Glanmore was completed in 1883 for John Philpot Curran Phillips. The building was designed by Thomas Hanley, a Belleville architect who was born in Read.
This impressive yellow brick house reflects the architectural style of the eclectic Second Empire. It features an irregular shape, with bay windows and projections; iron cresting outlining the main roof; a coloured, fish-scale pattern of slates on the concave mansard roof; wide eaves supported on carved brackets, and the original wooden eavest roughs. Stone trimmed windows and doorways have semi-circular and elliptical heads, and wood trim ornaments the semi circular heads of the dormers windows
It sprout, it grew, it blossomed, it got pollenated, now the seeds are ready for the wind to blow, birds to carry...mission completed.

"Kether is the Malkuth of the Unmanifest.
The limitless ocean
of negative light does not proceed from a centre, for it is centreless, but it concentrates a
centre, which is the number One of the manifested Sephiroth, Ketlier, the Crown, the
First Sephirah."
I'm sorry for the delay but I was very busy at work... Finally I can show you the transformation from tadpole to toad complete. A centimeter of beauty!
In the easter day I freed 3 of these in the field near the pond where I found them and I'm waiting that the last two tadpoles have finished the metamorphosis to free them also!

You have to enlarge the image and look closely to make out the thin "hairs" around the head of this hair-crested drongo (dicrurus hottentottus). Photographed in Kanchanaburi, Thailand.
Last night I went to see A Complete Unknown, the new Bob Dylan Biopic. I'd heard wonderful things about this movie and it did not disappoint. I adored it. The sherpa and I were the only ones in the cinema which meant that I could sing very loudly and applaud all the songs. I felt like part of his audience. The opening scene is one where Bob Dylan goes to meet his hero Woody Guthrie who lay very sick in a New Jersey hospital. He plays him a song called "Song to Woody", written in 1962. The last couplet in the following verse really stood out to me.
Hey, hey Woody Guthrie, I wrote you a song
'Bout a funny ol' world that's a-comin' along
Seems sick and it's hungry, it's tired and it's torn
It looks like it's a-dyin' and it's hardly been born
I leaned across to the Sherpa and remarked how fitting those last two lines feel for our times. In fact it was a thought that surfaced often while listening to Dylan’s songs throughout the movie. Which brings me back to this image in Thailand, and, really, the entire trip.
The simplicity of island life stood in contrast to the complexities and horrors of the outside world. Life there may not be easy, (it looked really hard to me!) but everyone has a role—the women, the men, even the children—and there’s a quiet dignity in that. They don’t have much, living in humble wooden shelters, often pieced together from large bits of driftwood. Yet, there’s a warmth that comes from their sense of community.
Most people on the island know one another, and life is built on connection and mutual support. They help each other, woven together by shared purpose rather than individual ambition. I think that’s one of the most profound things we’ve lost in many parts of the world, the shift from community to self-interest, from collective well-being to personal gain.
Nothing could be more evident than what is happening in the USA.
Anyway, do you self a favour and see the movie and forgive my rambling!
St George in the East
Situated in Cannon Street Road, Whitechapel, London E1 0BH.
It was built between 1714 and 1729 with the funding from an Act of Parliament. It is one of the six London churches designed and built by famous architect Nicholas Hawksmoor.
The church was very expensive to build, at the cost of nearly £20k, it was designed to seat over 1,000 people.
In and around 1800, major work was done on the entrance steps. In 1820 a new vault was added, also the churchyard was drained. In 1829 the church was re-roofed. In 1871, box pews were removed in order to install new seating.
In 1880, 5 Venetian glass mosaics were installed in the apse, illustrating passion and resurrection scenes. The organ which was in poor state had to be rebuilt and between 1881-1886 this was completed by the firm Gray and Davidson.
In 1941 during the blitz the church received a direct hit from a bomb. The interior was destroyed by a severe fire that swept through the building. Fortunately the walls and towers survived intact. The mosaics were also saved but had to be restored.
A new interior was completed in 1964, designed by Arthur Bailey. The design, a much more simple plan.
Scenes from the film ‘The Long Good Friday’ were filmed in and around the churchyard.

Well done to all of us, we made it!
Little Bear just completed the puzzle and is so happy, putting that last piece in was always the best.
Completed in 1810 by John Rennie, the spectacular Dundas Aqueduct carries the Kennet & Avon Canal over the River Avon and is a Scheduled Monument. It was the first canal structure to be designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument in 1951.
Named after Charles Dundas, the first chairman of the Kennet and Avon Canal Company, the aqueduct forms the junction between the Kennet and Avon Canal and the largely derelict Somerset Coal Canal. The short stretch of the Somerset Coal Canal still in water forms Brassknocker Basin, used for boat moorings, cycle hire and a cafe. A short walk further there is the Dundas Wharf where the small tollhouse, warehouse and crane still stand.

Completed in 1916 this neo-gothic dam holds back the Derwent reservoir, Derbeyshire. However, the
reservoir is perhaps most famous for being the location that the RAF 617 Squadron - or The Dambusters - used to practice their techniques prior to using their bouncing bombs on the Ruhr dams of Germany.
The Copernicus crater in the center of the image. Next to it, the Carpatus Mountains and, higher up, the Erathostenes crater. The almost imperceptible outline of the Stadius, towards the end of Erthostenes towards Copernicus, and Sinus Aestuum complete the lunar landscape.
