Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3FA7WXB - Digital Senior Railcard displayed on a smartphone resting across a printed British railway timetable, illustrating how passengers aged 60 and over can plan rail journeys while using a digital Railcard to reduce the cost of train travel in Great Britain. The personalised card is shown in the Railcard app with holder photograph, name, validity information, QR code and National Rail branding visible on the phone screen, while timetable columns beneath reinforce the journey-planning theme.
A Senior Railcard gives eligible passengers one third off most Standard and First Class Anytime, Off-Peak and Advance fares, subject to ticket conditions and time restrictions. It currently costs £35 for one year or £80 for three years, with the three-year version available online. Digital Railcards can be stored on compatible smartphones or other devices, allowing travellers to carry proof of entitlement without needing a separate plastic or paper card.
The image combines traditional printed railway information with modern mobile technology and can illustrate rail journey planning, cheaper train fares, digital ticketing, retirement travel, public transport affordability, domestic tourism and the cost of living. It is suitable for editorial coverage of National Rail, fare increases, concessionary travel, smartphone apps, sustainable transport, rail policy and the changing way passengers buy and validate discounted tickets. Senior Railcard holders can use the discount for both short and long-distance journeys throughout Great Britain, although morning restrictions apply to some journeys made wholly within the London and South East Network Railcard area. The juxtaposition of a paper timetable and smartphone also symbolises the transition from traditional railway information to app-based travel planning, mobile ticketing and digital passenger services on the modern British rail network. It also reflects increasing use of mobile technology by older rail passengers.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2KDKG4J - Rainy, overcast view of the Warrington Fir Grove Hotel on Knutsford Old Road, Grappenhall, Warrington, Cheshire, England, with its large turquoise roadside sign advertising wedding and conference suites, restaurant and bar, and the hotel building and parked cars beyond. The hotel became the focus of a local political dispute in November 2022 after the Home Office planned to use it to accommodate families seeking asylum. Warrington South Conservative MP Andy Carter said he would raise the decision in Parliament and criticised the Home Office over consultation with residents and local services. Warrington Borough Council also opposed the decision and explored possible legal and planning options, although King's Counsel advised that an immediate challenge was unlikely to succeed. Contemporary reporting said the hotel had 54 rooms and a maximum planned occupancy of 79 guests. The episode became part of the wider national argument over asylum accommodation, hotel costs, irregular migration and small-boat crossings of the English Channel. By 2026 the Labour government had reduced the asylum-hotel population and closed a proportion of hotels, while committing to end hotel use during the Parliament. However, claims that Labour had already drastically reduced small-boat arrivals need qualification: official year-ending March 2026 figures recorded 39,271 small-boat arrivals, 3% higher than the previous year, although arrivals began falling later and April to June 2026 were substantially lower year on year. Reform UK's 2026 Operation Fortress policy proposes Royal Navy-led interception of small boats and returning those aboard to France or Belgium, alongside a much tougher approach to inadmissibility and removal. The contrasting approaches make sites such as Fir Grove a useful documentary image for changing British debates over asylum, borders, public spending, local consultation and immigration policy.

An angry Warrington South MP Andy Carter says he is going to raise the Home Office decision to allow asylum seekers at the Fir Grove Hotel at Grappenhall in parliament in the coming week.
Mr Carter yesterday held a number of meetings to understand the legal options available to Warrington Borough Council, which also opposes the decision.
He said: I held a number of meetings yesterday to understand the legal options available to the Council in terms of challenging decisions taken by the owners of the hotel and to gain more information from the Home Office and their plans for this site.
In discussions with Home Office officials, I have been advised that the cohort planned for accommodation this site will be families with children. Prior to arriving in Warrington the refugees will have been processed at centres elsewhere. The hotel has 54 rooms and a maximum occupancy of 79 guests in total.
The advice received from Kings Counsel was that an immediate legal challenge to this decision to use this site for Asylum Seekers would be unlikely to succeed, not least due the incredibly short timescales before the asylum seekers arrive in Warrington and the location of the owners of the site. Other local authorities are however pursuing legal routes related to planning legislation and a change of use requirements, which I am monitoring.

OPENING an asylum centre at a Warrington hotel without consulting residents was 'simply not acceptable'.
Warrington South MP Andy Carter raised his concerns in the House of Commons on Monday afternoon during an urgent debate on the migrant crisis.
He was among a large number of MPs grilling immigration minister Robert Jenrick on the fall out of the problems at the Manston Migrant Centre in Kent.
Thousands of migrants have been placed in temporary accomodation since then to relieve the pressure Parliament was told.
Mr Carter said on Thursday he was notified by the Home Office that the Fir Grove hotel in his Warrington South constituency would 'become an asylum centre the following day' and said no talks were held with the council.
He added: It's in the middle of a residential area, less than 200 yards from a primary school.
I'm sure (Mr Jenrick) would agree with me that it's simply not acceptable for the Home Office to steamroll ahead on a decision like this without the necessary consultation with local residents.
After Conservative former minister Paul Maynard raised concerns about the use of a hotel in his Blackpool North and Cleveleys constituency, Mr Jenrick said: I appreciate that Blackpool is one of those areas that has borne a disproportionate burden from this issue for a long time.
So if there is a way we can ensure that individuals are dispersed from Blackpool more swiftly than other parts of the country, then I'd be happy to look into that.
Mr Jenrick added 'deterrence' has to be part of the UK's approach, suggesting good-quality hotels could act as a 'pull factor' for people thinking of crossing the Channel.
The population at the Manston Migrant Processing Centre is back below 1,600 with 'over 2,300 people being placed in onward accommodation', Mr Jenrick said.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AYHJ9T - The original statue of Dr Salter seated on a bench, was stolen, presumably for the value of its bronze, in November 2011. The Salter Statues Campaign group raised £60k, which Southwark Council matched, to pay for replacement statues, and these were unveiled on 30 November 2014.
A Salter Memorial Lecture is promoted by the Quaker Socialist Society each year as a fringe event at the Britain Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers).
Alfred Salter (16 June 1873 “ 24 August 1945) was a British medical practitioner and Labour Party politician
Salter was born in Greenwich in 1873, the son of W H Salter. Following education at John Roan School, Greenwich, he went on to study medicine at Guy's Hospital, London
While at the Bermondsey Methodist Settlement, which had been established by Rev. John Scott Lidgett, Salter set up mutual health insurance schemes and adult education classes on health matters. In 1900 he married Ada Brown, who shared his political and social views
In the year of his marriage he established his medical practice in Bermondsey, and the couple worked together in trying to alleviate the effects of poverty in the largely working class area. He chose to offer services free to those who could not pay.[4] This work was to lead the establishment of a pioneering comprehensive health service in the area
Salter decided that by entering politics he could effect changes to the squalid environment in Bermondsey far more quickly and profoundly than he could outside the political arena. He was elected to Bermondsey Borough Council in 1903
In the 1922 general election he was again nominated as Labour candidate for Bermondsey West. Salter secured 7,550 votes, a majority of 2,325. His wife Ada, as mayor of the borough, was the returning officer who declared him elected. According to Fenner Brockway, the anti-war activist, Salter in his youth was known as the Settlement firebrand “ militant Republican, militant Socialist, militant Agnostic,etc

Follow me on Twitter twitter.com/HotpixUK
\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
'Rome Wasn't Built in a Day' is a song by an English group Morcheeba released in 2000 as the first single off their third studio album Fragments of Freedom. The song is the group's biggest hit in the United Kingdom, where it peaked at number 34 in 2000. The song reached number two in New Zealand.
At some point in the mid-1990s, the Godfrey brothers (DJ Paul Godfrey and multi-instrumentalist Ross Godfrey) recruited Skye Edwards as vocalist, during a chance meeting at a party in which both brothers were introduced to Edwards. This led to the formation of Morcheeba.
The band's debut album, Who Can You Trust? was released on China Records in April 1996 and fitted smoothly into the then-modish trip hop genre, with instrumentation based predominantly around Rhodes piano, electric guitar and DJ scratching, with the songs carried by Edwards' relaxed soul-styled vocals.
The follow-up, 1998's Big Calm, moved slightly away from trip-hop towards a more pop-oriented, song-based sound. This was exemplified by the band's remaking of 'Moog Island' (a song from the previous album) in a more summery, upbeat style, with the new title of 'The Music That We Hear'. One of the album's singles, 'The Sea', became a hit and a radio favourite. The album proved to be a big seller and ensured Morcheeba's success as a breakthrough act.
In 1998, Morcheeba collaborated with Hubert Laws to record for the Red Hot Organization's compilation album Red Hot + Rhapsody, a tribute to George Gershwin, which raised money for various charities devoted to increasing AIDS awareness and fighting the disease.
In 2000, Morcheeba released their third album, Fragments of Freedom. This repeated the sales success of Big Calm but received a less positive critical response. The band's fourth album, Charango, was released in 2002, and spawned several singles including 'Otherwise,' 'Way Beyond,' and 'Undress Me Now'. In an indication of what would follow, several tracks on the album did not feature Edwards, and were instead written with and sung by Lambchop's Kurt Wagner or by emcees Pace Won and Slick Rick.
Rome wasn't built in a day is a way of saying 'It takes a long time to create something complicated or impressive'. No-one can argue with the impressiveness of Rome or how complicated it can be to cross the road in town. Its one of my favourite cities.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2BEW1FR - A signalman or signaller is an employee of a railway transport network who operates the points and signals from a signal box in order to control the movement of trains.
Contents
The first signalmen, originally called Railway Policemen (leading to the nickname of 'Bobby'), were employed in the early 19th century and used flags to communicate with each other and train drivers, and hourglasses for the purpose of Time Interval Working between stations.
Additional duties
It was a signalman's duty to check each train that passed their signal box, looking for the red tail lamp exhibited on the trailing vehicle, the sighting of which confirmed that the train was still complete, and thus the section was clear.
Each train movement was logged, by hand, in a Train Register Book, and it was normal practice to provide a special desk to support this sizeable book. As well as train movements, every communication between signalmen and adjacent signal boxes via bell codes (when accepting trains or dealing with a token) was logged.
Technological advances including mechanical fixed signals in the 1840s, the electric telegraph and block working in the 1850s, and proper mechanical interlocking from 1856, allowed safer, more expeditious train working, and more complicated track layouts to be controlled single-handedly. The advent of such technological advances gradually led to the provision of an enclosed workspace known as a signal box, signal cabin or interlocking tower.
The principles of British-style railway signalling have changed little since the Victorian era and early 20th century. Modern technology has generally reduced the labour required per train movement. In many cases, a switch, button or computer command is used to alter the lie of points and control signals. Although many classic mechanical signal boxes remain in use, these are gradually being replaced by modern power signalling systems on most railways. The heartlands of British-style railway signalling could be said

A wider reading of the photograph includes urban change, period detail, built environment, waterborne travel, visual archive, regional rail, mass transit, trackside infrastructure, regional identity, station environment, blue-green infrastructure, towpath landscape, historic transport corridor, and commuter travel. From a 2025-onward perspective, the scene also connects with heritage conservation, flood resilience and the value of canals and rivers as blue-green corridors. Today's wider story includes public ownership, rail reform and the practical question of linking trains more effectively with buses and trams. The archival value lies partly in recording transport arrangements and public activity around South Pier Road, Ellesmere Port, Cheshire, England, UK, CH65 4FW before changed technology alters the character of the place. Other connected aspects are industrial waterway history, navigation engineering, inland navigation, rail mobility, boating network, community identity, social history, and before-and-after reference.

New York based DJ Andy Butler (assisted by Kim Ann Foxman) is behind 'Hercules &
Love Affair'. This single 'Blind' featuring guest Antony Hegarty (lead vocalist in Antony &
The Johnsons) and was released March 2008.
Andrew Butler, began his musical career at 15, DJing in a Denver leather bar run by a hostess called Chocolate Thunder Pussy. He then moved to Brooklyn, in order to attend Sarah Lawrence College. According to Butler: 'I\u2019ve been writing songs since childhood. I made music for dance performances in college (where he studied under Corky St. Clair), like a remake of Gino Soccio\u2019s \u2018Runaway\u2019 done in the style of Kraftwerk.
I am so glad thats cleared up then!

------------------------
The Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB) was founded by Thomas Rhodes Armitage, a successful doctor who suffered from eyesight problems.
In 1868 Dr Armitage founded an organisation known as the British and Foreign Society for Improving Embossed Literature for the Blind. This later became the British and Foreign Blind Association. In 1875 Her Majesty Queen Victoria became the organisation's first patron.
The organisation received a Royal Charter in 1948, and changed its name to Royal National Institute for the Blind in 1953. RNIB's vision is of a world in which blind and partially sighted people enjoy the same rights, freedom, responsibilities and quality of life as people who are fully sighted.

A lot of people mistakenly regard the Liberals as the new kids on the block these days, while in reality at core they were the old guard with the Tories back in the late victorian era. When the left wing Labour party arrived, quite soon ping pong between Tory and Labour administrations have ensued.
While many councils are liberal led, however the first past the post system is an unfortunate barrier to seeing a majority liberal party prime minister at Westminster. One which the two main parties may be reluctant to dismantle if a hung parliament results tonight and Nick Clegg assumes his role as 'Kingmaker'.

George is heir to the Osborne baronetcy (of Ballentaylor in the County of Waterford, Ireland). This makes him a part of what is known in Ireland as the Ascendancy, the old Anglo-Irish aristocracy. His father, Sir Peter Osborne, 17th Baronet, is co-founder of the fabric and wallpapers designers, Osborne &
Little. Osborne's wealth is estimated at \u00a34.3m by the New Statesman www.newstatesman.com/uk-politics/2009/10/oxford-universit... . He is also reported to be next in line to inherit a substantial share of Osborne &
Little, his father's luxury wall\u00adpaper company, which is thought to be worth over \u00a31 billion. so he would fit well in one of Britains safest Tory seats here in Tatton. Hopefully he would look to the needs of his constituents lower down the social ladder, customers of Cheshire Peaks &
Plains Housing Trust, Contour Homes or Great Places Housing Group as well as the more affluent.
After achieving an upper 2nd class degree at Magdalen College at Oxford University and being a member of the Bullingdon Club, a private dining club of Oxford University students (which was 'infamous for riotous behaviour' and was open only to sons of aristocratic families and the wealthy. Osborne's friends David Cameron and Nat Rothschild were also members of the club), he tried to persue a career as a journalist, but then moved to a vacent position at Conservative Central Office. he cut his teeth on the Prime Minister's Questions team for the various Conservative incumbent leaders Hague, Howard and cameron. Indeed, Osbourne and Cameron are godfathers to each other's children, so this may make his position safer.
The graffitti is interesting as it suggests a Europe leaning overtone, one that tories would rarther hide under the carpet for the moment. How palitable would a referendum on leaving the EU? Marginal if that.
Having said that, its looking more like a hung or balanced parliament might be imminent. We in Britain could be heading for Cleggagedden, whatever that means. Personally, I would like the best of all worlds if possible. The best of the free market and the social conscience with a respect for the environment and each other. If I see that with proportional representation or a (well) 'hung parliament' then so it must be.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4578869286 - 'Bob is the handy man at the Blakemere Craft Centre, Sandiway Cheshire. I spotted his lovely beard and got chatting to him. He has had his face fungus now for well over 20 years. On one occasion when he had it shaved off at the barbers he was so unrecognisable that his next door neighbour thought he was a burgler, who had climbed into the back garden! He was simply unrecognisable!
Bob does alsorts around the centre which has now grown into quite a multi-faceted complex. There is even a working Brewery making traditionally crafted cask ales on the site. Yep I do have a nose for that kind of stuff!
In the course of history, men with facial hair have been ascribed various attributes such as wisdom and knowledge, sexual virility, masculinity, or high social status
and, conversely, filthiness, crudeness, or an eccentric disposition. In many cultures, beards are associated with nature and outdoorsmen. I remember in my mis-spent youth enjoying the band ZZ Top, strangely the only member of the band without a beard is in fact called Frank Beard (credited as Rube Beard on early LP's). However it must be said that he did in fact sport some facial hair, generally only a trimmed mustache.
In 1984, the Gillette Company (one of the worlds largest razor manufacturers) reportedly offered Gibbons and Hill (the bearded members of ZZ Top) $1 million each to shave their beards for a television commercial. They allegedly declined, saying 'We're too ugly without 'em'. Apparently the name came from blues guitar master B. B. King. The band had planned to call themselves ZZ. King, but felt it was too similar. Since B.B. King was at the 'top', they settled on ZZ Top.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4566257143 - 'Impaled Existence is a 5-piece progressive, melodic death metal band from North Wales, UK. Forming in 2004, the band has grown and matured into a finely tuned combination of brutality and melody. With songs 'Betraying The Human Condition' and 'A Thousand Armies Strong' the band shows off it's more aggressive and progressive side with devastating riffs, finger-licking bass, pounding double-bass footwork and ear-shattering vocals. Showing their diversity, songs 'The Last Tempest' and 'In Reveries' demonstrate the band's more melodic side.
Influences Range from various metal bands, brutal and melodic, such as: Whitechapel, In Flames, Scar Symmetry, Origin, Textures, Fear Factory and Dream Theatre, just to name a few.
Impaled Existence have played with: Swallow The Sun, Suicide Silence, Annotations of an Autopsy, As Blood Runs Black, Born of Osiris, Abilgail Williams and many more. The band add Decapitated, Kataklysm &
Man Must Die to this list in 2010 with many more exciting prospects.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4565205208 - 'Jaguar was founded as the Swallow Sidecar Company by Sir William Lyons in 1922, originally making motorcycle sidecars before switching to passenger cars. The name was changed to Jaguar after World War II due to the unfavourable connotations of the SS initials. It was aquired by Ford in 1989 and is now part of the indian Tata steel and manufacturing group.
Jaguar cars are designed in Jaguar Land Rover's engineering centres at the Whitley plant in Coventry and at Gaydon in Warwickshire, and are manufactured in two of Jaguar Land Rover's plants
Castle Bromwich assembly plant in Birmingham and at the old Ford Halewood Body &
Assembly near Liverpool.
Two of the proudest moments in Jaguar's long history in motor sport involved winning the Le Mans 24 hours race, firstly in 1956 and again in 1957, in the hands of the little known Scottish racing team called Ecurie Ecosse whose name later went down in legendary status for twice pulling off a David v Goliath effort in the famed car killing race.
The Jaguar XF is marketted a mid-size executive car that was introduced in 2008 to replace the out-going S-Type in the company's line-up. In January 2008, the XF was awarded the What Car? 'Car of the Year' and 'Executive Car of the Year' awards. The XF was also awarded Car of the Year 2008 from What Diesel? magazine.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4503896012 - 'Chris is the operations manager (M.Inst.ICCM to give him his proper title) at Northwich Town Council for cemetaries. He looks after the allocation of burial and cremation plots at Northwich and Rudheath in Cheshire. He is a great chap and I was inspired to have a little window into his job.
It is his job to catalog each interment and here he is looking at a ledger of burials from 1893 onwards. Documentation becomes sparse much before this. All of the records in Northwich are in fact paper records in ledgers like this, they have not yet been computerised or fully digitised. Often a usual day at his office is taken up at least in part by family tree enquiries and manual searches of the books of carefully hand written entries. The books are now getting quite worn and tired, some flaking and coming apart unfortunately.
I had quite a long interesting chat with Chris, who as you might expect had quite an enlightened view of death and burial. The British and indeed largly northern European view of it tend to keep it hidden. However it is the only one of two things we will all encounter in life, the second being tax.
Human burial practices are generally bourne from the human desire to demonstrate 'respect for the dead'. Also to prevent the possibilities of revenants harming the living.
Here are the main reasons for this-
Respect for the physical remains. If left lying on top of the ground, scavengers may eat the corpse, considered disrespectful to the deceased in many (but not all) cultures. In Tibet, Sky burials return the remains to the cycle of life and acknowledge the body as 'food,' a core tenet of some Buddhist practices. Parsi's in India expose the body to the air, birds, insects etc to be picked clean. This last one is not so far away from what ancient britons did when bones were picked clean then stored in communal chambers, as have been found in the Scotish hebrides and particularly on Mull.
Burial can be seen as an attempt to bring closure to the deceased's family and friends. Psychologists in some Western Judeo-Christian quarters, as well as the US funeral industry, claim that by interring a body away from plain view, the pain of losing a loved one can be lessened.
Many cultures believe in an afterlife. Burial is sometimes believed to be a necessary step for an individual to reach the afterlife.
Many religions prescribe a particular way to live, which includes customs relating to disposal of the dead.
He is seeing a rise in green / natural funerals. Bodies buried five to ten feet down in a wicker or biodegradable container, sometimes not even in a traditional cemetary setting. Cremation is becoming ever more popular too. Suffice to say, Chris and the job he does should be safe for sometime to come.

I have been a regular customer of Ron (of Ron Snax, Outside catering available 01827-706191) for some time. The mis-spelt pricelist notwithstanding (Turkcy), he does a cracking job. \u00a32.40 buys you a bagette the size of two fists, packed with fried goodness. My only gripe is that he doesn't do black pudding, but that has never stopped me calling there. His litre of steaming tea or coffee also blows Costa away.
Rons does barms and soft bagettes. It always amazes me how short a distance you need to travel, for bread names to change so dramatically. It could be a bread-cake, teacake (obviously without fruit), a sub, barm, breadbun, cob, stotty, scone, buttery, flour cake or muffin. Using the wrong one can lead to a lot of confusion. Any more bread styles you know from across Britain, please leave a comment and let me know.
The old 'Greasy Spoon' in my opinion gets an unfair press. Wikipedia defines it as:
'Greasy spoon is a colloquial or slang term used in Britain, Ireland and North America for small, especially cheap, archetypal working class restaurants or diners. The name 'greasy spoon' is used to imply a less-than-rigorous approach to hygiene and dishwashing, and appears in use in the early 20th century'.
There have been a few stories, mainly hoaxes based on ficticious EU reports about eating habits of long distance drivers and their health. As any truck driver knows, the greatest hazard is infact 'Truck drivers testicle' caused by vibrations encountered over time from sitting over the tractor unit engine.
Thankfully, Rons position appears safe, although he did tell me that a new rating system is apparently coming in. So look out for his star rating, next time you are on the A46. Tell him HotpixUK sent you!

The river was why the Romans came to build their fort here and the area below the city of Chester (now called The Roodee), which is now occupied by the racecourse was where the harbour was located. Over time the river silted and Liverpool became the port of choice for sea going vessels.
Near to this pedestrian bridge, north of town, is the Groves. A paved promenade complete with bandstand, caf\u00e9s, restaurants and pubs. Here there are river cruises or rowing boats to hire.

Certainly more a shop for the ladies, I wouldn't know my underwired from my padded basque or the difference between a body, babydoll or a Bustier. Luckily Linda has a website for 'La Bonita' (which in spanish means 'The Pretty One' - www.labonitaonline.com 01925 212937) so if you are looking at something for the weekend, you can order it there on your plastic.
Being a bloke the correct choice of a well fitted bra has not really been one of my problems. As several women have told me over the years, finding a good shop that understands this is generally worth its weight in gold. Linda has some useful hints and tips on her website and I am sure if you take yourself in to see her, you will be in good hands. She can no doubt guide you through the minefield of types
backless, balconette, bungalow, convertible, coupe, cupless, demi cup, front-fastening, full coverage, halter, longline, minimizing, padded, plunge, push-up, racerback, sports/athletic, strapless, strapless-backless, t-shirt, underwired, wireless, sports bra, and invisible.
The quantity of underwiring in some bra's is now becoming an issue with enhanced metal detector checks at airports. Triumph International have launched a 'Frequent Flyer Bra'. This oneuses metal free clasps and resin underwires instead of steel that are guaranteed to not set off metal detectors.

There are some cracking books on tattooing around. They are great for inspiration and like this chap, if I was having a large scale piece of work done it would be the ideal coffee table book to be browsing. Tat history is over 5000 year-old as proved by a tattooed mummy found in modern day Egypt. there are many fine books that document and illustrate it.
Here are some of my favourites that I have read, owned, enjoyed, had stolen or lost during the years.
The Sketchbook: 80 Unique Designs by the World's Finest Tattoo Artists.
A perfectly tattooed body requires the skills of a professional and talented artist, who creates a unique and personal design. These designs are often inspired by one or more of the various tattoo styles of Japanese, Maori or other tribal origin. 'The Sketchbook' offers the reader a selection of 80 of these unique designs by well-known and less famous, but very promising, tattoo artists from around the world. Each artist was requested to create a sketch unrestrained by commercial demands and which reflects their own personal interests.
Bodies of Inscription : A Cultural History of the Modern Tattoo Community
this is a pretty academic book. The new tattoo community described here is demographically quite different from the old. It is more female, more middle-class, and more educated, whereas the earlier society of tattoo collectors was primarily working class and male. DeMello lays out some of the social history of tattooing to prepare for her discussion of the changes in tattooing in the past 20 years. From handpicked prison tattoos to the latest in today's 'tribal' design, from gang symbols to feminist ones, tattoos themselves have changed to meet changing demands and fashions.
The Tattoo Encyclopedia: A Guide to Choosing Your Tattoo
As they should, tattoos continue to move into the mainstream and grow in popularity. For people pondering getting a tattoo, however, the choice of images can be overwhelming. A comprehensive, informative exploration of the colorful world of tattoos, The Tattoo Encyclopedia presents concise descriptions of symbols both common and unusual and sheds light on their historic, religious, and cultural significance.
Bushido
Legacies of the Japanese Tattoo. This includes over 200 cracking photos by the classic tat2 photographer Jai Tanju. The text is based largely on Takahiro Kitamuras experiences as customer and student of the famed Japanese tattoo master, Horiyoshi III.
Tattoo Art Tribal Vol.II
Tattoo Art has been producing high quality tattoo designs for over a decade. Professional tattoo artists worldwide have used Tattoo Art's wide assortment of designs to satisfy all their customer needs. The quality and variety of the tattoo designs produced by Tattoo Art has placed them among the industry leaders. Its a great index of proven designs.
Also, call me a luditte, but if it was a choice between an electronic version of one of these books (ie Kindle download), or shiny paper, i would go for the latter every time. When my Billy bookcase sags, it actually smiles. :-)

The Dogs, Ed Banger &

I have memories of my old mum, coming home from catholic church on Sunday talking about that scruffy 'Tony Wilson' turning with 'dodgy shoes'. This was when he lived in Charlesworth with Lindsay Reade. In his youth he lived in affluent Marple, Stockport Cheshire.
I was lucky enought to photograph Chad &
Shez at their punk wedding. One of my most enjoyable days out ever. Brilliant people and family.

The company take the unique concept of coach touring in the style of days gone by. Deep velvet seats, hostess service at your seat. AEC coaches from 1971 &
1972 feature.
AEC was a United Kingdom based vehicle manufacturer which built buses and trucks from 1912 until 1979. The acronym stood for the Associated Equipment Company, but this name was hardly ever used
instead it traded under the AEC and ACLO brands.
Clive has worked a good proportion of his life with AEC coaches and has a couple used just to cannibalise parts in order to keep the two pride and joy in preservation style. They are named Lord Clive and lady Sarah.
While famously associated with London's Routemaster buses, AEC supplied commercial vehicles to many companies both domestically and around the world.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy CEMWY5 - . Edinburgh Graffiti and old person inner city scotland. A lonely UK urban street scene in icy winter, snow on the ground. Photographed on 28 December 2009. The recorded location is Chambers street, Edinburgh, Scotland UK United Kingdom. An elderly lady navigates through the graffiti, along the ice and the snow in winter. Historically, heritage photography is particularly useful where buildings or objects have changed function
A former workplace, shop, transport structure or piece of equipment can become a museum object or landmark, linking everyday history with conservation and interpretation. The historical context is that art in public and historic settings adds another layer to the built environment
Sculpture, mosaic, painting and street art can interpret heritage, provoke debate, memorialise communities or create landmarks, and images preserve works that may later change or disappear. The wider historical story is that urban street scenes capture the cumulative effect of planning, architecture, transport, retail and public space
Shopfronts, signs, street furniture and pedestrians can date an image precisely and show how a district changes between periods of investment, decline and regeneration. In 2026, conservation is increasingly considered alongside regeneration, climate resilience and adaptive reuse
The value of a historic subject therefore lies not only in nostalgia but in the evidence it provides about materials, local identity and how places change. The subject remains topical in 2026 because contemporary interest in public art is closely linked to regeneration and cultural tourism. murals and sculpture continue to be used to express identity and animate public space, while redevelopment can make photographic records of earlier works increasingly valuable. Useful related concepts include historic environment, local history, preservation, period detail, historic fabric, heritage asset, social history, and architectural history.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HGC7W6 - . An on-location photograph from the recorded location in 2009, showing the named subject as part of a wider social, commercial, cultural or physical setting rather than as an isolated object. The main point of reference is Old lady walking down a snowy path with graffiti, Edinburgh City,Scotland. The image also relates to urban artwork, temporary artwork, local character, contemporary social history, street creativity, creative placemaking, regional identity, changing land use, documentary photography, visual archive, public art, archival record, graffiti heritage, and urban graphics. From a 2025-onward perspective, local identity and graffiti policy are closely linked to this subject, alongside how temporary street art can become an important record of neighbourhood culture. The archival value lies partly in recording local activity and public use around the recorded location before changing commercial priorities alters the character of the place. The photograph additionally reflects community identity, public-realm art, local history, visual street culture, everyday life, street-level design, before-and-after reference, and period detail. The combination of Edinburgh, snowy, walking, graffiti, and Scotland anchors the frame to a recognisable activity, place or moment. For the recorded location, the photograph contributes to a cumulative visual history in which changes in use, signs, access and appearance can be traced over time. The setting also helps illustrate local identity and how regeneration can both promote and displace informal urban art when considered against later change at the recorded location. The image also provides a reference for local identity and the role of murals and stencils in giving creative districts a distinctive identity without losing the local specificity of the recorded location. The view records details of everyday use as part of the recorded location's history.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy CEY8R9 - . Late night, last minute Christmas shopping ,at the PC online. Photographed on 21 December 2009. The recorded location is England, UK. In the longer view, seasonal photographs document the mixture of tradition, commerce and community activity surrounding Christmas
Domestic lights, cards, street attractions and anti-Christmas jokes all sit within a broader culture of winter celebration. Looking at the subject's development, shops and markets are a visible record of changing consumer life, from family businesses and specialist traders to chain stores, department stores and regenerated market halls
Fascias, signs and shopfronts can date a street scene as clearly as architecture or vehicles. The wider historical story is that panoramic and atmospheric views place individual landmarks within their wider setting
Light, season and weather affect how architecture and landscape are perceived, while distant development can provide clues to the changing form of a town or coastline. Current 2026 relevance comes from the fact that christmas remains a major retail and tourism period, while household energy costs, sustainable decorations and the pressure of seasonal spending often feature alongside more traditional festive themes. For the 2026 context, high streets continue to change rapidly as retailers respond to online competition, costs and changing footfall
Government support for community assets and town-centre renewal gives photographs of independent shops, markets and former businesses added relevance to stories about regeneration and community economies. In historical terms, christmas imagery ranges from religious observance to commercial decoration, seasonal entertainment and humour
Cards, shop displays, lights and novelty messages reveal how the festival has been represented in popular culture as well as how retail and public spaces respond to the winter season. Further editorial search language includes Xmas, festive season, and Christmas card.

Mr Gidman doing an excellent job in Stockton Heath at the dental practice.
In this day and age in western countries we should be able to eat ourselves out of a trip to the dentist
Foods that help muscles and bones also help teeth and gums. Breads and cereals are rich in vitamin B while fruits (an apple a day... ) and vegetables contain vitamin C, both of which contribute to healthy gum tissue. Lean meat, fish, and poultry provide magnesium and zinc for teeth. Some people recommend that teeth be brushed after every meal and at bedtime, and flossed at least once per day, preferably at night before sleep. For some people, flossing might be recommended after every meal.
Some foods may protect against cavities. Fluoride is a primary protector against dental cavities. Fluoride makes the surface of teeth more resistant to acids during the process of remineralisation. Drinking fluoridated water is recommended by some dental professionals while others say that using toothpaste alone is enough.
Milk and cheese are also rich in calcium and phosphate, and may also encourage remineralisation. All foods increase saliva production, and since saliva contains buffer chemicals this helps to stabilize the pH to near 7 (neutral) in the mouth. Foods high in fiber may also help to increase the flow of saliva. Sugar-free chewing gum stimulates saliva production, and helps to clean the surface of the teeth.

The lift bridge (proper name Salford Quays Millennium footbridge) is a 95m vertical lift bridge bridge spanning the Manchester Ship Canal at the manchester Pomona dock end. The bridge, was completed in the year 2000 and links the Lowry Centre to Trafford Wharfside.
The bridge has a total lift of 18 metres and can be raised or lowered very quickly in less than three minutes.
This area is now given over now to shopping, flats, bars and the BBC northern outpost, rather than the ships of over 40 or more years ago.

The club hails from beginnings in 1890 when first set up by Brunner Mond (adjacent chemical works) for employees development of sports and recreation.
The venue was ideal for gigs staged in the big room. Only surpassed by gigs held at the end of the old Northwich Victoria (Vics) social club with its 8ft roof and low stage.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 3711866769 - 'A bit about her from her Bio: In 2001, a friend introduced her to drummer Dave Heyes, who had recently finished a stint of gigs with Elvis Costello. After attending one of Maria\u2019s gigs, Heyes quickly became a fixture in her band. In 2005, Maria came across producer John Kettle (Tansads/High Holy Days/The Marble Index). Together, they recorded a three-song demo. \u201cOnce I was in the studio and heard the magic of my music coming to life, I knew that this was where things were going to change forever,\u201d Maria says. Within a few months, Maria had five major record labels and publishers interested. She set up a showcase in London and traveled there with the band.
\u201cThe sound was bigger and better than ever before. From there I got a fantastic reaction from the labels who wanted to hear more.\u201d In the summer of 2006 Maria and Dave established the indie label JTC Records, and they released the single \u201cLove Of My Life\u201d which went on to receive national airplay. Soon after this Maria returned to the studio to record her debut album \u201cLandslide\u201d.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2PJNEXF - Neglected accessible toilet cubicle in the United Kingdom, with loose and used toilet tissue scattered across the tiled floor around a raised white lavatory fitted with a dark contrasting seat. The untidy and apparently unhygienic condition suggests that the facility has not been inspected, cleaned or replenished frequently enough. For a disabled visitor who may depend upon this specially adapted space, such poor maintenance can turn an essential public facility into an unpleasant, undignified and potentially unsafe environment.
The cubicle includes several features intended to support wheelchair users and people with limited mobility. Horizontal blue grab rails run along the tiled walls, while a padded fold-down support rail is positioned behind the toilet. A stainless steel flushing panel is mounted above the WC, and a large circular toilet-paper dispenser is fixed to the adjacent wall. However, the dispenser appears open or incomplete and several cardboard tubes remain exposed, while torn paper and debris are visible on the floor. Accessibility equipment alone does not provide genuine inclusion when basic cleanliness, consumable supplies and routine supervision are missing.
Accessible toilets can be crucial to a person's ability to travel, work, shop, attend appointments and participate independently in everyday public life. Their condition therefore concerns more than ordinary housekeeping. A dirty or unusable disabled lavatory may create additional barriers for wheelchair users, older people, carers and anyone requiring extra space or support. It can also communicate that their comfort, health and dignity have been treated as a lower priority.
UK workplace guidance requires sanitary facilities to be maintained in a clean and orderly condition, while organisations providing services must consider reasonable adjustments and equal access for disabled people. Regular inspection records, responsive cleaning arrangements, replenished supplies and prompt reporting

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HGM7HK - Homeless man sleeps on a paved area outside a commercial office building in Liverpool, Merseyside, wrapped inside a bright blue sleeping bag with his head resting on clothing and personal belongings. Plastic bottles, drink containers, carrier bags and an orange sit beside the improvised bed. The stone facade, dark windows and formal business entrance create a stark contrast between the surrounding office economy and the visible hardship of somebody sleeping outdoors without secure accommodation.
The photograph was taken on 20 July 2026, the day Andy Burnham entered 10 Downing Street as the United Kingdom's new Labour Prime Minister. In his first speech outside Number 10, Burnham said his first instruction would be to end rough sleeping. The statement placed homelessness, housing supply and prevention among the immediate priorities of the new government and followed his earlier support for a national Housing First approach and increased council housebuilding.
Rough sleeping is the most visible form of homelessness, but the wider crisis also includes people living in temporary accommodation, hostels, insecure tenancies or unsuitable arrangements with friends and relatives. Official figures showed that England's estimated rough sleeping rate increased in 2025. Liverpool also has established outreach and accommodation services intended to connect people sleeping on the streets with practical help and longer-term housing.
The scene documents the personal reality behind national policy announcements. Ending street homelessness requires more than emergency beds. It depends on early prevention, sustained outreach, appropriate health and welfare support, genuinely affordable homes and routes into permanent accommodation. Burnham's pledge will therefore be judged by whether national promises result in practical local support for people experiencing homelessness in cities such as Liverpool.
