Post prandial rainbow, over a Severn that had already given me glimpses of a leaping salmon and a kingfisher. My #Shrewsbury cup runneth over!

If you're (still) wondering whether Trump will make America prosper, take a look at the White House Rose Garden, turned into somewhere he can host paying guests.
Then take a look at Jacqueline Kennedy Garden, destroyed to build somewhere he can host paying guests in winter / when it rains...

Panel includes ME - arguing Brave New World is a utopia, Sci-Fi doesn't have to predict the future, (doesn't do a good job when it does, but does a better job than anyone else).

Tomorrow marks 200 years since the opening of the Stockton & Darlington Railway, in 1825.
