A little patch of rust on a red enamel bread bin from around 1940.
To me it looks like an amoeba :)

This wooden breadbox with its removable cutting board is a breakthrough in bread storage. Despite the painted breadbin's simple appearance, I have spent almost two years researching the design of this Nordic Breadbin®. £95
The concept is pure genius; open the breadbin door, slice your bread on the removable, magnetic breadboard and either tip the crumbs into the bin or take the attractive wooden board to the table.
This beautiful wooden container is large enough to hold several loaves of bread.

Proverbs 23:6-8
"Do not eat the bread of a man who is stingy; do not desire his delicacies, for he is like one who is inwardly calculating. "Eat and drink!" he says to you, but his heart is not with you. You will vomit up the morsels that you have eaten, and waste your pleasant words."
Maybe not the most exciting shot but I wanted to discuss this passage in detail.
Quite often the alternative translation of this verse is used to support the idea that the Bible promotes positive thinking. Sometimes people will quote, "As a man thinks within himself, so he is".
I have major problems with taking that approach to interpreting this verse. You can't just take a verse out of context to support your own ideas. Reading this verse in the context of the surrounding passage reveals the true meaning of the phrase and it is not the power of positive thinking. The verse is talking about a stingy man who gives the outward appearance of being generous but inside he is begrudgingly feeding the guest.
For a further analysis have a look at this link from Greg Koukl.
And now for something completely different - a North Eastern Q6 0-8-0 63395 inside Loughborough shed.
63395 is visiting from the NYMR, courtesy of NELPG. and will be running on photo charters the week of the 19th January (but probably not the weekend of 17th/18th) and will star in the Winter Gala on January 30th-February 1st.
An interesting footplate layout but just what is that folding-lidded breadbin over the firehole door all about?
At the time this was taken in 1985 (not by me by the way), the writing was on the wall for the then South Division Headquarters of Merseyside PTE because, not long after, Merseybus closed it down. Three years later when I took some photos, I wasn't fucking brave enough to see what memorabilia I could salvage from either the bus sheds themselves or the offices.
Until recently, the only clues as to what this was was behind the metal picket fence behind was is now Iceland because, if you looked carefully, you could just about make out the old tram lines.
Until 1948, the building (with the twin gabled roof in the background of this shot) was Smithdown Road tram depot...the first one to be converted to bus maintenance while the buildlings in the foreground are those of Prince Alfred Road bus depot, which is where a Bill Peters started work as a guard (northern speak for conductor) and later driver in 1952.
The 5, 46, 60, 61, 79 and 81 were all worked from this very garage until I think the 1980s. Until the New Strand (Merseyside's first shopping centre) opened its doors on 4 October 1968, the 81 terminated at Bootle Oriel Road station; the 60 originally started at Aigburth before being cut back to DIngle, terminating at Regent Road, Bootle and, as for the 61, before being cut back to Bootle, that ran to Seaforth.
The garage buildings at PAR may have gone but where the buses used to drive in and out on Prince Alfred Road itself are still there. As for this photo, I think it must have been taken in the winter or after a heavy fucking shower.
The bus on the left is a Metropolitan, the double-deck equivalent of the Metro-Scania...so-called because Scania built the chassis while MCW of Washwood Heath in Birmingham built the body. According to what I've read, these buses were notorious for corrosion but they had more fucking character than today's breadbins on wheels...especially the single deck Metro-Scanias!
More items for my retro cupcake themed kitchen - retro style canisters and bread bin with scalloped edge lids all from Next. I love how the colours blend with the cupcakes on the chopping board!
So I sat there in me highchair, thinking one day, looking at me tray and thinking what I'd give for a meal on there. So I started looking round to see what I could have. I was rubbing me eggy soldier in me head, trying to think, and then I looked in the corner and there's a little breadbin with its mouth open, just staring at me, like. And then I looked in and I saw bread.
I thought, oh yeah, I'll have toast,
A little piece of toast.

1945 built Simplex No.10 'Haydn Taylor' had been new to British Industrial Sand at Middleton Towers, Norfolk, arriving at Leighton Buzzard in the early 1970's. Nicknamed 'Breadbin' due to it's unusal cab design, it is seen here at rest at Stonehenge Works on 19th June 2022.
When me and my new support worker Hayley Brown visited the Spring Transport Festival back in March, this Leyland Atlantean with 76-seat Metro-Cammell body was the first bus I photographed. It was also one of 31 such buses delivered to the very image-conscious Salford City Transport the year that Canada gained independence, Rhodesia told Britain to go and fuck herself by declaring itself unilaterally independent (that is becoming independent without agreement from Britain...something that Scotland should have done two years ago) and when Churchill (NOT the fucking dog) died. If you haven't guessed, the year is 1965.
Despite the autocratic Charles Baroth retiring as Salford's general manager three years earlier, the undertaking was still very image-conscious because successor John Craggs saw no reason to change the status quo and, for the first three years of its life, Salford 214, in common with its sisters only carried advertising on the inside. But as we all know, arses on seats aren't enough to generate revenue so, in 1968, adverts finally appeared on the outside of the city's buses.
Ten years later, this bus was one of seven of the batch that made their way north to Lancaster, donning blue and white...in common with all council vehicles operated by that city, including bin wagons and possibly going topless at some stage for operating the seafront service in Morecambe.
However, nowadays this old lady is back in Salford green but as to who owns her, I'm fucked if I know. This I do know, she has more fucking character than today's buses or should that be breadbins on wheels?

This is my Commodore set-up. 1520 plotter, working, but pens are missing. 1701 monitor in good condition. C64-1 breadbin computer, fully working with one loose key. 1541 disk drive, works nice. 1341 joystick, a bit dull. 3rd party datasette, belts ale loose. Original hard dustcover. Final cartridge III. I also have Commodore C2N datasette, but I prefer this one because of design.
Taken at the Spring Transport Festival at the end of March near-enough, this is very first production Leyland Atlantean, taking to the roads in December 1958 (or the following year for all I know). Except for London (where the first rear engined single decker took to the roads for the first time nineteen years earlier, even though it was really a coach) this would have raised many an eyebrow.
As for this particular bus, Wallasey 1, well, I'm guessing she last turned a wheel in revenue-earning service in 1973 and my ex-supervisor Vic Drennan (who probably rode on one of her sister buses) likened the engine noise to that of a vacuum cleaner.
I know one thing, this old girl has more character than today's double-decked (and single-decked) breadbins.
This is one of the two photos used to make the panorama. The Grand Enclosure is on the right edge.
In ‘Snakes and Crocodiles - Power and Symbolism in Ancient Zimbabwe’ 1996 T N Huffman controversially uses structuralist ideology to give an insight into the functions of the ruined structures, using his ‘Khami /Venda model’.
Perimeter walls separated prestige buildings of the noblemen around the sides and back of the hill complex from the high density housing at the front. The prestige buildings were probably the town houses of provincial governors and chiefs.
The court for commoners is the amphitheatre/assembly area below the modern museum – the royal court in the palace, possibly in the between the front and inner walls of the Western Enclosure. He identifies a residence of the muchinda or little chief in the ‘Camp Ruins area and above the court area a Thondo or enclosure for the rulers warrior guard with a convoluted entrance.
South of the court amphitheatre stands a series of enclosures, sometimes called the Renders, Posselt, Phillips, and Maund ruins.
East of the court in the valley, a number of passages link a large number of units into a whole residential unit. Many doorways and walls have symbolic furrows, and there is a symbolic ‘breadbin’ tower beside which the eighth Zimbabwe Bird was found (Lower homestead 2, Phillips Ruin) Huffman believes he has identified the wives area, and within it the residence of the vahozi or chief wife. The eighth bird carries divination symbols, and may have been used in intercessions with the vahozi’s ancestor spirits to protect the royal wives from witchcraft.
The Mauch ruins remain an enigma, they link to the vahozi’s residence and contained a platform and a pair of iron gongs.
The Great Enclosure is enormous – an estimated 0.9 million blocks in the outer wall alone, of which a quarter is prominently marked with a double chevron. The passage entrance on the wives side leads to the parallel passage and areas containing conical towers –that on the court side opens onto an area with two tall monoliths. One of the areas contains a speaker’s platform and a number of clay and soapstone figurines were found nearby. The building contains many female and male symbols and Huffman identified the great enclosure as a premarital initiation school, similar to the Domba school of the Venda.

I have several of these which belonged to my Grandmother
It actually took about 40 minutes just to find my way out of the barn sale. When I eventually did, I somehow ended up with a washing machine and a picture of Lonnie Donegan.

In the early 1970s, the newly-formed Selnec PTE were on the lookout for a standardised double decker. By standardised, I mean a bus with panels which could be interchangeable when it came to making good accident damage and the same electrical system.
In 1972, about the same time that the first production line bus, the Leyland National was making its debut (the first one going to Selnec) the first Standards made their appearance on the streets of Greater Manchester. The first lot were Leyland Atlantean AN68s with 75-seat Park Royal bodies and representing the next lot of the Mark 1 Standards were buses like this - a Daimler Fleetline with the same bodywork but arriving in 1973.
By the time this bus was withdrawn, it would have been based up at Bolton and, unlike one of its older sisters, this one is preserved by the SELNEC Preservation Society.
Whereas the older and more established Greater Manchester Transport Society (of which I used to be a member and later subscriber) preserves front- and rear-engined buses from the pre-Selnec, Selnec/GMT and post-GMT eras, this society mainly preserves the rear-engined variety and let's face it, this bus has got more character than the breadbins (which are its successors) getting the public from A to B today.
