It's 54 years since Pink Floyd released Meddle, which spent 85 weeks on the UK album charts. With a gatefold cover (shown here opened up) featuring a close-up of an ear, one side of the album is host to the epic Echoes. Coincidentally, on this day in 2001, a Pink Floyd compilation of the same name was released! Here's pictures of both:

@RussellPrue @RealBobMortimer Ah! A fellow fan!

Having a bit of a Mortimer reading-fest, absolutely loved The Satsuma Complex and follow up, Hotel Avocado. Now on the biography and enjoying that very much too. Not my usual fare but it's nice to go wild now and again. All of this, highly recommended folks. @RealBobMortimer

@AustinPedalCars @CaerphillyCBC @ITVWales Absolutely an other great success from team @AustinPedalCars

@davewhy @CaerphillyCBC @ITVWales Thanks for all your hard work and patience David, we got there in the end.

On Friday 4th July the blue plaque commemorating the austin Pedal Car factory at Tir-y-Beth (Bargoed) was unveiled. Great team effort with @AustinPedalCars @CaerphillyCBC @ITVWales and the local primary school. Prout to help honour this amazing factory - home of the Austin J40!

In 1975 Kodak engineer Steven built the first digital camera, but the company shelved it to protect its film business—a major missed opportunity in tech history.

@JLees27 @GiveBloodNHS But clearly not counted in the same way. I’ve been donating for around 30 years and still nowhere near 100 donations . Congratulations on being a Plasma donor.!

@davewhy @GiveBloodNHS Every donation counts still!! Whatever you’ve donated is still brilliant!

Milestone for milestone!!! Completed my 100th donation for England on my 22nd birthday 🥳🥳🥳 please donate if you can for @GiveBloodNHS

@JLees27 @GiveBloodNHS Ah, so a different system then to the blood donation one. 100 blood donations take many years. I'll never achieve it.

@davewhy @GiveBloodNHS Because I’m a plasma donor and you can do it every two weeks, and each donation awards you 2 credits as opposed to blood’s one :))

@LBFlyawayhome Brilliant illustrations of something essential to know! In fact the whole book is essential!
