Scenes at Flamingo Park, home to London’s oldest football club, Cray Wanderers, founded in 1860 as they beat Chippenham Town 3-0 in the FA Cup Third Qualifying Round, equaling their best ever FA Cup performance. It’s next door to Mulligans Sidcup with dinosaur-themed golf courses #grassrootsfootball

Connoisseur of sunsets? Apparently Martin Parr used to tell young photographers not to take sunsets as they all look the same. But I’ll never be mistaken for Martin Parr, and early October has brought a prime crop in London. Here’s Paddington and Kentish Town

Visited the Design Museum in Milan, and among other beautiful things, I loved this small spot dedicated to one of my all time favourites: the Lettera 32, a Portable Typewriter designed by Marcello Nizzoli for Olivetti in 1963. Happy to have one that bought second handed a couple of years ago!
Exhibition display booth with three Lettera 32 typewriters in different colours (green, broen, and green). In the backgroud, three beautiful posters designed by Giovanni Pintori.Close up of the same exhibition display booth with the green Lettera 32 posrtable typewriter. In the backgroud, two beautiful posters designed by Giovanni Pintori.The complete exhibition design booth. It is a bit narrow, with the three portable typewriters at the center, three posters designed by Giovanni Pintori and an explanation text in the background. On the lateral panels, painted in yellow, some other posters and more info about the design.My very own Lettera 32 occupaying its place in a black bookshelf. It has a page with a poem coming out og its platen. On its side there are four small books with colourful covers.

Sunset over the London Stadium before the sun set on West Ham's League Cup campaign. Reality bites after the 6-0 Wrexham game. Fulham controlled the midfield & Palacios & Robinson ran the game. We equalised twice & Pablo finally scoring was brilliant. We had 3 late chances, but Fulham deserved it.
