Cereal killer - what if harvest had a twist on today's (7-March) National Cereal Day?

Marvellous @Topological
I wonder if a pie-based day will appear again quite soon. Say, a natural, prime meat pie with no artificial additives. Without E-numbers. Yes - a natural prime pie without E.
Nice image, but wrong thread.

Everyone knows that Shreddies are knitted by grannies.

Dave and his Shredded Wheat earlier seem even more relevant now :D.

What if, BR had experimented with battery locos?

Next stop: Womanchester - what if travek to today's (8-March) International Womens Day events, had enough rolling-stock.
Womanchester is an advanced place. They were doing 2024 graffiti long before the pacers were retired.

With enough prompting you can overcome Gemini's gender biases. Either that, or this is a vision of the future.

Where's Wonder Woman on International Women's Day? :D
Down the Chariot Pub ;)
Possibly she will make an appearance this coming Saturday.

Excellent. I mean, what could possibly go wrong?

OK there are some limitations on the realism. I mean, I gave the women pints and suggested they might read a book by Elon Musk (Ian Mask). It doubles up neatly though, because patience is always a mask.

It has two women looking for the Ferrari's engine, in its front trunk. Now, as to whether that's realistic... ;)
They are clearly inspecting to see if she has trapped a tamed racing driver in there. The AA have long offered a boot inspection service. Recently I had them come to confirm that I had not mis-stacked my Spam tins and pasties following a recent Tesco promotion.

(Other chopped meat products are available. Other supermarkets may be available in locations other than Tesco.)

Interesting that the AI has the stuff pouring out of both ends of the pipe - presumably there is a duckweed breeding facility at the base of the column?
I let it off by observing what appears to be a third connection just behind the pump. Near where the driver is stood there is something going into the ground. My rationale is that the duckweed is somehow pumped in there and then unsuitable weed is sent back to the canal.

But that said, Bionic Duckweed is magic so maybe it grows faster than the train can take and the rest has to be dumped into the canal?

Although it will be corrected one day, currently AI has no concept of context. I asked for an unplugging and got one end of the wire with an unplugged plug. The other end of the wire was plugged in. Rather defeated the point of what I wanted, and also leaving the question of what on earth the wire actually did.

It is possibly unrealistic to use Mallard as the test locomotive. I rationalised that because it was Mallard used for the speed record, so the locomotive had already been a test loco in history.

Ah, but Mallard = the speedy duck, so would be entirely appropriate to be fuelled by duckweed...?

The ladies are off to celebrate National Woman`s Day.

As an aside, Dave and Harriet may have found fame. The landlord of my local pub took an interest and asked me to come up with a possible advert for his curry night. A few free pints and three minutes later.....

I assume you used a real inside shot of the pub?

That street scene also looks like it might be the real one. It reminds me of my addition of a bridge and railway to Skeffington Road in Preston.

It’s not the real interior, I don’t know how to use real photos with AI. If he creates a poster using my image the landlord would only use it within the pub.
The pub with the girls is AI created, I’ve no idea if it’s actually a pub anywhere. I’ve often wondered if humans created by AI such as my Dave character are sourced from random pictures found by AI on the internet.
Interesting how does copyright work with AI. Are the images created owned by Google or the creator?

It does, yes. Probably also all those albums on the cloud that are sneakily regarded as legitimate AI fodder by clauses in the smallprint of things like Google, Instagram, Facecrook, etc etc

The "author" is deemed, in the UK at least, to be the person who made the inputs that generated the image - i.e. you in this instance, and the copyright lasts 50 years from the date of creation of the image.

@Ashley Hill - these two arrowed screen shots are how you select your own image as source data.
Your image-prompt starts: "use the attached image, however, [add / include / change / remove]..."
It's how I made these linked images.

Since I know you are familiar with the Dolphin in Plymouth:

Gemini_Generated_Image_ah3jjgah3jjgah3j.png

Because I am doing this for illustration and did not have my own image to hand, I have used an alamy image. You can see Gemini preserved the copyright there. My command was:

Starting with this image of the Dolphin pub in Plymouth, please add a dockside railway. There should be two wagons being moved around by a Class 08 diesel shunter. The dock is to the left, so please constrain the railway so that it does not impact any buildings
