Manchester born and bred... but I've lived in the sud-Touraine for the past 25 years; the rural area in central France south of Tours and the Loire river and where it hardly ever snows.

Hi... thanks for that... just ordered those four buttons and large stickers I mentioned earlier for myself, the lady artist who owns this house, and her IT daughter in Bruxelles and her Italian journalist partner... so trying to spread the joy! :-)

If shipping to France eventually becomes realistic I would order four of these 1.25" with a pack of stickers. And congrats on your Bluesky thread... cool designs, plus, the occasional bonus Olivetti ad :-)

Well done! You certainly look happy enough, but I think one never forgets the pain of the first completed marathon... the next ones are remembered more with pleasure.

Me too... we have quite nonsensical conversations, but never arguments!

'Tis tempting to 'like' everything in your posts... certainly makes a great visual change from the regular 'attractive' images most people, including myself, post. Everything my eye sees now is for editorial stock, but my heart craves the monochrome mystery images you find. Kudos to you!

For sure... and I understand. I've been having the same 'follower' problems. Thankfully I think I've only been on three lists, two of which I created myself ;-)

Pity his long tie doesn't get caught in the shredder... and then...

Had quite a few cars in my time but never owned a Renault. Only foreign one similar I drove in the UK was an early Citroën 2CV with the small motor and then a Belgian registered Citroën Méhari which I'd obtained by swapping five Pirelli calendars for it!

I was born and lived the first 20 years of my life less than a mile from this building... now The British Muslim Heritage Centre. Hasn't changed much since I last cycled past it probably 60 years ago!

Always love reading your excellent alt.text... for me it 'sets the scene' perfectly, especially at the end where you say "from a moving car" which make me recall similar images I make (since I don't drive any more) from moving cars, buses, trains and, in the past, planes.

I'm feeling increasingly tired with social media... every morning, scrolling, basically the same content... becoming guilty of that trend too. Then I find your thread, totally unlike my posts, some entries I don't fully understand... but it jerks me out of my torpor, and I thank you for that.

Looks very Welsh to me... at least north of Machynlleth !

I only had a problem once with ex-movie film stripped sprocket holes and that was in a Nikon F2 High-Speed; the one with the double battery pack and 9.5 frames a second throughput. But thankfully it was only a one-off malfunction whilst testing before a film shoot with Bill Haley and His Comets!

When I worked at Granada TV back in the late '60s to mid '70s I often scrounged 'ends' - like 50/75 feet or so - of 35mm Ilford Mk.5 movie film from the guys processing the World in Action projects. Did all movie film have barrel shaped sprocket holes, like the Ilford Mk.5 ?

Hello Adriano... I followed you back on my other stream "Ed Buziak / Artist" rather than here on my photography thread. Ciao.

We (I and a close friend) did this puzzle last year but it was a slightly smaller 1,000-piece puzzle titled "Celestial" by the maker Cloudberry. It was still a challenging design though, made interestingly confusing by the "which piece goes in which circle?" decisions.

There must be a remarkable experience of 'natural light' in this pavilion which I would love to live and work in. Really nice, too, the combination of modern sheet glass, natural woven branch fencing and existing traditional brickwork on the house... a very elegant design combination.
