This is for the Hand Embroidery section. It was a bit of a mad rush to get it finished, but I got there in the end!
After competing in the morning session I grabbed my camera and walked around the course to grab a few images of the competitors participating in the afternoon session and this is one of my local colleagues with an old school underlever spring powered air rifle.

Using parts and pieces of buildings to construct something different is a project I've wanted to work on for a very long time. After a recent (and much-needed) upgrade to the computer system, it is now something I can do. Very happy days!
Have a great weekend everyone...

From pagan fertility rituals to hallucinogenic herbs, the story of witches and brooms is a wild ride. The evil green-skinned witch flying on her magic broomstick may be a Halloween icon—and a well-worn stereotype. But the actual history behind how witches came to be associated with such an everyday household object is anything but dull. It's not clear exactly when the broom itself was first invented, but the act of sweeping goes back to ancient times, when people likely used bunches of thin sticks, reeds and other natural fibers to sweep aside dust or ash from a fire or hearth.
As J. Bryan Lowder writes , this household task even shows up in the New Testament, which dates to the first and second centuries AD.
From the beginning, brooms and besoms were associated primarily with women, and this ubiquitous household object became a powerful symbol of female domesticity..
Despite this, the first witch to confess to riding a broom or besom was a man : Guillaume Edelin.
Edelin was a priest from Saint-Germain-en-Laye, near Paris.
He was arrested in 1453 and tried for witchcraft after publicly criticizing the church's warnings about witches.
His confession came under torture, and he eventually repented, but was still imprisoned for life.
Edelin was the Prior of Saint-Germain-en-Laye, an Augustinian and a Doctor of Divinity. He promulgated the idea that it was impossible for the Devil to make pacts or witches to fly on brooms. After being arrested, he confessed that he had signed a compact with the Devil to satisfy his carnal desires, part of this being that he pretend that witchcraft was impossible. The compact was afterwards found upon his person. He also confessed that he had "done homage to the Enemy, under the form of a sheep, by kissing his posteriors," and to having gone to the Sabbath "mounted on a balai", the first reference to the use of a broomstick in connection with witchcraft
After his capture, he repented and was imprisoned for the rest of his life in the city of Évreux.

One of my favorite parts about kiteboarding is the fact that there really isn't much kiteboarder-windsurfer animosity. I mean, kiteboarding is obviously superior, so there isn't much room for anything besides a few well natured jibes ( haha! ). Everyone is just out to have fun.
As pictured here. I'm the kiteboarder, my buddy Pierce is on the windsurfer in the background. We spend the day racing each other, or just take turns in the lead so that we can show off our jumping skills, and consequently splash-making capabilities. Pretty damn nice.

Apologies for the poor quality photo but my scanner is playing up...
Photos of me from my driving days are pretty scarce so I was chuffed when my mum recently found this photo taken by my dad nearly 30 years ago.
The occasion is the Lorry Driver of the Year local qualifying round held in Manchester on glorious 7th July 1991. Urged to compete by one of my colleagues we took Liverpool Districts pair of large engined Ford Cargo 2424s and narrowly missed qualifying... Although I had been only driving for less than a year I beat my senior colleague. Although it was a fun day it was the only time I took part in the completion.
I have great fondness for this truck... I passed my HGV Test in it in August 1990 when it was just over a week old and was to become its regular driver for the next 7 years until I changed roles and shortly after the Cargo was sold on. There are a couple of photos of it on my photo stream but it also manages to appear in the background of many others....
I later passed it on the M62 in Manchester whilst it was operating still in its later BT grey for a firm in Bury, but it's tax ran out in 2004 and whilst I hope that it is safely tucked up in a shed somewhere I presume it was chopped up for its Cummins engine.
it's hard to believe where those 30 years have gone...

Now it's not often I upload a picture which isn't one of mine but this was posted on facebook recently of a scene from my childhood memory. It shows the A.1. bus stance at Parkhouse Road and the Parkhouse Garage of Ian Duff back in 1970. This is how I remember Parkhouse and the stance back in the day. I post it for a reason. Back when I was very small my party trick was that I could identify any bus in the A.1. fleet from half a mile away. This fabulous shot has five members of the A.1. fleet in view. Anybody else able to detail all five? I'll give the answer in a day or two but it'd be fun to see how many amateur detectives there are out there. Image belongs to the Pattersons of Parkhouse Garage these days.
