Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3ECEE46 - A hand holds a newly dispensed King Charles III Bank of England £10 note in front of a UK ATM cash machine, showing the new monarch's portrait entering everyday public use through ordinary cash withdrawals. The close-up view of the polymer ten pound note, cash slot and keypad makes this a strong editorial image for stories about British money, personal finance, banking, access to cash, ATM services, the cash economy and the historic currency change following the death of Queen Elizabeth II. Banknotes featuring King Charles III were first issued on 5 June 2024, appearing on the existing £5, £10, £20 and £50 designs with no other design changes. The Bank of England has said Queen Elizabeth II notes remain legal tender and co-circulate with the new King Charles III notes, meaning both portraits can be used together during the gradual transition. This image is commercially useful for illustrating the first appearance of new UK banknotes in daily life, cash withdrawals, banknote security, polymer money, consumer spending, household budgets, retail payments, digital banking debates and financial inclusion. The photograph also works for articles on the continuing need for cash among older people, vulnerable households, small traders, rural communities and people who prefer physical money for budgeting. The ATM keypad, cancel and enter buttons, and the hand gripping the note add practical detail, making the image more grounded than a studio banknote shot. It can support features on the future of cash, bank branch closures, free-to-use cash machines, contactless payments, inflation, the cost of living, economic confidence and the symbolic role of monarchs on British currency. As a documentary stock image, it captures a small but recognisable moment in UK financial history, when King Charles III banknotes moved from official release into the ordinary routine of taking money out of a cashpoint.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K01H1Y - The number of states headed by Queen Elizabeth II varied during her 70 years on the throne, altogether seeing her as sovereign of a total of 32 independent countries during this period. In her capacity as Queen of the United Kingdom (including the British overseas territories), she was also monarch of three Crown Dependencies”the Channel Island of Guernsey and Jersey (as the Duke of Normandy), and the Isle of Man (as the Lord of Mann)”and, in her capacity as Queen of New Zealand, she was monarch of two associated states”the Cook Islands and Niue”after they acquired this status in 1965 and 1974, respectively.
Two situations in two countries differ from the others. The government of the unrecognised state of Rhodesia proclaimed its allegiance to Elizabeth II as Queen of Rhodesia from 1965 to 1970. However, she did not accept either the role or the title and it was not accepted or recognised by any other state. Fiji became a republic through a military coup in 1987, after which its Great Council of Chiefs continued to recognise Elizabeth II as queen, or Paramount Chief of Fiji, until the council's de-establishment on 14 March 2012. However, this was only a ceremonial title, with no role in government at all

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JGM7AW - The Motor (later, just Motor) was a British weekly car magazine founded on 28 January 1903 and published by Temple Press. It was initially launched as Motorcycling and Motoring in 1902 before the title was shortened.[1] From the 14 March 1964 issue the magazine name was simply Motor. Compared to rival The Autocar (later, just Autocar), Motor was more informative and more conservative.
The magazine usually included:
News and scoops of the latest cars
Motorsport news and results
Car reviews “ normally two, both 2 pages long with specifications and impressions.
Road tests “ one per week and very detailed
In 1988, the journal was absorbed by its long-standing rival Autocar, which became, from the 7 September issue, Autocar & Motor. Six years later, with the 21 September 1994 issue, the name reverted to Autocar.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RM9ATJ - The closest pub to London Bridge tube is also the most down to earth. The OKH, like its more famous neighbour The George Inn, can be found down one of those ancient alleyways that branch like pili from Borough High Street ” look for the hanging sign over the pathway. Inside, the main room looks like it's stuck in some former decade, with glossy paint finishes, peeling picture frames and a good old fashioned bar. You practically have to walk through the bar to get at the stairs, which lead up to a quirky function room with a penchant for Titanic memorabilia. Several groups use the room for monthly meetups, including the rather wonderful South East London Folklore Society. The beer choice is limited, but always well kept.
