Clinchfield Coal 100 - SW6, Carbo, VA, 8-29-1976, Lon Coone Photograph, Scanned by Nick O’Dell, Collection of Hunter Richardson
I like old book shops and whenever I have time I visit them. You cannot imagine what "pearls" you can find there.
In my photo you see Fulham Book Shop or Hurlingham Books, which is located in Ranelagh Gardens, 91 Fulham High St, London SW6 3JS.
It exists despite all the iPads and Kindles and all you need is Time.
I went there together with Paddington to find Something Nice for my Granddaughter Maija. Perhaps a book about Faeries

GWL - It doesn't matter how much you dress it up, it's still a satellite dish! - Finally guessed by Les Bailey.
Walpamur of Darwen, Lancs used to be a household name, but haven't seen their products or ads for a long while. I hadn't realised that the strange name is, in fact, a peculiar shortening of 'The Wall Paper Manufacturers'. Google also reveals that the company still has an address in Darwen and that this once was the most popular paint brand among professional decorators, affectionately known as 'Wallop' (or so we are told).

This year the FFF+ Group have decided to have a monthly challenge called “Freestyle On The Fifth”. A different theme chosen by a member of the group each month, and the image is to be posted on the 5th of the month.
This month the theme, “change” was chosen by GG (Greenstone Girl)
Whilst walking through Preston one summer, I went past the Preston Tram Depot and witnessed a little piece of history as the old met the new (or newer anyway) as tram 2093 from 1992 passed by stationary tram 892 from 1944. The face of Melbourne’s wonderful suburban tram network has certainly changed over the years.
Tram 892, an SW6-class tram, put in service on the 25th of November 1944 and withdrawn from service on the 25th of September 2013.
The SW6-class were introduced in 1939. 150 were built in total. At their introduction, W6-class trams were popular with passengers and crew alike for being fast, smooth and comfortable. The first 40 had flip-over wooden seats in the end saloons, the remainder having upholstered bus seats. All had wooden seats in the centre saloon until the 1970s when there were changes to smoking legislation, and the entire class was refurbished with upholstered seats throughout. As of January 2020, one tram (961) remains in service with Yarra Trams in original condition. Twelve SW6 trams are in the hands of preservation groups, one of which is used as a café tram in Bendigo. Three SW6-class trams also operate on the Colonial Tramcar Restaurant, which is a wonderful dining experience if you have never done it.
Tram 2093, a B2-class tram, put into service on the 18th September 1992 and withdrawn on the 18th of December 2019.
130 B2-class trams were completed by Comeng between 1987 and 1994, originally for the St Kilda and Port Melbourne light rail conversions. They proved popular and they quickly spread across the Melbourne suburban tram network. B2-class trams were the first Melbourne trams to feature air conditioning, and also the first to include dot matrix signs. B2-class trams remain in service and are painted in either the Yarra Trams livery or have all-over advertising on them.
Former Melbourne and Metropolitan Tramways Board "W" class tram SW6 898 is seen in the rear yard of a premises in the main street of Creswick, Victoria. I have no idea what it is being used for. The tram is missing its bogies and wheels and is sitting on wooden blocks.
With the recent arrival of another "W" class tram to a private property on the outskirts of Creswick, there are now two old trams in Creswick and one in Clunes. This picture was taken on the evening of Wednesday the 20th of December, 2023.
