It's the start of my annual graduation music marathon tomorrow (23 this summer, to bring my total to date to 380 ceremonies), and I was up at the university campus in Exeter this afternoon for a rehearsal. It'll be heaving there tomorrow, with lots of happy people.

The Pantheon remains the largest dome constructed by concrete that is not reinforced.

Built in AD126, and was the basis for many similar domes over the following centuries.

Hey, what have the Romans ever done for us?

I remember myself and Mrs Tosh looking round the building some 14 years ago. I was absolutely mesmerised by the dome, and the fact that the Romans built it, not far off, two thousand years ago.

Ditto. Very clever concrete, getting thinner towards the centre and using lighter aggregate. Mind-blowing.

Spent the weekend staying in a very hot Pitlochry, this was the view of Loch Faskally from the room.

Back on the Nantes-to-Brest canal yesterday evening for the first time since late May.

Just east of l'Herbinaye heading towards Montertelot.

Photo for @DCLane to remind him of his recent tour over here.
