Quote from: Offa on August 18, 2024, 10:01:51 PMBecause the 1829 engine trials at rainhill gave birth to the passenger railways namely the Liverpool to Manchester railway. It is a figure of speech stating that the rainhill trials laid the foundations for railways around the world.
Awesome idea

France, 2024.


In 2024, the French national sides of the 10, 20 and 50 euro cents carried new designs of famous French women.

They made an interesting change, even if some people found reasons to criticise them.


The euro as a circulating coinage is around a quarter of a century old now.

Perhaps one or two more eurozone countries will change some of their designs in 2025.

If you live in a eurozone country, which changes would you like to see to your national sides?


How many changes have already been made to the PICTORIAL designs of the national sides?

(I exclude here those portrait changes for a new head of state).

Is there anywhere that I can see an illustrated list of these?

But they are not handsome dogs.

My neighbour had one, and he was a fine hound, friendly and also a bit mischievous.

I always found him a bit weird to look at, though.

No john bulls dog is an English bull dog the English bull terrier is a different dog, bill sykes dog bullseye in Oliver Twist was an English bull terrier

Yes, I mean the English bull terrier.

Below you see my neighbour's bull terrier, Rocco.
