Last weekend, I took my sons for a long-overdue visit. First, I looked up a long-established firm called ‘Jones The Boats’, whose tree-shaded docks provide a pleasant view from a waterside.

El Escritor Inglés: When Cars Weren't Crap
http://paulspradbery.blogspot.com/2015/08/when-cars-werent-crap.html
Sunday, August 02, 2015. When Cars Weren't Crap. I have, true to form, thoroughly enjoyed this week’s Ashes. Or did it pertain to a specific make of vehicle? Or was it relative: cars are crap, compared with . buses, bicycles or whatever? England won the Test, just minutes before the tea break, by eight wickets. They lead the series 2-1 with two matches to play. It was time for Plan ‘B’. Maybe some are. Regardless, I admire those that are prepared to nurture their links with the past, and who refuse t...

El Escritor Inglés: Press Priorities
http://paulspradbery.blogspot.com/2015/02/press-priorities.html
Wednesday, February 04, 2015. Twenty-nine years ago this week, millions of American television viewers witnessed the first US Space Shuttle disaster. Barely a minute after take-off, NASA’s Challenger. Spacecraft disintegrated as a result of rocket booster failure (Figure 80.1). An ‘O-ring’ seal failed, which allowed burning gas, under high pressure, to escape and cause structural damage to the external fuel tank. The laws of aerodynamics did the rest. Media attention prior to the launch had been especial...

Wednesday, October 01, 2014. To Meet The Gene Genius. I have often been asked what I consider to be the most impressive scientific discovery of my own lifetime. It is a good question, capable of invoking endless fascinating debate. In my view, though, one stroke of post-1966 genius stands head and shoulders above all else. If I could – in my dreams – have been responsible for just one piece of research, this would undoubtedly be it. Figure 78.4: The Royal Institution of Great Britain, on Albemarle St...

Friday, May 23, 2014. Last Saturday was, to date, the hottest day of the year. My nine-year-old son and I ventured out after breakfast to a sprawling local park, where the annual end-of-season junior football tournament was about to take place. Stretching across the vast green expanse were a dozen half-size pitches, alongside which stood marquees, gazebos and ad hoc. Figure 74.1: The day’s tournament kicks off . At 3:30, back out they went, for the semi-final. The first half was goalless, partly the ...

Livery Companies

The Ironmongers' Trust Company. Sir Robert Geffery's School. Sir Robert Geffery's Trust. They are called Livery Companies because in the early 14th century many of them assumed distinctive dress and Edward III was known to have been clothed in his livery when attending the Merchant Taylors. The Butchers were known to have a hall outside the City walls as early as 975, and there was a fraternity of Bakers in 1155, but the Company with the oldest known charter (1155) is the Weavers' Company.
