The church incorporates in its chancel arch masonry dating from c.1200. To this early building a south aisle and south chapel were added in the earlier 13th century; the chancel may also have been lengthened at this time. By the early 19th century a south porch and west tower, constructed of timber, had been added. Restoration of the church took place in 1854-5 under the direction of T.H. Wyatt, when the external walls were rebuilt. In 1933 the south chapel was extended eastwards and an aisle was added to the northern side of the church.
St. Andrew's Church was a chapelry within Downton ecclesiastical parish until 1915 when it was annexed to Odstock parish. Arguments by the inhabitants of Nunton and Bodenham that the church should be detached from Downton parish had arisen since the latter half of the 16th century; at numerous points in the 17th to 19th centuries the scarcity of services was noted.
In 1553 there were three bells, which remain in the church today. Parish registers date from 1672; baptism registers from this date to 1906 are held at the Wiltshire & Swindon History Centre in Chippenham, as are marriage registers from 2000, with a brief gap between 1764 and 1759. Burial registers held at the Centre date from 1672 to 1965. Later registers than those cited here remain with the church.

Back from my foreheads argument with my the nose of my surfboard. The surfboad won. All is well however, will catch up on your posts soonish.

Wir befinden uns im Zentrum der hektischsten Bautätigkeit von Baku. Hinter mir stehen gleich drei halb fertiggestellte hochmoderne Gebäude, die ganz sicher im Juni mit allen Argumenten einladen, die auf die Gäste der Auto-Renn-Welt wirken können.
Möglicherweise verblasst dahinter tatsächlich die Strahlkraft des "Hilton" - momentan das erste Haus am Platz.

There was one subject on which we were unanimous. No arguments whatsoever on this one. From the moment Lee shared a black and white beauty he’d found in these pages, the deal was done. Whatever else we came here to take pictures of, the little bent tree in the wilderness was going to be one of them. At least assuming we could actually find it, that was. All we were certain about was that it was on Dartmoor, and that none of us had seen it on our travels. And although there are a number of very compelling images of it on this platform, none of you was very forthcoming about how to find it. A well guarded secret. And with nine hundred and fifty-four square kilometres of national park to explore, simply happening across it was about as likely as picking the correct numbers for the National Lottery. We needed somebody to tell us where it was. But it didn’t stop us digging. Dave managed to find an article that convinced us he’d narrowed it down to a few sprawling hectares.
It so happened that the author of Lee’s discovery was one of my regular contacts, so I messaged her and asked if she remembered where it was. But as an overseas visitor who’d been chauffeured around the moors for a couple of days, she had no idea. Perhaps she had been sworn to silence. I suspected I knew who’d shown it to her, so I asked him next. “Ah yes you won’t find that on your own. I’ll come along and show you where it is.” Nick’s wealth of Dartmoor inside intelligence seemed to be matched only by his stellar photographic talents and his generosity of spirit. We arranged to meet up with him during our visit, and he sent me details of where I’d need to park. I recognised the screenshot from Google Maps straight away. It seemed Dave’s hunch wasn’t too far from the mark.
In the event, although Nick was able to join us earlier in the day to share another of his secret locations (more of that in another tale), he had to dash off before the afternoon took hold. A good job I’d also arranged to meet another local photographer in the shape of Carl, who spent the day with us traipsing around the moors. It turned out that Carl had also asked Nick for the keys to the kingdom, and having been granted the freedom of the moors, he’d already visited the tree once before. He was keen to return to the scene for another mission. And so after lunch, we headed off towards what would be the final location of the day.
Even though we now knew roughly where the tree was, it was a good job we had a guide. Because standing here at the edge of the car park, it might have well as been on Exmoor for all we could see. Stick a pin in the huge rambling rock strewn green landscape and hope for the best. It was far away enough to deter visitors, its anonymous location protected by an enchantment of bogs and streams in a terrain where only welly boots would take the stubborn few. With a good set of binoculars we might have been able to see it from the top of the rise beyond the car park, but even as we approached the crag upon which the dwarfish hawthorn tree sat, it wasn’t entirely obvious as to exactly where it was. But then we spotted it, clinging to the edge of an expanse of granite tor, tiny and twisting towards us, changing shape from every angle. I hadn’t expected it to be quite so small. “Three ways to shoot it,” Nick had said to me conspiratorially. I hoped to find a fourth.
And here is (maybe) that fourth point of view, the small hunched shape leaning forward, her long locks flowing behind her as she careers down the slope. “I don’t know whether it’s a witch or a skier,” wrote one of my faithful correspondents when I shared this first image on another platform. “Maybe it’s both,” I replied. I don’t know anything about skiing, but “knees bent, lean forward and brace for impact” seem to fit the bill here.
I never did discover the three ways - I found two others that I liked a lot, and three more that I wasn’t so keen on. Excuse me if I’ve been a bit vague about exactly where it is - but seeing as I was entrusted with treasured information and I’m hoping my friends across the river are going to let me in on the inside track again next time I visit, well you know how it is - got to keep the Cornwall and Devon entente going you know. What a beauty she is though, even if finding her was like searching for a very small needle in a city made of haystacks. With such outlandish beauty, she deserves that veil of anonymity.

Here in Thailand, you can encounter these creatures, the macaques, in many regions.
That was also the case here in Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park. These little monkeys are very curious and not at all averse to stealing (so always be on your guard).
So, this friend spontaneously took advantage of my short break to take a closer look at my backpack (to check for weak spots, of course).
Fortunately, a camera backpack is quite sturdy, so it didn't sustain any damage.
However, it took a lot of persuasion (and the use of a stick) to get the backpack back. Every time I even approached, the monkey went into attack mode.
In the end, though, I had the better arguments.
Hier in Thailand kann man in vielen Regionen diesen Zeitgenossen begegnen, den Makaken.
So war es auch hier im Khao Sam Roi Yot Nationalpark. Und diese kleinen Affen sind sehr neugierig und dem Stehlen überhaupt nicht abgeneigt (also immer schön aufpassen).
So nutze dieser Kamerad eine kurze Pause meinseits spontan, um sich näher mit meinem Rucksack auseinander zu setzen (natürlich um ihn nach Schwachstellen zu untersuchen).
Zum Glück ist so ein Kamerarucksack jedoch recht robust, so dass er keinen Schaden genommen hat.
Es kostete mich jedoch einiges an Überredungskunst (und den Einsatz einen Stockes) um mir den Rucksack wieder zurück zu holen. Denn jedes Mal, wenn ich mich auch nur näherte, ging der Affe in Angriffsposition.
Am Ende hatte ich jedoch die besseren Argumente.

This is the first ladybug I saw this year. Seeing so many wonderful ladybug images here on Flickr I wanted to take one myself. And it wasn't easy. This lady just wouldn't cooperate. She wouldn't stay still not even for one split second. I wonder how you guys get them to cooperate...

The mask is telling us that it is in the interest of the common good that the rich get richer. That it is best to let them get on with things and that we all will benefit in the end. Humpty Dumpty said 'There's glory for you!' 'I don't know what you mean by "glory",' Alice said. Humpty Dumpty smiled contemptuously. 'Of course you don't — till I tell you. I meant "there's a nice knockdown argument for you!"' 'But "glory" doesn't mean "a nice knock-down argument",' Alice objected. 'When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, 'it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.' 'The question is,' said Alice, 'whether you can make words mean so many different things.' 'The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty, 'which is to be master — that's all.'

Psycho Silo Photofest

Psycho Silo is an outdoor biker bar. They're only open in the summer and have a strange and rusty collection of antique cars, trucks, signs, etc. to entertain the patrons. One day a year they have a "photofest" where they invite models.
A friend suggested a road trip (it's about 2 hours from my house) and we wandered around. We photographed the aforementioned antique things, and a few...ahem...tastefully dressed models.
As always, there will be more pictures.

I was surprised that the female House sparrow (on the right) was able to win the argument. The female Northern Cardinal flew off right after this encounter.
Turns out it was almost the full half hour (sorry Monty P). Two Lesser Black-backs having a right ding-dong
The warrior still does not realize that violence does not bring any solutions, that only communication, dialogue, discussion, argumentation, disputation are leading to solutions.

I am torn as to whether it is ok to keep animals in captivity in zoos or not.
Arguments against:
Restriction of freedom: zoos are a restricted habitat for many animals. They cannot roam or hunt freely, which can lead to stress and behavioral disorders.
Animal welfare: Some animals suffer in captivity, especially if their needs are not met. Restricted movement and unnatural environments can lead to physical and psychological suffering.
Arguments in favor:
Species conservation: Zoos contribute to the conservation of endangered species. They provide safe habitats and breed animals to strengthen their populations.
Education: Zoos play an important role in environmental education. They enable people to experience animals up close and get involved in species conservation.
What is your opinion on this?
--
Ich bin hin und hergerissen, ob es ok ist, Tiere im Zoo gefangen zu halten oder nicht.
Argumente dagegen:
Einschränkung der Freiheit: Zoos sind für viele Tiere ein begrenzter Lebensraum. Sie können nicht frei wandern oder jagen, was zu Stress und Verhaltensstörungen führen kann.
Tierwohl: Einige Tiere leiden in Gefangenschaft, insbesondere wenn ihre Bedürfnisse nicht erfüllt werden. Bewegungseinschränkungen und unnatürliche Umgebungen können zu physischem und psychischem Leid führen.
Argumente dafür:
Artenschutz: Zoos tragen zum Erhalt gefährdeter Tierarten bei. Sie bieten sichere Lebensräume und züchten Tiere, um ihre Populationen zu stärken.
Bildungsarbeit: Zoos spielen eine wichtige Rolle bei der Umweltbildung. Sie ermöglichen es Menschen, Tiere hautnah zu erleben und sich für den Artenschutz zu engagieren.
Wie ist deine Meinung dazu?
You never win with a Starling but this Woody stood his ground and started yelling that he was working out and did not want to be bothered, but to no avail, the Starling stood fast. A comical image for sure.
Thanks for visiting and for all the kind words always appreciated very much.

Amor, amor
Anda libre en el surco, bate el ala en el viento,
late vivo en el sol y se prende al pinar.
No te vale olvidarlo como al mal pensamiento:
¡lo tendrás que escuchar!
Habla lengua de bronce y habla lengua de ave,
ruegos tímidos, imperativos de amar.
No te vale ponerle gesto audaz, ceño grave:
¡lo tendrás que hospedar!
Gasta trazas de dueño; no le ablandan excusas.
Rasga vasos de flor, hiende el hondo glaciar.
No te vale decirle que albergarlo rehúsas:
¡lo tendrás que hospedar!
Tiene argucias sutiles en la réplica fina,
argumentos de sabio, pero en voz de mujer.
Ciencia humana te salva, menos ciencia divina:
¡le tendrás que creer!
Te echa venda de lino; tú la venda toleras;
te ofrece el brazo cálido, no le sabes huir.
Echa a andar, tú le sigues hechizada aunque vieras
¡que eso para en morir!
Gabriela Mistral
I know that is not so polite to overlook or overhear the conversation of some strangers... actually I was interested in shooting this beautiful small fountain near Via Babuino but “the laws of street photography” and very “speakable” poses of those men made me break the rules of politeness, especially it was “the time of closing arguments”...
The night after a brutal storm we traveled down a very soggy path to Dunscaith Castle. Along the way we got out to see what the tide pools looked like, only to be met with some stern arguments from a local sheep who very much wanted us out of the way. In the background is Lock Eishort.
Some tea stains. So treated them and laundered. Stains all gone. But now there are different ones. Re treat and re wash. I wonder if there will be an improvement!
and arguments. In other words, I want to get married :-)

Déjà vu Books is packed with tomes on just about any subject. The title of one of the books seen here on its shelves is very apt to describe the nature of a serious bookshop: "One Long Argument".
It is one place I ALWAYS visit when in Hobart. This time I brought my camera along.
I love old bookshops, so this one had to appear in by Personal Choice Album.
A male Hooded Robin (Melanodryas cucullata) and a Yellow-plumed Honeyeater (Ptilotula ornata) earnestly discuss a matter of great importance.
Der RE6 - ein vielseitiger und einzigartiger Zug. Betrieben von der MRB mit Eurorunnern und Halberstädter Reisezugwagen. Dadurch hatte der Zwischen Chemnitz und Leipzig verkehrende Zug viel Bekanntheit in der Eisenbahnerwelt, man spricht ja von den Jufus. Mir persönlich war der Zug eigentlich nicht so wichtig, "eigentlich"! In Bayern habe ich ja schließlich noch die Überreste des Länderbahn Alex auf dem RE25 mit ähnlichem Fahrzeugeinsatz. Doch in besagter Woche, nämlich der Woche des Fahrplanwechsels, sollte sich mein Desinteresse auflösen. Die Geschichte dazu ist diesmal sogar lang und recht ungewöhnlich ;)
Die Woche vom 09.12 - 15.12 war schon von Beginn an spannend für mich. Am Donnerstag würde mein Eignungstest für die Bahn stattfinden. Mit Vorfreude und natürlich auch einem gewissen Grad an Ungewissheit sowie eine Partie Langeweile ging ich durch die Woche. In der Weihnachts- und Vorferienzeit ist in der Schule nicht viel los. So nutzte ich meine Nichts-Tuherei und schaute an einem unser Schullaptops nach dem Wetter. Ziemlich Mau, wird am Wochenende wohl nix, aber doch! Am Freitag klafft eine Lücke zwischen Leipzig und Chemnitz... Blöd nur dass ich da mit der Klasse ins Theater gehe.
Seit diesem Dienstag ließ mich der Gedanke an den RE6 nicht mehr los, ich hatte ja aus fehlendem Interesse sowieso kein Foto machen wollen. Doch diese letzte, zeitnahe Chance war schon ziemlich verlockend, "warum nicht, man lebt nur einmal?" Dachte ich mir, spontane Entscheidungen sind immer die besten! Aber meine Eltern verneinten leider den Vorschlag wegen eines Zuges die Schule sausen zu lassen. Am Mittwoch war meine Konzentration futsch. Irgendwie musste ich einfach die Sonne dort nutzen, komme was wolle! So sprach ich im Nachmittagsunterricht mit einer Lehrerin. Sie schlug vor, mit dem Schulleiter zu reden ob ich mich denn überhaupt Freistellen dürfte, denn ein "Ja" würde meine Eltern dann doch überzeugen, dachte ich mir.
Zu meiner Verwunderung kam ein Ja, zu meiner noch größeren Verwunderung kam auch ein ja von meiner Mutter. Das beste Argument war natürlich, dass das Theater am Freitag nicht so wichtig und mit dem anstehendem Prüfungstoff im Sommer nichts zutun habe, Glück gehabt!
Somit ging es für mich Mittwochabend nach München, am Donnerstag verlief der Eignungstest und dann gings schon in den Ice nach Leipzig.
Die angesagte Sonnenlücke zwischen Leipzig und Chemnitz blieb, glücklicherweise den ganzen Tag, denn der Wetterbericht hatte nämlich ein wenig geschwankt. Lange Rede, kurzer Sinn, so konnte dieses Bild und noch vier weitere entstehen.
223 055 der MRB am 74177 in Himmelhartha. Am 14.12 hieß es dann Aus für die Halberstädter Reisezugwagen, y-Steuerwagen und Dieselloks des Typs ER20!
Nun ist es vorbei mit Klotzbremsen, Drehfalttüren und Übersetzfernstern. Der Sächsische "Alex" sagt Adieu!
