Discovered in 1835, Margate's Shell Grotto is an astonishing find; 21 metres of winding passages decorated with 4.6 million shells. The walls are covered in images of gods and goddesses, trees of life and patterns of whelks, mussels and oysters. Some think it is an ancient Pagan grotto, others that it is simply an ornate Regency folly; but with no definitive explanation or history, the Shell Grotto is Kent's greatest mystery.

Shell is largely completely and overhead is now mounted thanks to a strong crossmember at the back, and 7 total vertical supports, including 1 at the nose. Reminds me of Optimus Prime's head for some reason :-)
The Shell plant in Pernis is probably one of the biggest industrial plants in The Netherlands.
This part of the plant recently had some problems and they are currently rebuilding and repairing it.
For logical reasons the security is very high and they absolutly don't like it when you are taking pics. Oh well, they can't have it all right? I always make sure I am on a public road.

Several Decades ago, the Shell Oil Company, put out a number of card series. They also sold albums to put these cards in. Everytime you went to Shell for petrol, or anything else, they gave you some cards. The idea was to collect the whole lot, and generally they were most obliging in allowing you to go through the box, to get the cards you were missing.
I only have the Transport Card series left, the others have been long thrown out.
I have scanned each page. This is the final part, part 2.
The Shell Collection, which is specially designed for FueraDentro by the dutch designer Jan des Bouvrie, consists of two chairs, a bank sofa, four tables and a sunbed. The fibers of the chairs, sofa and sunbed are made of Batyline and the frames are made of stainless steel. This combination of materials makes the SHELL collection ideal for outdoor use.
The most notable characteristics of the SHELL collection is the rounded shape of the shelllike bucket seat, which brings a stunning sense of shelter. The seatings are carried out in a coaxial structured Batyline® fibre. The frames are made of electro-polished stainless steel and the tabletops are glass.

Another period or theme for Ruth before the nude became so prominent in her work was shells: She was swept away for awhile by shells. It started in New York. One winter in the early 40's her designer father, Lucian Bernhard, told her she looked pale and gave her the money to travel to a seashell show in Florida on Sanibel Island near Ft. Meyers. Ruth must have said, "OK, whatever you say, Papa". She took the prints she had to Florida and after meeting a couple key people was offered a spot in the show. She loved the whole atmosphere and a lady stopped by and bought everything she had for $25 a print (which was big money, then). It was the widow of Thomas Edison, who had an estate called the Seminole Lodge in that area. As a warning here, Ruth wrote to me on the back of this print, "A bad print!". What was she talking about? Probably the hot spot in the middle. She believed the print finalized the idea and thought this one failed to do that.
This is the completed shell minus the leader(fuse) and lift. The outer petal stars are dark comp to green, and the iner petal stars are blue. The burst charge is ricehulls coated 5/1 ratio with homemade ballmilled black powder. About a quarter teaspoon of flash is added to give it a little more bang and help excelerate the stars all the way out so they don't droop. Add quickmatch and 3.5 onces of 2fa black powder and it's ready to shoot. This has 1.5 inches of time fuse giving it between 4 and 5 seconds of lift time. This should put the burst around 700 feet
