A slightly more "in your face" shot of Sunday's 6E01 Carlisle - Eggborough.
Sadly it would appear that Bardon Mill signal box is not long for this world. Having been switched out for more than 15 years it would seem from the document linked below that Network Rail want rid.

This seven-sided star shape can be used as one half of a two-piece box or alone as an ornament. This heptagonal star design is based around my Chevron Corrugation (UD-DU variant) and folded from a rectangle with 16×5 square grid. Variants with more rays or donut-shaped stars with a hole in the middle can be made in a similar way.

We saw one of these last year - but just the one, so owners of box hedges I hope shouldn't worry too much (apparently if you get a lot of them, the caterpillars can completely defoliate box).
This box, designed in late 2020, is decorated with a shamrock, and folded from a single square of Tant paper. In contrast to most of my box designs, in which the lid is separate from the bottom part, this one is single-part and opens via a hinge. Two large flaps on both sides lock underneath a pleat that goes along the bottom of the box, making it possible to close the box quite neatly.
In order to limit the design to the convenient 16×16 grid, I ended up with a slit between the closed lid and the front wall. Using a slightly larger grid, it should be easy to add a small flap in front of the lid and ensure that in closed state, nothing can fall out of the box.

Isn't it beautiful in Summer, to see houses, walls, windows and facades, decorated and cheered up with flowers.
Some people just do not have a garden, what a brilliant solution, for all of us!
Do we even think about that now or is it just another given?
It suddenly dawned on me.
I think there is a trend though, to also have autumn and winter plants and fun.
Oh please, ANYTHING to make our moods brighter, lol.
Thank you, M, (*_*)

HAPPY EARTH DAY!
100% biodegradable fiberboard water containers are starting to be a common site in and around the Navajo Nation. These earth friendly boxes are at a convenience store in Bluff, San Juan County, Utah. It's definitely time to start finding and using alternatives to single use plastic. Of course a reusable water bottle would be even better!

Whitby signal box, photographed on 3 August 1981.
From wikipedia:
"In 1854, the Y&NM helped form the North Eastern Railway, who later added two more platforms (also replaced by the supermarket) to help deal with traffic from the other branch lines that served Whitby; the Esk Valley Line finally opened throughout to a junction at Grosmont in 1863. The coast line from Loftus opened in 1883 and from Scarborough in 1885. Block signalling replaced the time interval system in 1876 and brought Whitby an unusual three storey signal box (to make it high enough to see over the adjacent goods shed)."
Actually this phone box is not as desolate as it looks as it is next a road at Studland where traffic queues to board the Sandbanks Ferry.
The red telephone box is a public telephone kiosk designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott and is a familiar sight on the streets of the United Kingdom, Malta, Bermuda and Gibraltar. Despite a reduction in their numbers in recent years, the traditional British red telephone box can still be seen in many places throughout the UK, and in current or former British colonies around the world. The colour red was chosen to make them easy to spot.
The red phone box is often seen as an iconic British symbol throughout the world.
This one is the much used K6 (kiosk number six) design which In 1935 was designed to commemorate the silver jubilee of King George V. K6 was the first red telephone kiosk to be extensively used outside London, and many thousands were deployed in virtually every town and city, replacing most of the existing kiosks and establishing thousands of new sites. It has become a British icon, although it was not universally loved at the start. The red colour caused particular local difficulties and there were many requests for less visible colours. The red that is now much loved was then anything but, and the Post Office was forced into allowing a less strident grey with red glazing bars scheme for areas of natural and architectural beauty. Ironically, some of these areas that have preserved their telephone boxes have now painted them red.
Studland Bay is protected from the prevailing southwesterly winds and storms by Ballard Down and Handfast Point, the chalk headland that separates Studland from Swanage Bay to the south. In the 17th century there began a process of sand accumulation in the bay and along the South Haven Peninsula stretching north, resulting in natural land reclamation and the creation or expansion of the bay's beaches and its sand dune system.
The beaches at Studland Bay are amongst the most popular in the country, and on rare hot summer weekends they fill up with thousands of people. The beaches are situated in civil parish of Studland on the Isle of Purbeck in the English county of Dorset. The South East Dorset Conurbation of Poole, Bournemouth & Boscombe lies on the other side of Poole Harbour, resulting in the beaches being relatively accessible to a large population via the Sandbanks Ferry. North of the visitor centre the beach and dunes are owned and managed by the National Trust, who have restricted parking provision at the site to prevent overcrowding. A short northern stretch of beach is reserved as a naturist beach.
Since the early 20th century the supply of sand to the bay has depleted and erosion is occurring so that, if natural processes are uninterrupted, the coastline may in time retreat back to its previous line, visible as a line of higher ground between Redend Point and the hill east of the Knoll House Hotel. In January 2004 the BBC television series The National Trust investigated the conflicts between different groups of people who use the beach and heath at Studland. The series particularly covered the debate about coastal management, with the Trust proposing to remove defensive walls to allow natural processes to shape the coastline, though this would result in loss of some land and property.
The final stage of the South West Coast Path (if walked in the conventional anti-clockwise direction, starting at Minehead, Somerset) follows Studland Bay and ends at South Haven Point, where a sculpture marks the end.
The actual village of Studland lies 2.5 miles (4 km) to the south of here and it is famous for these beaches and a nature reserve. It lies within the Purbeck administrative district, and is located about 2 miles (3.2 km) north of the town of Swanage, over a steep chalk ridge, and 3 miles (4.8 km) south of the South East Dorset conurbation at Sandbanks, but separated from it by Poole Harbour and the Sandbanks Ferry. The parish includes Brownsea Island within the harbour. In the 2011 Census the parish had a population of 425, though many of the houses in the village are holiday homes, second homes, or guest houses, and the village's population varies depending upon the season.
Sandbanks Ferry is a vehicular chain ferry which crosses the entrance of Poole Harbour and its route runs from Sandbanks to Studland and in doing so connects the coastal parts of the towns of Bournemouth and Poole with Swanage and the Isle of Purbeck. This avoids a 25 mile journey by road.
The ferry, along with the this road that connects with it on the Studland side, is owned by the Bournemouth - Swanage Motor Road and Ferry Company, which initiated the ferry crossing in 1923, and a toll is charged for use of both road and ferry. The current toll for a car is £3.50 each way. The current ferry boat, named Bramble Bush Bay, was put into service in 1994 and can carry up to 48 cars. It is the fourth vessel to operate on the route.
The entrance to Poole Harbour is a particularly busy waterway, used by many private and leisure craft along with commercial vessels including large ferries serving routes to France. This often affects the ability of the ferry to maintain its nominal 20 minute frequency. Wilts and Dorset buses cross the ferry frequently throughout the day, on route 50 from Bournemouth to Swanage.

First day back to work today after two weeks off! This will be a busy week with Shrove Tuesday tomorrow and Valentine's Day on Thursday!
My main job for today was to create a floral display of Valentine's Day flowers at the front of my store (i'm sure it'll be an upload later this week).
This rose really stood out amongst all the traditional red bouquets. It's called Kaleidoscope and is £3 per single rose. I believe that it is a white rose that has been dyed various colours. I had to buy one and use it as todays shot!
