This is my second set from bf❤ What happened was that I sent my first set of capsule machines to the bf's house last year or so and asked him to bring them back to my house when he visited 3 weeks ago. Somehow he lost the mini sticker&small capsule of one of the machines and bought me a new set ^_____^ I like how these come in boxes 'cause my first set came in capsules instead. I'll take individual pictures of the machines later :P
A friend was ordering parts from a Polish BrickLink store and asked if there was anything I wanted while he was doing an international order. I noticed they had the a lot of the new (ish) 2x2 turntable pieces going cheap, so when the order arrived, I immediately set to work to build something with a few of them. Thus the Micropolis Capsule Hotel was born. Cheap and cheerful, it's a popular place to stay while visiting the tiny city. Ref: D1710-052

The iconic Nakagin Capsule Tower, in Shimbashi, is still hanging on by the skin of its teeth. Probably not much longer left to see this supreme example of Japanese Metabolism. It's already covered with netting and looks rather dilapidated. In all my years in Tokyo today was the first time I've been up close to it.

APOLOGIES
Apologies to all my contacts for not visiting and commenting. Work and weather are both very trying, first week back at work under a mega heat wave. Every day is over 40C heat, yesterday was 45C and today 46C. While it was pleasant to see my colleagues and be in a swish new office, my body is complaining about the lack of lying down and napping.

You've heard all about Japan's capsule hotels. Well, here's the very first capsule architecture which gave birth to the concept, still fully intact and operational as offices and residential space in Shimbashi. Designed by Kisho Kurokawa, the Nakagin Capsule Tower was built between 1970 and 1972. Each of these little concrete 'boxes' is a fully self-contained unit, equipped with bed, tv/radio console, bathroom, and closet. (See more info on the construction).

Nakagin Capsule Tower, March 2022. Scheduled to be demolished this year. Built in 70’s I think idea was each module unit is supposed to be replaceable. It never worked in real life, tho now in 2022 I think it could? Generic photo - I need to go back with tripod and shoot at night, maybe with Holga Panoramic.

The former Church of England school in Ironbridge (constructed 1859), which has lain empty for a number of years and is now in urgent need of much love.
Passing by recently, I chanced upon a gentleman with the keys who has been looking after the property until such time as it is sold, so naturally I had to ask if he could show me round for a nosey and a few photos.
Although there is an enormous amount of clutter, apparently most has already been removed in readiness for the upcoming sale (by auction). Prior to the clear out, access to the rooms was only available via a narrow passage between the mountains of clutter.

I will probably print waterslide decals for the physical build, and airbrush the bucket piece, since it's not available in white.
Seeds of Poppy flower.
A poppy is a flowering plant in the subfamily Papaveroideae of the family Papaveraceae. Poppies are herbaceous plants, often grown for their colorful flowers. One species of poppy, Papaver somniferum, is the source of the crude drug opium which contains powerful medicinal alkaloids such as morphine and has been used since ancient times as an analgesic and narcotic medicinal and recreational drug. It also produces edible seeds.
Poppies are herbaceous annual, biennial or short-lived perennial plants. Some species are monocarpic, dying after flowering. Poppies can be over 4 feet tall with flowers up to six inches across. Flowers of species (not cultivars) have 4 to 6 petals, many stamens forming a conspicuous whorl in the center of the flower and an ovary of from 2 to many fused carpels. The petals are showy, may be of almost any color and some have markings. The petals are crumpled in the bud and as blooming finishes, the petals often lie flat before falling away. In the temperate zones, poppies bloom from spring into early summer.
