Le palindrome (substantif masculin), du grec πάλιν / pálin (« en arrière ») et δρόμος / drómos (« course »), aussi appelé palindrome de lettres, est une figure de style désignant un texte ou un mot dont l'ordre des lettres reste le même qu'on le lise de gauche à droite ou de droite à gauche, comme dans la phrase « .il y en a plusieurs répartis en France. Le plus ancien étant à Pompei...

And she cost a pretty penny (more than I would pay), but she's a lot of fun. She belongs to my Aunt Linda.

"Ah 007, I've been expecting you!". In this view the palindromic class 700 Siemens Desiro City EMU in the form of 700 007 gently glides its way into platform 2 at West Sutton station on the warm summery early afternoon of Thursday 22nd July 2021 with the 12:53 Thameslink service from Sutton to Wimbledon, Streatham, Tulse Hill, Herne Hill, Loughborough Junction, London Blackfriars, Farringdon, St Pancras International, West Hampstead Thameslink, Cricklewood, Hendon, Mill Hill Broadway, Elstree & Borehamwood, Radlett and St Albans City. The section of this branch line between West Sutton and Wimbledon is a pleasant mix of semi-detached suburbia, vast green parks and recreation grounds with all the stations between West Sutton and Wimbledon Chase having their distinctive 1930 Southern Railway island platforms. The island platforms of the stations on this line are long enough for 12-car trains, although the longest trains I have seen in service on the Wimbledon to Sutton line have been 10-car trains when the old BR class 415 (4 EPB) and class 416 (2 EPB) slam-door EMUs ran on the line back in the 1980s.

ET's Palindromic BARBIE DOLL WAG-5A #21112 honking loudly and blasting through MISROD @ MPS hauling 12061 HBJ-JBP Jan-Shatabdi Express.
What is it about these Palindromic, once-in-a-century, repetitive dates that we find so interesting?
Some believe it is just apophenia - the human urge to see patterns in essentially random events.
The synchonicity is appealing....
Others believe is portends as "auspicious day"; many weddings are planned today; (and if you think a particular date is going to ensure a good marriage - good luck to you - you'll need it !)
Numerologists have their own theories; there's all sorts of interesting mathematic results using 11's:
Did you know that 111111 x 11111 = 1234554321 (that's 11 1's....)
I took the opportunity to record my take on Eleven / Eleven / Eleven:
I raced around when I got home last night collecting objects so that I could photograph "eleven pictures" of "eleven things", but after I created and uploaded the mosaic I realized that I should have tried to compose each group of objects as a square image; you'll have to take my word for it that there are 11 things in each group - even the bottles of wine (though a few are empties...)
I'll try again next year: 12/12/12 is coming !

66066 is the only DB Shed with a palindromic number and recently painted and named 'Geoff Spencer'. It became my 120th example to be captured within the borough of Blackburn working 6M90 Hansons Sidings Avonmouth-Castle Cement. Seen here passing through the 'Vale Of Pleasington' on a dreary Saturday morning and it was the first time the train had run on a Saturday in a few months.

Not everyday a palindrome shows up on the Iowa Interstate, but the 707 has been on the Grimes branch for the last couple of weeks. This morning it's headed east thru Windsor Heights with a LRS empty box car that was previously loaded on the Lake State Railway in Grayling MI.

Class With Daves: The Audit Group ~ Assignment CWD463 "Desserts"
"I’m reminded of one of my favorite Palindromes: Desserts is stressed spelled backwards. Help relieve the stress by giving us an image of a wonderful dessert."
A palindrome is a word ( or number or date) that reads the same from front to back and from back to front

Today’s date, 02/22/20, is a palindrome, it reads the same backward and forward.
Anyway that aside I decided it was time to try out the Panorama on my iPhone. So this is our back yard. I built a playhouse for the Grand Blessings that they enjoyed for about 13 years then along came Hurricane Irma in 2017 that took it down along with our fence. Clara and I decided we would leave the yard open and visit with our neighbors more but the neighbors didn’t agree, and so they replaced our fence with their own and as a result we now enjoy a few hundred feet of free fencing. Maybe they were trying to tell us something.
The other thing we noticed is the palm trees that we bought back around 2005 as “Mini” Palms. They weren’t supposed to get this big. I don’t suppose if we dig them up and return them we could get a refund. So they lied…..but maybe we’ll get some coconuts.

Screen-Pano-Sabotage of the chyron flying by the bottom of a network news show. Panning in same direction as the chyrons movement, right to left. Image duplicated and flipped for a palindrome effect.
jimjOwill has chosen Palindrome as today's topic for the Our Daily Challenge group.
I couldn't find my spirit level so I used the one on my 'phone. It was surprisingly difficult to take a screen shot while the level was at 0.0°
Palindrome. Well the sun was shining, my friend Dave and I met up for a ride, our start coincided with the start of light rain, temp dropped and the wind picked up. We managed a 16 mile ride and about a mile before we finished the sun came out and the temperature went up about 15 degrees. Oh well we were mocked by Mother Nature. Unusual weather is expected on Groundhog Day.

Explored #309!
Palindrome #4!
Hmmm, these are getting fun.The ones I have lined up next are a little less literal, so it'll be interesting to see how I tackle 'em...
