Ever since the Commonwealth games held here in the early 1970s this single little spaceship has been appearing in different locations around the city for the last 40 years. It has now become city icon its really [Cool]

If only leaders (of any kind) were still so inexpensive.

-and unlike most Leaders these days, these go in first just to make sure it's safe for all that follow them!

Really...What DOES the last inch of a film do anyway???

Not much... [Smile]

Taking about spaceships this weekend, my grandson made a rocket out of an old drink bottle he had. That has got me thinking about my last roll of Super8 film I have and single frame animation....could be fun subject. Oh! I had a wee snooze this morning, only to wake up with my feet tied up by junior...so don't fall asleep when the grandkids are around [Eek!]

When my not so little boy (a teenager the year after next) was about three, he drew this picture (his first).

-how nice to be young enough to still dream about the Space Age!

Amazing coincidence! I’m organising a children’s space themed event at the moment.
