Aside from the costumes etc., where and what are those huge cement structures. ?
They remind me of baffles in a waterway to break up wave or tidal surges, but that's probably not what they are... |

Not sure what they are for, but it's an airfield - West Malling in Kent.
Carruthers might be able to identify their purpose.

They were sited on the airfield perimeter track where aircraft were dispersed and refuelled. I assume that they were constructed in order to contain the blast should an armed and fully fuelled aircraft explode either by accident or design rather than to deflect jet efflux. Such structures are angled so as to deflect jetblast upwards and wouldn't be as robust as these concrete walls. ETA: Just giving the subject a little more thought, the walls would also provide a degree of protection from attack.

And maybe to protect others from jet exhaust in a crowded area.

Spider Clock.
No, don't get ahead of me... ...Here's the nightmare part: You can have one, for $15,800. Want it in gold, you say? $18,050.

Found this hanging around outside the kitchen window this morning:
One of your common orb weavers...Stan, or Bill, maybe. Looks like the rare and elusive Instagram spider.

Oh.
I have never had a problem with anything I've seen posted in this thread. Spiders, snakes, creepy things, none of it has ever bothered me. But that wasp fucking got me man. Jesus Christ. |

I do not care what entomologists say, that thing is not a wasp. That is a monster.
I like English wasps. On my trip out last week (from which my feet have only just recovered) I even fed the little wasps on Jam (okay, that was to keep them away from my scone.) I've been stung by them, and the stings, while not a barrel of laughs, do not justify the running and squealing and panic that people react with when a single stripy creature buzzes your face. That would. That would have me reaching for my G-D passport.
