Mark Richards @fellranger.bsky.social · 12/10/2026I wholeheartedly agree. Now cars are egos on wheels. 020 0
Mark Richards @fellranger.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Casts me back to my first car too. I spoke with a friend, a retired farmer now living in Cornwall last week, who had a green 10000 van back in 1966. I envied him as my Mini pickup was even more modest. Nostalgia in spadefuls. 010 0

Mark Richards @fellranger.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Cross Hands guide post set up by Nathaniel Izod in 1669. It points to Gloucester, Worcester, Oxford and Warwick in Roman numerals. Here is my wife with direct descendant Nathan Izod last Thursday. 191 0
Mark Richards @fellranger.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Must assume there are so few because they were predominantly timber-framed structures. Horror of horrors in 1980 a hay-fire inside Bredon burnt the C14th timbers. It is a National Trust building 60p to non-members to venture inside. 030 0
