'I'm hoping that we get along.
It's time for innovation,
It's time for us to make a change.
It's time for a Chinese new year,
It's time for me to make a way.'

You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.

Tbilisi is the capital and largest city of Georgia, situated in the eastern part of the country on the banks of the Kura River. With a rich history spanning over 1,500 years, Tbilisi has been shaped by numerous cultures and civilizations over the centuries. The old part of Tbilisi, known for its charming architecture and unique atmosphere, is one of the most captivating areas of the city. In contrast, the Peace Bridge is a strikingly modern architectural marvel and one of Tbilisi’s most recognizable landmarks. Completed in 2010, the bridge was designed by Italian architect Michele de Lucchi, with lighting by French designer Philippe Martinaud. It spans the Kura River, connecting the old town with the newer districts, and serves as an important pedestrian route and a symbol of the city. The bridge’s design is particularly remarkable, featuring a glass canopy that curves gracefully over the walkway. Often compared to a giant glass wave or a sea creature, the canopy is made of steel and glass and is illuminated at night by thousands of LED lights. These lights create a breathtaking visual display and are programmed to transmit messages in Morse code, conveying universal symbols of life and peace. The Bridge of Peace is not only a functional structure but also a symbolic monument. It embodies the connection between the old and modern parts of Tbilisi and serves as a metaphor for the city’s progress toward peace and unity. The bridge is a popular spot for both locals and tourists, offering stunning views of the city, including the nearby Narikala Fortress and the Presidential Palace.
The Peace Bridge in Tbilisi, Georgia, is located in the heart of the city, spanning the Kura River. Its futuristic design stands in sharp contrast to the surrounding historic architecture, making it a powerful symbol of Tbilisi’s dynamic blend of tradition and modernity.
Tbilisi is de hoofdstad en grootste stad van Georgië, gelegen in het oosten van het land aan de oevers van de rivier de Koera. De stad heeft een rijke geschiedenis die meer dan 1.500 jaar teruggaat en heeft door de eeuwen heen vele invloeden ondergaan van diverse culturen en beschavingen. Het oude gedeelte van Tbilisi, bekend om zijn charmante architectuur en unieke sfeer, is een van de meest fascinerende delen van de stad. De Vredesbrug is daar in tegen erg modern. Een modern architectonisch wonder en een van de meest herkenbare bezienswaardigheden van de stad. De brug, voltooid in 2010, is ontworpen door de Italiaanse architect Michele de Lucchi, met de verlichting ontworpen door de Franse lichtontwerper Philippe Martinaud. De brug overspant de rivier de Kura en verbindt de oude stad met de nieuwere wijken. Het is een voetgangersbrug en dient als een belangrijk symbool voor de stad. Het ontwerp van de brug is bijzonder opvallend, met een glazen overkapping die sierlijk over het wandelpad buigt. Deze overkapping, die vaak wordt vergeleken met een gigantische glazen golf of een zeewezen, is gemaakt van staal en glas en wordt 's nachts verlicht door duizenden LED-lichten. Deze verlichting creëert een adembenemend visueel spektakel en is zo geprogrammeerd dat het boodschappen in morsecode uitzendt, waarbij universele symbolen van leven en vrede worden weergegeven. De Vredesbrug is niet alleen een functioneel bouwwerk, maar ook een symbolisch monument. Het staat voor de verbinding tussen het oude en het moderne deel van Tbilisi en is een metafoor voor de vooruitgang van de stad naar vrede en eenheid. De brug is een populaire plek voor zowel de lokale bevolking als toeristen en biedt prachtige uitzichten over de stad, waaronder het nabijgelegen Narikala-fort en het presidentiële paleis. Het futuristische ontwerp van de brug contrasteert sterk met de historische architectuur eromheen, waardoor het een symbool is van Tbilisi's dynamische mix van traditie en moderniteit.

Who would have thought that when I got that spectrum nearly 30 odd years ago we would be in the place we are now with iPads/Phones etc. What is going to happen in the next 30 or will innovation slow down... I hope not.

Platform 6 at Purley station has recently gained three posters celebrating people who had local connections to Purley and Croydon. The posters are titled 'Welcome to Purley, Croydon', 'Innovate' and 'Inspire' and celebrate Amy Johnson, Samuel Coleride-Taylor and William Jessop.
The artworks were commissioned by Purley Business Improvement District and were made by local artists Kevin Zuchowski-Morrison, Dan Cimmermann and Morgan Davy.
Amy Johnson achieved worldwide recognition when, on 5th May 1930, she became the first woman to fly solo from the now closed Croydon Airport to Australia. Flying G-AAAH Jason, she landed at Darwin, Northern Territory on 24 May.
The composer Samuel Coleridge-Taylor was brought up in Croydon. He studied at the Royal College of Music. After completing his degree, Taylor became a professional musician, soon being appointed a professor at the Crystal Palace School of Music; and conducting the orchestra at the Croydon Conservatoire.
In 1801 Civil Engineer William Jessop was appointed Chief Engineer of the horse drawn Surrey Iron Railway from Wandsworth to Croydon. In 1803 the next phase of tramway was authorised south from Croydon towards Merstham and Godstone. Jessop was again appointed Chief Engineer. The line reached Mestham but was never continued to Godstone.

If there are "drive-throughs" for cars these young horsemen are probably right to expect "Ride-throughs" for them as they line up for their burgers and chips at the horse fair!
