For two days in January 2020 Amazon Prime worked with TfL to rebrand Piccadilly Circus underground station into Picardilly Circus in connection with the UK launch of a new Sci-fi show called Star Trek Picard, which took place at nearby Leicester Square. The name on near enough every sign in the station was changed to read Picardilly Circus, this included all platform directional signs across the station as well as the platform roundels on both the Piccadilly Line and Bakerloo Line platforms. These pictures show how much the rebranding took over the station.
What cannot be shown here are the station announcements which were also changed to broadcast in the style of the show.

I present here a “Sicilian Festival”, with images and words, which was held this year in what is a “scattered municipality”, since it is composed of the two hamlets of Mongiuffi and Melia, separated by a valley in which a river flows, close to the more famous Taormina; the festival is celebrated on Easter Monday, this year the festival, which began normally, was interrupted shortly after due to the arrival of the sad news of the Holy Father Francis, who passed away, so the festival was postponed and celebrated on Sunday 27 April. Historically, the news that I report here, briefly, are taken from the book written by the historian, researcher of popular traditions and photographer, Giovanni Curcuruto, title of the work "Monfelia" (ETNA printing house, OCTOBER 2006): this festival, initially called "Festa della Pace" (later indicated as "Festa degli Angeli"), was established by the Marquis Francesco Rao Corvaja in 1830, to try to bring harmony between the two villages, Mongiuffi and Melia, which had disagreed in the past years for trivial reasons. The festival was celebrated until 1843, the year in which the two villages argued again (the two communities argued as if they were stadium fans, one sided with the clergy, the other with the nobles), the festival was then suspended, and was only reinstated in 1929; the celebration when it was established required that forty days before Easter Monday, the two communities would gather in the church of San Sebastiano di Melia, to select eight children, four from Mongiuffi in honor of the Madonna, and four from Melia in honor of the Risen Christ, between ten and fifteen years old, on the day of the celebration they would then be dressed in white clothes and “wings”, embellished with ribbons and bows; the children were instructed to recite a text in Sicilian dialect mixed with Latin phrases, written in 1833 by the priest Giovanni Cuzari. On Easter Monday, the various brotherhoods had a lot to do preparing the ceremony; from the church of San Sebastiano di Melia, a procession of only men came out, the bearers carried the float with the Risen Christ on their shoulders, while from Mongiuffi a procession of only women set out, with their heads covered by a black veil, the float with the the Virgin of Sorrows was carried on their shoulders, a black veil covered her completely, leaving only her face uncovered, (underneath there was a white veil, which would have “appeared” at the moment of the encounter with the Risen Son): the two processions met in Melia (and still meet today), in an area called “’nto chianu di l’Angiuli” (the square of the Angels), in reality now it is little more than a narrow street: what happened in the past, still happens today (except that, the procession with the the Virgin of Sorrows no longer comes from Mongiuffi, but comes from Melia itself), the two processions coming from the two opposite directions, carrying the float with the the Virgin of Sorrows, and the one with the Risen Christ, stop one in front of the other. First there is a particular ceremony, two boys meet with their respective Crucifixes making three bows to each other, the same happens with two girls and then two men, with their banners, finally the highly emotional “Meeting” takes place between the Mother (the black cloak flies away, and the white one appears) with her Risen Son! Finally, hidden until then behind a curtain on a stage, there is the appearance of the children dressed as Angels, who undertake the traditional recitation. The historian, passionate about popular traditions, Giovanni Curcuruto, has always been close to the “little angels” having acted as director and choreographer, of this moving, very beautiful, “traditional Sicilian ceremony-festival”.

Presento qui una “Festa Siciliana”, con immagini e parole, che si è tenuta quest’anno in quello che è un “comune sparso”, poiché composto dalle due borgate di Mongiuffi e Melia, separate da una vallata nella quale scorre un fiume, vicine alla più conosciuta Taormina; la festa viene celebrata il giorno di Pasquetta (o Lunedì dell’Angelo), quest’anno la festa, iniziata normalmente, è stata poco dopo interrotta per l’arrivo della triste notizia del Santo Padre Francesco, venuto a mancare, quindi la festa è stata rinviata e celebrata domenica 27 aprile.
Storicamente le notizie che qui riporto, sinteticamente, sono tratte dal libro scritto dallo storico, ricercatore di tradizioni popolari e, fotografo, Giovanni Curcuruto, titolo dell’opera “Monfelia” (tipografia ETNA, OTTOBRE 2006): questa festa, chiamata inizialmente “Festa della Pace”, (poi indicata come “Festa degli Angeli”), fu istituita dal Marchese Francesco Rao Corvaja nel 1830, per tentare di portare armonia tra i due borghi, Mongiuffi e Melia, entrati in disaccordo negli anni passati per futili motivi, la festa fu celebrata fino al 1843, anno in cui i due borghi litigarono nuovamente, (le due comunità litigarono come se fossero tifoserie di stadio, una parteggiava per il clero, l’altra per i nobili), la festa venne quindi sospesa, e fu ripristinata solamente nel 1929; la festa quando venne istituita prevedeva che quaranta giorni prima del Lunedì di Pasqua, le due comunità si riunissero nella chiesa di San Sebastiano di Melia, per selezionare otto ragazzini, quattro di Mongiuffi in in onore della Madonna, e quattro di Melia in onore del Cristo Risorto, tra i dieci ed i quindici anni, il giorno della celebrazione sarebbero poi stati vestiti con abiti ed “ali” di colore bianco, impreziositi con nastri e fiocchetti; i ragazzini venivano istruiti a recitare un testo in dialetto siciliano misto a frasi in latino, scritto nel 1833 dal sacerdote Giovanni Cuzari. Il Lunedì dell’Angelo, le varie confraternite avevano un gran da fare per la preparazione della cerimonia; dalla chiesa di San Sebastiano di Melia, usciva una processione di soli uomini, i portatori recavano in spalla la vara col Cristo Risorto, mentre da Mongiuffi partiva una processione di sole donne, col capo coperto da un velo nero, veniva portata in spalla la vara con la Madonna Addolorata, un velo nero la copriva completamente, lasciandole scoperto solamente il volto, (sotto era presente un velo bianco, che sarebbe “apparso” nel momento dell’incontro col Figlio Risorto): le due processioni si incontravano a Melia (e si incontrano tutt’ora), in una zona chiamata “’nto chianu di l’Angiuli” (la piazza degli Angeli), in realtà adesso è poco più di una stretta stradina: quanto accadeva in passato, accade tutt’ora (tranne che, la processione con la Madonna Addolorata non proviene più da Mongiuffi, ma giunge dalla stessa Melia), le due processioni provenienti dalle due opposte direzioni, recanti la vara con la Madonna Addolorata, e quella col Cristo Risorto, si fermano una di fronta l’altra, dapprima
c’è una particolare cerimonia, due ragazzi si incontrano coi rispettivi Crocefissi facendosi l’un l’altro tre inchini, lo stesso accade con due ragazze e poi due uomini, con i loro stendardi, infine avviene “l’Incontro” altamente emozionante tra la Madre (vola via il mantello nero, ed appare quello bianco) col suo Figlio Risorto! Infine, nascosti fino ad allora dietro una tenda su di un palco, c’è l’apparizione dei ragazzini vestiti da Angeli, che intraprendono la recita tradizionale. Lo storico, appassionato di tradizioni popolari, Giovanni Curcuruto, è stato sempre accanto agli “angioletti” avendo fatto da regista e coreografo, di questa commovente, molto bella, “cerimonia – festa tradizionale Siciliana”.

I present here a “Sicilian Festival”, with images and words, which was held this year in what is a “scattered municipality”, since it is composed of the two hamlets of Mongiuffi and Melia, separated by a valley in which a river flows, close to the more famous Taormina; the festival is celebrated on Easter Monday, this year the festival, which began normally, was interrupted shortly after due to the arrival of the sad news of the Holy Father Francis, who passed away, so the festival was postponed and celebrated on Sunday 27 April. Historically, the news that I report here, briefly, are taken from the book written by the historian, researcher of popular traditions and photographer, Giovanni Curcuruto, title of the work "Monfelia" (ETNA printing house, OCTOBER 2006): this festival, initially called "Festa della Pace" (later indicated as "Festa degli Angeli"), was established by the Marquis Francesco Rao Corvaja in 1830, to try to bring harmony between the two villages, Mongiuffi and Melia, which had disagreed in the past years for trivial reasons. The festival was celebrated until 1843, the year in which the two villages argued again (the two communities argued as if they were stadium fans, one sided with the clergy, the other with the nobles), the festival was then suspended, and was only reinstated in 1929; the celebration when it was established required that forty days before Easter Monday, the two communities would gather in the church of San Sebastiano di Melia, to select eight children, four from Mongiuffi in honor of the Madonna, and four from Melia in honor of the Risen Christ, between ten and fifteen years old, on the day of the celebration they would then be dressed in white clothes and “wings”, embellished with ribbons and bows; the children were instructed to recite a text in Sicilian dialect mixed with Latin phrases, written in 1833 by the priest Giovanni Cuzari. On Easter Monday, the various brotherhoods had a lot to do preparing the ceremony; from the church of San Sebastiano di Melia, a procession of only men came out, the bearers carried the float with the Risen Christ on their shoulders, while from Mongiuffi a procession of only women set out, with their heads covered by a black veil, the float with the the Virgin of Sorrows was carried on their shoulders, a black veil covered her completely, leaving only her face uncovered, (underneath there was a white veil, which would have “appeared” at the moment of the encounter with the Risen Son): the two processions met in Melia (and still meet today), in an area called “’nto chianu di l’Angiuli” (the square of the Angels), in reality now it is little more than a narrow street: what happened in the past, still happens today (except that, the procession with the the Virgin of Sorrows no longer comes from Mongiuffi, but comes from Melia itself), the two processions coming from the two opposite directions, carrying the float with the the Virgin of Sorrows, and the one with the Risen Christ, stop one in front of the other. First there is a particular ceremony, two boys meet with their respective Crucifixes making three bows to each other, the same happens with two girls and then two men, with their banners, finally the highly emotional “Meeting” takes place between the Mother (the black cloak flies away, and the white one appears) with her Risen Son! Finally, hidden until then behind a curtain on a stage, there is the appearance of the children dressed as Angels, who undertake the traditional recitation. The historian, passionate about popular traditions, Giovanni Curcuruto, has always been close to the “little angels” having acted as director and choreographer, of this moving, very beautiful, “traditional Sicilian ceremony-festival”.

Presento qui una “Festa Siciliana”, con immagini e parole, che si è tenuta quest’anno in quello che è un “comune sparso”, poiché composto dalle due borgate di Mongiuffi e Melia, separate da una vallata nella quale scorre un fiume, vicine alla più conosciuta Taormina; la festa viene celebrata il giorno di Pasquetta (o Lunedì dell’Angelo), quest’anno la festa, iniziata normalmente, è stata poco dopo interrotta per l’arrivo della triste notizia del Santo Padre Francesco, venuto a mancare, quindi la festa è stata rinviata e celebrata domenica 27 aprile.
Storicamente le notizie che qui riporto, sinteticamente, sono tratte dal libro scritto dallo storico, ricercatore di tradizioni popolari e, fotografo, Giovanni Curcuruto, titolo dell’opera “Monfelia” (tipografia ETNA, OTTOBRE 2006): questa festa, chiamata inizialmente “Festa della Pace”, (poi indicata come “Festa degli Angeli”), fu istituita dal Marchese Francesco Rao Corvaja nel 1830, per tentare di portare armonia tra i due borghi, Mongiuffi e Melia, entrati in disaccordo negli anni passati per futili motivi, la festa fu celebrata fino al 1843, anno in cui i due borghi litigarono nuovamente, (le due comunità litigarono come se fossero tifoserie di stadio, una parteggiava per il clero, l’altra per i nobili), la festa venne quindi sospesa, e fu ripristinata solamente nel 1929; la festa quando venne istituita prevedeva che quaranta giorni prima del Lunedì di Pasqua, le due comunità si riunissero nella chiesa di San Sebastiano di Melia, per selezionare otto ragazzini, quattro di Mongiuffi in in onore della Madonna, e quattro di Melia in onore del Cristo Risorto, tra i dieci ed i quindici anni, il giorno della celebrazione sarebbero poi stati vestiti con abiti ed “ali” di colore bianco, impreziositi con nastri e fiocchetti; i ragazzini venivano istruiti a recitare un testo in dialetto siciliano misto a frasi in latino, scritto nel 1833 dal sacerdote Giovanni Cuzari. Il Lunedì dell’Angelo, le varie confraternite avevano un gran da fare per la preparazione della cerimonia; dalla chiesa di San Sebastiano di Melia, usciva una processione di soli uomini, i portatori recavano in spalla la vara col Cristo Risorto, mentre da Mongiuffi partiva una processione di sole donne, col capo coperto da un velo nero, veniva portata in spalla la vara con la Madonna Addolorata, un velo nero la copriva completamente, lasciandole scoperto solamente il volto, (sotto era presente un velo bianco, che sarebbe “apparso” nel momento dell’incontro col Figlio Risorto): le due processioni si incontravano a Melia (e si incontrano tutt’ora), in una zona chiamata “’nto chianu di l’Angiuli” (la piazza degli Angeli), in realtà adesso è poco più di una stretta stradina: quanto accadeva in passato, accade tutt’ora (tranne che, la processione con la Madonna Addolorata non proviene più da Mongiuffi, ma giunge dalla stessa Melia), le due processioni provenienti dalle due opposte direzioni, recanti la vara con la Madonna Addolorata, e quella col Cristo Risorto, si fermano una di fronta l’altra, dapprima
c’è una particolare cerimonia, due ragazzi si incontrano coi rispettivi Crocefissi facendosi l’un l’altro tre inchini, lo stesso accade con due ragazze e poi due uomini, con i loro stendardi, infine avviene “l’Incontro” altamente emozionante tra la Madre (vola via il mantello nero, ed appare quello bianco) col suo Figlio Risorto! Infine, nascosti fino ad allora dietro una tenda su di un palco, c’è l’apparizione dei ragazzini vestiti da Angeli, che intraprendono la recita tradizionale. Lo storico, appassionato di tradizioni popolari, Giovanni Curcuruto, è stato sempre accanto agli “angioletti” avendo fatto da regista e coreografo, di questa commovente, molto bella, “cerimonia – festa tradizionale Siciliana”.

"What a MACHINE you are, John!" - Jeremy Clarkson
A LEGO MOC of John the homemade truck from The Grand Tour Mongolia Special, one of the most beloved episodes of all time for fans of Clarkson, Hammond and May. Since the real John was scrapped after filming the episode, this is your only chance to have the next best thing!
John fits three minifigures on his bench seat with central driving position, just like on the show, as well as opening doors, a decorative winch, cameras, tools, and light bar. Stickers are added too for the license plates, the "John" lettering on the rear, and for Mr. Wilman's map that resides below the steering wheel. File for the stickers (to print on sticker paper) is included with purchase of instructions.
Minifigures are not included. However, a tutorial will go up on my YouTube channel in the near future about how to make your own Clarkson, Hammond, and May minifigures with parts you can buy on Bricklink, so stay tuned!
