The Arrival Of Spring


Yup.   British Summer Time has arrived, and outside, it's bright, warm and cheery.  Heck, I even saw a Red Admiral fluttering around.  So, but on some glad-rags and head out for a Family Photo.

Bonus - Rawlinson End for the uninitiated

How Offices Used To Be

I was trying to explain to some wet-behind-the-ears youngster that offices used to be austere, functional locations, and not cheery, fun-filled "work spaces." He was struggling to comprehend, especially as we were both ensconced in a low grade Teletubbie environment.

Tomorrow, I shall explain with the aid of this slide.

Bonus - A logical puzzle to fill your waking hours.  2048  Seriously, my workplace was paralysed this afternoon. This is game-crack.

Aegean View

The original photographer of this Aegean view (I suspect) made rather a hash of the exposure, and this slide emerged very under exposed. With a bit of processing, we've ended up with quite a pleasant slide, but I doubt whether it's NatGeo Standard.

Bonus - Now THIS is rather fascinating.
The Blood Harvest
 Each year, half a million horseshoe crabs are captured and bled alive to create an unparalleled biomedical technology.

Seems like the slides of a beauty contest are rather popular, so here's another. Maybe I'll look out some from the swimsuit section next.
