Mayflower

by: robski

Description: In recent years I have become an anorak and joined the local model engineering society which run a 5" model railway during BST at the weekends. Every couple of weeks a full sized Loco will run from London down to Dover and back on the main line. In this case the Mayflower was running from Worcester to Canterbury and back. Try and take a snap when I can

St Margaret's Church

davet47 — Sat, 27 Sep 2025 10:44:08 +0100

by: davet47

Description: Also known as The Marble Church because of the amount of marble used in its construction. I've driven/been driven past this church thousands of times and never stopped before, so took the opportunity to go there a couple of weeks ago. The door was locked so I had to return to do the interior.

Blood Moon eclipse

by: davet47

Description: All I knew was that there was going to be a blood moon on 07/09/25. Only found out that it was going to be an eclipse as well about 10 mins before it appeared, and that I should have been in the south east of the UK for the best view. My time machine was in for service!

Roll out the barrel

marydoll — Mon, 25 Aug 2025 21:32:03 +0100

by: marydoll

Description: Weeks ago I promised Brian (the man in blue) I'd take photographs for him of the start of his new project. He is an 89 year old artist and had decided to paint this barrel for a gardening group. Barrel had to be moved to his new workshop, the 3 'young' people were among a group moving it. Before going into the building they discovered it was leaking a little whiskey!!!! This is going to be an interesting paint job!!
