"There was a single blue line of crayon drawn across every wall in the house. What does it mean? I said. A pirate needs the sight of the sea, he said and then he pulled his eye patch down and turned and sailed away."
~ from Crayon Pirate (Story People)
Texture: les brumes --Many Thanks!

A steep scrub of boulder behind a large cow, horse and bull field in between Catllaurens and the Camp de la Coma. Not easy to find, but fascinating in its modesty. A date that may be from neolithic through to the Bronze age. There may be a single linked cup (dumbbell), but aside that the station only has single cups and these are sprinkled over a wide area.
Top left : a simple cup hides between lichen and texture.
Top right : a larger sized cup - over 10cm in diameter.
Lower left : a single solitary cup.
Lower right : a single cup with a canal that has nothing to link to.
Contrast this quiet site with the dense and diverse clusters up hill in Catllaurens and downhill in the 'Camp de la Coma', and you can almost imagine scenarios of excluded individuals, loners, failed attempts to start an new gathering point, 'les autres' and so on. From another trajectory you may simply see an intermediate zone, mostly used by lone or hunter duos ; individuals rather than coordinated groups, who are after a couple of rabbits and a bird or two for a project and an evening meal.
We are reminded of some of the smaller stones on Ilkley Moor...
On just such an informal site, a hunters registry will not have been required, as there was no judicious share for a large team of role players, and so no chance of the disputes that may have otherwise disordered such necessary and social occasions - for example people only turning up in the afternoon and yet claiming a full share... When it's one man or two men off for trapping or opportunistic hunting, the catch is collected without debate and a hunter's registry stone would have no function.
Stepping back; as might be expected, it may be that the 'administrative gesture' of placing an identity 'amulet' into a cup, has been codified as a rite, so that the act of showing that 'you were there' becomes a rite of thanks, a codified ritual of exchanging elements in the anamistic environment. There may have been no 'original' functional need to make and honor a cup, but the act has become a cultural norm - a spiritual necessity.
There are umpteen examples of sublimations in culture and society : gestures that express beyond their original function, gestures that transcend, and many will easily come to mind...

More than three kilometres long, a single-bore circular tunnel wide enough to carry four lanes of traffic side-by-side, taken underneath one of the UK's major river mouths. It would be a celebrated engineering feat if it were completed today. But the Queensway Tunnel — or the Birkenhead Tunnel, if you're a local — was excavated by hand to connect Liverpool to the Wirral, and opened in 1934.
At the time it was the biggest tunnel the world had ever seen — wider than any other, and substantially longer than most other subaqueous tunnels. It is incredible that it is not more widely recognised as one of the UK's pieces of landmark engineering, but then it sits entirely underground and as a result doesn't get much attention. It's a miracle that it exists at all, given that the government was very reluctant to provide any funding and Liverpool was the only local authority interested in building it.

43027 '90 Glorious Years' with 43162 out of sight on the rear depart Malvern Link on Sunday 3-7-16.
I've lost my notes on the working so will add when I get the chance.
Due to engineering work at Malvern Wells trains were only running to Great Malvern and using the down track only.

Class 122 single car unit TDB975540, the Western Region Route Learning Saloon, set L102, reverses at Gloucester on 20th March 1981. The 'Bubble Cars' as they became affectionately known, were essentially a Class 116 Driving Motor Brake Second with a cab at both ends. This unit was built by the Gloucester Carriage & Wagon Co. and entered service as W55016 in July 1958, allocated to Southall depot. November 1975 saw it enter departmental service, where it remained as a route learning vehicle, until withdrawn in May 1993. It was disposed of by MC Metals in Glasgow in the July of that year.
