1966 Austin Mini Cooper on a new housing development somewhere in Loughborough Leicestershire sometime in 1971.
FBY915D was last taxed in September 1979 although rather strangely a V5C was issued on July 18th 2005.
This Mini Cooper belonged at the time to my occasional photostream contributor Mr David Lewis and the photograph is posted here with very kind permission.

A pan view of a postmodern, neo-historical housing development of Sanderson villas in suburban Gateshead, whose architecture references historical vernacular features, but lack the fine-grained detail of traditional architecture in an attempt to avoid a purely historical recreation.
A pair of Metro-Cammell class 599 Tyne & Wear Metrocars pass through Gateshead on the central trunk section of the Tyne & Wear Metro network.

Text
Da kommt eine Hexe daher. Die hat einen langen Rock
an, ein rotes Tuch auf dem Kopf und eine blaue Brille auf der
riesenlangen Nase. Ei, das ist ja die Rosel.
Ui, ein Indianer und ein Eisbär! Wer ist das? Der Indianer
ist der Max und der Eisbär ist der Xaver. Die ganz kleinen
Kinder
fangen zu weinen an. Aber die Schulkinder schreien:
Eisbär, Eisbär, da geh her!
Bist ja bloß der Xaver.
Da wird der Eisbär wild und saust den Buben und Mäd-
chen nach.
Der kleine Gernegroß.
Der kleine Hanselmann war erst vier
Jahre alt. Aber er wollte schon ein Herr
sein. Da hat er vom Vater die Joppe
angezogen und seinen Hut aufgesetzt. Dann
hat er noch den Stock genommen und eine
Schokoladen-Zigarre in den Mund gesteckt.
So ist er auf die Straße gegangen. Da
haben alle Leute gelacht und gesagt: Ja
Hut wo willst du mit dem Hänschen hin?
Und wie ging die Geschichte weiter? Das
können wir singen:
Hänschen klein ging allein
in die weite Welt hinein.
Stock und Hut steh´n ihm gut,
ist ganz wohlgemut.

On the way back from Ely, we decided to drop in at St Albans Cathedral.
The Royal Palace in Oslo illuminated during the night, standing quietly at the centre of one of the most significant days in modern Norwegian history.
King Harald V was born at Skaugum on 21 February 1937. He became Crown Prince as a child during the Second World War and later became King of Norway on 17 January 1991 following the death of King Olav V. As the first Norwegian-born prince in 567 years, he would go on to become one of the most respected and beloved monarchs in the nation's history.
On 28 August 2026, King Harald passed away at the age of 89. The Royal Standard above the Palace was lowered to half-mast, marking the end of a reign that spanned more than three and a half decades. Later that day, the flag was raised again as Crown Prince Haakon succeeded to the throne as King Haakon VIII, continuing the royal motto that has united four successive monarchs:"Alt for Norge" – "All for Norway".
Throughout his life, King Harald championed a vision of Norway rooted not in ancestry, wealth or background, but in shared humanity. In what became one of the most celebrated speeches ever delivered by a Norwegian monarch, he reminded the nation that Norway is more than mountains, fjords, forests and coastlines. Norway is the people who call the country home.
Norwegians are the young who carry the future and the old who carry wisdom. Norwegians are single people, divorced people, families with children and elderly couples. Norwegians are women who love women, men who love men, and women and men who love each other. Norwegians place their faith in God, Allah, the Universe, or in nothing at all. In all their variety, they are Norway.
His message was simple yet profound: a nation is not defined by borders alone, but by the people who stand together within them. Diversity, dignity, inclusion and mutual respect were, in his view, essential parts of what it means to be Norwegian.
As the lights of the Royal Palace shine into the night, they illuminate not only a building, but the memory of a king whose reign was marked by service, humility and unity. His legacy lives on in the values he championed and in the people he served.
Alt for Norge.
