Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EJ121P - Two Revolutionary Communist Party street posters are shown pasted to a worn, graffiti-marked wall on Oxford Road in Manchester, one of the city's busiest student and university corridors. The image records contemporary political campaigning, left-wing recruitment and street-level activist messaging in a prominent urban public space. The posters use bold red, black and white graphics, QR codes and provocative slogans including Are you a communist? , Then get organised! , Join the fight for revolution! and Wipe out the Epstein class! to attract attention from passers-by, especially students, young workers and politically engaged pedestrians. One poster features an image of Karl Marx, while the other uses a collage-style portrait and class-war language to frame the appeal. Oxford Road is closely associated with the University of Manchester, Manchester Metropolitan University, the Royal Northern College of Music, hospitals, cultural venues and student accommodation, making it a logical location for political flyposting aimed at a young audience. The Revolutionary Communist Party describes itself as the British section of the Revolutionary Communist International, and its own material uses similar get organised recruitment language aimed at workers and youth. The photograph is useful for editorial themes including student politics, Marxism, socialism, communist campaigning, British radical politics, political recruitment, protest culture, flyposting, youth activism, public propaganda, urban documentary photography and political messaging in the North West of England. The bright daylight and visible hard shadows suggest a clear or partly sunny day, with the rough painted background, torn paper edges and street grime adding texture and context. This is an editorial documentary image of political posters and public wall messaging in Manchester rather than an endorsement of the slogans or organisation shown.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EG4C0E - Shell fuel price sign at Roadchef Chester services on the M56, showing regular unleaded petrol at 182.9p per litre and regular diesel at 197.9p per litre, with Shell Recharge electric vehicle branding below. The image is a strong editorial illustration of high UK petrol and diesel costs following the 2026 oil price shock and the Iran war, as drivers faced much dearer forecourt prices through March and April. The visible contrast between fossil fuel pump prices and EV charging branding makes the photograph useful for stories about motoring costs, energy markets, oil company profits, inflation, consumer pressure, road travel and the difficult transition from petrol and diesel to electric vehicles.
The picture should be used with care rather than as a simple claim that this one forecourt proves national pricing. Motorway services are usually more expensive than local forecourts, and this is a site-specific Shell price board. However, it fits the wider 2026 news context: RAC reporting tracked steep UK pump price rises after the Iran conflict began, while Shell's own first-quarter 2026 results reported adjusted earnings of $6.9 billion and noted unprecedented volatility in commodity prices. The Guardian and other business coverage reported that Shell's first-quarter profits were well ahead of the previous quarter, angering campaigners who described the results as a windfall from soaring energy prices.
The location at Chester services, Junction 14 of the M56, serves traffic between Cheshire, North Wales, Merseyside, Warrington and Greater Manchester. The bright blue sky, Shell logo, large red digital prices, neat forecourt canopy and Shell Recharge panel create a clear, commercially useful image for editorial coverage of expensive fuel, oil price volatility, Iran war impacts, petrol and diesel inflation, cost-of-living pressures, fuel duty debates, energy company profits, motorway pricing, EV transition, public charging and consumer frustration at the pump.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3ECEEJ6 - A petrol station forecourt in Italy displays very high fuel prices per litre, with the price board showing diesel, super and diesel plus beside blue fuel pumps and hoses. The Italian wording aperto and più servito marks the scene as a working service station where motorists face expensive pump prices for everyday driving, commuting, deliveries, holidays and road travel. The image is useful for editorial stories on the cost of living, energy inflation, road transport, motoring costs, petrol station pricing, diesel dependency, tourism by car and the impact of global oil market shocks on local consumers. The visible prices, including diesel at 2.309, super at 1.969 and diesel plus at 2.429, appear significantly above normal recent Italian average pump-price levels, making the photograph especially relevant for articles about price spikes, regional variations and expensive forecourt locations. It can also illustrate wider debate about crude oil volatility linked to Middle East conflict, Iran and Israel tensions, US foreign policy under Donald Trump, Strait of Hormuz risk, oil company profits, fuel duty and the exposure of European motorists to global energy disruption. Care is needed not to overstate a single cause, because pump prices are shaped by crude prices, taxes, refining margins, exchange rates, distribution costs and forecourt pricing policies, but geopolitical risk can push oil markets higher and feed through into consumer fuel costs. As a stock image, the photograph combines clear Italian signage, recognisable fuel pumps and prominent price numerals, making it commercially useful for news, travel, motoring, economics, consumer rights, business, energy security, climate policy and transport features. The bright daylight, open forecourt and unattended pump island give the scene a matter-of-fact documentary quality, capturing the everyday moment when international events and commodity markets are felt directly at the roadside.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E5HAD4 - Editorial photograph of Victory Over Blindness, the bronze public artwork outside the main entrance to Manchester Piccadilly railway station, seen at dusk with the station frontage, blue Manchester Piccadilly sign, glass doors and evening lights behind it. The sculpture by Johanna Domke-Guyot depicts seven blinded First World War soldiers moving in a line, each guided by the man in front, creating a powerful memorial to injured veterans, sight loss, war trauma and rehabilitation after conflict. Its eye-level placement on Piccadilly Approach makes the figures part of the busy station entrance rather than a distant monument on a plinth.
The image is useful for editorial coverage of Manchester public art, railway station landmarks, war memorials, First World War remembrance, disability representation, Blind Veterans UK, military history, veterans' welfare, urban sculpture and civic memory. The dusk lighting, reflective bronze surfaces and illuminated station signage add strong documentary atmosphere, linking the memorial to everyday travel, commuting, arrival and departure in one of Manchester's best-known transport gateways. The artwork was commissioned by Blind Veterans UK and unveiled in 2018 to mark the centenary of the end of the First World War.
This photograph also suits features on accessible public art, remembrance beyond traditional military heroism, the impact of chemical weapons and battlefield injury, and the way city centres carry stories of conflict, survival and mutual support. The location outside Manchester Piccadilly gives clear commercial and editorial value for travel, tourism, architecture, heritage and local history uses. Visible elements including bronze soldiers, walking stick, uniforms, station entrance, glass frontage, no smoking sign, dusk sky and railway branding make the image highly searchable for Manchester, public sculpture, war memorial and railway station themes.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EDKYWT - A peaceful Palestine protest is shown in Nottingham's Old Market Square, with a large Palestinian flag in the foreground, stock-photo/gotonysmith-Placards.html?sortBy=relevant&pseudoid=237DAF28-A4ED-4448-8173-C0E81ABEEC6F Target=_Blank>placards, banners and demonstrators gathered outside the Council House. The wide-angle photograph captures a civic demonstration in the heart of the city, with people assembled in winter clothing, speakers and stewards visible, and the domed Nottingham Council House forming a strong architectural backdrop. The image is commercially useful for stories about pro-Palestinian campaigning, Gaza solidarity, ceasefire calls, human rights protests, anti-war activism, public assembly, civil liberties, policing of demonstrations and the continuing public response in Britain to the Israel-Palestine conflict. The visible banner wording includes calls to condemn genocide, apartheid and state terrorism, giving the image relevance for coverage of protest language, campaign messaging, international law debates and public anger over civilian suffering. It can also illustrate wider themes around freedom of expression, local activism, community relations, grassroots organising, political campaigning, foreign policy, faith and community groups, trade union support, university city protest culture and the use of public squares as democratic spaces. The large flag, small child waving a flag, gathered crowd and civic building combine to show a public demonstration that appears orderly and family-inclusive rather than confrontational. Care should be taken not to state there were no arrests or to make claims about police outcomes unless those details are confirmed by reliable local sources or organisers. As a documentary stock photograph, it records a specific Nottingham protest while also representing a wider pattern of UK demonstrations about Palestine, Gaza and the Middle East, where international events are made visible through marches, placards, speeches and peaceful occupation of civic space.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2T9H2CM - This contemporary British and Irish stock photograph captures Palestinian Gaza flag flies from flagpole, Mile End, Bow, London, England, UK, E3 4QS. The row metadata places the subject at Mile End Rd, Bow, London, England, UK, E3 4QS. The spreadsheet date indicates 24 October 2023, so the picture can also work as a time-specific archive record. Plainly, the image is useful because it shows Mile End, Bow, flagpole, Gaza, Palestinian, flag, Palastine, London, with search-relevant terms including Mile End, Bow, flagpole, Gaza, Palestinian, flag, Palastine, London, Hamas, Islamic, E3, woke, support, England. 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 image should be used with care because flags and political street imagery can carry strong identity, conflict and solidarity meanings. It can still be valuable for accurate editorial reporting on public expression, protest, contested space and international politics seen locally. Because it is grounded in a named location and practical subject matter, it is useful for search-led editorial use, regional storytelling, business-to-business presentations, policy briefings and stock-photo buyers wanting evidence from the real world. 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.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2T3EFRK - Just Stop Oil is a British environmental activist group. Using civil resistance, direct action, vandalism and traffic obstruction, the group aims for the British government to commit to ending new fossil fuel licensing and production. The group was founded in February 2022 and began protesting at English oil terminals in April 2022.
The group has gained both criticism and approval of its methods of activism, which have included vandalism and obstructing traffic.
Just Stop Oil opposes the United Kingdom granting new fossil fuel licensing and production agreements
on its website, it calls for the Government of the United Kingdom to stop all future consents and licensing agreements related to the development, exploration, and production of fossil fuels in the country. The group supports investment in renewable energy, and says that buildings need to have better thermal insulation to avoid wasting energy.
The group describes itself as non-hierarchical, with activists in the group operating in autonomous blocs that share resources but have no formal leadership.
The group favours nonviolent direct action and civil resistance and follows an approach of general social disruption, similar to the methods of climate activist groups Extinction Rebellion and Insulate Britain, although favouring cultural institutions as protest targets

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RWMEN8 - Taken on 15 Sep 2023, this photograph shows RAF - Royal Air Force war memorial stained glass window, in Durham Cathedral, Palace Green, Durham, County Durham, England, UK, DH1 3EH. The location is Palace Green , Durham, England, UK, DH1 3RW. The picture is not just a record shot: it contains architectural or decorative detail with strong colour, lettering and religious, civic or commemorative symbolism. Durham Cathedral was built between 1093 and 1133 and forms part of the Durham Castle and Cathedral UNESCO World Heritage Site, giving even a detail shot strong religious and architectural context. It could support features on pubs, beer, leisure, nightlife, tourism, heritage streets, local economies, independent hospitality and the pressures facing town-centre venues. For image buyers, the value is in the combination of recognisable subject, readable wording, location evidence and a plain documentary style that can be dropped into news, magazine, web, council, housing, transport, heritage or commercial commentary without looking over-produced. Searchable related phrases include Palace Green, Durham Cathedral, cathedral, stained glass, window, windows, city, centre, CofE, Royal Air Force, Durham, DH1, plus wider ideas such as local identity, public realm, urban detail, social history, commercial change, everyday Britain, documentary photography and place-based storytelling. The composition gives designers scope for captions, page furniture, social media crops, report covers and article thumbnails, while the detailed captioning makes it more discoverable for searches using both specific place names and broader themes. This makes the image useful for comparison pieces, then-and-now features, local news, regeneration stories and plain-English explainers aimed at a general audience.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RFJ33E - This image shows the Summer of 69 mural located on a gable wall at Hopewell Crescent in West Belfast, Northern Ireland. The mural depicts two children standing amid rubble and damaged buildings, referencing the widespread civil unrest and destruction that occurred in Belfast during the summer of 1969, a period widely regarded as the beginning of the Troubles.
Rendered in a restrained, illustrative style, the artwork uses muted tones and detailed line work to evoke memory, loss, and the impact of conflict on civilian life, particularly on children and families living in affected neighbourhoods. The surrounding painted scene of demolished housing and debris reflects the disruption to residential communities during that period.
The photograph was taken on a grey, overcast day, with low, diffuse light and heavy cloud cover reinforcing the somber tone of the mural. The weather conditions flatten shadows and enhance the subdued atmosphere, aligning visually with the subject matter.
Political and historical murals such as this remain a prominent feature of Belfast's urban landscape. They function as acts of remembrance, community storytelling, and public history, while also reflecting the ongoing complexity of how the past is interpreted and represented in shared space. The image documents how murals continue to shape identity, memory, and place in post-conflict Northern Ireland.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RGHXAH - Derry's walls were originally built by the Irish Society between 1613 and 1619, under the supervision of the London builder and architect Peter Benson. They were built with the intention of protecting the Scottish and English planters that had moved to Ulster as part of the Plantation of Ulster that had been established by James I. It was a direct consequence of the previous settlement being destroyed by Irish chieftain Cahir O'Doherty during O'Doherty's rebellion. As a result of the building of the city's defences by the Irish Society, which was a consortium of livery companies based out of the City of London, the city was officially renamed Londonderry in the 1613 royal charter. This is what has subsequently led to the naming dispute for the city and county of Derry/Londonderry.
The walls are at the centre of the historic city of Derry and within them are a number of Derry's most important landmarks including the Apprentice Boy's Hall and St. Columb's Cathedral (the first ever purpose-built Protestant Cathedral).
The walls are lined with 22 cannons from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries, other cannons can be found displayed elsewhere in the city. Derry boasts the largest collection of cannons whose precise origins are known, with many of them being used during the Siege of Derry. In 2005, 24 of the cannons (including two displayed at Brook Hall) were restored to their former glory, with the famous 'Roaring Meg' located at the double bastion near Bishop gate
The fact that the city's walls have never been breached gave rise to one of its nicknames
the Maiden City.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2T0DAF1 - Dame Gracie Fields DBE OStJ (born Grace Stansfield
9 January 1898 27 September 1979) was an English actress, singer, comedian and star of cinema and music hall who was one of the top ten film stars in Britain during the 1930s and was considered the highest paid film star in the world in 1937. She was known affectionately as Our Gracie and the Lancashire Lass and for never losing her strong, native Lancashire accent. She was appointed a Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) and an Officer of the Venerable Order of St John (OStJ) in 1938, and a Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire (DBE) in 1979.
Fields was born Grace Stansfield, a daughter of Frederick Stansfield (18741956) and his wife Sarah Jane 'Jenny' Stansfield née Bamford (18791953), over a fish and chip shop owned by her grandmother, Sarah Bamford, in Molesworth Street, Rochdale, Lancashire. Her great-grandfather, William Stansfield (b.1805), of Hebden Bridge, Yorkshire, was a descendant of the Stansfield family of Stansfield, Yorkshire
In 1939, Fields suffered a breakdown and went to Capri to recuperate. World War II was declared while she was recovering in Capri, and Fields still very ill after her cancer surgery threw herself into her work and signed up for the Entertainments National Service Association (ENSA) headed by her old film producer, Basil Dean. Fields travelled to France to entertain the troops in the midst of air-raids, performing on the backs of open lorries and in war-torn areas. During the war, she also paid for all servicemen and women to travel free on public transport within the boundaries of Rochdale
She continued to spend much of her time entertaining troops and otherwise supporting the war effort outside Britain
On 3 October 2009, the final train to run on the Oldham Loop before it closed to be converted to a tramway, a Class 156, was named in her honour. In September 2016, a statue of Fields was unveiled outside Rochdale Town Hall

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R4WDTB - HMS Belfast is a Town-class light cruiser that was built for the Royal Navy. She is now permanently moored as a museum ship on the River Thames in London and is operated by the Imperial War Museum.
Construction of Belfast, the first ship in the Royal Navy to be named after the capital city of Northern Ireland and one of ten Town-class cruisers, began in December 1936. She was launched on St Patrick's Day 1938. Commissioned in early August 1939 shortly before the outbreak of the Second World War, Belfast was initially part of the British naval blockade against Germany. In November 1939, Belfast struck a German mine and, in spite of fears that she would be scrapped, spent more than two years undergoing extensive repairs. Belfast returned to action in November 1942 with improved firepower, radar equipment, and armour. Belfast saw action escorting Arctic convoys to the Soviet Union during 1943 and in December 1943 played an important role in the Battle of North Cape, assisting in the destruction of the German warship Scharnhorst. In June 1944, Belfast took part in Operation Overlord supporting the Normandy landings. In June 1945, she was redeployed to the Far East to join the British Pacific Fleet, arriving shortly before the end of the Second World War. Belfast saw further combat action in 195052 during the Korean War and underwent an extensive modernisation between 1956 and 1959. A number of further overseas commissions followed before she entered reserve in 1963.
In 1967, efforts were initiated to avert Belfast's expected scrapping and to preserve her as a museum ship. A joint committee of the Imperial War Museum, the National Maritime Museum, and the Ministry of Defence was established and then reported in June 1968 that preservation was practical. In 1971, however, the government decided against preservation, prompting the formation of the private HMS Belfast Trust to campaign for her preservation. The efforts of the Trust were successful

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2PNA0YH - A memorial to the Lincoln engineers that worked together to invent the tank in Lincoln in 1915.
William Foster & Co. was a Lincoln company in the early 20th century and was instrumental in the invention of the tank - a machine that is said to have cut short World War 1 and saved millions of lives.
This memorial to Foster and the others who helped him - including William Tritton - shows the shape of the early tanks and represents tha teamwork across Lincoln to bring the tank into existence. It is suitable located on the roundabout at the beginning of Tritton Road, named after the local engineer himself.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2P6JH2P - James Dunwoody Bulloch (June 25, 1823 January 7, 1901) was the Confederacy's chief foreign agent in Great Britain during the American Civil War. Based in Liverpool, he operated blockade runners and commerce raiders that provided the Confederacy with its only source of hard currency. Bulloch arranged for the purchase by British merchants of Confederate cotton, as well as the dispatch of armaments and other war supplies to the South. He also oversaw the construction and purchase of several ships designed at ruining Northern shipping during the Civil War, including CSS Florida, CSS Alabama, CSS Stonewall, and CSS Shenandoah. Due to him being a Confederate secret agent, Bulloch was not included in the general amnesty that came after the Civil War and therefore decided to stay in Liverpool, becoming the director of the Liverpool Nautical College and the Orphan Boys Asylum.
Bulloch's half-brother Irvine Bulloch was a Confederate naval officer and his half-sister Martha Roosevelt was the mother of U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt and paternal grandmother of First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2M1F5R8 - Liverpool Cenotaph stands on St George's Plateau, to the east of St George's Hall in Liverpool, England. It was erected as a memorial to those who had fallen in the First World War. The dates of the Second World War were subsequently added. The cenotaph consists of a rectangular block of stone on a stone platform, with bronze, low-relief sculptures on the sides depicting marching troops and mourners. It was designed by Lionel Budden, with carving by Herbert Tyson Smith. Initially designated as a Grade II listed building, its status was raised to Grade I in 2013.

It was designed by Lionel Budden, with carving by Herbert Tyson Smith. Initially designated as a Grade II listed building, its status was raised to Grade I in 2013.
The cenotaph was designated as a Grade II listed building on 28 June 1952. On 8 November 2013, the designation was raised to Grade I. The reasons given for the designation include its design context with its impressive location adjacent to St George's Hall. Also noted is the architectural interest of the cenotaph, with its horizontal lines forming a foil to the vertical columns of the hall. Referring to its sculptural interest, the citation states that the sculptural work is exceptional and is arguably Tyson Smith's finest and most powerful work. The design is considered to have contemporary significance in that rather than using allegory and heroic idealisation, it employs powerful and modern realist portrayals. The quality of its craftsmanship is praised, and it is also to have group value in its location near other listed buildings

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2KF7FCB - The Statue of Constantine the Great is a bronze statue depicting the Roman Emperor Constantine I seated on a throne, commissioned by York Civic Trust and designed by the sculptor Philip Jackson. It was unveiled in 1998 and is situated on Minster Yard, outside York Minster. It commemorates the accession of Constantine as Roman Emperor in AD 306 on this site, after the death of his father Constantius Chlorus in York
The statue depicts a seated Constantine wearing military dress. His right arm is outstretched behind him and his left holds the pommel of a sword, the tip of which is shown to be broken. A legend inscribed on the base reads Constantine by this sign conquer. This phrase is a translation of the latin in hoc signo vinces
a reference to a passage from the historian Eusebius of Caesaria, who recounts how Constantine was marching with his army and looked up to the sun and saw a cross of light above it, and with it the Greek words (ἐν) τούτῳ νίκα (In this, conquer)

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2M6GBCM - The Normandy Veterans' Association (NVA) was an association formed in 1981 of ex-servicemen and women who served in the 1944 Normandy invasion.
The association was represented at the 70th anniversary of D-Day in Normandy in June 2014. Due to dwindling numbers the association decided to disband in November 2014. The last official engagement of the association took place at St Margaret's, Westminster (Westminster Abbey) on 16 October 2014.
The National Standard of the NVA was 'laid up' at Westminster Abbey with a plaque that reads:

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K1Y84F - The basic verb phrase carry on means to continue doing something, but here, it specifically means to persevere and is often associated a British stiff upper lip.
According the UK's official History of Government blog, the British Ministry of Information developed a series of three posters in 1939 to rally and reassure its populace as World War II ramped up. The third, and now iconic, poster flashed Keep Calm and Carry On in white, capital letters underneath an image of a crown on a bright, grabbingly red background. Who, exactly, coined the slogan is unclear. The other two posters featured equally comforting slogans: Your Courage, Your Cheerfulness, Your Resolution
Will Bring Us Victory and Freedom is in Peril
Defend it with all Your Might.
The British government printed nearly 2.5 million copies, reserving them to boost morale in case of a particularly bad German bombing. It never did display the posters, and most were recycled in 1940 during a wartime paper shortage.
The Keep Calm and Carry On poster languished in number and obscurity until Stuart Manley discovered a copy in 2000 tucked away in a box of old books for his bookshop, Barter Books, in Alnwick, England. His wife and co-owner, Mary, framed and displayed the poster. Patrons fell in love with it, and the booksellers printed tens of thousands of copies over the decade.
The poster skyrocketed in popularity after the 2008 recession, explained Foreign Affairs Correspondent Jon Henley in 2009 for The Guardian. Social psychologist Alain Samson observed for Henley that [t]he words are also particularly positive, reassuring, in a period of uncertainty, anxiety, even perhaps of cynicism.
Since then, keep calm and carry on exploded as a meme. Everyone from crafters to tweeters have riffed on the slogan. Variations typically follow the template Keep Calm and X: Keep Calm and Drink Tea or Drink Beer, swapping out the crown icon for a teacup or pint glass

Glossop Borough Council had set up a War Memorial Commitee to decide on what memorials should be erected around the Borough. The design that was decided on was a stepped stone base with bronze plaques inscribed with the names of those who lost their lives. On top of the stone base is a winged figure of Victory holding a laurel wreath. She is standing with one foot on the globe and another on the neck of a snake, representing evil. The bronze statue has been attributed to Vernon March, who also made the National War Monument in Ottowa, Ontario, Canada.
Dedication, 26 March 1922
The War Memorials at Glossop and Hadfield are identical. They were both dedicated on the same day, Sunday 26th March 1922. On the day of the dedication miniature evergreens had been planted around the base.
A procession of the Mayor (S. Bamforth), Lord Howard, Lord Doverdale (Edward Partington), the War Memorial Committee and other officials made their way from the Town Hall to Norfolk Square at 2.30pm. Lord Howard had been asked to unveil the War Memorial. He gave a short speech stating:
that he felt much honoured in having been asked to unveil that monument, which all of them had subscribed to, to enable it to be raised in that square.
The Rev. W. M. Martin-Ellis, Vicar of Whitfield, then performed the dedication of the Memorial. Four buglers then played The Last Post . This was followed by the male voice choir singing Sullivan's Homeland and the buglers then played The Reveille . The ceremony ended with the singing of the National Anthem.
Wreaths were then laid by the Mayor, Mr C. Haughton (who had lost three sons in the War) deposited on behalf of ex-servicemen. There were also wreaths from Mrs Partington (the ex-Mayor), the police, Mr Dickinson (headmaster of Glossop Grammar School) and many other organisations.

Mike Mercer has run the Albion Inn for over 37 years and has created and captured the essence of the Great War 1914-18 in this last remaining classic Victorian corner street pub within the City Walls of Chester.
Albion Street, and the adjoining Volunteer Street both lead to the former Drill Hall, which was a recruiting centre during the First World War.
Many a young lad would have spent his King's Shilling in the bar of the Albion before going to face the horrors of the Western Front.
The Albion Inn dates from the late 1880's and Mike and Christina have managed to retain the traditional three room layout covering Vault, Snug and Lounge, containing Great War artefacts and pictures, which give a distinct period feel, together with posters and enamelled advertising signs.
At the same time, The Albion provides high standards of food, drink and accommodation, worthy of its entry in many National and International Guides and Publications.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2M07A98 - Remembering the 7 million women who contributed to the war effort by working in hundreds of vital jobs
This huge, bronze monument memorialises the women of World War II. It was unveiled in 2005 and the gold lettering on it is said to mimic the font of wartime ration books.
Around the outside, you can see 17 different sculpted uniforms and helmets. These uniforms represent hundreds of vital jobs undertaken by over 7 million women during the Second World War. However, when the war ended and the men returned to their jobs, women were forced to quietly hang up their uniforms and resign
they were expected to return to their lives before the war, often in more domestic roles.
Women's contribution to both the First and Second World Wars have often been historically overlooked. Unlike men, most women were not on the front line, and instead worked on the land, they were called up to be mechanics, engineers, munitions workers and air raid wardens. Women drove buses and fire-engines.
However, there were over 640,000 women in the armed forces during World War II including the Women's Royal Naval Service (WRNS). Lilian Bader joined the Women's Auxiliary Air Force (WAAF) and trained to be an Instrument Repairer
in fact, she was one of the first women to qualify in that post. She became a Leading Aircraftwoman at RAF Shawbury and was then promoted to Acting Corporal.
Women like Georgina Masson, pictured below, joined the Auxiliary Territorial Service (ATS) which was the women's branch of the British army. Georgina, who was born in Oxford, travelled to Trinidad where she worked as a stenographer for Ford. However, she returned to Britain in 1943 to assist the war effort, and became the first black woman Officer in the ATS. Georgina can be seen holding a copy of Picture Post magazine which features her on the cover, dressed in her ATS uniform.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JG2209 - A high-octane rock and blues outfit that hit like a hurricane, Eddie and The Wolves have been carving out their own unique path for the last few years, dominating the independent scene with a visceral blend of bold, authentic sounds. After first surfacing in 2018 with the release of their titanic debut single Love in the City', the band have been winning over fans and critics alike, and in March, they're set to embark on their most explosive tour to date.
Described by Where The Music Does The Talking as a band you must-see live , Eddie and The Wolves have built their sound on a caustic mix of flowing riffs, funky guitar solos, and thunderous percussion, crafting modern blues anthems that shine with a twist of dirty rock n' roll brilliance.
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 2JDRMYT - Royal Air Force Burtonwood (or RAF Burtonwood) is a former Royal Air Force and United States Army Air Forces base that was located in Burtonwood, 2 miles (3.2 km) Northwest of Warrington in Cheshire, England. The base was opened in 1940 in response to World War II by the RAF and in 1942 it was transferred to the United States of America for war operations. The base was home to 18,000 American servicemen at the end of the war. In 1946 the base was transferred back to the United Kingdom however United States operations continued. The base officially closed in 1991 and since then the runway and most of the associated buildings have been demolished. RAF Burtonwood Heritage Centre was opened on part of the former base

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AAT31B - Warrington was founded by the Romans at an important crossing place on the River Mersey. A new settlement was established by the Saxons. By the Middle Ages, Warrington had emerged as a market town at the lowest bridging point of the river. A local tradition of textile and tool production dates from this time.
The modern Borough of Warrington was formed in 1974 with the amalgamation of the former County Borough of Warrington, part of the Golborne Urban District, the Lymm Urban District, part of the Runcorn Rural District, the Warrington Rural District and part of the Whiston Rural District.
The River Mersey runs through the heart of the town dividing it in two. There are only two main thoroughfares crossing the Mersey in Warrington: at Warrington Bridge at Bridge Foot and at the Kingsway Bridge. Before the M6 was built, these routes were very busy with through traffic.
The Manchester Ship Canal runs through the south of the town
three swing bridges and a high-level cantilever bridge provide crossing points. Although shipping movements on the ship canal are far less frequent than in years past, they can cause severe delay to local road traffic. The Bridgewater Canal runs through the borough from the village of Lymm to Walton Hall and Gardens, a local park/leisure area. The course of the Sankey Canal runs through the west of the town, although most of it is not suitable for navigation.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy PYX9B0 - The remembrance poppy is an artificial flower that has been used since 1921 to commemorate military personnel who have died in war, and represents a common or field poppy, Papaver rhoeas. Inspired by the World War I poem In Flanders Fields, and promoted by Moina Michael, they were first adopted by the American Legion to commemorate American soldiers killed in that war (19141918). They were then adopted by military veterans' groups in parts of the British Empire.
Today, they are mostly used in the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, to commemorate their servicemen and women killed in all conflicts. There, small artificial poppies are often worn on clothing leading up to Remembrance Day/Armistice Day, and poppy wreaths are often laid at war memorials. In Australia and New Zealand, they are also worn on Anzac Day.
The Royal British Legion's Poppy Appeal has caused some controversy, with someincluding British Army veteransarguing that it has become excessive, is being used to marshal support behind British military campaigns, and that public figures are pressured to wear poppies.
In the United Kingdom, remembrance poppies are sold by The Royal British Legion (RBL). This is a charity providing financial, social, political and emotional support to those who have served or who are currently serving in the British Armed Forces, and their dependants. They are sold on the streets by volunteers in the weeks before Remembrance Day. The remembrance poppy is the trademark of The Royal British Legion. The RBL state, The red poppy is our registered mark and its only lawful use is to raise funds for the Poppy Appeal
its yearly fundraising drive in the weeks before Remembrance Day. The RBL says these poppies are worn to commemorate the sacrifices of our Armed Forces and to show support to those still serving today. Other poppy merchandise is sold throughout the year as part of the ongoing fundraising.

J. & N. Philips and Company was a business established in 1747 by members of the Philips family, and which ceased trading in 1970. Originally based in Tean, Staffordshire, England, the business was a manufacturer of textile products that expanded both by organic growth and by taking over other businesses involved in the manufacture and merchanting of textile products and smallware.
It formed a part of a network of companies operated by the family, whose business interests came to include manufacture of hats and textiles such as linen smallwares, silks and fustians, as well as cotton spinning and dealing, power loom weaving, export merchanting and general warehousing. The family was also involved in politics, with George Philips, Mark Philips and Robert Needham Philips all being Members of Parliament and all promoting the ideals of Manchesterism while in office. George's son, George Richard Philips, was also a member of the House of Commons.

It was intended for feeding to children at a time of milk rationing. It was also convenient for mothers. It freed them up from breast-feeding at a time when women had to go man the factories for the war effort. At first, it was available only to children under 1 year of age
later 2 years.
The National Dried Milk scheme had been announced by the fall of 1940
by then, physicians were debating how it should best be served to infants and whether full-cream was indeed the best for them.
The storage and distribution of National Dried Milk across the country was contracted out to a company called SPD. You needed ration coupons to purchase it with, and could only get it at chemists (i.e. pharmacies.) There was a proviso, though, which housewives learned to watch for: once the tin at the store was past the Not for consumption after... date, it could be sold to anyone, off-ration, providing a windfall bonanza to the lucky shopper.

The Church stands not east-west but square to the Roman Road north through Carlisle (the A6, in town Blackfriars St). It is therefore of early foundation, perhaps before St Cuthbert's visit to Carlisle in 685. The present Church, probably the fourth on the site, dates from 1778.
It has a unique moving pulpit, a fourteenth century window, a window commemorating our hospitality to a Latvian Lutheran congregation, and a very attractive series of windows depicting the life of St Cuthbert. It is open every day during daylight hours. Our motto is: Christian Hospitality

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy EC2T0X - Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red was a work of installation art placed in the moat of the Tower of London, England, between July and November 2014, commemorating the centenary of the outbreak of World War I.
It consisted of 888,246 ceramic red poppies, each intended to represent one British or Colonial serviceman killed in the War. The artist was Paul Cummins, with setting by stage designer Tom Piper. The work's title was taken from the first line of a poem by an unknown World War I soldier.
The installation was visited by the Princes William and Harry and the Duchess of Cambridge on the day of its opening, and by the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh on 16 October. It is estimated that five million people saw the memorial, and the huge visitor demand saw Prime Minister David Cameron and other politicians join calls to try and extend the period for which the installation remained at the Tower so that more visitors would be able to pay their respects.
Tower officials resisted such calls, stating that the transience of the installation was a key part of the artistic concept, and that the poppies would be removed as planned and distributed to their purchasers. On 8 November it was announced that the Wave segment a steel construction with poppies around the Tower entrance would remain in place until the end of the month, and that the Wave and the Weeping Window segments (both made by the Theatre Royal, Plymouth) would be taken on a tour of the UK lasting until 2018, and would then go on permanent display at the Imperial War Museums in London and Manchester.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DRH8BA - St Luke's Church, Liverpool, is a former Anglican parish church, which is now a ruin. It stands on the corner of Berry Street and Leece Street, looking down the length of Bold Street, Liverpool, Merseyside, England.
The church was built between 1811 and 1832, and was designed by John Foster, senior and John Foster, junior, father and son who were successive surveyors for the municipal Corporation of Liverpool. In addition to being a parish church, it was also intended to be used as a venue for ceremonial worship by the Corporation, and as a concert hall. It was badly damaged during the Liverpool Blitz in 1941, and remains as a roofless shell. It now stands as a memorial to those who were lost in the war, and is also a venue for exhibitions and events. The church, and the surrounding walls, gates and railings are protected as Grade II* listed buildings.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DECXB8 - Remembrance Day (also known as Poppy Day or Armistice Day) is a memorial day observed in Commonwealth countries since the end of World War I to remember the members of their armed forces who have died in the line of duty. This day, or alternative dates, are also recognised as special days for war remembrances in many non-Commonwealth countries. Remembrance Day is observed on 11 November to recall the end of hostilities of World War I on that date in 1918. Hostilities formally ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, in accordance with the Armistice, signed by representatives of Germany and the Entente between 5:12 and 5:20 that morning. (At the 11th hour refers to the passing of the 11th hour, or 11:00 am) World War I officially ended with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles on 28 June 1919.
The day was specifically dedicated by King George V on 7 November 1919 as a day of remembrance for members of the armed forces who were killed during World War I. This was possibly done upon the suggestion of Edward George Honey to Wellesley Tudor Pole, who established two ceremonial periods of remembrance based on events in 1917.
The Initial or Very First Armistice Day was held at Buckingham Palace commencing with King George V hosting a Banquet in Honour of The President of the French Republic during the evening hours of November 10 1919. The First Official Armistice Day was subsequently held on the Grounds of Buckingham Palace on the Morning of November 11th 1919. This would set the trend for a day of Remembrance for decades to come.
The red remembrance poppy has become a familiar emblem of Remembrance Day due to the poem In Flanders Fields. These poppies bloomed across some of the worst battlefields of Flanders in World War I, their brilliant red colour an appropriate symbol for the blood spilled in the war.

A normal human spine has 33 vertebrae when the bones that form the coccyx are counted individually. Its the atomic number of arsenic.
The divine name Elohim appears 33 times in the story of creation in the opening chapters of Genesis. Jesus's age when he was crucified in 33 A.D.
33 is not only a numerical representation of \u201cthe Star of David,\u201d but also the numerical equivalent of AMEN: 1+13+5+14=33. Its also the highest degree in the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry.
33 and a third was the speed of an vinyl microgroove LP vinyl record. I have a loft full of those.
At the time the LP was introduced, nearly all phonograph records for home use were made of an abrasive (and therefore noisy) shellac compound, employed a much larger groove, and played at approximately 78 rpm, limiting the playing time of a 12-inch record to less than five minutes per side. The new product was a 12 or 10-inch fine-grooved disc made of vinyl and played with a smaller-tipped 'microgroove' stylus at a speed of 33\u2153 rpm. Each side of a 12-inch LP could play for more than 20 minutes.
Only the microgroove standard was truly new, as both vinyl and the 33\u2153 rpm speed had been used for special purposes for many years, as well as in one unsuccessful earlier attempt to introduce a long-playing record for home use.
Although the LP was especially suited to classical music because of its extended continuous playing time, it also allowed a collection of ten or more typical 'pop' music recordings to be put on a single disc. Previously, such collections, as well as longer classical music broken up into several parts, had been sold as sets of 78 rpm records in a specially imprinted 'record album' consisting of individual record sleeves bound together in book form. The use of the word 'album' persisted for the one-disc LP equivalent. The average LP has about 1,500 feet (460 m) of groove on each side, or about a third of a mile.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy H2H9HY - This documentary stock photograph shows St Paul's Cathedral London in the evening. The image is centred on St Paul's Cathedral, giving it strong editorial value for stories about London, architecture, tourism, heritage, public realm, night photography and the way the capital presents itself beside the River Thames. The caption and visible treatment indicate low light, dusk or evening atmosphere, so the photograph can be used as a real city scene rather than a generic skyline. The wider context includes Sir Christopher Wren's cathedral, City of London identity, baroque architecture, wartime memory and the ceremonial heart of the capital. These are subjects with broad stock-photo demand because they connect recognisable landmarks with themes of history, culture, faith, finance, theatre, regeneration, transport, walking routes and visitor spending. The image can support articles about City of London working life, South Bank tourism, Bankside leisure, London at dusk, cathedral heritage, riverside views, public spaces, cultural venues, urban planning, commercial property and the continuing pull of landmark architecture in news and travel publishing. For SEO and Alamy search, useful composite phrases include London dusk skyline, St Pauls Cathedral evening view, River Thames panorama, Bankside cultural quarter, Shakespeare Globe Theatre exterior, Millennium Bridge London, City of London landmark and Southwark riverside tourism. If the image is black and white, the monochrome style adds a more timeless, architectural feel
if it is in colour, the low-light sky and urban illumination add atmosphere and practical editorial appeal. Its value lies in combining a recognisable subject with a specific viewpoint and mood, suitable for guidebooks, blogs, newspapers, magazines, education, heritage, planning, religion, theatre, travel and city-break content.

The caption and visible treatment indicate low light, dusk or evening atmosphere, so the photograph can be used as a real city scene rather than a generic skyline. The wider context includes Sir Christopher Wren's cathedral, City of London identity, baroque architecture, wartime memory and the ceremonial heart of the capital. These are subjects with broad stock-photo demand because they connect recognisable landmarks with themes of history, culture, faith, finance, theatre, regeneration, transport, walking routes and visitor spending. The image can support articles about City of London working life, South Bank tourism, Bankside leisure, London at dusk, cathedral heritage, riverside views, public spaces, cultural venues, urban planning, commercial property and the continuing pull of landmark architecture in news and travel publishing. For SEO and Alamy search, useful composite phrases include London dusk skyline, St Pauls Cathedral evening view, River Thames panorama, Bankside cultural quarter, Shakespeare Globe Theatre exterior, Millennium Bridge London, City of London landmark and Southwark riverside tourism. If the image is black and white, the monochrome style adds a more timeless, architectural feel
if it is in colour, the low-light sky and urban illumination add atmosphere and practical editorial appeal. Its value lies in combining a recognisable subject with a specific viewpoint and mood, suitable for guidebooks, blogs, newspapers, magazines, education, heritage, planning, religion, theatre, travel and city-break content.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 8366542237 - 'View a whole set of Fringe 2012 madness from Edinburgh Scotland here. If you do Twitter add me here.
August, always a mad busy crazy time in Edinburgh, during the festival and fringe, which seems to have grown even bigger than the tattoo and festival. There's no shortage of talent and thesps here!.
This piece of four star contemporary, drama theatre is performed by 'Dead Posh Productions'. At a caf\u00e9 on a railway station, housewife Laura Jesson meets doctor Alec Harvey. Although they are both already married, they gradually fall in love with each other. They continue to meet every Thursday on the small caf\u00e9, although they know that their love is impossible.....
Venue 21, The Roman Eagle Lodge, Johnston terrace, Edinburgh 02/08/2012 - 27/08/2012 except the 12th August.
As the blurb said: 'Join us for afternoon tea, as lovestruck commuters find themselves caught between a rock cake and a hard place. Tempted by something steamy? You will be chuffed if you can make it. Noel Coward's classic'.
Review by Michael Wallace:
'Great to see an almost original version of Brief Encounters. Particularly liked the way the passage of time was indicated. Even the small roles were well-portrayed. The pre-war accents were carried off with great success'.
The Edinburgh Festival Fringe (The Fringe) is the world's largest arts festival, with the 2012 event spanning 25 days totalling over 2,695 shows from 47 countries in 279 venues. Established in 1947 as an alternative to the Edinburgh International Festival, it takes place annually in Scotland's capital, in the month of August. The Fringe is a showcase for the performing arts, particularly theatre and comedy (which has seen substantial growth in recent years), although dance and music are also represented. In 2012, 36% of shows were comedy and 28% theatrical productions. Theatrical productions range from the classics of ancient Greece to William Shakespeare, Samuel Beckett and contemporary works. In 2012, 1,418 shows were having their world premi\u00e8re.
The Fringe is an unjuried festival \u2013 with no selection committee, and therefore any type of performance may participate. The Fringe has often showcased experimental works that might not be invited to a more conservative arts festival. In addition to ticketed, programmed events, the Festival has included a street fair, located primarily on the Royal Mile. The Festival is organized by the Festival Fringe Society, which publishes the programme, sells tickets, and offers advice to performers. Their offices are on the Royal Mile.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy F0G6X1 - This documentary stock photograph shows Berlin Mitte,Street art on walls,Germany - Ronald McDonald with gasmask. The image records Berlin Mitte street art and graffiti, making it useful for editorial features on urban art, alternative tourism, wall culture, counterculture, gentrification, visual satire and layered public space. Berlin is a city where ordinary street details often carry heavy layers of history, from Prussian and imperial architecture to the Weimar period, Nazi rule, wartime destruction, division, the DDR, reunification, tourism, gentrification and contemporary creative culture. The caption and visible subject detail provide a specific point of entry into that wider story rather than a generic German city view. Buyers could use the photograph for articles about Berlin travel, Cold War memory, street art, museum interpretation, urban nightlife, river sightseeing, architecture, souvenir culture, public transport, pedestrian design or the way history is repackaged in modern tourism. Search-friendly composite terms include Berlin Mitte street art, DDR surveillance display, Berlin Fernsehturm skyline, River Spree pleasure boat, Ampelmann crossing light, Berliner Dom interior, Berlin urban culture and German capital tourism. If the subject is graffiti, it can illustrate the city as a living wall of political humour, youth culture, commercial branding and layered paste-ups. If it is heritage or church architecture, it can support more formal travel, culture, history and education uses. If it is a boat, toy or street sign, it gives editors an accessible human-scale route into a large city story. The documentary style keeps the image credible for web, magazine, guidebook, education, museum, travel, urban policy, politics, design, consumer and social commentary use. Its strength for Alamy search is the mix of precise caption wording and broader Berlin themes, allowing it to be found for both narrow subject searches and wider editorial.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DD4HA1 - HMS Belfast is a Town-class light cruiser that was built for the Royal Navy. She is now permanently moored as a museum ship on the River Thames in London and is operated by the Imperial War Museum.
Construction of Belfast, the first ship in the Royal Navy to be named after the capital city of Northern Ireland and one of ten Town-class cruisers, began in December 1936. She was launched on St Patrick's Day 1938. Commissioned in early August 1939 shortly before the outbreak of the Second World War, Belfast was initially part of the British naval blockade against Germany. In November 1939, Belfast struck a German mine and spent more than two years undergoing extensive repairs. Belfast returned to action in November 1942 with improved firepower, radar equipment, and armour. Belfast saw action escorting Arctic convoys to the Soviet Union during 1943 and in December 1943 played an important role in the Battle of North Cape, assisting in the destruction of the German warship Scharnhorst. In June 1944, Belfast took part in Operation Overlord supporting the Normandy landings. In June 1945, Belfast was redeployed to the Far East to join the British Pacific Fleet, arriving shortly before the end of the Second World War. Belfast saw further combat action in 195052 during the Korean War and underwent an extensive modernisation between 1956 and 1959. A number of further overseas commissions followed before Belfast entered reserve in 1963.
In 1967, efforts were initiated to avert Belfast's expected scrapping and to preserve her as a museum ship. A joint committee of the Imperial War Museum, the National Maritime Museum, and the Ministry of Defence were established and then reported in June 1968 that preservation was practical. In 1971, the government decided against preservation, prompting the formation of the private HMS Belfast Trust to campaign for her preservation. The efforts of the Trust were successful, and the government transferred the ship to the Trust in July 1971.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 5385298600 - 'I Love A Man In A Uniform - 'Gang Of Four' - Play this track here.
\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
As fresh today as it was nearly 30 years ago. Witty, ironic and close to danceable (surely theres a 12' cut of this???). This single, 'I Love a Man in a Uniform', was banned by the BBC during the Falklands War in 1982. Not alone, 'Six Months in a Leaky Boat' by the New Zealand pop group Split Enz to be a criticism of the war, and the song was also banned by the BBC. The Fixx single Stand or Fall was given little radio play due to its anti-war lyrics,which coincided with the Falklands conflict.
One of the best things to come out of Leeds since the First Trans-Pennine express out to Manchester &
Liverpool, Gang Of Four were most active between 1977 &
1984.
singer Jon King and guitarist Andy Gill were heavily influenced by a university-funded trip to New York, where they saw Television and the Ramones at CBGB's. Apparently, music writer Greil Marcus found his first viewing of the group's performance so shattering that he left after their set, rather than risk having the impact of the deeply political Gang of Four's songs dampened by the pop-punk of Buzzcocks.
I still have the Fast Product first release, 'Damaged Goods' B/W '(Love Like) Anthrax' and 'Armalite Rifle', from June 1978. This led to two Peel radio sessions, which, with their incendiary live performances, propelled the band to international attention and sold-out shows across Europe and North America. They were then signed by EMI records.
GO4 influenced many bands through the years including REM, . Kurt Cobain stated that Nirvana started as 'a Gang of Four ripoff'.
To hear more, track down 'A Brief History of the Twentieth Century' a great compilation. Tell 'em I sent you.
------------------------
The adoption and continuing use of red by most English soldiers after the Restoration (1660) was the result of circumstances rather than policy, including the relative cheapness of red dyes. Red was by no means universal at first, with grey and blue coats also being worn.
There is no known basis for the myth that red coats were favoured because they did not show blood stains. Blood does in fact show on red clothing as a black stain.
Even after the adoption of khaki service dress in 1902, most British infantry and some cavalry regiments continued to wear scarlet tunics on parade and for off-duty 'walking out dress', until the outbreak of the First World War in 1914.

\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.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4863609745 - 'The King Of The Rumbling Spires - 'Marc Bolan &
T-Rex' - Play this track here.
\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
Today a track from a band who were critically examined by few, and are unfortunately remembered for their glam rock and 'Marc' teenpop TV shows period. I hope this track will urge you to look a bit deeper into them or dig out that old black 7 or 12 inch player.
T. Rex were an English rock band fronted by guitarist, singer and songwriter Marc Bolan. Formed as Tyrannosaurus Rex in 1960s London, the folk rock group's debut album 'My People Were Fair and Had Sky in Their Hair... But Now They're Content to Wear Stars on Their Brows' in 1968 reached number 15 in the UK.
In the 1970s, they achieved mainstream success as a glam rock band with the hits 'Get It On', 'Ride a White Swan', '20th Century Boy', 'Children of the Revolution', 'Hot Love', 'Telegram Sam' and 'Metal Guru'. After waning commercial success in the mid-70s, T. Rex ended in 1977 after Bolan was killed at the wheel of his Mini in a car accident.
'King of the Rumbling Spires' in 1970 was the beginning of the transition to a full electric rock/pop band rather than the folky origins of the band. The early 1970's brought a clutch of hits, many covered by Bauhaus and others
Ride a White Swan, Hot Love, Get It On.
EMI even gave Bolan his own record label in the UK\u2014T. Rex Records, the 'T. Rex Wax Co.'. However by 1973 its said that success, money, cocaine, and brandy had become the downfall of the band, with a number of members leaving.
In the summer of 1976 a resurgence started. T. Rex released two more singles, 'I Love to Boogie' (which charted at number 13) and 'Laser Love', which made number 42. In early 1977 Dandy in the Underworld was released to critical acclaim.
Bolan had slimmed down and regained his elfin looks, and the songs too had a stripped-down, streamlined sound. A spring UK tour with punk band The Damned on support garnered positive reviews. As Bolan was enjoying a new surge in popularity, he talked about performing again with old band members, as well as reuniting with legendary producer Tony Visconti.
It was not to be however. Marc Bolan and his girlfriend Gloria Jones spent the evening of 15th September 1977 drinking at the Speakeasy and then dining at Morton's club on Berkeley Square, in Mayfair central London. While driving home early the morning of 16 September, Jones crashed Bolan's purple Mini 1275GT into a tree (now the site of Bolan's Rock Shrine), at Barnes Bridge, Barnes, South West London.
This was less than a mile from his home at 142 Upper Richmond Road West in East Sheen. While Jones was severely injured, Bolan was killed in the crash, two weeks before his 30th birthday. Taken from us, who knows what could have been...

King's College is a constituent college of the University of Cambridge, England. Founded in 1441 by Henry VI, the college's formal name is 'The King's College of Our Lady and St. Nicholas in Cambridge'. It is usually referred to simply as 'King's' within the university.
Originally, the college was to be specifically for boys from Eton College. It was not until 1865 that the first non-Etonian undergraduates arrived to study at King's, and the first fellow to have not attended Eton was elected in 1873. The connection with Eton is now weak, but a scholarship to attend the college, exclusively available to students from Eton, is still awarded each year.
The Gatehouse, was built in the neo-Gothic style and adorned with a clock. The chapel is the most impressive in the city.
Famous Alumni include J.G.Ballard, Stephen Poliakoff, Salman Rushdie, John Maynard Keynes and Alan Turing.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4645364243 - 'This is a page from the book of remembrance inside the Priory chapel at Christchurch, Dorset,UK.
It is the Royal British Legion War Memorial Chapel and seeks to remember those who have died in the First and Second World Wars, but also more recently the Falklands and Bosnia.
This is the entry for Bert Hiscock service number 33287. He held the rank of private and he belonged to the 1st Royal Berkshire Regiment. He is posted missing at Battle of Arras 3rd May 1917.
Throughout the books, soldiers were recorded as killed in action, at battles like the Somme, died of disease attributable to service, many reported missing, Drowned at sea in Battle of Jutland and Died of heatstroke at Aden. Approximately a hundred bound sheets of paper, each a life, frozen in this book of history.
Always a shame that the civilian casualties are not accessible in this way. It has been said though that 'The Truth, is always the first casualty of war'. (Often attributed to Winston Churchill).
If you are in the area, the chapel is well worth a visit.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy CET17D - Imperial War Museum North (sometimes referred to as IWM North) is a museum in the Metropolitan Borough of Trafford in Greater Manchester, England. One of five branches of the Imperial War Museum, it explores the impact of modern conflicts on people and society. It is the first branch of the Imperial War Museum to be located in the north of England.
The museum occupies a site overlooking the Manchester Ship Canal in Trafford Park, an area which during the Second World War was a key industrial centre and consequently heavily bombed during the Manchester Blitz in 1940. The area is now home to the Lowry cultural centre and the MediaCityUK development, which stand opposite the museum at Salford Quays.
The museum building was designed by architect Daniel Libeskind and opened in July 2002, receiving 470,000 visitors in its first year of opening. It was recognised with awards or prize nominations for its architecture, but has also been criticised for poor energy efficiency. The museum features a permanent exhibition of chronological and thematic displays, supported by hourly audiovisual presentations which are projected throughout the gallery space.
The museum also hosts a programme of temporary exhibitions in a separate gallery. Since opening, the museum has operated a successful volunteer programme, which since January 2007 has been run in partnership with Manchester Museum. As part of a national museum, Imperial War Museum North is financed by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport and by self-generated income.

The map shows Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, the Persian Gulf, the Gulf of Oman and surrounding states, placing the words directly over a region central to oil supply, shipping routes, security alliances and decades of geopolitical tension. The image is useful for stories about US-Iran confrontation, Middle East instability, Israel-Iran tensions, sanctions, nuclear negotiations, military escalation, oil-market risk, the Strait of Hormuz, Gulf security and the global economic consequences of conflict. The Scrabble tiles add a deliberately constructed, symbolic quality, suggesting political calculation, dangerous wordplay and the way simple slogans can sit on top of complex regional realities. It can support editorial coverage of conflict scenarios, war rhetoric, diplomacy, energy security, foreign policy decisions, international law, public opinion, election politics and the consequences of presidential decision-making. Care should be taken not to use the image as evidence of any specific military event unless supported by reporting, because it is a conceptual still life rather than a news photograph. As a stock image, it provides a clear visual shorthand for articles needing to connect Trump, Iran and war risk without showing graphic conflict imagery. The map background gives geographical context, while the cream letter tiles and bold black text make the message immediately readable for news, business, politics, energy and opinion features.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R8T9GF - The Daily Sketch was a British national tabloid newspaper, founded in Manchester in 1909 by Sir Edward Hulton, 1st Baronet.
In 1920, Lord Rothermere's Daily Mirror Newspapers bought the Daily Sketch. In 1925 Rothermere, sold it to William and Gomer Berry (later Viscount Camrose and Viscount Kemsley).
It was owned by a subsidiary of the Berrys' Allied Newspapers from 1928 (renamed Kemsley Newspapers in 1937 when Camrose withdrew to concentrate his efforts on The Daily Telegraph). In 1946, it was merged with the Daily Graphic. In 1952, Kemsley decided to sell the paper to Associated Newspapers, the owner of the Daily Mail, who promptly revived the Daily Sketch name in 1953. The paper struggled through the 1950s and 1960s, never managing to compete successfully with the Daily Mirror, and in 1971 it was closed and merged with the Daily Mail.
In 1954, an infamous cartoon titled Family Portrait? was published in the paper which mocked Billy Strachan, a black British civil rights leader, for his anti-colonial and anti-imperialist beliefs. The cartoon depicted him with devil horns representing the Caribbean Labour Congress. He also posed with Hewlett Johnson and Paul Robeson, all of whom stood underneath a portrait of the then recently deceased Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin.
The Sketch was Conservative in its politics and populist in its tone during its existence through all its changes of ownership. In some ways, much of the more populist element of today's Daily Mail was inherited from the Sketch: before the merger, the more serious Mail, previously a broadsheet, also espoused right-wing politics. The Sketch notably launched a moral panic over Daniel Farson's 1960 television documentary Living for Kicks, a portrait of British teenage life at the time, which led to a war of words between the Sketch and the Daily Mirror. It also participated in the press campaign against the screening of the BBC film The War Game

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JH5AME - 2003 Iraqi Most Wanted playing cards laid on a detailed printed map of Iraq, with Baghdad, Karbala, Al Hillah and nearby road and place names visible. The right-hand card shows Saddam Hussein Abd al-Majid al-Tikriti, president of Iraq, as the ace of spades. The left-hand card shows Uday Saddam Husayn, listed as National Assembly Member, Olympic Chairman and Saddam Fedayeen Chief, as the ace of hearts. The image provides a direct visual link between military intelligence, battlefield recognition, the United States-led coalition invasion of Iraq in 2003, and the wider search for senior figures from Saddam Hussein's regime. The cards were part of the now widely recognised Iraq Most Wanted deck, a practical identification aid used by coalition personnel and later a powerful symbol of Operation Iraqi Freedom, regime collapse, occupation, contested intelligence and the political aftermath of the war. Set against the map, the playing cards become more than simple military ephemera: they work as a compact documentary image about war planning, geography, propaganda, leadership targeting, dictatorship, Ba'ath Party power structures, and the way conflict turns names, faces and places into public symbols. The clean studio composition and readable card text make it useful for newspapers, magazines, books, educational material, museum displays and online features exploring the Iraq War, the fall of Saddam Hussein, the role of Uday Hussein, US and British military involvement, postwar instability, Middle East geopolitics, high-value target lists, military collectibles and the long legacy of the 2003 invasion. The warm map colours, road markings and city labels add geographic context, while the two aces give the photograph a strong graphic quality suited to stories about power, pursuit, intelligence, memory and the transformation of recent war into archive history.

Burtonwood airfield was opened on 1 January 1940 as a servicing and storage centre for modifying British aircraft. It was operated by No. 37 Maintenance Unit RAF until June 1942
The facility was transferred to the United States Army Air Forces in June 1942 to become a servicing centre for the United States Eighth, Ninth, Twelfth and Fifteenth Air Forces aircraft. Burtonwood was also known as Base Air Depot 1 (BAD 1)
When the Cold War ended, Burtonwood Army Depot was declared excess to NATO requirements and was closed in June 1994
In the Heritage centre, planes exhibited are the B-17 Flying Fortress, P-47 Thunderbolt and the B-29 Super Fortress. There is also a selection of Pratt & Whitney Wasp series engines

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JTJYMB - Open letter on LTNs, from Leader of the Council, Cllr Russ Bowden
The creation of Low Traffic Neighbourhoods is supported, promoted and actively funded by the current government and they are something that we have given a lot of detailed thought to over recent years.
Since 2018, when we undertook one of the largest listening exercises we've ever done to help form the Central 6 Regeneration Masterplan, we have been considering ways to address a key issue that has been consistently raised to us there is too much traffic, going too quickly, along residential streets
Health benefits of walking and cycling are well-known and widely acknowledged. They include better physical and mental health, lower rates of cancer, heart disease and stroke, and, ultimately, less overall pressure on health services. In some areas of the UK, local NHS Trusts are in fact paying for LTNs to be installed, as they are such a powerful tool for improving public health. Improving health is a major challenge for us in Warrington
Broad consultation on the Central 6 Regeneration Masterplan saw concerns being raised from Westy,Orford & Latchford, including a petition - read more at https://www.warrington.gov.uk/news/low-traffic-neighbourhoods

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JH5AKR - 2003 Iraqi Most Wanted playing cards laid across a printed map of Iraq and the surrounding region. The foreground card shows Saddam Hussein Abd al-Majid al-Tikriti, president of Iraq, as the ace of spades, the most recognisable card in the deck. Nearby cards include Uday Saddam Hussein as the ace of hearts, with other senior figures from the former Iraqi regime partly visible. The image links maps, intelligence, military identification, propaganda, regime change and the aftermath of the United States-led coalition invasion of Iraq in 2003. The deck was produced as a practical recognition aid for coalition troops, using a familiar playing-card format to list high-value targets from Saddam Hussein's government and Ba'ath Party power structure. Photographed as a documentary object on a detailed Middle East map, the cards create a strong visual shorthand for the Iraq War, Operation Iraqi Freedom, military intelligence, manhunt operations, dictatorship, occupation, conflict, wartime communication and modern political history. The composition is useful for editorial features on the 2003 invasion, the search for former Iraqi leaders, the fall of Saddam's regime, US and British military involvement, Middle East geopolitics, the use of symbolic imagery in war, and the way popular culture objects can become records of international conflict. The visible map place names and desert colours add a geographic setting, while the cards' portraits and suits give the photograph a collectible, archive, museum and memorabilia quality. It can also illustrate themes of regime collapse, wanted lists, intelligence briefings, coalition forces, military history collections, the ethics of invasion, contested intelligence, postwar instability, and the long legacy of the Iraq conflict in politics, museums, journalism, education and public memory.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy D8FBDM - Coventry Cathedral, also known as St Michael's Cathedral, is the seat of the Bishop of Coventry and the Diocese of Coventry, in Coventry, West Midlands, England. The current (9th) bishop is the Right Revd Christopher Cocksworth and the current Dean is The Very Revd John Witcombe .
The city has had three cathedrals. The first was St. Mary's, a monastic building, only a few ruins of which remain. The second was St Michael's, a 14th-century Gothic church later designated Cathedral, that remains a ruined shell after its bombing during the Second World War. The third is the new St Michael's Cathedral, built after the destruction of the former and a celebration of 20th-century architecture.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy F7DE1H - Editorial stock photograph of the raised metal Gazprom House sign on a pale stone or rendered building frontage in Kingston upon Thames, London, associated with the Russian state-linked energy giant Gazprom and its former UK trading and retail presence. The close-up view shows large grey three-dimensional letters spelling GAZPROM HOUSE, with dappled sunlight, shadow, a window edge and an urban office exterior giving the image a documentary corporate headquarters feel. The photograph is suitable for news, business, energy, politics and sanctions coverage relating to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, European dependence on Russian gas, the weaponisation of energy supply, gas trading, fossil fuel geopolitics, security of supply, sanctions compliance and the reputational impact on Russian-linked companies in Britain. Gazprom became one of the best-known symbols of Russian energy power, and its brand was closely scrutinised after the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, when the UK, EU and allies expanded sanctions against Russian individuals, banks, energy interests, shipping, trade and financial services. Former UK Gazprom businesses were later rebranded under the SEFE name, while public records show historic Gazprom House addresses at 60 Marina Place, Hampton Wick, Kingston upon Thames, KT1 4BH, and later London offices at 20 Triton Street. The image can illustrate stories about sanctions, divestment, nationalisation, supply-chain risk, procurement due diligence, corporate governance, energy security, gas markets, LNG, European winter supply pressures, oil and gas trading, Russian state influence, public-sector supplier checks and the wider economic fallout from the Ukraine war. The tight composition, stark lettering and absence of people make it a strong concept image for a once-normal commercial presence becoming politically charged, legally sensitive and reputationally toxic after Russia's aggression in Ukraine.
