As cold as it has been, I figured I might as well add some heat to the place!

This wintering butterfly suddenly appeared on the inside of my double glazed window. Central heating woke it up for a while. It was freezing outside so I kept it indoors.
The smokestack of a wood chip burning facility that provides central heating to the buildings in the area. Smoke is so beautiful to look at and this composition just screamed "photograph me!". What else am I going to do?

Wasn't expecting the first hoverfly of 2016 quite yet, and certainly not this species. I've never seen one before May before, so finding this in the kitchen today was really unexpected. Presumably it had been developing in the amaryllis bulb on the kitchen window-sill (it was outside in the summer), and a combination of central-heating and an unusual sunny windowsill had coaxed it out early. I feel guilty now....

Constructed in 1926 and revitalized in 2018, the historic Wagg Building is located near the corner of Datura Street and Olive Avenue.
Tuesday, July 16, 2019
The 1925 Alfred H. Wagg Corporation Building - commonly called the "Wedding Cake Building" - officially became a downtown West Palm Beach historic landmark on July 15.
The West Palm Beach City Commission unanimously approved the designation of the Wagg Building, located at 215 South Olive Avenue, as a municipal landmark property on the city's "Local Register of Historic Places" during its regular meeting.
The Wagg Building is a five-story Mediterranean Revival-style commercial building, designed by the local architectural firm of Harvey and Clarke, and built by contractor J.S. Wilson. The building was dedicated in March 1926 during a ceremony hosted by its civic-minded owner, Alfred Hoppock Wagg II, and served as the headquarters for his real estate and development company during the 1920's land boom era in Florida.
The office building earned the nickname of the "Wedding Cake Building" from its intricate molding and unique exterior detailing. The architects used the University Building in Salamanca, Spain, as a model and inspiration for the Wagg Building.
In its recommendation for approval as a city landmark, city staff reported, "Specifically, the building is at least 50 years old, it is associated with events that have made significant contribution to the broad patterns of the city's history, it embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period or method of construction..."

This old boiler in an abandoned greenhouse was used to maintain a constant temperature in the greenhouse throughout the year, for many years. Now it is nothing but a pile of rubble.

A booklet produced for The South Western Gas Board by Glovers Advertising Ltd. to promote the Board's Two-Part Tariff - with the help of Mr Therm. n.d. [c. 1958]
Brochure entitled 'La Douceur du Foyer' published by COMPAGNIE NATIONALE des RADIATEURS, Paris. 1933. The front cover has a cut out oval window producing a vignette of the scene in the title page beneath. There is quite a bit of foxing to this but although the pale colours in the central area of the page visible here might appear to be the result of exposure to strong sunlight, they are in fact no different to those in that portion that is hidden from view.

An advert in The Architectural Review for April 1951 for the Birmingham concern of Hope’s Heating and Engineering of Birmingham. The company was an offshoot of the long established Henry Hope & Co Ltd of neighbouring Smethwick who were manufacturer’s of architectural metalwork and glazing systems. Interestingly this advert is in the strong ‘corporate style’ adopted by Hope’s with a considered use of typeface and typographical layout.

Page from "Central Heating by Gas", a free booklet published by Odhams Ltd. and The Gas Gouncil. 1960
Illustration from booklet 'Le SURDIAC CENTRAL Sa raison d'être et son origine'. [cover title: Le Secret du Confort Menager] by Les FONDERIES et ATELIERS MÉTALURGIQUES ST-ELOI de Forest-Bruxelles. 1934
Advertising brochure issued by the National Coal Board and the Coal Utilisation Council in 1963 as part of the NCB Housewarming Plan information folder, 'How to Have Better Heating'. This particular leaflet describes the benefits of partial central heating from a solid fuel fire and boiler unit.
Please bare with me as this story is not an easy one.
I was invited by an aquaintance to join him on an organised photoshoot.The photoshoot was apparently held every year and organised by a dutch photography service run by dutch photographer Hugo fermont (www.fotograficus.nl)
Photographers and models could get together in a small village called "Doel" in Belgium and which lies close to the dutch border in the midst of the great Harbour of Antwerp ( Belgium) (Antwerpen in Flemish/Dutch).Now this village is about to dissapear and a big part of it has already been demolished.Now you have to take in account that people still live there ! If your interested in the perrils of the people of "Doel" and in the turmoil it caused in the belgian press and with the public oppinion see : www.doel2020.org
The village has to dissapear because of the expansion of the port of Antwerp.
Exactly the same has happened in the late fifties, early sixties with other villages in the vicinity of Doel.
So history always repeats itself and lately it does so faster and faster.
Suggestions have been made to turn Doel in an art/artist's village and preserve it thusly : www.kunstdoel.net/en
Or otherwise "Old stop-cock and Ball Saga".
We have just endured the coldest 12 days of Winter due to a major Central Heating failure. Not of our own making but merely the major British company that we pay an awful lot of money every month to ensure such things will not occur not having kept their side of the contract.
Every major component had a major failure because they ignored my reports and those of their own technicians over an eleven-year period.
We have had to pay a very large sum of money to an excellent honest small local firm that has the know-how to sort out big urgent problems in the shortest amount of time.
