The Chat Room / National 'Hug your Cat day'
Last post by Silver Tabby - Today at 06:35:12 AM
Today, June 4th, is national 'Hug your Cat day'.  Seemed like a nice idea - so I did.  Perhaps I should have fed him first.  Does anyone have brandy and bandages to hand?

Here you go. Live and learn....

The figures on Abington Street (known as Discovery) commemorate the Northampton-born scientist Francis Crick, co-discoverer of the DNA structure. [1, 2]
Created by sculptor Lucy Glendinning, the figures and their support represent: [1, 2, 3]
  • The Double Helix: The soaring, curved plinths echo the twisting shape of DNA. [1]
  • The Physics of Life: The structures are designed to represent Crick's description of DNA as a balance between large numbers and the energies of attraction and repulsion. [1]
  • Optimism and Daring: The two identical, life-sized figures are captured mid-takeoff in bold, abandoned postures to symbolize the sheer daring, passion, and excitement of Crick's scientific work. [1]


I didn't know that Crick was born here.

Quote from: klondike on Yesterday at 10:50:29 PMMy previous post is nothing to do with your question. It was a follow on to Macs about working for the gas board.No idea really. I imagine some council bloke wangled them as works of art and trousered a few bob when they were paid for.  There's a number of rather odd artworks around the town that make no sense to me but I'm just a philistine.
Bit odd if you ask me.   :hmm:
