To me it looks as if the 1968 Morris Minor 1000 convertible wants to join in with the group at the the coffee and muffin table.
The scene is in Temple Row near to Great Western Arcade in Birmingham.

Begonia Minor ( Minor Begonia )
Begonias are tender perennials, grown for their colorful flowers and foliage. Most begonias can be grown outdoors in pots, in the ground, or in hanging baskets in filtered light and moist, but well drained soil. Where not hardy, grow as annuals or indoors as houseplants. Most begonias can be propagated from leaf, stem or rhizome cuttings in addition to being sown from seed. This bushy begonia has attractive foliage with large, bare leaves. The many flowers are white, and bloom in summer. Stemming is upright and zig-zag between the nodes. This plant enjoys filtered light but can take some sun in winter. Soil should ideally be moist. Begonias grow very well in peat-based compost also.
Important Info : Likes humidity. Does not like cold weather. Pinching tips and pruning outer stems in the growing season gives a bushier plant, good for hanging. Sudden temperature change causes leaves to drop.
Delude Arena Ottawa. Like other arenas it is open for the new hockey season with social distancing and vaccine passes. Last year minor hockey was cancelled

This area of Swindon is becoming a [minor] hotspot for this rare native species. Several sightings over the last 3 or 4 years, originally of males attracted to light traps, have now included a few females with egg masses. They seem to favour garden fences as this one has. The female will die shortly but the eggs will overwinter protected within the 'duvet' of the hairs from the females abdomen! North Swindon, Wiltshire, UK. 2017-07-28.
The Morris Minor in the TV series initially looked very dilapidated. In the final series it had apparently been restored (or replaced by a version in better condition).

When this car was manufactured the BL Group now was in charge of Morris and production of this car was slowly starting to wind down for the all new Morris Marina in 1971
Photographing cars well is something I find difficult, so here I fell back on the detail rather than the whole, which for me works better.
I had wanted to go back and retake this shot, as I felt upon review I wanted a larger depth of field, so wanted to back with my tripod. Unfortunately the weather conspired against me the following nights (windy or wet) and then I had to return the X-T2 I was borrowing. I still like the overall composition, so I'll post the slightly soft version I have rather than nothing at all.
A classic Moggy from 1969, I love the exhaust note of the Minor. Desertmartin Parish Church Garden Fete & Vintage Rally 2025.
Every year, members of the South Wales Morris Minor Owners Club participate in a Poppy Day run.
Seen here at the Newport Transporter Bridge, South Wales prior to their run to St Magdalene's Church in Goldcliffe on the outskirts of Newport for a service.
The weather was unfortunately very wet, but that didn't seem to spoil the event.
Luton, Bedfordshire registered. It looks like I've cut a bit of the front off - but I haven't: it's parked up hard against 2 rusty iron (anti-theft) fence posts that I didn't want in the shot.
I enjoy seeing cars in an unrestored condition.
Nevertheless, I hope that this Minor has a bright futire.
The Queen’s Picture Hall was opened on the corner of Bradshawgate and Trinity Street in 1912. It was the first purpose-built cinema to open in Bolton. The Kinematograph Year Book for 1928 refers to this cinema, on the south side of Bolton town centre, as Queen’s Picture Hall: proprietors Bolton Picture Hall Co. Ltd. ‘Res Man’ G.C. Coop.
In KYB 1931 the name has changed, subtly, to Queen’s Picture House; it has Western Electric sound and is owned by Rialto (Bolton) Ltd. of St George’s Road {i.e. the Rialto Picture Palace on the north side of the town centre}. KYB mentions a “café attached”.
In KYB 1935 the owners, still Rialto (Bolton) Ltd., have moved offices to the Queen’s Picture House. The company address is given as Trinity Street. Seating is listed as 1,480.
By KYB 1954, seating had fallen to 1,300, presumably due to a CinemaScope installation. The Queen’s Picture House was closed in 1966 with “Doctor in Clover”. The building lay unused for three years.
It became the Queen’s Bingo & Social Club on Friday 1st August 1969, but this was not successful and it closed in January 1970. Taken over by new operators, it re-opened as the Queen’s Picture House again on 2nd February 1970, but soon went over to screening Asian (Bollywood) films. It was finally closed in 1980.
Leslie Halliwell in ‘Seats In All Parts’ records finding on an early-1980’s visit to Bolton that the Queen’s Picture House had been demolished. He regarded the Queen’s Picture House as the seminal influence forming his film/movie-related career with Granada TV and then ITV. He describes his first ever cinema visit was to the Queen’s Picture House in 1933: “The fivepenny entrance was at the screen end”, the “heady scent . . of soft plush and worn carpet and Devon violets and sweat”, and “the metallic whirring of . . projectors” which could be heard in Trinity Street through doors left ajar by staff.

(Augusto insegna)
Sanguisorba minor (Salad burnet, Garden burnet, Small burnet, burnet) is a plant in the family Rosaceae that is native to western, central and southern Europe; northwest Africa and southwest Asia; and which has naturalized in most of North America. It is a perennial herbaceous plant growing to 40-90 cm tall, typically found in dry grassy meadows, often on limestone soils. It is drought-tolerant, and grows all year around.
It is used as an ingredient in both salads and dressings, having a flavor described as "light cucumber" and is considered interchangeable with mint leaves in some recipes, depending on the intended effect. Typically, the youngest leaves are used, as they tend to become bitter as they age.
Salad burnet has the same medicinal qualities as medicinal burnet (Sanguisorba officinalis). It was used as a tea to relieve diarrhea in the past.
It also has a respectable history, called a favorite herb by Francis Bacon, and was brought to the New World with the first English colonists, even getting special mention by Thomas Jefferson.
