On this day, 45 years ago, one of the creepiest stories ever shown on British TV reached its climax.

Assignment Two of Sapphire and Steel — the one with the resentful ghost of a World War I soldier haunting an abandoned railway station.

That's a particularly fine cluster of mushrooms you've got there...

And this one is of Station Road in Wood Green from the start of the 1970s. It's a screengrab from On The Buses, which means after only four posts I've already broken one of the self-imposed rules I set myself a few days ago.

I have no intention of replicating my X account on Bluesky but, just in case I decide to delete everything over there, I do want to try to preserve a couple of images of local historical interest.

This one is of the 1970s bathroom pods on the Noel Park estate in Haringey, from when they were new.

Favourite thing this week: Carl Sagan’s Pale Blue Dot via the medium of LEGO.

(From the Pharrell Williams film Piece By Piece.)

As I join the exodus from the hellsite, I realise that the only interesting things I ever posted there were that there are no ghosts in Wood Green and that hobgoblinism is a real word.

Things I posted that can stay in the Other Place: politics, local housing issues, screengrabs from On The Buses.
