******************************************************************************************** Thank you so very much to all ipernity members who have spent a considerable amount of time and effort helping raise the profile of the problem that TalkTalk customers were NOT able to access ipernity. What a brilliant Community!! :-))) Following an announcement from ipernity a short time ago that there would be a fix by 16 December the site has, suddenly, just become accessible!!! :-))))) So many rumours have been flying about but let’s hope all is now sorted!! “Merry Christmas to All” ******************************************************************************************** (My original comments were "Good evening. Unfortunately, for the last day or so I cannot access any part of ipernity using my desktop or laptop!! I can get very limited access using the 3G Network via my phone hence this upload! If any kind person knows of a solution to this problem please comment or email me rogergalaxy1@gmail.com Thank you, Roger")

This is part of an exhaust system that is possibly on a Formula 1 race car. Could be an Arrows F1 car :-)

And...................there's more! Another shot of the Biochemistry Building :-)

From www.britainexpress.com/cities/oxford/radcliffe.htm - “The circular dome and drum of the Radcliffe Camera provides one of Oxford's most iconic sights, and is a distinctive landmark in a city full of distinctive landmarks! The camera (the word means simply "room") was built 1737-1749 with £40,000 bequeathed by Dr John Radcliffe, the royal physician. The Radcliffe Camera was intended to house a new library, and designs were called for from several leading architects, including Nicholas Hawksmoor (responsible for much of All Soul's College) and James Gibbs. It was Gibbs who won the competition, with his elegant Palladian design, though his final plans drew heavily on earlier work by Hawksmoor. Gibbs was also responsible for the Church of St. Martin-in-the-Fields, in Trafalgar Square, London. Originally the library in the Radcliffe Camera held both scientific and general books, but those collections were gradually moved to other University libraries, so that today the Camera functions as the main reading room of the Bodleian Library. The finished building holds some 600,000 books in underground rooms beneath Radcliffe Square. Sadly, the Radcliffe Camera is not open to the public.”

I don't know the car here. And, not sure if this is the bonnet. Not much help, am I ?

Just looking thru' some older shots :-) This one, from a while back, was taken in Cornmarket Street, Oxford. This Street is always teeming with shoppers, tourists and the odd photographer :-) I did upload this shot to that other site and at the time there was a bit of an on-line discussion as to what this lady was doing. At the time I said I thought she was demonstrating yoga and advertising yoga classes. I am sure, somewhere, I have another shot that confirms this :-) Anyway, I could say I saw the word "Look" in the background and framed the shot to include this :-) Of course, that ain't the truth' cos I only saw this when I looked at the shot on screen :-))

The awe-inspiring 24-litre Napier-Railton being prepared for its final run and this was to be the final run of a magical weekend! Here's to next year's Hill Climb :-))

And............another 'Autumn in Oxford' shot :-)) Possibly, some more to follow :-))

An icm shot from a while back. I think this is most likely taken in West Wycombe Park but I am checking :-))

And.................another shot of the Bio Building :-)

I thought it was time to upload a shot taken with my phone :-) Falling behind at the minute!
