Comments always appreciated, as long as you keep it clean - I love to hear your feedback! xx
A taste of things to come for a while at least. With nowhere to go, and no visits from Gemma until April, my photos are mostly glam nights in.
I do like this blue lace dress.

Enderle Center - Tustin, CA
The 1970 Sinthesis 2000 Prototype was created by Tom Tjaarda and Peter Giacobbi. Tom Tjaarda the well-known American designer who made Italy his home in 1960 is responsible for the styling of the Sinthesis. He also designed cars for Pininfarina, Ghia and De Tomaso. Peter Giacobbi also spent his entire life in the automotive industry as an engineer and designer. He began his career in Italy where he developed engine components for Ferrari, Maserati, Lamborghini, Alfa Romeo, Ducati and others. After returning to the United States he was hired by DeLorean Motor Cars as Chief Engineer and built the prototype DMC12 sports car.
The significance of the Sinthesis is that it is a "one of a kind" sports car designed and built with American Engineering and Italian Design; hence the Ying/Yang symbol --- two opposites coming together. The two young men designed their own body, chassis, interior, suspension, glass, wiring and hardware. The design features a water cooled 4-cylinder engine located amidships. The only other car built during that period that shared this configuration was the air-cooled Porsche 550 race car.
The chassis is unique and extremely rigid. Unlike any other car at the time, it has a steel back-bone and stressed side rails. Another unique characteristic of the car at the time is that there are no door-sills, which facilitates ingress and egress to the low-slung sports car. Technologically advanced for its time, the Sinthesis was designed with an opening toward the rear of the front hood that distributes hot air from the radiator to the windshield, thereby reducing the need for wipers and defrosters. The Sinthesis was also the first functional car to have factory installed driver and passenger air bags. (Giacobbi - Tjaarda being the factory)

I felt this was, all-in-all, an extremely nice effort. I'm a bit
surprised it never went into production.

There are magazines and news sources for the general public, and the same has always been true for the people who operate buses. The Museum of Transport Greater Manchester has an extensive archive collection and documents that is used as the source for this Flickr feed, and we have a very large collection of trade magazines and bulletins dating back to the nineteenth century.
These magazines have always been read by owners and managers of truck and bus companies, and therefore they have always included advertisements for complete vehicles, spare parts such as tyres, ancillary equipment such as washing equipment, and parts that one might specify as part of a vehicle order.
This advert dates from the early 1950s and advertises a hard-wearing material for seating. We will note without further comment that the material's brand name is better known today for a very different impermeable product!

Poor girl. Her Mom, Dad, and Grandpa are all math teachers. Both Grandmas and her Aunt are elementary school teachers. It's in her blood. But I know she'll become who she is meant to be, and have all the support and love in doing so.
Today was "Bring your Daughter to Work" day. She had so much fun and wants to know when she gets to come back. The idea for this photo was from Jenni, thanks Jenni! I like the picture in the comments for her reflection. She is so little sitting behind that big desk!

I so loved that black dress that I wore on Sunday night in Lincoln last month, that I decided to have another night wearing it. And it won#t be the last - I can see this one becoming a firm favourite.

My original comment for this photo, written thirty-three years ago, was "Dilapidated property in Coventry Road". If I've got my bearings right, this rank of surviving (but apparently closed) shops is on the north side of Coventry Road in Small Heath, Birmingham. Posters advertise gigs by Ralph McTell and local boys Black Sabbath, among others. The furthest building on the right (with a lighter façade) is a pub on the corner of Bowling Green Road. The vacant plot over the road on the left is where a police station used to stand, according to contemporary street maps. Photograph taken in autumn 1981, possibly November.

I decided to end the month by rolling back the years and having a night in my old favourite pink dress.
A selection of pictures with a touch of naughty about them. 😉

In these unprecedented times it's going to be important to keep spirits up.
I imagine I'll be spending quite a few nights in at home all glammed up. Well, I'm used to it! These are from a night in January.
Take good care. Stay safe and sane! xx
PLEASE, no multi invitations in your comments. Thanks. I AM POSTING MANY DO NOT FEEL YOU HAVE TO COMMENT ON ALL - JUST ENJOY.
In this tower chamber, which was easily heated, Christian IV carried out his correspondence. The room has been preserved, more or less intact, since the time of Christian IV in the first half of the 17th century: the ceiling paintings with scenes from the Italian epic Orlando Furioso, the paintings inlaid in the panels, and the fireplace. However, the wall coverings of green silk printed with gold ornaments date from around 1700.

Sunday is gloomy,
My hours are slumberless
Dearest the shadows
I live with are numberless
Little white flowers
Will never awaken you
Not where the black coaches
Sorrow has taken you
Angels have no thoughts
Of ever returning you
Wouldnt they be angry
If I thought of joining you?
Gloomy sunday
Gloomy is sunday,
With shadows I spend it all
My heart and i
Have decided to end it all
Soon therell be candles
And prayers that are said I know
But let them not weep
Let them know that Im glad to go
Death is no dream
For in death Im caressin you
With the last breath of my soul
Ill be blessin you
Gloomy sunday
Dreaming, I was only dreaming
I wake and I find you asleep
In the deep of my heart here
Darling I hope
That my dream never haunted you
My heart is tellin you
How much I wanted you
Gloomy sunday

Banksia is a genus of around 170 species in the plant family Proteaceae. These Australian wildflowers and popular garden plants are easily recognised by their characteristic flower spikes and fruiting "cones" and heads. When it comes to size, banksias range from prostrate woody shrubs to trees up to 30 metres tall. They are generally found in a wide variety of landscapes; sclerophyll forest, (occasionally) rainforest, shrubland, and some more arid landscapes, though not in Australia's deserts.
Heavy producers of nectar, banksias are a vital part of the food chain in the Australian bush. They are an important food source for all sorts of nectarivorous animals, including birds, bats, rats, possums, stingless bees and a host of invertebrates. Furthermore, they are of economic importance to Australia's nursery and cut flower industries. However these plants are threatened by a number of processes including land clearing, frequent burning and disease, and a number of species are rare and endangered.
Banksias grow as trees or woody shrubs. Trees of the largest species, B. integrifolia (Coast Banksia) and B. seminuda (River Banksia), often grow over 15 metres tall, some even grow to standing 30 metres tall.[1] Banksia species that grow as shrubs are usually erect, but there are several species that are prostrate, with branches that grow on or below the soil.
The leaves of Banksia vary greatly between species. Sizes vary from the narrow, 1½ centimetre long needle-like leaves of B. ericifolia (Heath-leaved Banksia), to the very large leaves of B. grandis (Bull Banksia), which may be up to 45 centimetres long. The leaves of most species have serrated edges, but a few, such as B. integrifolia, do not. Leaves are usually arranged along the branches in irregular spirals, but in some species they are crowded together in whorls. Many species have differing juvenile and adult leaves (e.g., Banksia integrifolia has large serrated juvenile leaves).
The character most commonly associated with Banksia is the flower spike, an elongated inflorescence consisting of a woody axis covered in tightly-packed pairs of flowers attached at right angles. A single flower spike generally contains hundreds or even thousands of flowers; the most recorded is around 6000 on inflorescences of B. grandis. Not all Banksia have an elongate flower spike, however: the members of the small Isostylis complex have long been recognised as Banksias in which the flower spike has been reduced to a head; and recently the large genus Dryandra has been found to have arisen from within the ranks of Banksia, and sunk into it as B. ser. Dryandra. Thus fewer than half of the currently accepted Banksia taxa possess the elongated flower spike long considered characteristic of the genus.
Banksia flowers are usually a shade of yellow, but orange, red, pink and even violet flowers also occur. The colour of the flowers is determined by the colour of the perianth parts and often the style. The style is much longer than the perianth, and is initially trapped by the upper perianth parts. These are gradually released over a period of days, either from top to bottom or from bottom to top. When the styles and perianth parts are different colours, the visual effect is of a colour change sweeping along the spike. This can be most spectacular in B. prionotes (Acorn Banksia) and related species, as the white inflorescence in bud becomes a brilliant orange. In most cases, the individual flowers are tall, thin saccate (sack-shaped) in shape.
As the flower spikes or heads age, the flower parts dry up and may turn shades of orange, tan or dark brown colour, before fading to grey over a period of years. In some species, old flower parts are lost, revealing the axis; in others, the old flower parts may persist for many years, giving the fruiting structure a hairy appearance. Old flower spikes are commonly referred to as "cones", although they are not technically cones according to the botanical definition of the term: cones only occur in conifers and cycads.
Despite the large number of flowers per inflorescence, only a few of them ever develop fruit, and in some species a flower spike will set no fruit at all. The fruit of Banksia is a woody follicle embedded in the axis of the inflorescence. In many species, the resulting structure is a massive woody structure commonly called a cone. Each follicle consists of two horizontal valves that tightly enclose the seeds. The follicle opens to release the seed by splitting along the suture, and in some species each valve splits too. In some species the follicles open as soon as the seed is mature, but in most species most follicles open only after stimulated to do so by bushfire. Each follicle usually contains one or two small seeds, each with a wedge-shaped papery wing that causes it to spin as it falls to the ground.
All but one of the living Banksia species are endemic to Australia. The exception is B. dentata (Tropical Banksia), which occurs throughout northern Australia, and on islands to the north including New Guinea and the Aru Islands. An extinct species, B. novae-zelandiae, was found in New Zealand. The other species occur in two distinct geographical regions: southwest Western Australia and eastern Australia. Southwest Western Australia is the main centre of biodiversity; over 90% of all Banksia species occur only there, from Exmouth in the north, south and east to beyond Esperance on the south coast. Eastern Australia has far fewer species, but these include some of best known and most widely distributed species, including B. integrifolia (Coast Banksia) and B. spinulosa (Hairpin Banksia). Here they occur from the Eyre Peninsula in South Australia right around the east coast up to Cape York in Queensland.
The vast majority of Banksia are found in sandy or gravelly soils, though some populations of B. marginata (Silver Banksia) and B. spinulosa do occur on heavier, more clay-like, soils. B. seminuda is exceptional for its preference for rich loams along watercourses.
