Crushing blow for illegal off road bikers
Manchester City Council gave illegal off-road bikers a stark warning this weekend when dozens of vehicles were crushed beyond recognition into cubes of metal.
The illegal off-road bikes had been seized in east Manchester and the surrounding area. On Saturday lunch-time the council’s Deputy Leader, Councillor Jim Battle, pushed the button to start the crusher.
“We have been running a very successful campaign with Greater Manchester Police to rid the city’s streets, parks and open spaces of this off-road menace but there are those who are still flouting the law,” said Councillor Battle.
“The message is clear: if you ride an illegal off-road bike in a public place in Manchester, it will be confiscated and crushed,” he added.
The crushing took place between 1pm and 3pm on Saturday (October 17) on the ASDA car park at Sportcity on Ashton New Road.

This was my 2nd attempt at a button fairy to get ready for my swap-bot swap. I used the butterfly images from a postcard (you can buy them now at Target), a vintage photo image, some buttons and 24 guage craft wire.
Whilst the cars are undoubtedly the main attraction at the FoS, one of the most popular stars of the day was the 2009 F1 World Champion - Jenson Button. This year he drove the V12 Honda F1 car from the '60s - a winner in the hands of the late John Surtees.

Kind of reminds me of the architecture from the game "Portal". Seen in Daejeon, South Korea.

Spring really influenced my idea for this card. I cut a tree from a piece of brown suede paper....it's amazing how much this paper looks and feels like real suede. Then I added kiwi colored buttons that I laced brown with a synthetic raffia. I like the synthetic raffia here because it is shiny. I used a dot stamp on the background with VersaMark ink to add interest. A strip of white between the "hills" was added because they needed some definition. I stamped "thanks" in white and embossed it. I stopped there because I've found if you look at a card and like it, it's best to call it done. If you start adding things, pretty soon there is too much going on.
