Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3CGCJPB - This photograph shows the exterior signage of a Warhammer store in Manchester city centre, featuring the distinctive hammer-and-wing logo and bold black-and-white branding associated with the tabletop gaming franchise. Warhammer is produced and retailed by Games Workshop, a British company founded in the 1970s that has grown into a globally recognised name in fantasy and science fiction gaming.
The Manchester store forms part of Games Workshop's network of dedicated retail outlets across the UK and internationally, selling miniature figures, rulebooks, paints, and accessories for Warhammer games such as Warhammer 40,000 and Age of Sigmar. These shops often double as community spaces, hosting demonstrations, painting sessions, and organised play, helping sustain a strong hobby culture alongside direct retail.
The sign's clean, high-contrast design makes it instantly recognisable to fans of the brand, while its placement on a modern city centre frontage reflects the mainstreaming of gaming and hobby retail within high street environments. Once considered niche, tabletop gaming now sits comfortably alongside fashion, technology, and food outlets in major urban shopping areas.
Taken in daylight, the image works both as a straightforward record of branded retail signage and as an illustration of contemporary pop culture presence on the British high street. It is suitable for editorial use in stories about gaming culture, specialist retail, leisure industries, and the changing mix of city centre shopping in Manchester and other UK cities.

April 2023 - Gambling addicts will die because of delay to reforms, government warned
Affordability checks and slot machine stake limits welcomed but experts call proposals a ?missed opportunity'
The Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) published a 268-page white paper laying out a shake-up of existing regulations, which date from before smartphones put access to 24-hour casino games and sports betting in every pocket.
The content of the proposals, which have already been delayed on at least four occasions, met with broad support from MPs and campaigners but drew criticism for shying away from curbs on advertising.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RECE3M - The Garrard Engineering and Manufacturing Company of Swindon, Wiltshire, was a British company that was famous for producing high-quality gramophone turntables. It was formed by the jewellers Garrard & Co in 1915. The company was sold to Plessey, an electronics conglomerate, in 1960. During the period 1976-1978, Garrard developed demonstrators of the novel video disc technology. Although the team recognised the future potential of this data storage technology, Plessey chose not to invest. After several years in decline, Garrard was sold by Plessey to Gradiente Electronics of Brazil in 1979 and series production was moved to Brazil (Manaus). The remaining Garrard research and development operation in Swindon was reduced to a skeleton operation until completely shut down in 1992. Then, Gradiente licensed the Garrard name to Terence O'Sullivan, who operated as Loricraft Audio, in 1997.
Between 1992 and 1997, the Garrard brand name was licensed to other companies in the US, which imported electronic items built by different, unrelated Far Eastern manufacturers. These included Garrard branded cassette decks, CD players, stereo receivers, portable radio/cassette players, portable Walkman type cassette players, serial-port printer cables, universal TV/audio remote controls, and other miscellany, including turntables that had no connection with any original Garrard design.
In 2018, Cadence Audio SA, who also own the British turntable and tonearm manufacturer SME Limited, took ownership of the Garrard brand and registered trademarks when they purchased Loricraft Audio Ltd. The business was restructured to run under the name of Garrard Turntables UK Ltd.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RBN9EC - This image shows a traditional No Ball Games sign, commonly found on UK council and social housing estates, mounted against a dark brick wall. Such signs have been widely used by local authorities and housing providers to regulate play and reduce noise, damage, or nuisance in shared residential spaces.
The phrase No Ball Games has become a cultural shorthand in Britain, often referenced in discussions about urban childhood, public space, social housing management, and community control. While originally intended as a practical estate-management measure, the signage is now frequently used symbolically in media and policy commentary about youth provision, play spaces, and social behaviour.
The image is well suited to editorial and conceptual use covering social housing, council estates, urban life, local government policy, childhood and play, community rules, and British social history, as well as nostalgic or critical perspectives on post-war housing design and regulation.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RBN9F0 - This image shows two classic official signs mounted on a high brick wall within a UK council housing estate: a yellow warning sign indicating CCTV in operation and a white sign stating No ball games. Together, the signs reflect common approaches used by local authorities and housing providers to manage behaviour, safety, and perceived antisocial activity in shared residential spaces.
CCTV signage has become a familiar feature across social housing estates, parks, and communal areas, intended both as a deterrent and as part of wider community safety and evidence-gathering measures. The accompanying No ball games sign illustrates long-standing estate rules aimed at preventing damage, noise nuisance, and conflict in areas close to homes, particularly where space is limited.
The pairing of surveillance warnings with behavioural restrictions highlights the tension often present in estate design and management between creating safe environments and limiting informal play or social activity. Such signage is frequently cited in debates around children's rights to play, urban design, and the lived experience of residents in public housing.
Photographed in daylight with clear legible text, the image works well as editorial material illustrating UK social housing policy in practice, local authority enforcement, community regulation, and the visual language of control and safety within urban residential environments.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R39XXG - Lewis Floyd Henry has been out on the streets and stages of the world evolving as a one man band and gaining the reputation of being a great live act. Whilst developing his unique approach to performing, musical ideas have flourished in the form of his own compositions and recordings.
A One Man, Multi Genre, Traveling Sonic Medicine Show
Lewis Floyd Henry takes the rarified tradition of the one man band, street corner, blues music of Lone Cat Fuller to an almost burlesque stratospheric level ?a one man, multi genre, sonic medicine show. Lewis devised a foot operated miniature toy drum kit set on it's side for his rhythm section with other pedals including loopers you can imagine the reanimated ghost cadavers of Son House, Jimi Hendrix and several bright orange dwarves dancing like voodoo puppets as he pounds out rhythms like an ancient, corroded 808 against a back drop of 60's psyche inspired grooves.
He sounds like Lone Cat Fuller jamming Captain Beefheart in Margate. What makes it so great is the loose one man band synthesis of Piedmont Country Blues, the occasional vocal flavours of Mick Jagger and the vintage ragtime jazz and skiffle leanings. You can even taste a bit of Hendrix, Son House and a slice of Hank III and Beck just to spice everything up a touch.
8 bit absinthe of authenticity
Look no further if you want to escape the relentless polish of 21st Century plastique overproduction and feed your ears something soaked in the 8 bit absinthe of authenticity ? it will probably kill your speakers, it's raw and gritty-it ain't perfect but that's what makes it so damn good.
One Man versus the World
Fresh from spending years busking the hard streets of London, let iconoclastic bluesman, and genuine, original, one man band Lewis Floyd Henry take you on a rickety old roller coaster ride. If you're looking for something fresh, inventive, and suitably low-fi Lewis is your man.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K0KPT8 - Penny Lane is a road in the south Liverpool suburb of Mossley Hill. The name also applies to the area surrounding its junction with Smithdown Road and Allerton Road, and to the roundabout at Smithdown Place that was the location for a major bus terminus, originally an important tram junction of Liverpool Corporation Tramways. The roundabout was a frequent stopping place for John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison during their years as schoolchildren and students. Bus journeys via Penny Lane and the area itself subsequently became familiar elements in the early years of the Lennon?McCartney songwriting partnership. In 2009, McCartney reflected:
Penny Lane was kind of nostalgic, but it was really [about] a place that John and I knew ... I'd get a bus to his house and I'd have to change at Penny Lane, or the same with him to me, so we often hung out at that terminus, like a roundabout. It was a place that we both knew, and so we both knew the things that turned up in the story.
Lennon's original lyrics for In My Life had included a reference to Penny Lane. Soon after the Beatles recorded In My Life in October 1965, McCartney mentioned to an interviewer that he wanted to write a song about Penny Lane. A year later, he was spurred to write the song once presented with Lennon's Strawberry Fields Forever. McCartney also cited Dylan Thomas's nostalgic poem Fern Hill as an inspiration for Penny Lane. Lennon co-wrote the lyrics with McCartney. He recalled in a 1970 interview: The bank was there, and that was where the trams sheds were and people waiting and the inspector stood there, the fire engines were down there. It was reliving childhood

These pianos provide passerbys a chance to relax and take a break from a hectic pace of life. Seeking out these pianos can be difficult, because the pianos are relatively rare and their locations mostly unknown. This website, pianos.pub, attempts to catalog all locations of all known public pianos to facilitate access to anyone and everyone.
Where did the idea come from?
Public instruments have been available for hundreds of years. The idea of a street piano was popularized in the early part of this millenium. The idea started to take off in 2013 when revolutionized by organizations to promote public pianos in parks and plazas, most notably the Play Me, I'm Your's campaign initiated by British artist Luke Jerram in 2008. Since then, the number of piano sightings has increased steadily every year, often peaking during the summer time.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JJKNF9 - Peaky Blinders is a British period crime drama television series created by Steven Knight. Set in Birmingham, it follows the exploits of the Peaky Blinders crime gang in the direct aftermath of the First World War. The fictional gang is loosely based on a real urban youth gang of the same name who were active in the city from the 1880s to the 1910s
Peaky Blinders is a crime drama centred on a family of mixed Irish Traveller and Romani origins based in Birmingham, England, starting in 1919, several months after the end of the First World War. It centres on the Peaky Blinders street gang and their ambitious, cunning crime boss Tommy Shelby (Murphy). The gang comes to the attention of Major Chester Campbell (Neill), a detective chief inspector in the Royal Irish Constabulary sent over by Winston Churchill from Belfast, where he had been sent to clean up the city of the Irish Republican Army flying columns, the Communist Party of Great Britain, street gangs, and common criminals. Winston Churchill (played by Andy Nyman in series 1 and Richard McCabe in series 2) charges him with suppressing disorder and uprising in Birmingham and recovering a stolen cache of arms meant to be shipped to Libya. The first series concludes on 3 December 1919?Black Star Day, the event where the Peaky Blinders plan to take over Billy Kimber's betting pitches at the Worcester Races.

Having opened for bands like Slade, Razorlight and Reef, and sharing stages with Arrielle, Adam Slack of The Struts, and Kelsey Karter, Eddie and The Wolves have proved their musical mettle time and time again, and their recently released debut album ?War' has quickly become one of the year's most intoxicating releases. Delivering fourteen tracks that shine with grit, determination, and an undeniably heavy sound.
Described by Stargazer Music Magazine as If Fleetwood Mac had a baby with Biffy Clyro, and that baby was obsessed with Stevie Ray Vaughn, the album is a textured amalgamation of vintage and modern sounds, delivering a whirlwind of originality and colour that soothes the soul, frees the mind, and keeps your utterly entranced.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JC615W - Anger over Grappenhall ?eyesore' site empty for 25 years
ANGER is mounting over an ?eyesore' building in Grappenhall which has been empty for around 25 years.
Grappenhall councillors Ryan Bate and Mike Biggin, along with residents, are growing increasingly frustrated at the condition of the Rectory site, on Church Lane.
Cllr Bate has labelled the state of the property as a ?disgrace'.
It is both an eyesore and a danger ? and has been for too long, he said.
About four years ago Warrington Borough Council (WBC), under pressure from Liberal Democrat councillors, had drawn up plans for a compulsory purchase having gone through a long series of enforcement steps.
Then at the eleventh hour the owner died.
Since then, the ownership has been going through a long and protracted probate process, perhaps deliberately so.
From what I hear, the owners had a number of similar historic properties across Cheshire and their working model seemed to be to allow them to fall into a state of disrepair.
I'm not sure what their endgame would be but could speculate.
The two Liberal Democrat councillors have also vowed to continue pressing council chief executive Steven Broomhead over the situation.
Cllr Bate added: Mike and I are in the process of asking for a further update from WBC and are asking Mr Broomhead to intervene to ensure that this is made a priority as it has been an ongoing issue for too long and no suitable solution seems to be within a satisfactory timeframe.
Town Hall chiefs have acknowledged the concerns from residents as they continue to assess the situation.
A WBC spokesman said: The Rectory has been vacant for approximately 25 years.
Its ownership has been a complex issue and we are prioritising a solution as it is unfair on the residents and visitors to this beautiful part of Grappenhall to continue to witness it in its dilapidated state.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K3T328 - The Trust was formed in 2017 by like-minded leaders of local primary and secondary schools in Warrington along with Priestley College.
Our intention was to work collaboratively to improve outcomes for children and young people in the Warrington area and this collective responsibility is one we maintain to this day.
Our mission is to serve, challenge and empower the educational community. We enact our mission by providing highly effective services to our academies, supporting strong leadership, investing in the workforce and inspiring our children and young people.
All of our work is underpinned by a set of core values, they are:
Inclusivity and social justice
Educational excellence
Collaboration and interdependence
Challenge and service
Care and sustainability
Celebrating difference
These values inform everything we do as a trust and all of our services and working practices are designed around these concepts.
TCAT is a unique trust, being the first in the country to include primary and secondary academies together with a sixth form college.
TCAT also includes a Church of England High School, Sir Thomas Boteler, whose faith foundation is assured through representation from the Dioceses of Chester and Liverpool.
As an inclusive MAT with a strong moral purpose we are committed to providing an environment and education where every young person is nurtured, challenged and inspired to achieve the very best for themselves and their communities. Young people are at the heart of everything we do.
There are currently 10 academies within the trust including four primary academies, three with nurseries, five secondary academies and a sixth form college.
We have close to 8,000 children and young people in our care along with around 1,000 staff.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K3T3CM - Its turned out nice again for the former Warrington home of legendary entertainer George Formby.
Hillcrest House, in Walton Road, Stockton Heath, where ukulele playing George once lived with his dad ? also an entertainer ? has been refurbished and has become a small business centre run by Warrington-based Purple Accounts.
The house was the Formby family home from 1917 and it was from there that George launched his show business career. It had a brief existence as a boutique hotel, which opened in 2013, when it was also recognised with a blue plaque.
Now it has been comprehensively and sympathetically refurbished by the owner but is still filled with iconic images of Formby, who was at one time credited with being the highest-paid star in UK show business.
There's even a replica of the No 14 motorbike that Formby rode in his 1939 movie No Limits based on the TT races in the Isle of Man ? where, coincidentally, the first Purple Accounts office opened in 2007.
The new small business centre based at George Formby's House was officially opened by Warrington South MP Andy Carter,
The Purple Accounts small business centre helps small businesses with compliance services such as accounts, tax, book-keeping and payroll
George Formby, OBE (born George Hoy Booth
26 May 1904 ? 6 March 1961) was an English actor, singer-songwriter and comedian who became known to a worldwide audience through his films of the 1930s and 1940s. On stage, screen and record he sang light, comic songs, usually playing the ukulele or banjolele, and became the United Kingdom's highest-paid entertainer.
Born in Wigan, Lancashire, he was the son of George Formby Sr, from whom he later took his stage name. After an early career as a stable boy and jockey, Formby took to the music hall stage after the early death of his father in 1921
The media historian Brian McFarlane writes that on film, Formby portrayed gormless Lancastrian innocents who would win through against some form of villainy, gain

Opening on Market Street in 1872, it moved to its current premises, on a backstreet just off Chapel Walks, in the mid-twentieth century. Publicity material from the 1960s reads: ?In a world of change, we at Sam's Chop House have preserved the best
the quality of food remains constant
the hospitality is just as warm as it was 100 years ago.' But times did change, and after being run as a pub for a while, Sam's closed down in the '90s. It reopened as a second incarnation of a Victorian chop house, with a lovingly recreated interior, in 2001.
Fun fact: Sam's artist-in-residence was Lowry
Head in at any hour and youi?ll see someone in a rumpled suit, waistcoat and trilby propping up the bar. With one difference: the figure has been dead for 43 years. It's artist LS Lowry, Sami?s most famous patron, immortalised in brass. A regular for many years, he often gave staff his drawings.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2A0TWP6 - Penalty notices for parking and motoring offences
Fixed penalty notices were originally introduced for parking and motoring offences, currently continuing in Great Britain under powers provided by the Road Traffic Act 1991 as well as in Northern Ireland
in many areas this style of enforcement has been taken over from police by local authorities. Some other motoring offences (other than parking) can also be dealt with by the issue of FPNs by police, officers of the Vehicle and Operator Services Agency or local authority personnel. A fixed penalty notice issued by local authority parking attendants is backed with powers to obtain payment by civil action and is defined as a penalty charge notice (PCN), distinguishing it from other FPNs which are often backed with a power of criminal prosecution if the penalty is not paid
in the latter case the fixed penalty is sometimes designated as a mitigated penalty to indicate the avoidance of being prosecuted which it provides.
If a charge is paid within 14 days of the 28-day period, the charge is decreased by 50%. Appealing against or contesting this notice, requires going through courts and hearings: if lost, the 50% period pay could be extended.
Penalty Charge Notices (PCN) should not be confused with 'Parking Charge Notices, the latter, being issued by private landowners seeking to impose a charge for parking on private land.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K3XN98 - The Garrard Engineering and Manufacturing Company of Swindon, Wiltshire, was a British company that was famous for producing high-quality gramophone turntables. It was formed by the jewellers Garrard & Co in 1915. The company was sold to Plessey, an electronics conglomerate, in 1960. During the period 1976-1978, Garrard developed demonstrators of the novel video disc technology. Although the team recognised the future potential of this data storage technology, Plessey chose not to invest. After several years in decline, Garrard was sold by Plessey to Gradiente Electronics of Brazil in 1979 and series production was moved to Brazil (Manaus). The remaining Garrard research and development operation in Swindon was reduced to a skeleton operation until completely shut down in 1992. Then, Gradiente licensed the Garrard name to Terence O'Sullivan, who operated as Loricraft Audio, in 1997.
Between 1992 and 1997, the Garrard brand name was licensed to other companies in the US, which imported electronic items built by different, unrelated Far Eastern manufacturers. These included Garrard branded cassette decks, CD players, stereo receivers, portable radio/cassette players, portable Walkman type cassette players, serial-port printer cables, universal TV/audio remote controls, and other miscellany, including turntables that had no connection with any original Garrard design.
In 2018, Cadence Audio SA, who also own the British turntable and tonearm manufacturer SME Limited, took ownership of the Garrard brand and registered trademarks when they purchased Loricraft Audio Ltd. The business was restructured to run under the name of Garrard Turntables UK Ltd.

The world of music in the palm of your hand was Camp Baird's Industries Limited's slogan when releasing the Wondergram in 1959. Small enough to fit into the user's hand, this record-playing device promised to incorporate the quality of a regular gramophone into a battery-operated portable record player that could be taken to the beach or on picnics.
Designed by Sergio Favaro, an Italian national who settled in Shrewsbury, England in 1958 and produced by Hartley Electromotives (later, Camp Baird) the portable record player played all standard-size records at two main speeds. Equipped with a low-consumption 6-volt battery, an amplifier, and weighing only two pounds, the Wondergram worked by placing the record on a small automatic spinning wheel which turned the disc. Though produced in England, the Wondergram found its largest market in North America where it was sold as the Emerson Wondergram.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy PC2FCA - Grappenhall Cricket Club played its first game in 1881 on a ground in Bellhouse Lane. The club moved to its current home of Broad Lane in 1892 with a new clubhouse. There have been several new clubhouses built on the existing site with the most recent developments coming in the late 1980's with significant improvements to the facilities in 2011.
In the early days the club played a number of friendly matches. Grappers then played regular fixtures up to the 2nd World War. In 1939, before war broke out, Grappers were founder members of the North Cheshire League but the league was stopped at the start of the war and was never resumed.
From the 1960's onwards GCC were members of the Manchester Association which was the prelude to the clubs most successful period.
The 70's & 80's ? the golden years
In 1981, after a couple of good seasons following promotion to the top division in the late 70's, the 1st XI won the top flight for the first time. One of Grappenhall's best teams, it included some famous Grappers names such as Duncan Martindale, Rick Houghton, Chris Ashton, Neil Titchard, Jim Green, Nick Sharp and a young Neil Fairbrother, only a few years before he headed off for big things with Lancashire and England.
In 1982, the 1st XI went one better, this time winning the league and cup double with the HC Cup Final being one of a number of appearances the club mate at Old Trafford in the 80's.
The double was repeated in 1987 with another appearance at Old Trafford, this time with the team including another future Lancashire star and future Grappers captain in Steve Titchard. In the same season, the 2nd XI also tasted success by winning the Worthington Cup.
There were a number of other cup successes for the club during this period for the different senior and junior teams, with many a memorable game taking place and the tales still being regaled today.
In 1992, the club were in their last season in Manchester Association before a move to the CCCL

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy PC2FGR - Grappenhall Cricket Club played its first game in 1881 on a ground in Bellhouse Lane. The club moved to its current home of Broad Lane in 1892 with a new clubhouse. There have been several new clubhouses built on the existing site with the most recent developments coming in the late 1980's with significant improvements to the facilities in 2011.
In the early days the club played a number of friendly matches. Grappers then played regular fixtures up to the 2nd World War. In 1939, before war broke out, Grappers were founder members of the North Cheshire League but the league was stopped at the start of the war and was never resumed.
From the 1960's onwards GCC were members of the Manchester Association which was the prelude to the clubs most successful period.
The 70's & 80's ? the golden years
In 1981, after a couple of good seasons following promotion to the top division in the late 70's, the 1st XI won the top flight for the first time. One of Grappenhall's best teams, it included some famous Grappers names such as Duncan Martindale, Rick Houghton, Chris Ashton, Neil Titchard, Jim Green, Nick Sharp and a young Neil Fairbrother, only a few years before he headed off for big things with Lancashire and England.
In 1982, the 1st XI went one better, this time winning the league and cup double with the HC Cup Final being one of a number of appearances the club mate at Old Trafford in the 80's.
The double was repeated in 1987 with another appearance at Old Trafford, this time with the team including another future Lancashire star and future Grappers captain in Steve Titchard. In the same season, the 2nd XI also tasted success by winning the Worthington Cup.
There were a number of other cup successes for the club during this period for the different senior and junior teams, with many a memorable game taking place and the tales still being regaled today.
In 1992, the club were in their last season in Manchester Association before a move to the CCCL

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy F7YMHG - Manchester United Football Club is a professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England, that currently competes in the Premier League, the top flight of English football. Founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, the club changed its name to Manchester United in 1902 and moved to Old Trafford in 1910.
Manchester United have won 20 league titles, the most of any English club, 11 FA Cups, four League Cups and a record 20 FA Community Shields. The club has also won three European Cups, one UEFA Cup Winners' Cup, one UEFA Super Cup, one Intercontinental Cup and one FIFA Club World Cup. In 1998?99, the club became the first in the history of English football to achieve the treble of the Premier League, the FA Cup and the UEFA Champions League.
The 1958 Munich air disaster claimed the lives of eight players. In 1968, under the management of Matt Busby, Manchester United became the first English football club to win the European Cup. Alex Ferguson won 38 trophies, including 13 Premier League titles, 5 FA Cups and 2 UEFA Champions Leagues, between 1986 and 2013, when he announced his retirement. Louis van Gaal is the club's current manager after Ferguson's successor David Moyes was sacked after only 10 months in charge.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy EDR5R8 - 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.

Television made their vinyl debut with 'Little Johnny Jewel', a 7-inch single on the independent label Ork Records in 1975. Ork Records was owned by their manager, Terry Ork. The song was split into two parts, one on each side of the single. Richard Lloyd apparently disagreed with the selection of this song, preferring the never-released 'O Mi Amore' for their debut, to the extent that he seriously considered leaving the band.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DJ7B6T - Misty Miller (born May 10, 1994) is a musician from Wimbledon, England. The young songstress has grown enormously since emerging as a sweet-singing ukulele player when her debut album was released in 2011. But having left college and discovered her own path, Misty has now returned with her own band (guitarist Jak Payne, drummer Dan Lyons and bassist Jack Everett) and two EPs released in 2013 - Next to You and Girlfriend. Her third EP, Sweet Nothing was released through Relentless/Sony in March 2015.
Influenced by the local South London music scene in Brixton, she has matured her sound into something she is far more comfortable in. A strong 60s influence is also evident in the raw vocals, edgy guitar licks and varied verse progressions. Citing the likes of Patti Smith, The Stooges and The Velvet Underground in her ?eclectic' music taste, this girl goes a long way in capturing the essence of an era of music she adores so much. And, with her debut album set for a July 2015 release, she is just getting started.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DJ7B8N - Television is an American rock band, formed in New York City in 1973 and credited as highly influential and seminal.
Television was part of the 1970s New York rock scene, along with musical acts like the Patti Smith Group, The Ramones, Blondie, Richard Hell, and Talking Heads.
Although they recorded in a raw manner similar to their contemporaries, minimalizing the use of studio techniques, sound effects and atypical instruments, Television's music was unique and technically proficient, defined by guitarists Tom Verlaine and Richard Lloyd. The group's debut album, Marquee Moon, is often considered one of the defining releases of the punk era.

Johnny Marr (born John Martin Maher, 31 October 1963) is an English musician, songwriter and singer. He first achieved fame as the guitarist and co-songwriter of the Smiths, who were active from 1982 to 1987. He has since performed with numerous other bands and embarked on a solo career.
Born in Manchester, to Irish parents, Marr formed his first band at the age of 13. He was part of several bands with Andy Rourke before forming the Smiths with Morrissey in 1982. The Smiths attained commercial success and were critically acclaimed, with Marr's jangle pop guitar style becoming a distinctive part of the band's sound, but separated in 1987 due to personal differences between Marr and Morrissey. Since then, Marr has been a member of the Pretenders, The The, Electronic, Modest Mouse, and the Cribs, and he has become a prolific session musician, working with names such as Pet Shop Boys, Talking Heads, Bryan Ferry and Hans Zimmer.
Having released an album titled Boomslang in 2003 under the name Johnny Marr and the Healers, Marr released his first solo album, The Messenger, in 2013. His second solo album, Playland, was released in 2014, followed by a third, Call the Comet, in 2018. Marr's autobiography, Set the Boy Free, was published in 2016

An Other Nationalities representative winger, Bevan scored a world record 796 tries, mainly for the Warrington RLFC. In 2008, the centenary year of rugby league in Australia, he was named on the wing of Australia's Team of the Century (1908-2007). Bevan was the only player chosen in the team who had never represented Australia in a test match.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DDJNGD - Bernard John Bernie Marsden (born 7 May 1951) is an English rock guitarist. Having played with Glenn Cornick's Wild Turkey in 1974, he then played with Babe Ruth, from 1975?76, before becoming an original member of Paice Ashton Lord in 1977 and then joining the hard rock band, Whitesnake, after having the possibility of playing with his boy-time hero Paul McCartney and Wings because while waiting, David Coverdale asked him to form Whitesnake.
In more recent years, Marsden has toured with his bands Company of Snakes, M3 (both formed with fellow former Whitesnake members Micky Moody and Neil Murray), and performed with Elkie Brooks. Over the years he has taken part in a number of sessions and has released a handful of solo albums (And About Time, Too!, Look at Me Now, Green & Blues, Stacks). He has also collaborated with Micky Moody on a number of Marsden-Moody live and studio projects.
On the Sweden Rock Festival on 10 June 2011 Bernie Marsden played with Whitesnake for the first time since 1981, thus becoming the second of only two former Whitesnake band members who have played with Whitesnake in recent years, the other person being Adrian Vandenberg, who also played with them on the Sweden Rock Festival. In the last ten years, Marsden has been involved in very different projects. The most unusual being two engagements at the National Theatre in London for Nickolas Hytner's productions of Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale and Henry the V in collaboration with Simon Webb. Also, he appeared in ZDF television in Germany for their production of Frankie, a six-part TV special.
After this, Marsden has worked alongside Robert Plant, Paul Weller, Ian Paice and Jon Lord for a charity concert in London. Bernie also played Guitar with Ringo Starr and his son Zak Starkey in Monte Carlo. Most recently, he has been playing and writing for guitar virtuoso Joe Bonamassa.

The Sun, is the 19th Tarot card. The Sun is a card that indicates the universe is conspiring in your favor. Consider this as more than a simple victory
this is a mastery of much of what is before you. Perhaps you are starting over. This is a card that indicates that your good choices are adding up to create a great life.
Dominating the illustration is the sun itself. The face on the sun is an illustration of your higher mind. This is the concept of blending a built-in knowledge of your purpose in life with your intuition on how to maximize this purpose. The serene face of the sun in this card reflects the peace you are at when you know yourself. Or so gipsy Rose says......

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 7478907948 - 'A shot from an excellent night at Warringtons Parr Hall (I am glad to say my local venue is upping its game) with Robert Cray and his band. I must say I had pretty much the worst seat in the place and only by blagging an empty seat in the row behind, managed to get a decent view.
The brilliant set played on the night which is apparently not aranged in advance with the band included: I shiver, Worry, The Things You Do To Me, Bad Influence, Dont You Even Care, It Doesn't Show, On The Road Down, I'll always Remember You, Phone Booth, Poor Johnny, I Can't Fail, Smoking Gun, Chicken In The Kitchen and Still A Man.
The Robert Cray UK June Tour takes in The London BluesFest 2012 at the O2 Shepherds Bush Empire, The Glasgow O2 ABC, Birmingham Town Hall, The Holmfirth Picturedrome, Reading Sub89 and The Brighton Concorde2 (July 2012).
Robert Cray (born August 1, 1953, Columbus, Georgia, United States) is an American blues guitarist and singer. A five-time Grammy Award winner, he has led his own band, as well as an acclaimed solo career.
Cray was signed to Mercury Records in 1982. His third album release, Strong Persuader, produced by Dennis Walker, received a Grammy Award, while the crossover single 'Smokin' Gun' gave him wider appeal and name recognition.
By now, Cray was an opening act for such major stars as Eric Clapton (who remains a friend to this day), and sold out larger venues as a solo artist. Cray has generally played Fender guitars (Telecasters and Stratocasters) and there are two signature Robert Cray Stratocasters models available from Fender. The Robert Cray Custom Shop Stratocaster is made in the United States in the Fender custom shop and is identical to the guitars that Cray currently plays, while the Robert Cray Standard Stratocaster is a less-expensive model made in Fender's Ensenada, Mexico plant.
Cray had the opportunity to play alongside John Lee Hooker on his album Boom Boom, playing the guitar solo in the song 'Same Old Blues Again'. He is also featured on the Hooker album, The Healer
he plays a guitar solo on the song 'Baby Lee'. The entire Robert Cray Band backs Hooker on the title track of Hooker's 1992 album 'Mr. Lucky', where Cray plays lead guitar, sings, and banters with Hooker throughout the song.
Cray was invited to play at the 'Guitar Legends' concerts in Seville, Spain at the 1992 Expo, where he played a signature track, 'Phone Booth'. Albert Collins was also on the bill on this blues night of the 'Legends' gigs.
Cray continues to record and tour. He appeared at the Crossroads Guitar Festival, and supported Eric Clapton on his 2006-2007 world tour. In Fargo, North Dakota, he joined Clapton on backup guitar for the Cream song 'Crossroads'. In 2011, Cray was inducted to the Blues Hall of Fame

The Scandalli Brothers was born in Camerano in 1916 , when Silvio Scandalli ( 1889 -1977) with his brothers Henry and Albino, began making accordions in a small home workshop, and then sell them in nearby Loreto , place of pilgrimage for many believers. It was in 1923 one of the first sales contracts with which the Scandalli brothers undertook to build 25 barrel organs per year for the Belgian Giuseppe Fieres of Mont-Saint-Amand-lez-Gan . In 1930 the Scandalli Brothersit had grown to open a new factory which had a hundred workers and a production of 10 accordions daily [1] .
Photo of a Scandalli from the first half of the 1900s preserved in the International Accordion Museum of Camerano
In those years when the mechanics of the instrument was in continuous development and renewal, the company's research activity was very important, testified by the numerous projects presented at the Patent Office in Milan : the first, from 1924 , bore the title of Improvement in mechanical key devices to combine several voices in accord in bellows accordions , while in 1932 a system was invented that allowed to dismantle the part of the mechanical control organs of both the bass and the chords [1] . In the following years, then, Silvio Scandalli decided to include a small research and patent department in the company.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 5151969435 - 'Solitary are a Lancashire based rock/metal band. They are Richard Sherrington (original member) on vox &
guitars, Roy Miller on drums, Andy Mellor on lead guitar and Mike Park on Bass. They are caught here at the Winnington Halloween gig in some more than usual fancy dress.
Solitary formed in Preston 1994 and signed to UK label Holier Than Thou Records in 1997, they made their first appearance on the HTT compilation \u201cGenetically Fresh\u201d which attracted interest from the JMG Agency who lined up support slots with Kill 2 This, Reign and Deranged from Sweden. May the following year Solitary record \u201cNothing Changes\u201d Solitary then embarked on two UK tours to promote the album, which was released in November 1998.
In 2008 a new album \u201cRequiem\u201d, over a four-year period fraught with personal highs and lows the band created a 'Thrash Metal Monster', which was hailed as a must for the fans of Testament, God Forbid, Slayer or The Haunted. Influenced by the aforementioned bands and the 80\u2019s Bay Area bands.
\u201cRequiem\u201d contains a guest vocal appearance from Chris Astley of 80\u2019s Thrashers Xentrix on the track \u201cHatred\u201d the CD also has cover of Testament\u2019s \u201cInto the Pit\u201d. When writing the album Solitary used inspirational albums such as \u201cSlaughter of the Soul\u201d, \u201c The Gathering\u201d, \u201c A New Darkness Upon Us\u201d and \u201cGone Forever\u201d as reference points to help them create the same feeling as those albums generated when they first heard them whether or not they\u2019ve done that remains to be seen.
The artwork created by bassist Michael Park uses the original cover of a book published in 1736. The band are also shooting a video for \u201cKeep Your Enemies Closer\u201d in early September as well as having tracks on the CD cover mounts on Metal Hammer and Terrorizer in the UK.
If you have chance, catch a gig. See whats coming up at www.solitary.org.uk

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 5083885711 - 'Ace Of Spades - 'Mot\u00f6rhead' - Play this track here.
\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.

Stalwarts may remember Daz from his early seminal hard/grind-core band Fall-out. Daz and the new line up have gone from strength to strength and while his hair has become less, the quality material (and the tat2's) have become more.
The band were on top form tonight. The set included 23:1, (the) Nameless, Carpe Diem, The Flood, Mothers Milk (a love song? LOL?), To Your Knees, Lilly and Eradicated. Castro finished off the set and it was good to see that the 'Winnington wall of death' is not dead.
The line up was Daz on Vox, Hayden &
Davey on Guitars, Danni on Bass and Ed on percussion.
Keep it up Daz, Cheshire music needs you lads :-)
There are song samples and all kinds on their MySpace page at www.myspace.com/thisisturinuk including some demo trax to check out. Upcoming gigs take them to Birmingham, Colwyn Bay, wakefield, Manchester and Bridgend. So no excuse not to catch them if death metal (with 'with 50% added extra Tech with libberal smatterings of ambient and a sprinkling of pure unconcentrated blackened epic death...

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4662183553 - 'Often the premise of the back of working mens clubs in Britain (and many other countries), Bowls is a game in which the goal is to roll slightly asymmetric balls, called bowls, so that they stop close to a smaller\u2014normally white\u2014bowl called the 'jack' or 'kitty'. It is related to french boules and goes back to the 13th century. These days in pubs across the land, ex-sunday league pub footballers, quite often go out to grass on the crown green.
Bowls, can be either flat- or crown-green, is usually played outdoors, tradionally on grass and synthetic surfaces. To escape british winter, flat-green bowls can also be played indoors on synthetic surfaces. When national and international matches are televised, this is usually the surface used. Around \u00a3100,000 in prizes are available in annual competition and has been watched by up to 3 million viewers on the BBC.
The world's oldest surviving bowling green is said to be the Southampton Old Bowling Green, which was first used in 1299. The worlds longest surviving bowler may be much older, maybe the sport keeps them young (!).
Bowling has a colourful history and was banned in the time of Richard II, when it was thought it may deminsh archery, important for battle. By a further act of 1541 - which was not repealed until 1845 - artificers, labourers, apprentices, servants and the like were forbidden to play bowls at any time except Christmas, and then only in their master's house and presence. It was further enjoined that any one playing bowls outside his own garden or orchard was liable to a penalty of 6s. 8d., while those possessed of lands of the yearly value of \u00a3100 might obtain licences to play on their own private greens.
Many British pubs today are named 'The Bowling Green' and indeed, have a well manicured one to the rear.
In 1864 William Wallace Mitchell (1803-1884), a Glasgow Cotton Merchant, published his 'Manual of Bowls Playing' following his work as the secretary formed in 1849 by Scottish bowling clubs which became the basis of the rules of the modern game. Young Mitchell was only 11 when he played on Kilmarnock Bowling green, the oldest club in Scotland, instituted in 1740.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4695553569 - 'The Queen in a deck of french playing cards are often assigned names. These have origins in the bible or from history. The queen of diamonds is Rachel, spades Athena, Hearts Judith and clubs cryptically Argine, which is an anagram of Regina, Latin for 'queen'.
The headress of the english queen playing card resembles a Tudor design. Possibly Elizabeth of York, queen consort of Henry VII of England as is often mentioned in tales and legend is depicted.
Playing cards were found in China as early as the 9th century during the Tang Dynasty (618\u2013907), when relatives of a princess played a 'leaf game'. Its thought that playing cards first entered Europe in the late 14th century, probably from Mamluk Egypt, with suits very similar to the tarot suits of Swords, Staves, Cups and Coins (also known as disks, and pentacles) and those still used in traditional Italian, Spanish and Portuguese decks.
The earliest cards were made by hand, like those designed for Charles VI
this was expensive. Printed woodcut decks appeared in the 15th century. The 78-card Tarot deck, and subsets of it, were used for a variety of European trick-taking games. Allegorical meanings for each card existed as of the earliest days of the deck, but it wasn't until the late 1700s's that the works of Antoine Court de Gebelin made decks based on the Tarot de Marseille popular for divinatory purposes.
A number of people I know swear by tarot readings, others regard them supersticious mumbo jumbo. maybe more a female thing I guess. If you want to share an experience or prediction you have had as a result of a reading (true or false), please leave a comment!

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4550103659 - 'Outwardly Kalahan look like two blokes with a synth, laptop PC and a spare guitar around the back if they might need it. Once they kick off however, the B-Movie voiceover clips and canned processed beats start and you realise 20 seconds in that you are in for a rare treat. Looking unassuming they lull you into a false sense of security as they echo Pendulum, The Quemist and others in a roller coaster of music. They have been at this since 2007 and obviously learned a lot.
Some of the tracks from the setlist at Winnington at the Banned! Network gig was:
Heavens Gate
Rize Of Flyz
Jump
Beyatch
Glxy
Bass Invaders
Re-Chem
Monochrome
Anthem
(with) Aaarrggh (as encore)
They are Clide Yohanas Ventura on Vox and guitar and Bubba O Montoya Vox and keyboards. With names like that maybe they dont actually live in Crewe :-) . The again we might know Clide as Lea Ward back in the real world.
They describe themselves as \u201cMassive Attack meets Ed Wood\u201d and 'what the Beatles would sound like if they lived in Manchester had keyboards and new (sic) the Mighty Boosh'
Word is slowly getting out about this pair, the Crewe Chronicle did a piece on them in march 2010. In it they mention they are front runners to support to the world\u2019s first live dubstep band Jazzsteppa on tour later this year. ( www.chesterchronicle.co.uk/entertainment-chester/news-rev... ).
Anyway, keep an eye out for these lads, they blew me away and I am very difficult to please. The more you see the less surprises me, but Kalahan really did. If you see them coming to your neck of the woods, go and see what the fuss is all about.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4566257143 - 'Impaled Existence is a 5-piece progressive, melodic death metal band from North Wales, UK. Forming in 2004, the band has grown and matured into a finely tuned combination of brutality and melody. With songs 'Betraying The Human Condition' and 'A Thousand Armies Strong' the band shows off it's more aggressive and progressive side with devastating riffs, finger-licking bass, pounding double-bass footwork and ear-shattering vocals. Showing their diversity, songs 'The Last Tempest' and 'In Reveries' demonstrate the band's more melodic side.
Influences Range from various metal bands, brutal and melodic, such as: Whitechapel, In Flames, Scar Symmetry, Origin, Textures, Fear Factory and Dream Theatre, just to name a few.
Impaled Existence have played with: Swallow The Sun, Suicide Silence, Annotations of an Autopsy, As Blood Runs Black, Born of Osiris, Abilgail Williams and many more. The band add Decapitated, Kataklysm &
Man Must Die to this list in 2010 with many more exciting prospects.

Here on a bill with Crewes AQUO and Blue Gillespie (of south Wales). A lot of the new stuff was played and it will be a long five weeks until the release of 'Dreams Of Death &
The Death Of Dreams' which must be well worth getting hold of. You used to be able to buy their first EP, 'A Demon For Every Occasion' at gigs, I remember scrounging a copy several years back. The new album was cut in 2009 at Parlour Studios Northampton with acclaimed metal producer Russ Russell (Napalm Death/Evile blah da blah...) at the mixing desk.
In describing the cut they namecheck Hole, Atari Teenage Riotand my old punk faves Killing Joke. These are cute cookies. Follow this link and maybe buy a tee or some other cool merch www.obsessivecompulsiveband.com/shop/
The band are currently on tour taking in Bristol, Newport, Manchester, Bradford, Worcester and Birmingham. Go out of your way to see them, you wont be dissapointed!
There was a crowd of about 130 there and it was a cracking night.

So often drummers are not given the recognition they deserve. Tucked away at the back of the stage. I try to take at least a few shots of drummers in each band I take, not always possible with good results!
Still where would we be without John Densmore of the Doors, the mighty Bonzo John Bonham of Led Zeppilin, Topper Headon of the Clash, Stephen Morris of Joy Division (once told to totaly dismantel his kit by a drug crazed Martin Hannett whil erecording Unknown Pleasures), The Stones Charlie Watts, Roger Taylor of Queen, Keith Moon and Neil Peart of Rush (not often you will catch me heaping praise on Rush, but where its due....). I will now dig out Cornershops excellent CD to play 'slip the drummer one'...

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 5164712933 - 'The Rocker - 'Thin Lizzy' - Play this track here.
\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
A track from the late great Phil Lynott. I heard this live finishing up a set at the Manchester Apollo in 1979 I think, December time.
The band often used to finish up with this track in celebration of a guy called Ted Carroll. He had brought the band to London from Dublin in the early 70's and he ran a Saturday record stall called 'Rock On' on Golborne Road, Off Ladbroke Grove market.
Carroll was involved with early Chiswick label artists and the founders of Stiff records (motto 'If it aint Stiff, it aint worth a f**k). Thus was instrumental in producing and pressing a great many of the 70's vinyls in my loft. He never was involved in a Thin Lizzy release however, Decca and Phongram were the bands labels, with the former involved with the band releasing an album of Deep Purple covers.
Thin Lizzy's leader, Lynott was composer or co-composer of almost all their songs. He was one of the few black men to achieve commercial success in hard rock, and was certainly the first black Irishman to do so. As well as being multiracial, the band drew their members not only from both sides of the Irish border but also from both the Catholic and Protestant communities.
For a great introduction to Thin Lizzy, the live album 'Live and Dangerous' is your only option. There is some disagreement over just how much of the album is actually recorded live. Producer Tony Visconti claimed that the only parts that weren't overdubbed were the drums and the audience. However Brian Robertson has refuted this, saying that he had refused Lynott's request to re-record a guitar solo, and that the only overdubs were backing vocals and some guitar parts by Gorham. He added, 'It's just not true. The only reason we said that it was recorded all over was obviously for tax reasons... so everything that Visconti claims is boll**ks.
Listen for yourself and make your own mind up :-)

The Fender Cyclone was a series of electric guitars made by Fender. Introduced in late 1997, the Cyclone body is similarly styled to the Mustang but with a significantly different specification. The body of the Cyclone is a quarter of an inch thicker than the body of a Mustang and is made of poplar, whereas contemporary Mustang reissues were made of basswood.
The Fender Cyclone was discontinued in 2007.

A freak fire in Ancoats (now home to lots of yuppie flats) in Feb 1996 destroyed the lads studio.

the fabulous Barry Adamson was on bass guitar. I have enjoyed his solo stuff for many years, including his 'Moss Side Story' and his soundtrack for David Lynch's 'Lost Highway'. The compilation 'The Murky World of Barry Adamson' is a good introduction to his music post mid-1980's.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 3356735418 - 'Manchester musician Howard Devoto, ex Buzzcocks, ex Magazine and ex Luxuria (et Noko ). Here shown at the UK reunion tour 2009.
Howard Devoto was born Howard Trafford 15/03/1952 in Scunthorpe. He began his career as the front man for the Manchester punk band Buzzcocks. He left early on to form Magazine, one of the first post-punk bands and who influenced the whole post 1977 scene. After Magazine, he went solo. After Magazine split in 1981 Devoto spent two years putting together a solo album with former Magazine keyboard player Dave Formula (the guy who precipitated the 2009 reunion). Though reception of Jerky Versions of the Dream was mixed, the single 'Rainy Season' was consistently picked as a stand-out track. Later, formed indie band Luxuria with Noko.
For most of the 1990s, Devoto was little involved in music, earning his living by working for a photo agency.
In 2001, Devoto teamed up for the first time in twenty-five years with Buzzcocks Pete Shelley and released the much-anticipated Buzzkunst under the name ShelleyDevoto.
In 2002, Devoto had a small part in the movie 24 Hour Party People, a film about Manchester's Factory Records. In his brief cameo appearance, Devoto appears as a janitor cleaning a men's toilet while actor Martin Hancock (who bears no major resemblance to Devoto) portrays Devoto having a tryst with the wife of promoter/journalist Tony Wilson. The real-life Devoto breaks the fourth wall by addressing the camera and stating in dead pan, 'I definitely don't remember this happening'.
In February 2009 Magazine reformed as shown, with former Luxuria guitarist Noko replacing the deceased John McGeoch on guitar.
On July 9, 2009, Devoto was awarded an honorary doctorate from the University of Bolton for his contribution to music.

Having played with Glenn Cornick's Wild Turkey in 1974, he then played with Babe Ruth, from 1975?76, before becoming an original member of Paice Ashton Lord in 1977 and then joining the hard rock band, Whitesnake, after having the possibility of playing with his boy-time hero Paul McCartney and Wings because while waiting, David Coverdale asked him to form Whitesnake.
In more recent years, Marsden has toured with his bands Company of Snakes, M3 (both formed with fellow former Whitesnake members Micky Moody and Neil Murray), and performed with Elkie Brooks. Over the years he has taken part in a number of sessions and has released a handful of solo albums (And About Time, Too!, Look at Me Now, Green & Blues, Stacks). He has also collaborated with Micky Moody on a number of Marsden-Moody live and studio projects.
On the Sweden Rock Festival on 10 June 2011 Bernie Marsden played with Whitesnake for the first time since 1981, thus becoming the second of only two former Whitesnake band members who have played with Whitesnake in recent years, the other person being Adrian Vandenberg, who also played with them on the Sweden Rock Festival. In the last ten years, Marsden has been involved in very different projects. The most unusual being two engagements at the National Theatre in London for Nickolas Hytner's productions of Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale and Henry the V in collaboration with Simon Webb. Also, he appeared in ZDF television in Germany for their production of Frankie, a six-part TV special.
After this, Marsden has worked alongside Robert Plant, Paul Weller, Ian Paice and Jon Lord for a charity concert in London. Bernie also played Guitar with Ringo Starr and his son Zak Starkey in Monte Carlo. Most recently, he has been playing and writing for guitar virtuoso Joe Bonamassa.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy PC2FN9 - Grappenhall Cricket Club played its first game in 1881 on a ground in Bellhouse Lane. The club moved to its current home of Broad Lane in 1892 with a new clubhouse. There have been several new clubhouses built on the existing site with the most recent developments coming in the late 1980's with significant improvements to the facilities in 2011.
In the early days the club played a number of friendly matches. Grappers then played regular fixtures up to the 2nd World War. In 1939, before war broke out, Grappers were founder members of the North Cheshire League but the league was stopped at the start of the war and was never resumed.
From the 1960's onwards GCC were members of the Manchester Association which was the prelude to the clubs most successful period.
The 70's & 80's ? the golden years
In 1981, after a couple of good seasons following promotion to the top division in the late 70's, the 1st XI won the top flight for the first time. One of Grappenhall's best teams, it included some famous Grappers names such as Duncan Martindale, Rick Houghton, Chris Ashton, Neil Titchard, Jim Green, Nick Sharp and a young Neil Fairbrother, only a few years before he headed off for big things with Lancashire and England.
In 1982, the 1st XI went one better, this time winning the league and cup double with the HC Cup Final being one of a number of appearances the club mate at Old Trafford in the 80's.
The double was repeated in 1987 with another appearance at Old Trafford, this time with the team including another future Lancashire star and future Grappers captain in Steve Titchard. In the same season, the 2nd XI also tasted success by winning the Worthington Cup.
There were a number of other cup successes for the club during this period for the different senior and junior teams, with many a memorable game taking place and the tales still being regaled today.
In 1992, the club were in their last season in Manchester Association before a move to the CCCL

The Flame arrived in Warrington from Halton via Liverpool Road at around 12.30pm. It will travel the length of Sankey Street, past the Golden Gates and Bank Park, where 300 primary school children took part in a mini-Olympics.
It was then carried to Market Gate where the 70-strong Warrington Male Voice Choir performed, and then turn down Buttermarket Street and on to Winwick Street. The Torch then called into Tesco for a 15-minute stop.
The route was announced by Warrington Borough Council and the London Organising Committee for the Olympic Games (LOCOG).
Members of the public are invited to line the streets throughout the town centre or to visit Orford Park to celebrate the achievements of the eight inspirational Torchbearers who will be carrying the Flame in Warrington.
Torchbearers included Great Sankey resident Stephen Deakin MBE. He is the manager of the Royal Liverpool Hospital transplant sports team and an enthusiastic campaigner for organ donation.
Stephen aged 50, said: When I first heard I had been nominated I was absolutely made up but to be chosen to carry the torch. I am really honoured and humbled.
Other torch bearers from Warrington include Emily Woodward age 12, Helen Lea, age 42, Ian Livingston and Jason El-kaleh age 17.
Cllr Terry O'Neill, leader of the council, said: I would encourage everyone to come out and see the Flame as it comes through the town, it's a once in a lifetime opportunity and a chance to get the countdown to London 2012 officially started in Warrington.

The performance combines music, script and liturgy to demonstrate what Christ's suffering and resurrection means for us today. The performance has been put together by cast, crew and musicians who are volunteers from the cathedral's congregations, choirs and young peoples' groups, and the public.'

During the 2003 invasion of Iraq by a United States-led coalition, the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency developed a set of playing cards to help troops identify the most-wanted members of President Saddam Hussein's government, mostly high-ranking members of the Iraqi Regional Branch of the Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party or members of the Revolutionary Command Council

Each card contains the wanted person's address and, if available, the job performed by that individual. The highest-ranking cards, starting with the aces and kings, were used for the people at the top of the most-wanted list. The ace of spades is Saddam Hussein, the aces of clubs and hearts are his sons Qusay and Uday respectively, and the ace of diamonds is Saddam's presidential secretary Abid Hamid Mahmud al-Tikriti.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DJ7B8B - Television is an American rock band, formed in New York City in 1973 and credited as highly influential and seminal.
Television was part of the 1970s New York rock scene, along with musical acts like the Patti Smith Group, The Ramones, Blondie, Richard Hell, and Talking Heads.
Although they recorded in a raw manner similar to their contemporaries, minimalizing the use of studio techniques, sound effects and atypical instruments, Television's music was unique and technically proficient, defined by guitarists Tom Verlaine and Richard Lloyd. The group's debut album, Marquee Moon, is often considered one of the defining releases of the punk era.

During the 2003 invasion of Iraq by a United States-led coalition, the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency developed a set of playing cards to help troops identify the most-wanted members of President Saddam Hussein's government, mostly high-ranking members of the Iraqi Regional Branch of the Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party or members of the Revolutionary Command Council
among them were some of Hussein's family members. The cards were officially named the personality identification playing cards. As of 2021, all but 4 of the 52 most wanted have been either killed or captured, eleven of whom have been released.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HE7M53 - Nestled along a narrow cobbled alleyway in the historic Half Bap area, the Duke offers a traditional Belfast welcome of craic, music and humour in contrast to the modern fashionable establishments currently blowing into the surrounding streets. Hosting regular traditional sessions there is no better place to sample the real taste of our city ? simply step in and drink an Irish whiskey washed down with a pint of creamy stout.
Imagine Belfast with only five streets. Protected by earth ramparts and the city walls, the area where the Dark Horse now stands was convenient to the old iron foundry, the pottery, the whiskey merchants and the brown linen hall. Appreciate the superb d??cor and special atmosphere with beautiful antique mirrors, Belfast furniture and artefacts from some of the city's most famous hotels and buildings from bygone times ? providing a rather rare and unique glimpse of Belfast's historical past. Just call in and you will enjoy a huge warm welcome from a truly Belfast institution with a huge heart.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy PC2FJN - Grappenhall Cricket Club played its first game in 1881 on a ground in Bellhouse Lane. The club moved to its current home of Broad Lane in 1892 with a new clubhouse. There have been several new clubhouses built on the existing site with the most recent developments coming in the late 1980's with significant improvements to the facilities in 2011.
In the early days the club played a number of friendly matches. Grappers then played regular fixtures up to the 2nd World War. In 1939, before war broke out, Grappers were founder members of the North Cheshire League but the league was stopped at the start of the war and was never resumed.
From the 1960's onwards GCC were members of the Manchester Association which was the prelude to the clubs most successful period.
The 70's & 80's ? the golden years
In 1981, after a couple of good seasons following promotion to the top division in the late 70's, the 1st XI won the top flight for the first time. One of Grappenhall's best teams, it included some famous Grappers names such as Duncan Martindale, Rick Houghton, Chris Ashton, Neil Titchard, Jim Green, Nick Sharp and a young Neil Fairbrother, only a few years before he headed off for big things with Lancashire and England.
In 1982, the 1st XI went one better, this time winning the league and cup double with the HC Cup Final being one of a number of appearances the club mate at Old Trafford in the 80's.
The double was repeated in 1987 with another appearance at Old Trafford, this time with the team including another future Lancashire star and future Grappers captain in Steve Titchard. In the same season, the 2nd XI also tasted success by winning the Worthington Cup.
There were a number of other cup successes for the club during this period for the different senior and junior teams, with many a memorable game taking place and the tales still being regaled today.
In 1992, the club were in their last season in Manchester Association before a move to the CCCL

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy EDR5PC - 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.
