Photo of a pint glass I designed which says, in the appropriate font styling, "YOU WOULDN'T DOWNLOAD A BEER." Obviously, in this economy, of course you would.

Was interviewed by a US journalist today who asked if we were all panicking about terrorists at Fairford, which ended with me trying to explain dogging.

Very much enjoying watching these homegrown chillies ripening as the weeks since I picked them go on.

A string of chillies hanging in front of a wooden cupboard side ripening in my kitchen. Still mostly green but a few are darkening and a few more have passed to bright red.

Not really anything, but while I'm short of funds to make real ones (which is the plan) I thought I'd have a go at making modular city tiles in Tabletop Simulator as I'd already modelled them in Blender. Bit of an protracted argument with the .obj exporter settings but on the move now.

A bare bones gaming table in Tabletop Simulator with some modular city street tiles on in.

Morning. Last week I found out for the first time that Champion The Wonder Horse (stalwart black and white 50s schedule filler up to 1993) was a spin-off. Champion was Gene Autry’s horse, and it was a 1955 cash in on the success of the Gene Autry Show. He’s like horse Frasier.

🧵History tells that St Peter’s Howden began as an Anglo-Saxon foundation, later granted by William the Conqueror to Durham Priory. In 1267 it became a collegiate church, supported by six local parishes, and over the next century grew into one of Yorkshire’s finest buildings. (It has

An Art Deco motorcycle in black and chrome with enclosing bodywork so you can't steady it with your legs.

1930 Henderson KJ Streamline
Collection of Frank Westfall, Syracuse, NY

With its 1,200-cc, 40-brake horsepower, in-line four-cylinder engine, the 1930 Henderson Model KJ Streamline could exceed 100 mph. In an era when streamlining was used sparingly in motorcycle design, American Orley Ray Courtney’s enclosed bodywork was virtually unknown on production two-wheelers (except for a few racing machines), making the KJ an unusual and beautiful example of Art Deco design.

If you like that NYC model there are similar models of London which can be visited for free nla.london/exhibitions (I've seen the City Model before, it used to be used for marketing purposes and I seem to remember that if a company erected a new building they had to provide a scale model of it).

Did I remind all of you in NYC to make sure to take yourselves and your children to see "He Built This City" at the Museum of the City of New York yet? The exhibit closes October 12: www.mcny.org/exhibition/h... - I cannot say enough about this exhibit and I think that you will be amazed. GO!

If you like that film that @berryh.bsky.social posted watch this: An amazing look at maintenance of the Tube at night in 1958. Saw it in Trafalgar Square years ago and have always been captivated by the Inspector, in full suit and hat, riding a modified bicycle with an outrigger along the line. Fab.

Some art reaches the sublime with its simplicity* Like this piece. It just is. And is perfect. That it is simultaneously in a gallery and in the ocean places the viewer at both points as well. The perception of weather and motion in a climate controlled white cube. The possibility of stillness...
