The Lanchester brothers built their first car in Birmingham in 1896 which sadly was lost in a bombing raid on the factory during WW2. By 1899 they had built a car that ran successfullt in the 1000 mile trial of 1900, that car is now housed in the London Sceince Museum. At the end of 1899 the brothers found financial backing to set up the Lanchester Engine Company, based in Armourer Road, Birmingham in 1901
The early Lanchesters were designed by Fred Lanchester ibcorporated a number of unusual features, its engine was a horizontally opposed flat twin of 4 litres located in the centre of the car, driving the rear wheels through a three speed epicycle and worm final drive. On the early 10hp model the engine was air cooled, this slightly later 10-12 hp car was water cooled
The driving position and controls have a side mounted tiller, Lanchester always built their own bodies and this is a very early example of semi-unitary construction..

My cat, with a sense of suspicion in his eyes - hardly surprising as he knows damn well that the bed is a no-go area.
As I drifted under and then behind her perch on Horsepen Bayou, Ms American Bald Eagle repositioned herself to better keep an eye on me.
Celebrate Impermanence - Day 4
Change can come about in many ways. Sometimes we seek it out and other times it comes upon us unawares. There are many crossroads throughout life and choices to be made. We ask ourselves: "Shall I turn right or left or shall I just keep walking straight on."
Whatever change we make, or which comes upon us without warning, putting our trust in the long term outcome gives us a new found strength and confidence to carry on, come what may.

For a brief moment, the boundary between people and nature disappears. A small Eurasian tree sparrow perches lightly on a hand, trusting enough to eat crumbs straight from the palm, while another waits close by. The background melts into soft branches and winter light, making the quiet exchange feel gentle and unplanned.

Made the most of a window of opportunity after tea yesterday.Walked up onto a black,blustry West Nab. Saw purple pin cushion heather and mossy gritstone painted by a low evening sun.Wind and rays chased cloud and doubts away.

One of my favourite street artists on the Royal Mile. I love a girl who puts such effort into a gorgeous costume - plus I adore mermaids.

On 23 October 1962, during the Cuban Missile Crisis, four U.S. Navy P-3A aircrews from Patrol Squadron 8 (VP-8) and four from VP-44 began enforcing President John F. Kennedy’s blockade of Cuba to prevent Soviet missiles from reaching the island. The P-3 crews patrolled the Atlantic sea lanes to locate and track Soviet cargo ships carrying missiles or launch support equipment. After the crisis ended, a VP-44 crew was photographed flying close surveillance over the Russian freighter Anasov on its return to the Soviet Union. Anasov was the only Russian vessel that refused to uncover the large oblong objects lashed to its deck. The Orion crew was able to verify that the objects were crated missiles, and the ship was allowed to proceed. lockheedmartin.com/codeone
