Even though there is a 99.9% certainty that I will never use it, I have decided to try to learn Morse code. People tell me that learning new things and challenging the mind will keep you sharp. 2018/314 365/339
Haven't had a doodle in the old moleskine pad for a long time, so dug it out the boot of the car and scribbled down a code monkey :-D
I was driving the the town of Shiprock on the Navajo Nation when I saw this piece of amazing art on an abandoned business. I am posting this in honor of the Code Talkers of all of the Native Americans that did this important job, and military members who gave their lives for the United States and our allies.
this is another UFO i finished. it's about having to memorize codes for everything nowadays... we are prisoners of the technology.
EFE's rendition of the Greater Manchester 'Standard' in First Manchester 'Tomato Soup' livery. This started life as the standard issue version which carried the fleetnumber 4603, a Wigan allocated vehicle. I wanted to represent later Atlantean 4758 as it was in the late nineties when I drove it at Bolton depot.
One problem encountered was the windows. 4603 had shorter opening hopper windows, whereas 4758 had the longer full length ones fitted. A donor Standard was obtained in the form of a Pennine example and a glazing swap took place.
A photograph I took at Stockport in August 1999 showed the bus carrying advertising for Budweiser beer [I say beer, its more like watered down cat piss!] and a Google image search found that very advert which was saved for further use. Only the girls face was used to create the advert, the bottle came from another search and the text was copied the best I could with what fonts I had available on my coal powered computer and with a bit of trial and error the advert you see was created.
The fleetnumbers are a tad oversize and will be remedied in due course and new destinations will be produced, but those niggles aside I'm happy with the results.
The temp in my vehicle read +1F but the wind out on the Interstate pier made it feel well below zero. The Algoma Montrealais moves into position to unload at Holcim.
I acquired these lighters in Bosnia; the design - rounded corners & simplicity and ease of use - took my breath away...they are little works of art! They have no makers name or country of origin on them, and I have never seen these anywhere else, certainly not in the UK.
