Lower Whitelands by Andy Mitchell

This is where we lived for 25 years. Old miners' dwellings. My Great Grandfather brought up his family there in the early 1900s. We lived in the bottom rank which originally had a railway line running along.

When miners lived there the gardens were immaculate not an inch wasted. Some would keep pigs. Growing food was a matter of survival especially during strikes like the one of 100 years ago. I have created a label Whitelands.

GANDAHAR - Official 4K Restoration Trailer

An entire civilization must confront its destiny in alternative-animation pioneer René Laloux’s final feature, a cult classic of mind-bending science fiction. In a distant world, a merciless army of automata attacks Gandahar, turning its peace-loving people to stone. Hoping to discover the source of these Men of Metal, a council of matriarchs enlists the brave yet inexperienced warrior Sylvain (Pierre-Marie Escourro), who, while journeying through his planet’s outer regions, teams up with the Deformed, a race cast out from Gandahar

Gandahar (film) - Wikipedia

after failed science experiments rendered them mutants. Soon, Sylvain learns that a gargantuan brain called Metamorphis (Georges Wilson) is responsible for his utopian society’s strife and—together with the beautiful Airelle (Catherine Chevallier)—travels through time to defeat him, in the process risking their lives and Gandahar’s very existence. Featuring stunningly surreal creatures and wondrously bizarre environments designed by renowned comic-book artist Caza, Gandahar is a visceral, visionary head-trip in which animation opens a gateway to the furthest reaches of the imagination.

London Rocknroll March 1976

The London Rocknroll March of 1976 was a significant event in the history of rock music, particularly in the UK. It took place on May 15th, 1976, and involved thousands of Teddy Boys and Girls marching through Central London to the BBC studios in a national campaign for more Rock 'n' Roll to be played on the Radio. The march was a response to the lack of authentic Rock 'n' Roll being played on the Radio, which was at the root of the protest. The event was a total success, leading to the BBC caving in and delivering a weekly Rock 'n' Roll Show on Radio 1 late on Saturday afternoons. The march was a testament to the enduring popularity and influence of Rock 'n' Roll music during that era.
