I came upon this photo of the late Honour Blackman. I don't know what her drinking habbits were, but I'm guessing this is from TV or a movie. Can anyone tell me where it's from?
First Cathy Gale episode recorded was Death Dispatch June 23rd 1962.
First Cathy Gale episode broadcast was Mr Teddy Bear Sept 29th 1962 .
(Death Dispatch was 13th episode broadcast that season).
who likes maps? who like geologic history? who stares at web-apps wondering how the heck they did that?
here's a GoogleEarth style webmap I found today that shows the position of the continents at various points over the last 750millon years.
Overlaid by the outlines of recognisable modern coastlines (but those break down the further back you go, for obvious reason)
Searchable spatially by location of modern cities, which should float around on top of the prototypic continental plates.
Also searchable temporally by key moments in the evolution of life.
But I'm wondering what happened to the other 4 billion years?
Whilst cataloguing my collection, I found this issue of World Of Wonder #2 from 1970 complete with free gift poster and an article on whether the UK should join the then Common Market. Some things never change )
Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
I'm impressed with everyone's ability to grasp the essentials of the article :v
I remember my national service near Tromsø where we only got about an hour of ....... non- darkness in the middle of the winter. It certainly affected our mood and energy levels. In my opinion artificial light (candle light etc), being active and social and mind-set was important to cope. The author of the article isn't aware that hygge is also a Norwegian word. I belive koselig is better explained by translaing it to cozy, the words probably share the samme root.
I'm kind of the opposite (well they say there's always one!). I was out with a group of teenagers at an evening event with street performers etc ,a couple of years ago, that was to end in fireworks. It was light at the start of the evening. I was in a happy mood but soon noticed that I felt much happier and so alive. I didn't understand why then realised it had gotten dark I love to go walking at night.
I have a friend who moved to Denmark and he explained the word hygge to me. I recently came across a small restaurant near Cardiff, Wales called hygge.
There are lots of positive things about winter and darkness. I remember walking around the neighbourhood last winter and everytning was glittering from the snow and frost. It looked magical. While there are a few lights on at night we also see the stars better than in the cities.
I live in a city. Thankfully, it has a lot of parks and wooded areas and I'm lucky to live near some of them. I usually take a bunch of kids away once a year (on a sort of camp but indoors) and they are amazed at the amount of stars they can see. Some 12 to 14 year olds are afraid of walking in the dark. They are used to being driven everywhere. It's so sad.

Has anyone explained the concept of Higgy to you? It's kind of the opposite, just when you think you have something cozily explained in your mind, a 'Higgy' opinion gets posted and kind of confuses the hell out of you. The concept is usually visually represented by green trainers, but few know the mystical origins of this tradition.
One of my small pleasures, is walking through some woods, when its windy
and listening to the
creaking of the trees. As for the dark nights, I'm not a fan, I like sunshine and
warm weather, although I do have an astronomy app that show the names of the
stars and planets in the night sky. Which is fun and informative when out walking
at night.
"I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."

I've often read of these green trainers and wondered about them. Maybe they could be added to the smilies as a new icon!

Creaking trees are great. I also like walking in woods when it's dark or with a full moon. Add a couple of bats and you can't beat it. My husband often calls me a vampire )
I don't like it too hot and prefer a nip in the air.
Btw I like your avatar. I'm not a fan of Superheroes but Batman is the exception. Probably because my brother gave me a Batmobile when I was a kid. He didn't want it anymore because it was broken. But I didn't care, it was a Batmobile!
The Spy Who Never Dies, you have
Exceptional taste, after Bond, Batman
Is my favourite hero {[]
Maybe we should lobby for a Batman icon! Though I am a bit concerned that he's not wearing his mask properly. I thought the idea was to have the nose and mouth covered! I hope he understands social distancing )
) He probably already has a Bat-Vaccine for it, he sorted out the scarecrow quick enough.
On the mask think, I have a mate who due to medical reasons is exempt from having to wear one.
Who told me he has on average at least three or four arguments a day from angry people !!! We
are living in Crazy times.
On overhearing Teenagers conversations, I was in B&Q recently and heard a couple of Teens
talking about " Tongue and Groove " .... I guess that's the music they're in to.

The photo is taken in July, at night.
