Registered in Merseyside - untaxed since 1999 - no DVLA MOT history.
Spotted this about 4 or 5 years ago...didn't have my camera at the time; pretty sure I've seen this on Flickr since then too.
Cash register in the cafeteria of an abandoned middle school in Pripyat.
Named for the nearby Pripyat River, Pripyat was founded on 4 February 1970, the ninth nuclear city in the Soviet Union, for the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. It was officially proclaimed a city in 1979, and had grown to a population of 49,360 before being evacuated a few days after the 26 April 1986 Chernobyl disaster.
Though Pripyat is located within the administrative district of Ivankiv Raion, the abandoned city now has a special status within the larger Kiev Oblast (province), being administered directly from Kiev. Pripyat is also supervised by Ukraine's Ministry of Emergencies, which manages activities for the entire Chernobyl Exclusion Zone.
Access to Pripyat, unlike cities of military importance, was not restricted before the disaster as nuclear power stations were seen by the Soviet Union as safer than other types of power plants. Nuclear power stations were presented as being an achievement of Soviet engineering, where nuclear power was harnessed for peaceful projects. The slogan "peaceful atom" (Russian: ?????? ????, mirnyj atom) was popular during those times. The original plan had been to build the plant only 25 km (16 mi) from Kiev, but the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences, among other bodies, expressed concern about it being too close to the city. As a result, the power station and Pripyat were built at their current locations, about 100 km (62 mi) from Kiev. After the disaster the city of Pripyat was evacuated in two days.
A 35 man (plus guides) trip to the Ukraine exploring Chernobyl, the village, Duga 3, Pripyat and Kiev including Maidan (Independence Square) and observing the peaceful protests underway.
Some new faces, some old, made new friends and generally we were in our elements.
Rhetorical question but did we have a blast? You bet!
Amazing group, top guys. Till the next time!

Something so old and yet so beautiful. The craftsmanship of the day was amazing. And doesn’t use electricity.
The tulips arrived in great numbers and stayed longer than usual this year! We found we had a number of tulips which we didn't even know we had--yellow, yellow and red, orange, and a purple. Maybe next year, with care, they'll return as well.

**Abo** - National Register of Historic Places Ref # 66000497, date listed 19661015
3 mi. W of Abo on U.S. 60
Mountainair, NM (Torrance County)
A National Historic Landmark (www.nps.gov/subjects/nationalhistoriclandmarks/list-of-nh...).
The Abo Unit of Salinas Pueblo Missions National Monument sits west of the town of Mountainair, New Mexico, and contains approximately 370 acres. The number and size of unexcavated pueblo mounds suggest that when the Spanish arrived in 1581 they would have found a thriving community. In 1622 Fray Francisco Fonte was assigned to the Abo Mission. Working with the Puebloan, Fonte established the use of rooms in one of the pueblos for an early convento. An early smaller Abo Church and Convento were built starting in 1623. Similar to Quarai, the convento for this church curiously contained a Circular Kiva. This Puebloan religious structure probably aided in early conversions. Construction on this earlier church and convento was completed by 1628. In 1629, a second missionary, Fray Francisco Acevedo, was assigned to Abo. In 1640 Acevedo began to renovate the Abo church and convento. This renovation increased the size of the church and included many improvements. This new, larger church was built around the smaller church, allowing services to continue until the smaller church needed to be dismantled and removed. Renovations to the church and convento were complete by 1658. Like Gran Quivira, a combination of disease, drought, famine, and Apache raiding led to the abandonment of Abo in 1673.
For over 100 years Abo was quiet. In 1815 Spanish sheep hearders attempted to return to the area, but were pushed out by Apaches in 1830. Settlers would permanently return in 1865. (1)
The kiva, or Indian ceremonial chamber, in the patio appears to have been built at the time of the first church and convento. It was later filled with trash, possibly during Acevedo's renovation. It's puzzling to find this symbol of Indian religion in the midst of a Franciscan mission. Why was it here? No adequate explanation has yet been found. (from Abo Trail Guide)

Dealey Plaza is included in the block of Elm Street in Downtown Dallas where President John F. Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963. The area of the Dealey Plaza Historic District (NRHP #93001607), along with the West End Historic District (NRHP #78002918), are listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and both include the building in the photograph above. Dealey Plaza is also considered a National Historic Landmark (NHL).
This 7-story 80,000-square-foot red brick structure was built in 1901 by an unknown architect as a warehouse and showroom for the Rock Island Plow Company of Illinois; it replaced an 1898 structure that burned earlier the same year. The free-standing warehouse, about 100 feet square, stands on the northwest corner of Elm and Houston Streets. Its main facade is on Elm Street extended (the pre-1936 Elm Street) with the eastern side on Houston Street. The west side faces the rail and switching yards. The north side faces spurs of the rail yards connecting with Pacific Avenue, the primary east-west rail transit way through Downtown Dallas.
The warehouse, though it possesses certain characteristics of early Chicago skyscraper construction, was built with Classical details, including arched windows on all floors except seven, with those on six being round arched on the central five of the seven bays of each facade; multi-story pilasters (running floors two to six) with limestone capitals, and other stylized features characteristic of early 20th-century warehouses. It has masonry load-bearing walls with interior heavy pine square milled beams supporting the flooring. The brick used was a formed common style. A dropped metal ceiling, offices, and show windows were built on the first floor. The seventh-floor corporate offices included a dropped metal ceiling, with interior brick walls stained maroon, and interior window trim painted dark green. The windows were wood, double hung, set in structural masonry arches with the exterior cornice of metal. A painted exterior sign, above the seventh-floor ceiling, read "Southern Rock Island Plow Co." The "O's" in the sign concealed louvers, which ventilated the attic spaces. (This sign was removed at an unknown date.) The building was set back on the northwest first-floor corner to accommodate the loading and unloading of heavy equipment from the adjacent rail track. The upper floors cantilevered out over the track on that side.
The Rock Island Plow Company and its successor, the Southern Rock Island Plow Company, retained ownership until 1937. In 1939, D.H. Byrd of Dallas purchased it and afterward leased it to a variety of tenants. At the time of the assassination in 1963, it was leased to the Texas School Book Depository Company, a private textbook brokerage firm not affiliated with the State of Texas, which, nevertheless, warehoused and supplied textbooks to Texas schools. The firm maintained corporate offices in the building, and used the upper floors for storing textbooks.
The storage areas in the building on floors four, five, and six, typically filled with stacks of boxes of schoolbooks, were free of interior partitions, with wooden whitewashed ceilings, and whitewashed millwork beams set at 14-foot intervals supporting the floors. The interior brick walls were also whitewashed. The hardwood floors were rough. Access to these floors was by freight elevator or by the enclosed wooden staircase in the far northwest corner. Lighting was supplied by metal domed hanging fixtures with bare electrical bulbs. An exposed metal water pipe fire sprinkler system ran along the ceilings. All the electrical wiring was exposed conduit mounted on the horizontal and vertical wooden beams. (*Note: On November 22, 1963, workmen were laying a new flooring of rectangular plywood sheets over the existing flooring on the sixth floor of the warehouse. When the assassination occurred, at 12:30 p.m. local time, the workmen were at lunch.)
In 1970 the Depository Company moved out and Byrd sold the building to Aubrey Mayhew of Nashville, Tennessee, who planned to turn it into a commercial attraction centering on the association with the Kennedy assassination. Mayhew defaulted on his payments two years later. The building reverted to Byrd in 1972 shortly after an employee of Mayhew's set fire to the interior, which suffered only small damage. Between 1970 and 1977 the warehouse deteriorated; there was some discussion during the early1970's of demolishing it, but the city refused to issue a demolition permit. In late 1977, Dallas County purchased the old warehouse from Byrd, using funds voted in a public bond election. Between 1978 and 1988, the County renovated five floors and the basement for use as administrative offices and as the seat of County government. The fate of the sixth floor, which was sealed off and not exhibited to the public, remained an unsettled issue. A 1979 study funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities recommended that the floor be used for a major exhibition on the legacy and assassination of President Kennedy. The results were accepted and acted upon by the Dallas County Commissioners Court.
In 1988-89, the County, in cooperation with the non-profit Dallas County Historical Foundation, restored the sixth floor, installed the permanent Sixth Floor exhibit, and constructed and opened a new Visitors' Center to the north of the warehouse. The character of the exhibit and its non-intrusive use of historic space have won critical acclaim as well as a 98% approval rating from its approximately 300,000 annual visitors. Six films, graphics, over 300 historic photographs, and radio & tape recordings, including oral history recordings by witnesses & newsmen, are featured. Restoration and adaptation of the sixth floor was done under the general supervision of architects Eugene George and James Hendricks. The exhibit content was largely the work of Conover Hunt, with design by the Washington, D.C. firm of Robert Staples and Barbara Charles. The films were the work of Allen and Cynthia Salzman Mondell; Martin Jurow was the executive producer. The Texas Historical Commission and the National Park Service were advisors.
The two evidential areas--the sniper's perch (seen in the 6th window from the bottom of the far right row of windows) in the far southeast corner and the area where the rifle was found, with a nearby stairwell and freight elevator--are kept from public access by clear glass walls. No evidence is on display in those areas; nearby exhibit copy discusses them. They are furnished with duplicates of cardboard boxes placed as they were arranged on November 22, 1963 (based on examination of some dozen photographs of this corner taken on the day of the assassination). A clear plexiglass pane has been installed in the space on the far southeast partially raised corner window to indicate its position at the time of the assassination. As a safety measure, metal and glass barriers were installed in the concrete flooring in front of all windows accessible for public viewing. (The bottoms of the windows are only 18" from the floor and all exposed window frames are also sealed shut with small brass screws.)

And what we also need for them is the computer POS systems to have the cashiers see the products purchased listed on. You see the Food Lion's Millennium decor? One component is the department signage, for example, the Cold Beer signage. The other component is Food Lion's motto, Extra Low Prices on the other boundary after the Cold Beer boundary. Don't get too drunk on these signs, okay?

French-registered Yak-3UTI-PW F-AZIM, wrapped up against the cold at Blackbushe Airport. This is one of five new-build aircraft that were produced in Romania in the 1990s. They were built using Yak 11 jigs and equipped with a PW R1830 engine. The original Yak-3UTI, with Shvetsov ASh-21 engine was the basis of the Yak-11 trainer. At some point, the previous 'Russian' red stars have been overpainted with Ukrainian national markings.
Registered in central London on the 21st October 1988 so almost 25 years to the day when I photographed this! Signs of the infamous arch rot these MkII are known for is present which is no surprise. This one's currently on SORN. Number plate tagged with 'Dutton-Forshaw West End' I didn't find much about them on Google, don't think they're about anymore.
