I work in L&D, with a sideline in theatre. My interests include green issues, interesting old cars (mainly 60s, 70s, and 80s everyday stuff), SiFi, Theatre, and writing. I have an unfinished novel; who doesn't?

Hello, computer.
Leonard Nimoy's Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (aka The One With the Whales!) was released 39 years ago today.
One of the most popular Trek films, the Whale Movie is indeed one of my fav. Fresh, funny, with a fine environmental message, it completes an overall successful trilogy.

He's created tons of concept art that I've already shared (on Twitter then here), mainly for Prey (2017), but also Love, Death & Robots, Returnal, Dual Universe, and even Beyond Good & Evil 2. 😍

The Jensen Interceptor was brute force in motor car form, but the lesser-spotted FF was far more advanced. With its Ferguson Formula full-time four-wheel-drive, anti-lock brakes, and traction control, it preceded the Audi Quattro by 14 years. If you’d like to see the video, comment ‘JENSEN’ below.

Triumph was proud of the 2000's eye-catching Michelotti body, and its six-cylinder engine was one-up on the Rover. Like its rival, many features were ahead of their time - this ensured both cars had a long production life, ironically ending up as bedfellows under British Leyland.

This week is Road Safety Week & a chance to talk about Barbara Castle!
Barbara was Transport Minister for three years yet she was able to introduce the Breathalyzer, a proper integrated transport strategy & more!
This was done despite fierce opposition.
