Calne
This signpost in Calne's Town Gardens looks fairly random, but in fact the three destinations are all towns that are twinned with Calne. The Caln Township in Pennsylvania was actually founded by settlers from Calne. I seem to recall that some official delegates from there turned up in the mayoral offices several years ago expecting the full works, much to the surprise of the staff, who had no idea they were coming.

Captain Beefheart - Observatory Crest (1974)
Today marks the birth of Don Glen Vliet, who became Captain Beefheart. This song, from Moonbeams And Bluejeans, was inspired by his childhood in Waverly Drive, Glendale, Los Angeles. Up the road in Griffith Park he spent a lot of time sculpting and studying the animals at Los Angeles Zoo. The park contained both the zoo and an astronomical observatory. The song was later recorded by Mercury Rev.
