You cannot beat a free flight display from a Spitfire from your back garden can you?
This image is a screenshot from the Flightradar24 app, featuring a photograph of a vintage military aircraft flying against a clear, light-blue sky.

### **The Aircraft**
The plane is a historic Supermarine Spitfire fighter aircraft, depicted banking slightly to the left. 
* **Colors & Camouflage:** The upper body is painted in a desert camouflage pattern consisting of alternating patches of sand-yellow and earth-brown. The underside of the plane is a light-blue grey. 
* **Propeller:** It features a four-blade black propeller with yellow tips and a bright red nose cone (spinner). 
* **Cockpit:** A pilot wearing a dark flight helmet is visible inside the clear, enclosed cockpit canopy.
* **Markings:** On the fuselage side, the bold white letters **"EF"** appear to the left of a classic RAF roundel (concentric circles of yellow, blue, white, and red), followed by a white **"F"** to its right. Near the tail, the registration number **"LZ842"** is printed in black. The tail fin features a vertical red, white, and blue fin flash.

### **Overlay and Text Elements**
* **Top Banner (Dark Grey Background):**
  * Left: The registration **"GCGZU"** in large yellow text, next to a blue tag containing **"SPIT"** in white. Below this, **"Private owner"** is written in white.
  * Right: The white and yellow **"flightradar24"** logo, alongside a yellow star icon with a padlock, and a white close ("X") button.
* **Bottom Overlay:**
  * Left: The photographer credit **"© Giorgio Varisco"**

Seeing lots of COVID minimizing / memory-holing in the U.S. lately. A reminder of what it was like at its worst here in Alberta: "The deadliest week came right around Christmas [2020]. From Dec. 21 to 27, the novel coronavirus was claiming 24 lives per day across the province. One death per hour."

Sad to hear of the loss of L7's Jennifer Finch
A musician kneels on one knee on a stage, her left foot flat on the ground and barefoot, holding a black bass guitar upright. She has long, dark hair with vibrant pink and purple highlights and a soft smile. Her right wrist is adorned with gold bangles, and her left foot's toenails are painted blue. The stage is bathed in atmospheric purple and blue lighting. In the background, a 'BLACKSTAR' amplifier and parts of a drum kit are visible against a blurred, textured wall, evoking a live performance vibe.

On this day in 2010, Rage Against the Machine played an historic free concert in London to celebrate the track 'Killing In The Name' becoming the UK Number 1 single 📸 : @tracyh.bsky.social
A high-energy, wide-angle shot of Zack de la Rocha performing at an outdoor music festival in London, England.

The main subject, leaning forward in a dynamic crouch on a black stage monitor, sings passionately into a black microphone. He has voluminous, curly, dark hair and is wearing a rust-red, short-sleeved button-up shirt, dark grey pants, and dark sneakers. The monitor wedge under his foot is outlined with a strip of bright neon-green tape. 

To the right, on the stage, several crew members and onlookers stand in the shaded wings near stage equipment and a tall, white fabric stage structure. An empty silver microphone stand is positioned nearby. 

To the left and stretching far into the background is an enormous, densely packed crowd of spectators. The venue is outdoors, framed by lush green trees on the left, with white event tents and a brick building visible in the distance. The sky overhead is a cool, overcast blue-grey, suggesting dusk or an overcast day. The overall atmosphere is intense and lively, with a cool color palette punctuated by the warm red of the singer's shirt. Photo taken by Tracy Morter.

Well there's a surprise...NOT 'An Essex Reform UK councillor who was elected last week has resigned and has been expelled from the party'
A close-up photograph shows several Reform UK political rosettes scattered across a dark, smooth surface. The central rosette is in sharp focus, while the others in the background are softly blurred, creating a shallow depth of field.

Each rosette is made of pleated satin ribbon in two layers: a white outer ring and a bright, light blue inner ring. In the center of the rosette is a white circular badge featuring a light blue arrow pointing to the right. Inside the arrow, the words "REFORM UK" are printed in bold, black, sans-serif capital letters.

Two long, flat ribbons trail down from the bottom of each rosette, echoing the white and light blue color scheme. The lighting is soft and reflective, highlighting the silky texture and sheen of the ribbon material against the dark background.

That's the first time ever I've cheered an Arsenal goal, and the first time ever I've breathed a sigh of relief that a last minute equaliser against them was disallowed. I'm a Chelmsford Spurs fan, there are a lot of us who probably dislike West Ham more than the gooners. This scenario is a one off!
