Also, he beat Binky. I'd never have put money on that.

Once again, more painting from the denizens of The Wizard Tower.
This one is shorter than the previous epic, and is a good looking human subject, so the algorithms think that's worth more clickage. We serve only to obey.

I almost got run down by a startled clarkson once in the bbc carpark
to be fair, rather than circumnavigate all the way around to the entrance, I would cycle down the steep grassy verge into the basement lot where I shot out just in front of his 4wd, probably confirming all his prejudices against cyclists

I used to have a 70s book about space that had all the GPO (yes, them) designs for space craft, among others. Lost it when they cleared out granny’s house after she died and never managed to identify it.

Post Office. The actual Post Office drew up designs for space ships.
I want to say hardback with black cover but to be fair I was only 7 at the time and that probably covers most space books. I also remember there being a couple of pages devoted to space toilets.

The 2 pages on
number 2s must be a common thing, when I read that I reached over for my copy of Living In Space by Peter Smolders (published 1986 by Airlife) which mostly deals with the shuttle program, Salyut, Skylab and Spacelab, was originally written in Dutch, and is definitely not your book.

I wouldn’t go to too much effort.
There’s every chance you could find the exact book and I wouldn’t recognise it. It had cutaways of NERVA and Daedalus/Orion engines too.
Every chance I’m misremembering but I think the toilet instructions part actually had a shot of those from 2001.

GPO was dissolved in 1969, replaced by Post Office Ltd.,
but I have found one book published by GPO in 1970... Which has nothing to do with space. Finding a list of GPO publications is proving bizarrely difficult, I'm sure search engines and libraries used to be good for this sort of thing.
There are a lot of technical books/pamphlets relating to space published by the American GPO (e.g. presidential/senate/committee reports on space projects and research) that overwhelm search results on biblio and abebooks... Many of these are sure to contain diagrams and cutaways...
Also there are lots of cutaway books from the 50s onwards (Eagle dedicated at least two hardbacks to them) but relatively few devoted to space. This should be easy, dammit.

It wasn't produced by GPO.
Perhaps I'm not explaining well enough. The GPO produced serious designs for space craft and EVA suits. I'm not joking, though given how hard it is to find an example I'm beginning to wonder if I had some sort of fever dream.
Fuck. I seem to be gaslighting myself now, but I could [i]swear[/i] I even saw a feature on TV about them.

Fuck it, I'm driving myself mad over this post office business. Only hope now is to track down that damned book I suppose.
