HMS Victory is a 104-gun first-rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, ordered in 1758, laid down in 1759 and launched in 1765. She is best known for her role as Lord Nelson's flagship at the Battle of Trafalgar on 21 October 1805. Wikipedia
She looks nude without her masts but rot required their replacement. A Victorian farthing was found under the central mast that had been placed there at the time of their last overhaul in the 1860s. As the damage was far more than had been anticipated it is now thought she won't be 'ship shape' again until 2023. Her newly repainted hull takes some getting used to but her colourscheme is now thought to resemble more that used in Nelson's day. I'm sure he'd recognise her no matter what colour she was painted.
She is a 'must see' for every child, young or old, whoever heard the brave tales of Admiral Lord Nelson and dreamt of life aboard a Royal Navy warship of the Napoloeonic War. Even if you didn't, she's a fantastic destination for a day out. The tickets last a year so, despite being expensive, they are worth every penny.

Was out for a brief meet-up and shoot with Rena, a model I've recently been shooting with. Irwin took us to a small restaurant he knows in Shibuya, for a coffee and a chat.
This scene just struck me as very 1950s... that chair, the bottle, the colourscheme.

The acid yellow (or chartreuse) version was my entry in the Spoonflower/ Roostery Tea Towel Contest: Home is Where the Heart Is (and I loved the easy to obey instruction to "Keep it quirky or make it traditional– just be authentic!").
These little houses are modeled on the stone, clay and timber-framed houses of ancient Crete as depicted in found miniature faience plaques. I'm hoping they might suit the ardent archaeologist who needs matching tea towels. In the meantime they are a camping goods present for my friend's new trailer.

Go North East's unallocated ADL Dart SLF 5/ADL Enviro 200MMC 5496 (NK69 FBJ), which carries a two-tone green base livery prior to receiving "Green Arrow" branding, is pictured here in the yard at Saltmeadows Road Depot, Gateshead, prior to entering service. 01/10/19
The region’s largest bus company, Go North East, has invested £1.8 million in 11 brand-new, state of the art, environmentally friendly buses for its popular Green Arrow services.
The buses build on the operator’s existing investment, which has already seen 170 low-emission buses join the fleet in recent years, and a total of £12 million set to be invested in further better buses over the next 12 months.
The new Green Arrow buses, which were built in the north at the Scarborough factory of Alexander Dennis, will be rolled out over the next fortnight onto the company’s 97 route which serves Newcastle, Gateshead, Bensham, Lobley Hill, Whickham, Swalwell and intu Metrocentre with buses running up to every 15 minutes.
With a striking green livery, the buses are packed full of creature comforts and the latest technology including comfortable luxury seating with mobile phone holders, free Wi-Fi, media tables featuring wireless charging pads and at-seat USB charging points. There is also no need to worry about missing your stop, as the buses are fitted with next stop audio and visual passenger information systems.
The seats and interior colourscheme have been re-designed by design agency Creating Desire.

An eight-vehicle swap is taking place between Go North East and East Yorkshire, with four double-deckers transferring each way.
Go North East are in line to receive all four of East Yorkshire's former demonstrator vehicles, numbered 794 - 797 in their fleet, whilst East Yorkshire are to receive four Wright Eclipse Gemini bodied Volvo B9TLs, presently numbered 6118 - 6121 in the North East.
This swap is taking place as 794 - 797 meet the stringent emission standards of the promised Clean Air or Low Emission Zone concepts recently consulted on (as they have Euro 6 engines), whereas 6118 - 6121 do not (as they have Euro 5 engines).
It also standardises the fleet at both companies, with the Wrights bodied Volvo B5TLs being non-standard in the East Yorkshire fleet, whereas they'll be joining a fleet of seven already allocated to Riverside, in the North East.
Volvo B9TLs 6118 - 6121 are also ex dealer-stock, so have a non-standard interior colourscheme and low-back seating, making them unsuitable for use on Go North East's "X-lines" express routes. Prior to acquisition by Go North East, East Yorkshire had already taken a batch of these dealer-stock Volvo B9s, so these additional four should fit in well in their fleet.
All four vehicles being acquired from East Yorkshire into Go North East's fleet will be fitted with Next Stop Announcements, USB charging points, and be fitted with white Hanover LED destination displays. The two Volvo B5s require more extensive refurbishment work, including fitment of new seats re-trimmed into Go North East's new style, prior to entering service.

Don't know where this came from, one minute I was placing blue tiles on my medieval village and the next I was building this out of them. Very random. But now now thinking of making a full size modular town building using this crazy blue colourscheme. Oh and by the way, thats Sky Blue, Medium Blue, Sand Blue, Dark Blue, Mersk Blue, Turquiose and Normal Blue. Lots of blue for a mixed effect. I will probably make the building out of Sky Blue or Turquiose.

More text in numbers: the stripey number '61', in colourful ceramic tiles, on white, edged with black, on a rendered beige front wall.
A fabulous colour scheme in chunky tiles on a plain background. Part of that wonderful stuff you see around you every day: the art gallery of the ordinary!
This ongoing collection of type and text was inspired by the designer PennyCandy (Amy Peppler Adams)'s tutorial on typography; one of Amy's tips is to "Try to choose appropriate typefaces to convey your message. A great way to get in the habit is to observe type around you; it's everywhere!" I set out to see if this was so.

The story behind this cake is so sweet...
When this couple married on New Year's Eve I made their wedding cake, with the design based around the Art Deco pattern on their invitations www.flickr.com/photos/consumedbycake/4257227713/in/set-72...
The groom got in touch a few weeks ago and asked if I would make a replica of the top tier as a birthday cake for his bride - their first birthday celebrated as husband & wife.
Awwwwww!
We agreed on a more summery colourscheme for this birthday cake, and it was lemon cake, filled with homemade lemon curd & zingy lemon buttercream

Since augustus 2020 the Dutch Railways ahs two Vectron locomotives for tere upcoming Nightjet train to Vienna and Innsbruck. Those locomotives came in service in the default Electric Locomotive Leasing (ELL) till the begin of Marc 2021. Since half March 2021 the locomotives are wrapped into the new Dutch Railways colourscheme and are operational in the international train to an from Berling from 22 March till 2 April 2021. The Vectron Locomotives are in service in the IC 141 9Amsterdam 07:00 – Bad Bentheim 09:16) and the IC 240 (Bad Bentheim 10:29 – Amsterdam Centraal 13:00)
Sinds augustus 2020 leased de NS twee Vectron locomotieven voor de Nightjet van Amsterdam anar Wenen en Innsbruck. Tot maart 2021 waren deze locomotieven te zien in de kleurstelling van Electric Locomotive Lease (ELL). Sinds maart 2021 zijn de locomotieven gehuld in de nieuwe kleurstelling van de Nederlandse Spoorwegen. Met deze kleurstelling waren ze voor het eerst operatief op de Intercity Berlijn tussen 22 maart en 2 april. Deze locomotieven zaten in de IC 141 (Amsterdam Centraal 07:00 – Bad Bentheim 09:16) en de IC 240 (Bad Bentheim 10:29 – Amsterdam Centraal 13:00)
Taking cues from the earlier LMS Black 5 4-6-0, the London Midland & Scottish Railway's Stanier 8F became one of the most widespread and versatile freight locomotives ever to work on British Rails. Built with a 2-8-0 configuration, the engines were built between 1935 and 1946 by William Stanier, with freight specifically in mind.
At the time these locomotives were built to replace many of the Midland Railway's former 0-6-0 engines which were the last testament to the small engine policy. Though, as its name implies, the engines were indeed smaller and more flexible for varying operations, under the LMS these highly underpowered locomotives proved to be a substantial thorn in the company's side, with several locomotives having to be used to power a single train. With costs rising, the LMS, in conjunction with Stanier, the company's then Chief Engineer, developed both the Black 5 and the 8F to replace this mode of operation, supplemented by the gigantic articulated Garratt's, and the smaller Fowler 7F's.
For the first few years the 8F was almost exclusively an LMS machine, though it did sometimes wander into other company's territories. Upon the outbreak of World War II however, the engine, being among the most powerful and efficient, was chosen as the standard freight design, and construction boomed. Locomotives were now available for all of the former 'Big Four' companies, with construction taking place at LMS's Crewe and Horwich works, LNER's Doncaster works, GWR's Swindon works and SR's Ashford Works. This was not the first time a standard locomotive had been chosen during warfare, as in World War I, the GCR Class 8K had been given the honour of such an important task. In addition to locomotives built for the Big Four, The War Department had 208 8Fs built by Beyer Peacock and North British Locomotive Company and requisitioned 51 more.
The 8F's success also took it to foreign climbs as well as UK rails, with many allied nations of North Africa and the Middle East also taking on the 8F as their standard locomotive. Countries including Turkey, Egypt, Israel, Iran, Iraq, Italy and Palestine all bought variants of the 8F to work their railways both during and after the war, with some of these foreign 8F's continuing in operation well into the 1980's and 1990's. In fact, seven locomotives, 246-338, 343-345, 354-356, 345, were sunk during shipping to Turkey when the vessel they were transported on, SS Jesmore, collided with Baron Pentland on 16th February, 1941. Another two locomotives were sunk whilst aboard SS Thistlegorm, which was bombed by Crete based Heinkel He 1-11 bombers whilst at anchor near Ras Muhammad in the Red Sea on 6th October, 1941.
Production of War Department examples continued until 1943, when it switched instead to the cheaper WD Austerity 2-8-0 and 2-10-0 locomotives, both of which were derived from the 8F. The 8F itself continued in production until 1946, with 852 examples produced, 331 London Midland and Scottish Railway engines and 245 among the London and North Eastern Railway, Great Western Railway and Southern Railway in 1943-45 for LMS stock, though mostly retained on loan by the other railways during the war. The LNER also purchased 68 Stanier 8Fs for its own use in 1944-46, classifying them O6, though these were also sold to the LMS after the war.
624 8Fs passed into British Railways ownership when Britain's railways were nationalised in 1948. A further 39 (10 requisitioned) were purchased from MEF stock in 1948, and a final 3 (1 requisitioned) from the Longmoor Military Railway in 1957, bringing the total to 666. The 8Fs were concentrated on the London Midland Region, but were also allocated to former LMS sheds on other regions. Despite some having operated in Scotland by the LMS, they were not common on the Scottish Region under BR ownership as the later WD 'Austerity' 2-8-0 and 2-10-0 types were used instead.
The 8Fs were successful and durable locomotives in BR service, with all 666 locomotives surviving until 1960 and routine withdrawals not beginning until 1964. The first to go in 1960 was 48616, followed two years later by 48009. 48773–48775 (the former Longmoor Military Railway locomotives which were the only 8Fs on the Scottish Region) were also withdrawn in 1962, but these were reinstated into London Midland Region stock in 1963. The remaining 664 were withdrawn between 1964 and 1968, with 150 surviving to the last year of steam on BR.
Fourteen 8f's are known to have survived with six LMS/BR locomotives been preserved in the UK, a seventh was used a spares donor for other preserved 8Fs and a number of new build projects. Three members of the class have over the years been repatriated to the UK from Turkey, with one later sent to a museum in Israel. In addition, two Turkish Railway (TCCD) locomotives have been preserved in Turkey, and some more remain there in a derelict state. One locomotive has even survived in Iraq.
Of the fourteen engines known to have survived into preservation, three have seen main line operation: Nos. 48151, 48305 and 48773. These have been regular mainline performers in recent years with 48773 & 48305 being withdrawn from operation in the early 2000s. At present 48151 is the only 8F to be certified for mainline use, despite being limited to only 50 mph (due to her wheel size) she has managed to pull in a few mainline trips in recent years, trips include The Fellsman, Scarborough Spa Express, Waverley, Roses Express & recently The Welsh Mountaineer.
48624 is the only surviving example built for the Southern Railway at Ashford Works in 1943, and after nearly 30 years of restoration work, the engine re-entered service in 2009, wearing an LMS Maroon Livery, a colourscheme no 8F's originally wore as this was only set aside from express-passenger locomotives. It has since been repainted into a more authentic BR Black, and her boiler ticket expires in 2019.
