Difficult day today. Calls about my (sham) redundancy, which - because I abhor confrontation - I am tying myself in knots over.
Spending some time out in the garden watching the birds of prey and the finches.

I booted up Geoff Crammond's GP4 a while ago, and did a double-take at a young Fernando in Minardi overalls...

Today has been a classic depression day. Unhappy at everything, took myself off to bed.
Did visit Crystal Palace. On the right is the former circuit that #F1 greats such as Hunt, Hill, Clarke raced at. You can see the decent - they'd have raced towards you in this image.

Also hello from HMS Belfast, a veteran of the Acrtic Convoys, Operation Overlord - the D-Day landings at Normandy - and the Korean War.
Built by Harland and Wolff, her guns were so powerful, they cracked the crew's toilets.
Nearly sold for scrap, she now sits next to Tower Bridge. #history #london

Hello from The Golden Hinde, a full-scale reconstruction of Sir Francis Drake's vessel.
In 1560, Drake returned to England 3yrs after setting out - the first to circumnavigate the world.
This replica was launched in 1973 in San Francisco, also circumnavigating and covering 100,000+ miles. #history

In an effort to improve the 8FPS I'm getting from iRacing, some essential upgrades are in progress.

Understand why some would feel frustrated at this film, but absolutely worth a watch.
That said, I have entire bookshelves devoted to nuclear war, so my view may not be representative!
It's no Threads, but enjoyable and timely nevertheless.

From my walk today.
The road in the foreground is Maxim Rise, part of the old #F1 circuit at Crystal Palace.
Bruce McLaren, Stirling Moss, Jim Clark, Graham Hill, Jackie Ickx, James Hunt and Jochen Rindt all raced here.

This #caturday, I present to you a cat that is not mine, nor my parents'.
I don't think he gets much attention from his owners.
He is currently curled asleep in the middle of mum and dad's hallway, getting some peace from the Guy Fawkes fireworks.

Spending some time with mum and dad to do some mental health recovery.
Dad and I crowded around the tablet like we were woth a tiny portable tv a few inches across, back when we raced R/C cars on a Sunday in the 90's.
