Today was a cold, windy, gray day. Not only that, but I hate the daylight savings time early darkness that descended today. I want to do more stuff that's conceptual and interesting, but not today. I didn't even get out of my pajamas today until like 5pm.
It's easy., at this remove from eighty years later, to believe that the end of the second world war meant that the world enjoyed immediate and stable peace.
Nothing could be further from the truth: there were fears of the war continuing as a struggle between the democracies of the West and the Communist bloc, with nuclear weapons able to annihilate entire cities. Britain prepared by building its own nuclear deterrent, whilst to protect the civilian population it rebuilt the ARP function - now known as Civil Defence, or CD. It also needed people to join the Auxiliary Fire Service and as Police Specials - fully qualified, but on-call, firefighters and Police.
The Civil Defence Corps, the auxiliary Fire Service and the Police needed recruits - thousands of them. Local authorities up and down the country were responsible for full and part-time posts to observe incoming aircraft, or look after areas of each town to rescue survivors and help the Police keep order in a post-apocalypse Britain.
Bolton Corporation used a fairly imaginative way to raise awareness and gain recruits for its CD unit, Fire Service and Police. Withdrawn Leyland bus number 186 was taken into the paint shop where the Corporation Transport's craftsmen gave full head to their creative talents, with this amazing advertising livery. 186 was driven around Bolton to drum up recruits - we don't know how successful it was in Bolton, but we do know that it was always a struggle to get CD recruits as the pay was very low and as time went on, its relevance faded as the Cold War settled into a semi-stable, sullen sense of mutual destruction.
By then 186 had also lost its relevance - after a time promoting Civil Defence, 186 was sent to the scrapyard. You can still see preserved Bolton buses, not least number 77 of 1956 which is now in the Museum of Transport Greater Manchester.

[ Believe what you see in the sky
Believe in the nightmare called living
The night`s turning blue in the sky
It`s growing colder and colder
Believe in the nightmare called love
Believe in the contempt of living
Your hands turning blue in my hair
They`re growing colder and colder
You`re promised so much
It`s growing colder and colder
You`re promised a touch
It`s growing colder and colder... ]

Found an excellent article on shooting ice today in our new library (photos to come:) Check out the latest Popular Photography magazine. I was pleased to see I had done several of the techniques they suggested, although I didn't need a polarizing filter - no clear ice...
It is a cold and rainy night (so much for spring over here in Holland) but I don't care and keep smiling :-)

A rather cold looking Bird House Sculpture catches some reflected sunlight on a cold January morning. This sculpture, by Anne Roberts, stands in the Spadina Quay Wetland, on Queens Quay West at the foot of Spadina Avenue, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Taken during the Spadina Avenue Photo Walk, with the Toronto Photo Walks group, 9 Jan 2010.

I hope this is the last of cold finger that I have until cold weather comes back. I have the disease R-------- cannot spell it now. It is a creepy feeling and happens in the grocery store when I touch frozen food. or are some where outside in the cold. I have a time getting the blood back in it but putting the 1 to 3 fingers in very warm water helps the fastest. Wearing gloves in the winter time is little help. I read that people get this in their fingers, ears, nose and toes. My other fingers were really this pink ,, but they were reacting to my efforts to get blood into my finger.
I was asked by a friend to provide a scale.
This is Esja, 914 metres high at its highest (which I believe to be right there to the left of center), and if my calculations are correct, that's a couple of feet shy of 3000 feet. That yellow thing there in the sea to the right of center is a buoy, which I estimate to be about 15-20 feet high.
It might not be apparent unless you check out the largest version, but there are a number of chicken farms (some of which are fairly large) there on the land above the seacliffs behind and to the left of the buoy.
