... "de Klim"
Het Nationaal Donor Monument bestaat uit het beeld 'de Klim'. Het staat symbool voor enerzijds een getransplanteerde die dankzij zijn donor naar een nieuw leven klimt en anderzijds een nabestaande die uit een dal van verdriet klimt doordat de overleden donor in iemand anders voortleeft. Het monument is ontworpen door Egbert Hermsen en uitgevoerd door kunstenaar Ben Overkamp. Het monument bevindt zich bij de Grote Kerk van Naarden.

I gave blood today, so I really wasn't up for much. I am a frequent donor and it is something I believe everyone should do at least once, because less than 30% of the people who give blood once will ever give blood again.
I seem to recall Western were involved in preparing Clydeside's Routemasters for service ..Not sure how many spare RM,s were acquired for parts only. Anyway these three examples have been stripped of their glass and other panels
Having just read George Watson's excellent book on Clydeside Scottish the figures mentioned purchasing surplus Routemasters were relatively cheap..£2,500 for a roadworthy MOT'd bus , £500 -1000 for a scrapper that had to be capable of driving to Scotland under it's own steam ..these prices included the cherished numbers. Once stripped of all the useful parts the RM carcass had a scrap value of £1000 ..so it was a no lose situation .
WOW! We got an Explore. #467. Thanks all :-)
World Blood Donor Day is celebrated June 14th every year. It is an opportunity to express gratitude to those who donate their blood in order to save lives, without expecting anything in return.
I am eternally grateful for the 4 units I received just over 4 years ago. Sadly, I am no longer able to donate myself now, but I hope the units that I gave in the past were equally useful to someone, somewhere.
Millions of people owe their lives to people they will never meet – people who donate their blood freely and without any reward.
Voluntary unpaid donors are the foundation of a safe blood supply because they are least likely to transmit potentially life-threatening infections, such as HIV and hepatitis viruses, to the recipients of their blood. It is to these unsung heroes that World Blood Donor Day is dedicated.
Facts about giving blood:
- Donating blood is quick and easy
- Most people can give blood
- You can give blood every 16 weeks
- Giving blood will not harm your health
- You will donate just under a pint each time
- Donated blood is quickly replaced by your body

Photography is not a crime, unless it is really really bad, like HDR bad, like vomit in a charity shop bad, like every exposure posted as if every ounce of your genius is a gift to the world bad, like you have thousands of pounds worth of equipment and all you do is click away at the back of people's heads or out-of-focus frosted twigs bad. Then those indeed are monumental crimes.

Terry Rowing of TRAC engineering built up a business restoring the SS 90 and SS 100. In 1991 he created a small batch of replica SS 100's using moulds taken from Adrian Newey's 3½-Litre while he was restoring it for Adrian to use for navigational rallying., and utilising modern mechanics from a Jaguar XJ 6 (Engine, Gearbox, Axles, Suspension Steering and Brakes) built into a new chassis and a recreated turn key body of exact dimensions and appearance
This vehicle was built using a 1981 Jaguar XJ6 4.2ltr asthe donor vehicle
In 1995 Roger Williams of Suffolk Sportscars. Bury St. Edmunds, Suffolk purchased the manufacturing rights The car is accepted by the Jaguar Drivers Club as a historic replica and is also available with catalytic converter and left hand drive. Roger recently acquired the Swallow Coachbuilding Co. (1935) Ltd, which was the remant of the old company once Willliam Lyons had created SS Jaguar, giving Suffolk Sportscars the rights to use the old SS wing logo, rather than the Jaguar lozenge, which JLR/Tata Motors jelously protect.

86251 and 90050 are owned by Freightliner and are currently stored at Basford Hall yard and are used as spares donors for other locos.
86251 still bears the livery of it's previous operator, Virgin Trains. Virgins' Class 86's were withdrawn as the Pendolino fleet began entering service in the early 2000's. 86251 is one of the last 86/2's to still exist in the UK. (86259 is another and is preserved in full working order. 86213 was preserved in the UK but has since been exported for use in Bulgaria. 86229 was another spares donor at Basford hall but has now been cut up)
90050 suffered a fire in the early 2000's while hauling a freight train, which severely damaged the loco to the point it was deemed uneconomical to repair and was withdrawn from service.
I managed to photograph it by sticking my camera in the air over the fence and using the screen as the viewfinder. Not too bad considering the situation I must say!
St Mary's at Haseley is quite small, a simple nave and chancel with a west tower, the details Perp or later Tudor though much of the actual fabric is Norman. Inside it has a nice, unrestored feel with only the east wall and window (along with the ill-fitting neo-norman porch) betraying Victorian intervention. The nave's wagon roof is old, as is the font, in which Charles Wesley's grandfather was baptised, thus I was told the church is a kind of birthplace of Methodism! In the chancel is a plain tomb with small but fine brasses to Clement Throckmorton and his family (d.1573). There is fragmentary heraldic glass above the tomb, but the best survival in my opinion is the late medieval glass in the tracery of the west window which includes several complete small figures.
St Mary's is normally kept locked outside of services with no keyholder listed so best to pre-arrange to see inside.
Another donor. This time its just the windows that are needed to go in another Standard [Long story!]
Once the swap has taken place this may be stripped back and repainted or used as a source of spares for other projects that are ongoing.
