Recycling and waste sector employees have been granted 'key worker' status by the government recognising the key role of recycling and waste operatives. This means they will continue to receive educational and care provision for their children during the coronavirus crisis.
Ashleigh and her colleague pass me in their waste collection vehicle about 7 am each morning. They empty the 3 different recycling bins all along the coastal path. Both always have their protective masks and gloves on, even when they're driving.

Le Concerie di Fez, o Chouara, con il loro odore pungente, le enormi vasche di pietra piene di pigmento e le pelli stese ad asciugare una dietro l’altra, sono famose in tutto il mondo. Qui sono impiegati tutt’oggi i processi utilizzati nel XVI secolo, quando Fez si è imposta come leader nella loro produzione, per trattare le pelli di mucca, cammello, pecora e capra.
The city of Mysore, in the Southern State of Karnataka, is a major incense production center exporting worldwide. A single worker makes thousands of incense sticks a day, but their working conditions are tough. They (mostly women) have to work long hours in very poorly lit rooms, and the repetitious nature of the work and exposure to chemicals for scenting the dipped incense sticks often causes postural, locomotive system and skin problems.

Asphalt-slaves......there is (nearly) nothing manipulated. The colours are real. I just had to shift and tilt the scan a little bit and I corrected the depth of field .....
I never saw this kind of light again (a rainy day with a few seconds of sunlight) One of these days you feel like a mixture of christmas and childrens birthday.......
I posted a few other pics of this session. They are also tagged with "teer" and "asphalt"

This view looks down the stairwell of the Stamp Office in Somerset House. The floor below my location is at ground level with an exit off to the right onto the quadrangle in the centre of Somerset House. At the bottom of the staircase is the workers' entrance, via the lightwell about which I posted a photo yesterday. The decor (and height between floors) changes much for the better once at ground level and above. Note the scrollwork 'S' in the wrought-iron railings, which I assume represents the 'S' in Somerset.... Considering it is over 230 years old, the stone cantilevered staircase seems to have worn pretty well.
Located in the eastern half of the South Wing from 1789, the Stamp Office was responsible for marking all kinds of documents with an official stamp to indicate that the correct tax had been paid. Until 1855 (when the duty on newspapers was removed) every newspaper in the country was brought to Somerset House to be individually stamped here!
From the late 19th century, the noisy stamping machines and presses could be heard by passers by on the Embankment. According to one visitor the basement rooms of the stamping department were far from pleasant, "In these damp, black and comfortless recesses the clerks of the nation grope about like moles... and stamp, sign, examine, indite, doze and swear as unconscious of the revolving sun as many miserable demons of romance condemned to toil for ages in the centre." (Raymond Needham and Alexander Webster, 'Somerset House Past and Present').
In 1834, the Stamp Office was amalgamated with the Tax Office, which was taken over by the Inland Revenue in 1849. Much of Somerset House continued to occupied by tax and stamp offices until the early 21st century, the last elements only leaving in 2013.
