I have been asked an interesting question. Why does London’s Moorgate tube station have a mix of “traditional” bar-and-Circle roundels... and weird diamonds? Well... (1/6)pic.twitter.com/jxz6rH6dN9

Tri-ang's Arkitex model series must have been the genesis of many an architectural career for budding Erno Goldfingers wanting to construct their own modernist masterpieces. BTW if you enjoy these then DO head to
@thetoymuseum at Brighton where they have many of these on displaypic.twitter.com/zcKHUy8vvU

Tri-ang also produced its 00-scale Minic Motorway system - a bit like a less exciting Scalextric - so bored kids of the 1960s could relive the adrenaline of being stuck behind dawdling caravans and lorries shedding loads on the M62 https://minicmotorways.weebly.com/sets.html pic.twitter.com/8ffdP6IOf2

Tri-ang, later part of Hornby, created some BONKERS toys. One such was their Minic Narrowgauge Railway system: an attempt at an off-the-shelf ride-on garden train set. They were 10.25" gauge, originally track-powered (yikes!) a few used ones for sale today http://www.tmnr.co.uk/ https://twitter.com/gawuffy/status/1224013756658847747 …pic.twitter.com/FZAFVdn92w

Went to Chislehurst Caves. Lots of tunnels to yomp around with a hand-held Paraffin-fuelled hurricane lamp. 15 mins train from London Bridge. V good.pic.twitter.com/lFNNh5alEc

I know I should probably enjoy railway station architecture most when it’s being used by people – as that what it’s for – but London Bridge is rather splendid and quiet between trains at weekendspic.twitter.com/diiYaUsxCA

I made my friend Clare cross the road to come and look at this. Oh I do like a good Silver Shadow or Silver Cloud. Might even stretch to a Corniche.

21st Century Rolls-Royce cars are grotesque overblown self-unaware parodies but THIS, this 1976 gold Silver Shadow we spotted in Greenwich today is ACE.pic.twitter.com/MyoCPKhKI0
