I have a hefty collection of old engineering journals from 2011-2015, publications are Modern Railways, New Civil Engineer, & The Structural Engineer, free to a good home. May suit various waiting rooms or for engineering students, most of the topics discussed are relevant today

I believe this jacket is from Dobell, a company that produces their tailoring in Turkey. I'll show you some telltale signs of quality and where you can buy a tailored jacket made in Britain. 🧵

Honestly gobsmacked. Trump bullying a country ravaged by war, trying to take advantage, & demanding "thanks" like a child. Cancel the state visit & cut them off like we did to Russia. Donate to Ukraine 🇺🇦 #SlavaUkraïni

If you're interested in gantries in general, have a look at my previous thread here: https://t.co/KEfwpYI0rD /END.
Some recent discussion has prompted me to do a quick thread on some UK road gantries (Disclaimer: Not A Designer). You may have noticed the latest road gantries have different designs and look bigger, & bulkier, than previous designs 1/ #roads #motorway #gantry #construction
