Happy “beautiful trees in autumn sun” day everyone. Have a good one whatever you are up to! 📸🍂 #NorthernEngland

An street sign which says “BELLEVUE ?X? TERRACE”, in black on a whitewashed wall. All lettering is in capitals. The ?X? looks like an each S superimposed over a H, with numbers at top (8), bottom (87, left (1) and right (8). It reminded me of a NY/HC logo from the 80s/99s

This unremarkable terrace building was finished in the year 8817. Or perhaps even 8781.

I supposed it could be 1788 (given that a pub about a mile away was built in 1776). But that makes it nearly as old as the USA, so that can’t be right.

The Blackpool Tower which is in Blackpool, Lancashire from a different perspective. I stood flat on against a window to get a mirror image of the tower, plus buildings and structures. The sky was very blue with wispy clouds too.

On reflection, Blackpool does tower above some of its neighbours…

I’ll get me coat 🤭

More than 100 landfills in England may be leaching ‘highly hazardous’ waste Inadequate record keeping means councils do not know whether former waste sites contain toxic substances

”The investigation also found that 2,600 former dump sites with potentially hazardous contents were within 50 metres of watercourses.”

Good to see Northern England getting more explicit recognition from the OED.

I was also delighted to be reminded of the existence of the word "apeth", which I have not heard in speech for decades, and to learn of its etymology; as a child, I thought it had something to do with apes!
