Behold, the southern California "wasteland." I miss the wilderness, even though it is hotter than usual. The dog days were meant to be over; then suddenly, the strong high pressure aloft parts the clouds, allowing more sunlight to beat down upon the wasteland. This would subsequently lead to less rainfall once again.
Once daylight savings hits, we can all be a bit more confident in the year's cool-down period.
Eine Seltenheit ist es nicht, den Rotköpfigen Schleimpilz (Trichia decipiens) in dieser Formation anzutreffen. Häufig bilden die Fruktifikationen eine relativ intakte Linie und somit auch ein attraktives Motiv. Die schleimige AuĂŸenhaut erschwert die fotografische Darstellung doch erheblich, da es zumeist zu unschönen Reflexionen kommt. Bei dieser Aufnahme war die Beseitigung der Reflexionen schon sehr zeitaufwendig
It is not uncommon to find the red-headed slime mold (Trichia decipiens) in this formation. The fructifications often form a relatively intact line and thus also an attractive motif. The slimy outer skin makes the photographic representation considerably more difficult, as it usually leads to unsightly reflections. In this shot, removing the reflections was very time-consuming.

The station staff at Royston, Herts did a good job in sweeping the snow off Platform 1. It was most unusual to get such a heavy snowfall as early as November. The following month saw further snowfalls, and we seemed all-set for a long and cold winter, but after Christmas the remainder of the 1981/82 winter was mild.
Royston was a busy interchange station during this era. The Great Northern electrification programme only took the wires as far as Royston, and through trains from Kings Cross to Cambridge ceased after 1977. Passengers were required to transfer from the Class 312 EMUs that had been introduced for these outer suburban services to complete their Cambridge journey on a DMU shuttle. This arrangement continued until the Royston-Cambridge section was belatedly electrified in 1987.
