services, consumer culture, changing towns, regional economies and contemporary life. The image can work as a lead picture, a supporting cutaway, a contextual inset or a visual metaphor for wider stories about place, services, consumer behaviour, heritage, transport, culture and public life. Historically and socially, this kind of image can help connect past and present: older streets, civic institutions, transport systems, shops, signs, political messages or public services are not frozen museum pieces, but part of how people understand modern life, local identity and economic change. For SEO and stock-photo discovery, the description deliberately supports searches around London, documentary.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R0MKDG - Muesli is a cold Swiss breakfast dish, the primary ingredient of which is rolled oats. Most often, it is set to soak overnight and eaten the next morning. Additional ingredients, such as grains, nuts, seeds, and fresh or dried fruits, are added, along with milk or cream, a squeeze of citrus juice, and honey to add sweetness.[3] Yoghurt or other mammal or plant milk products are now commonly added to both homemade and commercially packaged muesli recipes.
Developed around 1900 by Swiss physician Maximilian Bircher-Benner for patients in his hospital,[4] it is now eaten as a standard breakfast dish, like a breakfast cereal, and in Switzerland also for supper as Birchermüesli complet “ muesli with Café complet (milk coffee, accompanied by bread, butter and jam (Butterbrot)).
In addition to being prepared raw, muesli can be toasted. Muesli can also be processed further by adding sweetener and oil to bind the ingredients together and baked to produce granola.
Etymology
Originally known in Swiss German as Birchermüesli after its creator Bircher-Benner or simply Müesli, the word is an Alemannic diminutive of Mues (non-Swiss Standard German: Mus) meaning mush or purée

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JTD3KD - Grappenhall Heys Walled Garden is a historic walled garden in Grappenhall, Warrington, Cheshire, England. The garden was built by Thomas Parr around 1830 as both a pleasure garden for relaxing strolls and as a kitchen garden to produce fruit, vegetables, and herbs. After a period of decline, the garden was restored first by English Partnerships and then by the local parish council in conjunction with the friends of the garden
The walled garden was built around 1830 by Warrington banker Thomas Parr to accompany a mansion house. Thomas Parr's father, Joseph Parr, founded Parr's Bank and Thomas was appointed Chairman of the bank. Before opening the bank, Joseph Parr had made his wealth in the sugar refining industry that supported the slave trade in the British West Indies. Parr's bank amalgamated through acquisitions into the NatWest.
Unusually, Parr included both a pleasure garden and a kitchen garden within the same boundary wall. In addition to enjoying their garden, the Parr family held frequent galas and special events for the community. One annual event called Beating the Bounds involved a walk around the boundaries of the townships of Lymm, Appleton, and Grappenhall, which included the garden. Historical records suggest that the estate was at its height from 1875 to 1899.
By the 1950s, the estate had become derelict and parts of it were sold off. The house was demolished in the 1970s and the garden passed to English Partnerships for renovation. In 2005 control of the garden passed to Grappenhall and Thelwall Parish Council, which continued restoration in conjunction with a community group called The Friends of Grappenhall Heys Walled Garden. In 2012 the garden was given a Heritage Lottery Fund award towards repair of the Victorian glasshouses and completion of the restoration

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JRM368 - Rock (often known by its place of origin, for instance Blackpool rock or Brighton rock) is a type of hard stick-shaped boiled sugar confectionery most usually flavoured with peppermint or spearmint. It is commonly sold at tourist (usually seaside) resorts in the United Kingdom (such as Brighton, Southend-on-Sea, Scarborough, Llandudno or Blackpool) and Ireland (e.g. Bray and Strandhill)
in Gibraltar
in Denmark in towns such as Løkken and Ebeltoft
and in Sydney and Tasmania, Australia.
It usually takes the form of a cylindrical stick (a stick of rock), normally 1“2.5 cm (0.39“0.98 in) in diameter and 20“25 cm (7.9“9.8 in) long. Blackpool rock is usually at least 2.5 cm (0.98 in) in diameter, and can be as thick as 17 cm (6.7 in) across and up to 2 m (6.6 ft) long when made for special retail displays. These cylinders usually have a pattern embedded throughout the length, which is often the name of the resort where the rock is sold, so that the name can be read on both ends of the stick (reversed at one end) and remains legible even after pieces are bitten off. Rock is also manufactured as a promotional item, for example with a company name running through it.
It is sometimes found in the form of individual sweets, with writing or a pattern in the centre
these are, in effect, slices of rock.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JHB70F - A hot cross bun is a spiced sweet bun usually made with fruit, marked with a cross on the top, and has been traditionally eaten on Good Friday in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Canada, India, Pakistan and the United States. They are available all year round in some places, including the UK
The bun marks the end of the Christian season of Lent and different parts of the hot cross bun have a certain meaning, including the cross representing the crucifixion of Jesus, and the spices inside signifying the spices used to embalm him at his burial and may also include orange peel to reflect the bitterness of his time on the Cross
One theory is that the contemporary hot cross bun originates from St Albans, in England, where, in 1361, Brother Thomas Rodcliffe, a 14th-century monk at St Albans Abbey, developed a similar recipe called an 'Alban Bun' and distributed the bun to the local poor on Good Friday.
In 1592, during the reign of Elizabeth I of England, the London Clerk of Markets issued a decree forbidding the sale of hot cross buns and other spiced breads, except at burials, on Good Friday, or at Christmas. The punishment for transgressing the decree was forfeiture of all the forbidden product to the poor. As a result of this decree, hot cross buns at the time were primarily made in domestic kitchens. Further attempts to suppress the sale of these items took place during the reign of James I of England (1603“1625)
The traditional method for making the cross on top of the bun is to use shortcrust pastry, though some 21st century recipes recommended a paste of flour and water

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K3TJWB - Love Hearts are a type of confectionery manufactured by Swizzels Matlow in the United Kingdom. They are hard, tablet-shaped sweets in various fruit flavors featuring a short, love-related message on one side of the sweet. They are an updated version of Victorian-era Conversation Lozenges
On chewing, the sweet quickly disintegrates into a powdery, starchy consistency
Love Hearts currently come in six flavors, each associated with a color (listed from weakest to strongest flavor):..
White (a plain, sherbet-like, slightly tart vanilla flavor)
Yellow (a sherbet-like flavor with a distinct sharp lemon aftertaste)
Green (a slight lime flavor with a sherbet-like aftertaste)
Orange (a sweet flavor with a slight orange aftertaste)
Purple (an unusual, slightly perfumed berry-like flavor with a strong aftertaste)
Red (cherry flavor)
There are many different messages which can be found on the front of the sweet, most of which are love-related. The message is written in capitals in a sans serif font of varying size. The font is scaled and sometimes stretched out of proportion to fit the available space.
Most messages are written in simple horizontal, centrally aligned lines. There are some exceptions to this rule, including the phrase I Surrender, where the word surrender has been written in an arc around the lower inside edge of the heart outline.
The Just Say No message has an unclear layout, appearing to read Just say No.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K3XN94 - Rhubarb forcers are bell-shaped pots with a lidded opening at the top, used to cover rhubarb to limit photosynthesis. They encourage the plant to grow early in the season and also to produce blanched stems. The pots are placed over two- to three-year-old rhubarb crowns during winter or very early spring. Once shoots appear the lid is taken off, causing them to grow towards the light.
Around 18 inches (46 cm) high and 14 inches (36 cm) wide without the lid, they are traditionally made of terracotta but can be as simple as an upside down plastic bucket

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy PCTAFD - Aesculus hippocastanum is a large tree, growing to about 39 metres (128 ft) tall with a domed crown of stout branches
on old trees the outer branches are often pendulous with curled-up tips. The leaves are opposite and palmately compound, with 5“7 leaflets
each leaflet is 13“30 cm long, making the whole leaf up to 60 cm across, with a 7“20 cm petiole. The leaf scars left on twigs after the leaves have fallen have a distinctive horseshoe shape, complete with seven nails. The flowers are usually white with a yellow to pink blotch at the base of the petals
they are produced in spring in erect panicles 10“30 cm tall with about 20“50 flowers on each panicle. Usually only 1“5 fruit develop on each panicle
the shell is a green, spiky capsule containing one (rarely two or three) nut-like seeds called conkers or horse-chestnuts. Each conker is 2“4 cm diameter, glossy nut-brown with a whitish scar at the base.
The common name horse-chestnut (often unhyphenated) is reported as having originated from the erroneous belief that the tree was a kind of chestnut (though in fact only distantly related), together with the observation that the fruit could help panting horses.
Aesculus hippocastanum is native to a small area in the Pindus Mountains mixed forests and Balkan mixed forests of South East Europe. However, it can be found in many parts of Europe as far north as Gästrikland in Sweden, as well as in many parks and cities in the United States and Canada.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy PBRY2N - The cultivation of the domesticated grape began 6,000“8,000 years ago in the Near East. Yeast, one of the earliest domesticated microorganisms, occurs naturally on the skins of grapes, leading to the discovery of alcoholic drinks such as wine. The earliest archeological evidence for a dominant position of wine-making in human culture dates from 8,000 years ago in Georgia. The oldest known winery was found in Armenia, dating to around 4000 BC.
By the 9th century AD the city of Shiraz was known to produce some of the finest wines in the Middle East. Thus it has been proposed that Syrah red wine is named after Shiraz, a city in Persia where the grape was used to make Shirazi wine. Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics record the cultivation of purple grapes, and history attests to the ancient Greeks, Phoenicians, and Romans growing purple grapes for both eating and wine production. The growing of grapes would later spread to other regions in Europe, as well as North Africa, and eventually in North America.
In North America, native grapes belonging to various species of the genus Vitis proliferate in the wild across the continent, and were a part of the diet of many Native Americans, but were considered by European colonists to be unsuitable for wine. Vitis vinifera cultivars were imported for that purpose.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JHBJPE - Covent Garden is a district in London, on the eastern fringes of the West End, between St Martin's Lane and Drury Lane. It is associated with the former fruit-and-vegetable market in the central square, now a popular shopping and tourist site, and with the Royal Opera House, itself known as Covent Garden. The district is divided by the main thoroughfare of Long Acre, north of which is given over to independent shops centred on Neal's Yard and Seven Dials, while the south contains the central square with its street performers and most of the historical buildings, theatres and entertainment facilities, including the London Transport Museum and the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane.
By 1654 a small open-air fruit-and-vegetable market had developed on the south side of the fashionable square. Gradually, both the market and the surrounding area fell into disrepute, as taverns, theatres, coffee-houses and brothels opened up. By the 18th century it had become notorious for its abundance of brothels. An Act of Parliament was drawn up to control the area, and Charles Fowler's neo-classical building was erected in 1830 to cover and help organise the market. The market grew and further buildings were added: the Floral Hall, Charter Market, and in 1904 the Jubilee Market. By the end of the 1960s traffic congestion was causing problems, and in 1974 the market relocated to the New Covent Garden Market about three miles (5 km) south-west at Nine Elms. The central building re-opened as a shopping centre in 1980 and is now a tourist location containing cafes, pubs, small shops, and a craft market called the Apple Market, along with another market held in the Jubilee Hall.

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

they are on average smaller than round plums but larger than mirabelle plums (usually between 2 and 4 cm diameter).
The skin ranges in colour from green to yellowish, with a pale blue blush in some cultivars
a few Reine Claudes “ such as 'Graf Althanns' “, are reddish-purple due to crossbreeding with other plums. Greengages are grown in temperate areas and are known for the rich, confectionery flavour. They are considered to be among the finest dessert plums.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DCYNH2 - The Sutton is one of the heaviest yielding rhubarbs, with heavy yields of solid quality stems. Also known as Suttons Seedless this rhubarb is a mid-season cropper, best harvested in May or perhaps June in the North.
Browse our variety of rhubarb plants and crowns or see our full range of soft fruit bushes for sale.
Growing The Sutton:
As with all rhubarb, deep, rich soil with good drainage is important. Rhubarb roots grow deep so good preparation pays dividends - dig in plenty of well rotted manure and/or compost before planting. If rhubarb crowns get too damp in winter, they will rot and die, so if there is any doubt over drainage mound the rhubarb bed so the crowns are above ground level. Never cover them with mulch.
The ideal soil for rhubarb is neutral to slightly acidic
it will tolerate quite acidic soil, but yields will be smaller. Chalk or limestone soils are less suitable and need more improvement.
Spacing: The Sutton rhubarb is a big plant so increase spacing a bit and plant about 110 cms apart in a sunny position as rhubarb hates the shade.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DCYNWH - Long, scarlet stems that have a deliciously sweet taste. Though an old variety, it is easy to grow, reliable and early. Perfect for fertile, well-drained areas of the vegetable garden or allotment, once planted it should not be moved and appreciates a generous annual mulch of well-rotted compost or manure.
Garden care:Rhubarb crowns (or sets) are sent out in a packet containing a little compost, but are generally considered as ˜bare root'. They will just look like a section of root, but as soon as they arrive they should be unpacked and planted out within a few days. Potted rhubarb can be planted out at any time of the year provided the ground is not frozen.
Rhubarb needs an open, sunny spot with fertile, moist but freely-draining soil. Heavy soils should be avoided as overly-wet conditions in winter may rot the crowns. Rhubarb does need a cold period before it will start to put on new growth in spring, however hard frosts may damage the newly emerging growth, so try not to plant in a frost pocket if you can. Prepare the bed well by removing weeds and digging in composted manure, and plant the crowns at intervals of 75cm - 1m, making sure the dormant buds are just below the surface of the soil. Keep well watered and in spring apply a dressing of composted manure, making sure you avoid covering the crown of the plant. Sulphate of ammonia can be applied in summer. It is important that the stalks are not harvested in their first year as this will adversely affect the plants vigour, but cut any old, yellow leaves off after they have faded and remove all the leaves after they have died back in autumn. You should also remove any flowering stalks which appear. In the second year, you may start to harvest some of the stems, but restrict yourself to between a third and a half of the total crop, leaving the rest to mature on the plant.

Eighteen is a composite number, its proper divisors being 1, 2, 3, 6 and 9. Three of these divisors (3, 6 and 9) add up to 18, hence 18 is a semiperfect number. Eighteen is the first inverted square-prime of the form p.q2.
It is a heptagonal number, and as the sum of the first three pentagonal numbers, it is a pentagonal pyramidal number. It is also the sum of the totient function for the first seven integers. It is the sixth lucas number.
Eighteen is the second abundant number with the aliquot sum of 21 (117% in abundance) in the aliquot sequence (18, 21, 11, 1, 0) thus being the first composite number in the 11-aliquot tree. Eighteen is the aliquot sum of only one number the square 289.
In base 10 it is a Harshad number.
18, aside from 0, is the only number that equals twice the sum of its decimal digits.
There are 18 chapters in the Bhagavad Gita, which is contained in the Mahabharata, which has 18 books. The Kurukshetra War which the epic depicts, is between 18 armies (11 on the Kuru side, 7 on the Pandava). 18 is the number of holes in a stipulated round of golf and in a standard Swiss Romont reserve Gruyere.
Enjoy this fine track from Alice Cooper.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4693898753 - 'June is the start of the appearance of the British strawberry. Much prized later in the month and sold at great expense at Wimbledon. Earlier spanish fruit is generally on sale, this is very forced and to my taste not as favourful as the native fruit in season.
Strawberry is a genus of plants (Fragaria) in the family Rosaceae. Traditionally, part of the british strawberry's appeal is that its short, six-week season which co-ordinates with the brief, long-awaited British summer. These days, however, the British strawberry season extends from mid-April until mid-December, thanks to the increased use of forcing via plastic polytunnels.
These provide the berries with a warmer, more protected environment - and a much longer growing season, while managing to blight a lot of our local landscape. Regretably, just one variety of strawberry, Elsanta, accounts for 80 per cent of the British fruit sold in UK supermarket. Many other varieties are available from farmers' markets and pick-your-own farms and if you have a real interest in the food you eat, search a little harder to discover them. Your taste buds will thank you!
If you buy them chilled, let them warm up before eating. Try stirring them into melted chocolate or mashed up with meringues and whipped cream to form 'Eton Mess'. I had some of this only last night and it reminded me how brilliant those often over looked summer deserts actually are.
Back in my days working in Higher Openshaw, east Manchester I was close to the Robertsons jam factory in Droylesden. This was built in 1891, and closed in 2008, demolished in 2010. Reject strawberry jam was prized by the workers, due to its over abundence of fruit. A few of my friends had relatives working there and if they could get hold of a few jars, the more the better!

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.
