Superb.

Mine's a MICRA.
Can't be without it.

I am somewhat shocked to find no mention of 'dogging', whether to disparage or encourage the practice. Bourton, after all.

I had to go full screen just to look for it.

I took this second photo just outside of Pokhara, Nepal, in 1983. A child, carrying a small lamb, some 40 years after my father's shot.
Observational snapshooting, using photography to observe and record. You see what I saw.

Hitch-hiking in 1983/4 ... little known in those days, but Jonathon Porritt gave me a lift into Totnes where he was about to give a talk.
We chatted about Green issues, obviously.

That's the hope.

In around 40 months.

And yet, this action was nothing less than subversive. That worker knew the emotions their action would trigger. The normy-patriarchy has no future, its failures graphically laid bare for all to see.

They had more birds than we do now. What went wrong?

Search on here for:

Though you may have seen it by now.

Sort of what half-frame was designed for.

Careful not to insert too many 'l's when reading!

Reading through the synopsis I remember the scenes. Not sure if I saw it 15 years ago or caught an older version prior to that. It's odd to compare it with Mrs Miniver (same year, but x2 the budget), a movie one uncle said was "the greatest film ever made" ('cos he had the hots for Greer Garson).

Nearly everyone, yes, nearly.

The graphic above tells only half the story, as domestic usage is all over the place:
height, often feet
weight of newborns, often pounds
body measurements, inches
I moved to Europe mid 1970s in my early twenties, so have been metric ever since.

Absurdities, of course. But if we used kilometres we could work out km per litre with barely a thought, whereas, as you suggest, it's not worth the faff with mpg.

Hard to say really, but they linger on nonetheless ...

Yep, that is a good list.

Boomers certainly inherited the 'memory of empire' (to their detriment) but for later gens so much depends on knowing the truth about their roots, and few enough do.

Deprecate Imperial weights and measures (stop teaching them in schools) and the next generation should be in with a chance.

Always assumed it, and just patiently waiting for the evidence.

Few things help the brain grow better than absorbing another language.

It's surprising to think that boomers were against closer ties with Europe in '75. If they didn't appear in the vote stats it could be because so many were already in the EC working, rather than staying unemployed in the UK.
That's personal experience, ofc, of meeting so many in the EC, mid '70s.

Quite strange to read over this period and the arguments as I'd missed it all at the time. As soon as we were 'in', I got 'out', and by mid '75 I was working on farms in the south of France.

Ho ho ho. I still print out maps sheets for a trip.

I gather letters were adjusted depending on the oral language of a group. Eg, some shapes in Phoenician were for sounds that did not exist in Greek, and Phoenician script did not show vowels so spare letters were repurposed.
No general rules, just choices made (I presume) to enhance clarity.
comment in response to
post
Put briefly, the sources for Roman script were Greek and Etruscan letters, which were both derived from Phoenician.
Phoenician letters appeared around the 11th/10th century BCE.

It's high time for Imperial measurements to be deprecated. Stop teaching them, they'll die out soon enough, and the UK can rejoin the sensible world.
I'm 1m80.

I'm still waiting to see details on a second blast. Nothing yet.

Earlier I saw this vid described as a 'first' explosion. News of a second came a few hours ago. I think.

It was prepared by the Dean of the college. As this was more than 20 years ago I would have hoped more colleges would have developed their own resources - another place had a dedicated office to help ss with these issues.
I don't know of any single resource, though there must be stuff out there.
comment in response to
post
The last college I worked at produced a student handbook giving tips on these and other Study Skills topics (not AI !!)
Ss might not read it, ofc, but a long list should be helpful - plagiarism, citation, referencing, paraphrasing, note-taking and making, summarising, analysing the question, etc.
