The opposite exercise of my modernized space sets: here is a small vehicle built only with the parts available in 1983. Quite happy with the style, which fits quite well I think with the space sets of that year - but the "dump truck" side evokes maybe too much the corresponding Town sets from this era ^^
More than 3100 people turned out for the No Kings 2.0 Rally in Vero Beach, Florida on October 18th, 2025. One of over 2,700 demonstrations that were held, with at least one protest in every state, and several taking place in other countries in support. This widespread participation highlighted the collective sentiment against fascism and the Trump Administration. Resist!
Thanks for all your continued support and encouragement, favs and invites

On Thursday 12 July 2018, US president Donald Trump, the most dangerous man in the world, was welcomed to the United Kingdom by the British prime minister Theresa May. The following day the streets of London witnessed the biggest protest for over a decade as thousands marched on Trafalgar Square to express their anger at the British government extending a red carpet welcome for Trump.
Protesters pointed out the extreme threat to democracy, to those dependent on welfare, to womens' rights, to civil rights generally and even to the survival of humankind which Trump presents. Such assertions might seem extreme, but they are unfortunately fully justifiable.
As the president of what is by far the richest and most powerful country on earth, Trump has dedicated his term to accelerating the US addiction to fossil fuels and agribusiness, dismantling the Environmental Protection Agency and withdrawing America from the Paris Climate Accords, thereby accelerating global warming and climate change and presenting a huge threat to the continued existence of humankind.
Trump's presidency also marks another dangerous step in the erosion of democracy in the United States. Far from "draining the swamp" as he promised, Trump has surrounded himself with powerful figures from big business, especially major financial institutions such as Goldman Sachs, as well as his friends and allies in the fossil fuel and defence industires.
Government policy, more and more, reflects the direct interests of concentrated private power with the public having less and less influence. At the same time the Trump presidency has allied itself with some of the most ruthless regimes in the world and is profiting from Saudi Arabia's illegal war of aggression in Yemen which has created the world's worst humanitarian crisis. A serious war crime in which Donald Trump and Theresa May are both complicit.
Trump has also been keen to patronise the extreme nationalist constituency in the United States and through preaching a propaganda of fear his presidency has managed to oversee some of the most racist immigration policies ever to be implemented in the United States, targeted almost exclusively at Muslim countries - Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen. Ironically, all of them have been massively destabilized and impoverished by US foreign policy.
He was also responsible for the ruthless decision to separate children from their parents as they cross into the United States from Mexico, in his determination to block immigration from central America, where decades of US illegal intervention, including the CIA funded Contra terror operations in Nicaragua and enforced free trade (under NAFTA or IMF rules) have devastated the region and merely enhanced the power of corrupt corporate elites and drug cartels.
As if this was not enough to worry about, Trump has also authorized a huge increase in both US defence spending and in the US nuclear arsenal, and changed the strategic posture of the US so that nuclear weapons can be used even for offensive operations and even when their use is not required to preempt a nuclear strike by an enemy power.
As any historian of conflict since the Second World War knows, it is only by a miracle that humankind has survived since 1945 without a nuclear war. Now the situation is more dangerous than ever before. Not only are we are now dependent on Trump's extremely unpredictable temperament but also increasingly on automated systems which can easily malfunction.
Trump and Republicans maintain they need to spend heavily on military equipment in order to counter the supposed Russian threat. However they seldom remind the public that the United States already spends almost as much as the rest of the world combined on defence and that Russia's expenditure is far behind both that of the United States and only on about the same level of Saudi Arabia, and spends only 10% of what NATO spends.
It has also to be remembered that it is NATO and US forces which are operating right on the Russian border, not Russian forces on the American border. Russia's defence spending is clearly recognised by academics to be primarily defensive and responsive to US spending. What is desperately needed is a serious international dialogue at the highest level to decrease the danger of conflict, especially the risk of a terminal nuclear war and begin a process of multilateral disarmament.
As seen on the Brooklyn Bridge. People from HUNDREDS of countries around the world walk this bridge every day. The guy is a laughing stock.

EXPLORED #226 - THANK YOU ALL AND OUR AMAZING GOD . . .
I love the late afternoon sun or the early morning sun but because I am not usually out of bed early, then this is my favourite time as by the time I crawl out in the morning the sun has beaten me up and the lovely golden light has been replaced by a more hard white kind of light rather than this golden light.
And so, as the day came to a close, I was presented with this beautiful scene. God, in all His glory and those God's Fingers are magnificent in their beauty. I love the reflections on the water too.
This bay was sown from the air today. I watched two planes working today. Both planes today are Ayres Turbo Thrush and designed for this sort of work. They can also be used to spray or to water dump too!!!
And as the golden sun sinks down below the horizon, it is time for me to slip quietly off to bed to rest my weary head and dream of tomorrow and what is has to bring.
Thank you God for the beauty you have brought to me, for the unexpected gifts that have arrived in this form, and for a great camera to catch them . . . I am extremely blessed as is Rosey too.
God bless you all and may your dreams come true God Willing . . .
Seen at an illegal dumping ground in New Mexico. Depite my disgust over how slovenly people are, I thought this old chair, and the sky behind it, made for an interesting image.

Been down the dump this morning ( or should that be the amenity centre ) and did not expect to come back with anything !! Well I did get a shot -sort of . There was a chap there with a bird of prey on his arm - a Harris Hawk it turned out to be . A quick word with the guy and they were there doing a bit of gull scaring - as they were working he did not want to stop and pose ,but as I got back to the car I grabbed the P&S in my bag and took a couple of quick snaps with a bit of zoom from a distance .
Harris's hawk (Parabuteo unicinctus), formerly known as the bay-winged hawk or dusky hawk, and known in Latin America as peuco, is a medium-large bird of prey that breeds from the southwestern United States south to Chile, central Argentina, and Brazil. Birds are sometimes reported at large in Western Europe, especially Britain, but it is a popular species in falconry and these records almost certainly all refer to escapes from captivity.
The name is derived from the Greek para, meaning beside, near or like, and the Latin buteo, referring to a kind of buzzard; uni meaning once; and cinctus meaning girdled, referring to the white band at the tip of the tail. John James Audubon gave this bird its English name in honor of his ornithological companion, financial supporter, and friend Edward Harris.
The Harris's hawk is notable for its behavior of hunting cooperatively in packs consisting of tolerant groups, while other raptors often hunt alone. Harris hawks' social nature has been attributed to their intelligence, which makes them easy to train and have made them a popular bird for use in falconry.
Glad I chose today to go down the dump !!
40062 is seen dumped at Kingmoor in June 1982 shortly before removal to Swindon Works where it was cut up a year later. It had been in service until November the previous year when it was stopped at Kingmoor depot with a generator fault, the repair not being authorised and it was parked on the other side of the WCML next to where the former Waverley route crossed over, steps leading up to this are visible on the left of the photo.
Taken on 18 October 2014. Checked on 2 March 2015 - it's still there!
Still there - minus cushion - 2 July 2016 ...
