'When two tribes go to war, a point is all that you can score' sang Frankie goes to Hollywood in their 1984 hit 'Two tribes'. And I think they're onto something there. Anyone who has been in a long term relationship knows that sometimes war (in the form of a big brooding argument) comes to town. If you think you're in the wrong it's usually best to apologise and placate but when you think you're right then it's time to draw up the battle lines.
Once the battleground is been mapped out there's nothing left to do but scrap it out until eventually an unholy compromise can be reached. This pair are currently in the stage where they are shouting the same accusations at each other but we can see this whole thing may, hopefully, just end up being a skirmish as their affection for each other is still clearly visible. Although the heart is black. Which could possibly be a bad thing. Only time will tell...
Cheers

As a challenge to myself and to grow my editing skills I'm going to see how many shots I can get out of this shot. I'll link back to this original each time.
On the other side it reads "7th June 1942 whilst research radar technology vital to the war effort"

Unveiled at Welsh Bicknor, June 10th 2019, "memorial to eleven unsung war heroes, including the inventor of stereo recording, Alan Dower Blumlein, who lost their lives testing airborne radar in 1942. Blumlein, with 128 patents to his name at only 39 years of age, was a tragic loss to his young family and to Britain."
...
"The eleven men, commemorated on the memorial, included scientists from EMI and the Telecommunications Research Establishment, and their RAF pilots and flight engineers. The tragedy took place during the final flight to demonstrate the success of the revolutionary magnetron powered H2S radar..."
Just a handy small spirit level I keep in a draw in the study. Because the word "Level" is spelt the same in reverse it's a PALINDROME!!. If you look very closely the bubble is right in the middle, so it really is level.

Another effort blobbed by cloud after 10 minutes of full bling. This time it was 66066 on Monday's Carlisle Yard - Tees Yard gypsum empties. Sometimes it ain't worth getting out of bed.
As an aside the Tuesday - Friday S&C variant of this working now benefits from a Tug for the duration of the RHTT season.

Small mirror and cabinet I built from wood salvaged from a tree that blew down in a windstorm. The Russian Olive tree was on a public golf course in Ririe, Idaho. Palindrome is mirror rim.
Métrica simétrica
Pedro Ruiz Lozano
Producto de la lectura inversa de la obra de poetas clásicos, que van desde El Arcipreste de Hita, hasta Machado, García Lorca, Neruda, Rosalía de Castro o Miguel Hernández, entre otros muchos. El encuentro con versos de estos autores, susceptibles de soportar la simetría, lleva a Pere Ruiz a la composición de unos poemas palindrómicos, bajo el mismo tema que los originales. Podemos decir que en general se trata de la versión palindrómica de estos poemas.
La segunda parte del Métrica simétrica no es más que la composición de unos poemas en los que el palíndromo, lejos de exhibirse, intenta pasar desapercibido. El autor confiesa que muchos de estos versos se gestaron con la intención de presentarlos a algún concurso de poesía al uso. El palindromista se ata las manos a la simetría y sin decir que compite en esa condición restrictiva, concursa en el mismo campo que otros autores y otros versos que no son palindrómicos. Objetivo cumplido desde el momento en que uno de estos poemas consigue una mención especial en un certamen poético de ámbito internacional. Si el jurado supo o no la característica especial de un poema que se puede leer de arriba hacia abajo y viceversa, no lo sabemos, pero ahí está.

Never Odd Or Even is a palindromic phrase which reads the same way in both directions. It practically spelled itself out for me magically, letter by letter, in a moment of inspiration, but I thought that surely someone must have already thought of it. When I looked it up in a list of palindromes, I found that they had. Still, I don’t think its origination is the important thing. Rather its application as a two-way message in a two-way passage is what impresses me, especially as it relates to the message of odd and even. The same letters group and regroup themselves into words of odd or even numbers of letters, depending on one’s direction of travel. The work suggests that meaning and interpretation are relative and are a function of one’s position and orientation in the world. Things are never all one thing or all the other all the time, but unstable and conditional constructs that are subject to change. In this regard the message and the passage smoothly work together to reinforce each other.
The passageway presents a unique architectural opportunity as the setting for a moving viewing and reading experience, rather than as a static one in which the viewer normally stops before an artwork to contemplate it. Here the walls function like a giant page and the viewers’ bodies function like eyes scanning a page as they proceed through the tunnel. The way we read, from left to right, requires that as the viewer enters the tunnel from the garage, the wall on the left will carry the message forward, the letters counted off and paced one by one, in rhythm with their steps. Whereas the opposite wall of text will read forward as one leaves the museum. Conversely, the respective opposite walls read backwards, while containing the exact same sequence of letters, only spaced differently.
I rejected a system of two alternating negative and positive colors, representing odd and even, in favor of a system of three alternating colors which underscores the anti-odd and -even message of “never odd or even,” and in which each letter is “assigned” a color and a color field which it maintains throughout the palindromic event. This more complex and fluid arrangement seemed to be consistent with the message that the possibilities for enumeration and identification range beyond conventional numerical and philosophical systems.

Navan –a palindrome.
The Hundred of Gilbert was declared in 1851 and John Hallett and Joseph Stirling bought several sections of land here in 1853 and named the locality after Navan in County Meath Ireland. This was excellent land in the Gilbert River Valley with the river flowing through their sections. They tried to establish a private town with 126 blocks. It grew slowly with a Post Office, a blacksmith, bootmaker, a Catholic school with 47 pupils and a Catholic church. The church was probably built in the late 1850s and a school existed in Navan by 1858 with 39 pupils. A general store opened in 1861 but it did not fare well and was up for sale in 1862. It reopened as Gluyas’ general store and was still operating with that owner who had the Post Office as well until he retired in 1875. He was still trying to sell it two years later. By then Navan was declining as the big town of Riverton with 5 stores overshadowed Navan. The arrival of the railway in Riverton in 1869 was probably instrumental in the demise of Navan which never got a siding although the railway was close to the town site. The cemetery was started in the mid-1850s with the earliest grave dated 1858. The Catholic Church was not well built and started to collapse in 1872 but was still in use until it was demolished in 1876, never to replaced. Although the Sisters of St Joseph used to walk to the Navan Catholic School from Tarlee beginning in 1864, the opening of the Catholic school reduced enrolments in the Navan licensed private school. The Navan Catholic School closed in 1871. Navan became a government school in 1878 and was closed in 1887 when a new school was built at Giles Corner known as the Merrindie School. The tiny town declined further and evidence of this is the selling of 77 town lots in 1874. They presumably went to local farmers to enlarge their paddocks. Nothing remains of Navan today. The charming mortuary chapel in the cemetery was built from the 18th March 1900 when the foundation stone was laid and blessed. It was built in memory of John O’Brien who is buried there as he had contributed £100 towards its construction. It was to be used for Masses on the first Sunday of the month and for services for some funerals. The Catholic Bishop sent an assistant to bless the foundation stone. There is a good sprinkling of Irish names in Navan cemetery as the district was named after Navan in Ireland. Names include: Brennan, Buckley, Burrows, Callery, Connell, Glynn, Hahasey, Hogan, Keelan, Kenny, McCarthy, McEvoy, McGahan, McInernery, O’Dea, Shannon etc. The roads of Navan township were returned to broad acre properties by the government in 1942.
I was wondering what I could use for Flickr Friday, and then I saw this in the card isle at the store.
Everyone knows what a Palindrome is so it stands to reason
that this shot was taken at Glenelg in South Australia.
