Not only are the lightpoles hanging backwards to compensate for the weight of the catenary, the (chartered) tram is also well back from the actual terminus Amstelstation. © Henk Graalman dec1970
The sun pop out briefly yesterday, but only just after it had rained. Managed to get down to the beach just before it went behind the clouds again. This week has been wet, cold and windy here along with the rain. This time last year it was alot warmer. Will catch up tomorrow if I can get out work on time :)

Conceived by Ford product manager Donald N. Frey and championed by Ford Division general manager Lee Iacocca, the Mustang prototype was a two-seat, front-mounted engine roadster. This would later be remodeled as a four-seat car penned by David Ash and John Oros in Ford's Lincoln–Mercury Division design studios, which produced the winning design in an intramural design contest instigated by Iacocca. To cut down the development cost and achieve a suggested retail price of US$2,368, the Mustang was based heavily on familiar yet simple components. Much of the chassis, suspension, and drivetrain components were derived from the Ford Falcon and Ford Fairlane (North American). Favorable publicity articles appeared in 2,600 newspapers the next morning, the day the car was "officially" revealed. A Mustang also appeared in the James Bond film Goldfinger in September 1964, the first time the car was used in a movie.
Original sales forecasts projected less than 100,000 units for the first year, but in its first eighteen months, more than one million Mustangs were built.

I can't remember whether it was Evan or Christian, but someone pointed out that this car shouldn't have GT stripes, because it's not actually a GT.
So this is what it looks like without, thanks to my (somewhat poor) photoshopping skills.

What goes up - must come down.
Mrs Mail and I were walking along near the river in the city, and a young kid and maybe his big brother were running around, when suddenly the little guy ran over to a light pole and shimmied up to the top.
Big Bro didn't seem the least concerned.
I asked Big Bro if I could take his photo, and he said sure.
As I was lining up the shot, I called out "Give me a wave" then suddenly realised that he would have to let go with one hand to do that, so took the camera away from my eye, and yelled "No don't let go, hang on with two hands"
I didn't want to feel responsible for the little guy crashing to the ground.
As I looked back through the view finder, guess what I saw.
This guy was like a native up a coconut tree, and I have never seen anything like it before.
PS: I added a tight crop of the kid below.
