I've recently decided to change my look, nothing major, just tinkering.

Does it work?

I hope so, be wonderful to read your thoughts my darlings. ❤

I've changed the content of the museum wall, putting the photo of Rosmarie Wirz into the frame: visit PhotoFunia to do similar things:

After a nice and sunny walk on the Cami de Cavalls from Punta Prima to Mahon, the weather changed dramatically when we reached Cala Corb.

Slipping into my civilian outfit.

City of London; the reflection gives the older building an odd look.

Galdar has service 100 from Las Palmas, which speeds things up getting there. Not having paid attention on a previous visit I didn't realise that there was a 3+ hour break with these from 1045 on. The arrival of 1474 to work the 1015 back made for an earlier departure than planned. I have a bit of a soft spot for these, so hopped on. One thing that did strike me, the lack of leg space. The seats must be around 150mm closer together than those experienced on other fleet members, a touch of Ryanair about them. Still, they are still pretty nippy in the hands of a keen driver.

Stuff is happening; stuff not right and so I'm posting in an uncharacteristically out of step, anachronistic way.

This shot, this less than arty still life with jarring colours, walnuts and Atomic knobs is about chains of logic, of cause and effect and how stepping out of logic into chaos distresses everything. Douglas Adams nominated "wars, New York". Today we might add robodebt, Ukraine, Iran, Wieambilla…Don't "get me wrong" — art can and does coexist with logic. Art cannot through personal dismissal subvert logic. It cannot switch off gravity etcetera.

A former Social Security Minister, later Prime Minister will front a Royal Commission today to answer questions about the deeply flawed logic which contrived an artful justification to illegally it seems and in a punitive way, claw back welfare payments by data matching tax and welfare records. This was robodebt — bad logic, chaos and in sad truth a trigger for suicide. Sound logic won't bring them back. But the perversion needs to be explained.

Ukraine and Iran you will know about. Wieambilla has a lower profile and shouldn't be in the news. But it is and it's there because of, it is suspected, some conspiracy theorists, acolytes of the illogical, "cookers" if you wish to be so crude (Australian slang), who have gone off the rails. Now six people are dead and all because logic was abandoned and chaos embraced.

What you have here in this discordant image is at odds with these other things. It is soundly, rigidly, slavishly logical. It is cause and effect; if this, then that.

I choose to support wild creatures. Moneys have gone to the kākāpō, and have done for years. Now I'm getting behind the painted snipe. Free time and other resources pour into my garden and to citizen science. This world needs to be better than the mess we have made of it. It's the only one we have and cookers for all their zeal are not helping.

There's a limit to how far I'm prepared to go. I supplementary feed our birds, don't tidy up so much as to destroy habitat for reptiles, and keep flowering plants for insects beyond what might be a show garden.

But I draw the line at self-service. Berries are ripening now. A pied currawong began pick-your-own the other day. I ought to have been angry, that is, until I noticed two things: the berries were being carried away, not swallowed, and they were carried away by "one-eyed 'Wong", our NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) entitled and quite literally currawong with one eye. She was feeding a baby; a baby so young as to still have its yellow gape. Instead of robdebt, I instituted a diversionary process: feeding her soaked cat food so that she left the berries for me. That worked!

Her place was taken at the berries by another black bird: the unpleasantly ill-mannered male eastern koel — an hideous, indolent bird of low morals, a wastrel bird, a cuckoo making a cuckold of our red wattlebirds. He was not feeding his young. That's not what he does. He was feeding his "lifestyle". His natural yet discordant behaviour will not get my favour. There's that limit to generosity.

Same goes here with these walnuts. Cool weather makes the white cockatoos lazy. They look for the high energy wattle seeds in my trees, fruit, nuts, anything to avoid going a few extra metres to their usual habitat. Today its about 10°C below average. It's Summer and it has both been like this and forecast to not change in the immediate future. Logic says those cockies will be back looking for a hand out. From their spy perches (look up Australian slang "cockatoo") they'll see the little walnut tree. Only now, these nuts, the ones in this discordant image and following the logic that this tree was planted to feed me, not them, these nuts are headed for a delicious black as night, sharp as a harpy's tongue pickle.

That blue "colander" is a repurposed fresh ricotta strainer, the nuts are zero food miles, the coffee engine a thing of delight which sends its spent grounds to compost and no coffee pods to landfill. Here is logic, cause and effect. This image is poor, discordant, jarring, artless. It contains, instead, logical actions to make this world better, less wounded. Can the Ukraine crisis, the Iran situation, robodebt and the illogical tragedies at Wieambilla say the same?

Changing planes and clearing US Immigration at Minneapolis-St Paul International is always a pleasure as they have an excellent air-side Observation Deck with good views of the Eastern runway, which today was the in use for both arrivals and departures. The outside air temperature was -15C and the sun was starting to set giving vivid colours. The brand-new Transavia 737 on lease to Sun Country was a nice surprise.

Two images shot from same perspective, then combined.

Stobart spotters seem to be an odd bunch of people. I posted this elsewhere asking what was unusual about it and promptly received half a dozen responses concerning minor aspects of the livery such as the flags on the air deflector, odd coloured wheels and lack of stripes on the bumper, all of which are part of the factory finish, but every one completely missed the entire extra axle that has been added! The cab of the 4x2 DAF 85CF has been transplanted onto a Scania 6x2 chassis and the model will in due course become part of my fairground fleet.

I had a spare smaller Christmas tree from a bargain Craigslist lot and substituted the big concrete base for a smaller plastic base.

Agents 2.0, Joe & Hank are sharing a pint in the Ammo Arms before their annual high-stakes card game,

"Sorry Joe" said Hank with a grin, "I can't make our regular card game tonight, I am off out with Agent Midori."

"You lucky Rum beggar" whispered Joe under his breath so no one could hear what he said.

In an abandoned farmhouse...

As they say "nothing will change IMMEDIATELY"--remains to be seen what changes are in the offing, however, for surely there will be some.

I have admired SmugMug in the past, but never joined. Maybe, just maybe, this will be an improvement? Fingers crossed. . . . . .

We don't get many days like this anymore.

Turbo 166201 heads past the 'America's' Playing field and with the Malvern hills in the background on 29-12-16.

The working is the 1P40 09.54 Great Malvern to Ealing Broadway service, during the last day of a period of Paddington station closures.

At best only one Turbo visits Malvern each day and that is very late in the day. All the FGW liveried units were repainted by the end of 2023.

I need/want (to) change.

I'll make it happen. I'm just not sure how.

It's kind of funny, because I noticed that, everytime I really really want something, anything to change, I change my hair. Even if it's just a little bit.

Sweet scepticism.

I'm going Coinstar this bad daddy.

First closest guess (to how much Coinstar gives me back) within fiddy cents gets the munneys (via the CoinStar method of payment).

I love Coinstar. It's like a game that everyone wins.

But this time, it's you, the public, who wins.

Please comment your guess here for posterity.

Spoilers abound here!

The fixtures remain but my context has changed. This makes every study abroad unique to the individual and thus invaluable.”
