morrismummer @morrismummer.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Today's railway photograph: ornate old sign for the toilets on Ragusa station, Italy. The station was in the process of being modernized so it's probably no longer there, sadly. 160
morrismummer @morrismummer.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Castello Maniace, Ortigia, Siracusa, Sicily. A very strange building, the entire castle interior divided up originally by 32 columns with a massive fireplace in each corner. Badly damaged by lightning striking the gunpowder magazine in 1703. 150

morrismummer @morrismummer.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Today's railway photograph: our train on the ferry between Villa San Giovanni and Messina.

morrismummer @morrismummer.bsky.social · 26/09/2026St Edmund's, Southwold. The flèche on the roof is from the 1867/8 restoration but is apparently a faithful copy of the original, which once held a Sanctus bell. A symphony in flint and stone. #SteepleSaturday 051
morrismummer @morrismummer.bsky.social · 25/09/2026The Trivulzio Diatreta Cup, in the Archaeological Museum in Milan. Fourth century. Glass. The inscription is held clear of the bowl by filaments of glass, and reads: BIBE VIVAS MVLTIS ANNIS, 'Drink and live for many years'. #FindsFriday 0104
