  • A young man whistles to a tune that he is listening to through headphones. It is 1989 and the Walkman is the toy of choice for the urban young - the first portable music device that helped change the way society took their taped music out and about - and years before the Apple iPod. It worked but one had to press the foam pads into the ears to drown out background city noise plus the cassette tape often snagged and twisted, ruining the product.

  • In pouring rain, United States Air Force pilots stand like canmouflaged statues in the undergrowth near Fairchild Air Force Base, Spokane, Washington. They are listening to a USAF survival instructor giving them advice about another challenge they are about to face, a few hundred yards ahead in the woods, so they listen intently in the saturatedconditions. They stand motionless, green figures in a green maze of foliage, wearing waterproof cagoules covering their backpacks which are shiny as the rain trickles down. They look like hunchbacks of the forest. The week-long survival course is held at the military facilities around Fairchild where the Air Force conducts a survival, escape and evasion course which combat pilots need to pass before rejoining their units for real-time warfare. This part of the lecture is held in the forest and forms part of an extensive physical and psychological assessment for young aviators on active service. In the future any one of them may be shot down behind enemy lines and need to use the lessons passed-on here to help facilitate their rescue by US forces. One pilot who passed this course in 1991, himself a Spokane-born boy, was F-16 pilot Scott O'Grady. He put his skills learned here to the test while evading Serb forces before being airlifted to safety and a hero's Presidential welcome.

  • When nearby offices have emptied on such a warm summer's afternoon, crowds of local workers and tourists sit on the steps between offices both old and new and beneath the towering dome of St. Paul's Cathedral. Entertaining the people is a lone pianist, playing an upright piano as part of City of London's play a piano music festival. Anyone able to play can simply sit on the stool and play the instrument as the feel like it and passers-by can enjoy unsung talents. A jogger dressed in yellow runs past but otherwise, those listening to the impromptu music sit with appreciative respect for the young black man, hunched over the keys.

  • A view of the green Yorkshire moors countryside looking down from a nearby hill to the top secret intelligence-gathering base of RAF Menwith Hill, near Harrogate, Yorkshire, England.

The base has attracted significant levels of protest from anti-nuclear and pacifist groups.

A placard showing a pair of hands holding a human heart telling us that they are important public serve because they help save lives. But unclean ambulances, one-hour queues to drop patients off at A&E departments and 12-hour shifts with little or no breaks about pay lowered staff morale so that paramedics implemented a work-to-rule policy to protest about a lack of resources. Ambulance workers enjoyed unprecedented levels of public support during the six-month dispute as opinion polls found more than four out of five people consistently backed the unions.
