  • Outside Heathrow Airport's Terminal 5, during the turnround of a British Airways jet aircraft, the refueller’s heavy fuel nozzle is plugged into the airfield's underground reservoirs to pump some 109 tons of Jet A1 aviation fuel flowing at a rate of 3,000 litres a minute, to be uplifted into the wing tanks of a Boeing 747-300, a typical quantity of extra fuel for this aeroplane bound for Los Angeles. From writer Alain de Botton's book project "A Week at the Airport: A Heathrow Diary" (2009).

  • A tall Shell sign seems to echo the palm tree landscape alongside the A 92 motorway near Paradas. On the main highway between the Andalucian cities of Granada and Seville, the corporate logo appears to be higher than the growing trees in the distance. The word “Shell” first appeared in 1891 as the trademark for the kerosene that Marcus Samuel and Company shipped to the Far East. The small London business dealt originally in antiques and oriental seashells. In 1897 Samuel formed The Shell Transport and Trading Company. The first logo in 1901 was a mussel shell. In 1904 a scallop shell, or Pecten, gave a visual element to the corporate and brand name.
