:( Was so disappointed when I open the tin. I wish that all of them could have been wrapped. Oh well they still smell good and taste good.
French poster.First meeting between Alec Guinness and director David Lean. Based on the novel by Charles Dickens
The sky is very normal today and I never expected to get such colors and drama … But then somehow I got lucky.
To me happiness is when I get more than I expected and ever more so when you just don’t expect anything and get much more … On the other hand expectation is the key to all sorrows in life … But, can we really control this?
This is another mood of the snap here
There are many things I would do different with this piece. It's still worth showing though, it represents my S-I-L who I adore and my nephew - the sweetest boy ever. You may see this picture again though...

Our 4 year old daughter wanted a princess party and instead of your "typical" Disney Princess party we opted to search the internet and came upon your site. Our difficulties was in locating same size boxes (everyone "recycles" them for $$$, tried your suggestions, but being on a island it was not possible), we were finally able to secure large boxes in varying sizes (we had to reattach the boxes to make them rectangle and reinforce them on the interiors, they were broken down). Construction of the castle was relatively simple, accept w/varying size boxes it make the task a little more cumbersome. The rivets made it really really easy to put together and remove.
After laying out the castle, completion of the castle was "simple" based on your plans. It took us longer to paint and put the finishing touches on the castle than specified on your website (but as you can see were were very "meticulous" in our processing). But the end result was "spectacular" and way beyond our expectations. It took a crew of 6 1/2 people to complete this castle....the royal staff (i send u our pix):
King Ronnie, Castle Builder & Engineer, aka "slowpoke"
Queen Leslene, Castle Designer & Painter, aka "meticulous"
Princess Ashlyne, Castle Painter, aka "munchkin"
Lady Suzanne, Castle Desginer & Planner & Painter, aka "perfectionist"
Lady Tricia, Castle Painter & Artist (she drew up the emblems), aka "whatevers"
Lady Lori, Castle Painter, aka "no bother me"
Knight Shon, Castle Painter & Spackler, aka "no way"
We had so much FUN doing this project, I'd do it again and again...thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion with the world....our royal family, staff, knights, princesses, princes, fairies, etc. all enjoyed the castle and cannot stop talking about the party.
Enjoy the pix i send you will be shocked at the amount of extra labor we did, but all well worth it.....Mahalo & Aloha, Collado Family (King Ronnie, Queen Leslene & Princess Ashlyne).
FYI - everyone that passed our home had to stop and "inquire" on the castle and most people said it looked like for a theater play vs. a princess party. Our hats off to your design concept and Rivets.
PSSS - we will be donating the castle to our daughter preschool for their halloween party, they insisted that we give it to them after seeing the pix of the party.
PSSS - disassemly was simple and fast and we also folded the boxes flat and can actually store the castle.
This is a photograph from the 35th Michael Manning Memorial "Dunshaughlin 10KM" Road Race and Fun Run which took place in Dunshaughlin, Co. Meath, Ireland on Saturday 21st June 2014 at 19:30. This race is widely acknowledged in the running community as one of the best races in Ireland. It is also one of the oldest 10KM races in Ireland. The numbers for this race have exceeded expectations year on year for the past number of years. In 2008 a record field of 306 took to the start line but by 2012 this number had more than doubled with 647 runners taking part. The starting numbers in 2013 topped this again at 668. Then this year the numbers rocketed to a new record of 883. Who knows but this race could reach 1,000 entrants next year. The work of the organising committee must be commended on making this event possible. The Dunshaughlin 10KM has earned it's place at the top of the pedestal of Irish running through the sheer hard work of Dunshaughlin AC over the years. Well done to all.
We have an extensive set of photographs from the race tonight taken at the 1 mile mark and then at the 400M and 600M to go mark. The full set is available at: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157645329098733/

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!

I attended the Carnival in Mazatlan in February 2009 with very high expectations. I heard it was on the same level as Venice, Rio, and New Orleans, but that was wishful thinking. Mazatlan was great, not so sure about the Carnival. I love Mexico and the Carnival incorporated many qualities of Mexican life - it was chaotic, slightly disorganized, but it all came together in a comical sort of way and everyone enjoyed it. There are two parades - the first one goes along the Malecon in one direction, two days later the same parade does the same route in the other direction with the same cast. In both cases the parade was plagued by breakdowns, so frequently there was a big queue while a tractor was being fixed, and then once it was fixed there was a mad rush of all the backed-up paraders running to catch up with the main parade. I was also amazed by the number of tour buses and beer floats in the parade - never saw that before. The parade is hard to photograph since it started toward twilight and lasted into the night. Overall it was an interesting experience.
For many years, during the September photo-fest that is Open House London, we try to see inside St Mary at Hill, and every year it is not open.
It is open daily during the week, but for those who work and live out of the city, this really does not help. Unless one is passing through and can spare half an hour to travel along the Circle Line to visit.
This is what I did on Tuesday, en route to the airport, and it was indeed open as you can see.
Therefore with about 5 years of anticipation, it would be a spectacular church that lived up to those expectations. And as St Mary is little other than a shell of a building, stripped of almost all furnishings and trappings of a church,
It is roughly share, and a tricky subject for the nifty fifty, and as I did not have my other camera with the Sigma, I did my best.
----------------------------------------------
The urban context first, for this church is set as many City churches must have been in the years before the Blitz. From the west, the tower stands in the slow curve of Lovat Lane, leading from Cheapside down to Eliot's erstwhile fishmen of Billingsgate lounging at noon. It is easy to imagine the precocious Betjeman wandering down the lane as a schoolboy, summoned by the evensong bells to the twilit delights of the Book of Common Prayer. The east end of the church is flush in the street line of the road which takes its name from the church, and the name itself is writ large below the east window. A doorway under a portico with its skull and crossed bones leads through to the small burial ground.
St Mary at Hill was once one of the least spoiled of the City churches, and the only one to survive the Blitz with a full set of box pews intact. Worship here was a last taste of how the City churches were before the German bombs changed the City forever. And then in 1988 there was an arson attack which destroyed the ceiling. The furnishings mostly survived, and were placed in store while the roof and ceiling were restored. In 1998, Simon Bradley in the revised Pevsner lamented that most of the notable woodwork remains in store. Its full restoration is an urgent priority. Almost twenty years on this still has not happened, and you step into a great open space which feels much larger than it actually is. The missing furnishings were all of a piece, dating from Wren's rebuilding of 1670-74, refurbished and added to in 1848 by W Gibbs Rogers who Pevsner complimented as his work could hardly be distinguished from the original. I have no idea why they have not been returned. Does someone know? Perhaps they will contact me and tell me.
The west screen is still in situ, there are some good glass roundels which remember the other churches which once stood in the modern parish, and the great chandelier has no distractions from its glory. But otherwise this is an empty shell, the skeleton of a church waiting for its flesh, blood and soul to be restored to it.

St Mary-at-Hill is an Anglican parish church in the Ward of Billingsgate, City of London and is situated on Lovat Lane, a cobbled street off Eastcheap. Coordinates: 51.510069°N 0.08374°W
Originally founded in the 12th century,[1] it was first known as "St. Mary de Hull" or "St. Mary de la Hulle".[2] It was severely damaged in the Great Fire of London in 1666, afterwards being only partially rebuilt and has been much altered since, although some of its mediaeval fabric survives.
The Church of St Mary-at-Hill is situated among some of the City's most ancient lanes: St Mary at Hill EC3, in which has a large double-faced clock extending several feet into the street and which provides the best view of the church's elegant exterior; a narrow alleyway running alongside, but with no right of way; and, its entrance on Lovat Lane EC3, its postal address.
St Mary-at-Hill dates to 1336. The north aisle was rebuilt at the end of the 15th century, and a south aisle and steeple were added a little later. John Stow, writing at end of the 16th century, described it as "the fair church of Saint Marie, called on the Hill, because of the ascent from Billingsgate".
The Great Fire of 1666 started in the neighbouring street of Pudding Lane severely damaging the church.[3] After the blaze, the parish of St Mary's was united with that of St Andrew Hubbard, whose church was not rebuilt.
Sir Christopher Wren rebuilt the church's interior and east end, managing to retain its medieval walls on the other three sides, and the west tower to which he added a lantern. Wren included in his design a venetian window at the east end, now blocked up, and a pediment, now broken. His interior displays four free-standing corinthian columns, supporting barrel vaults in a Greek cross pattern, and a coffered central dome. The church is 96 ft long and 60 ft wide.[4]
A hoard of coins (now known as the Mary Hill Hoard) was found in a basement near St Mary-at-Hill in the 18th century.[5] The hoard included the only known example of a coin from the Horndon mint.
There have been considerable further alterations since the 17th century. In 1787–88, George Gwilt rebuilt the west wall and replaced the tower in brick and in 1826–27 James Savage installed round-headed iron-framed windows in the north wall and replaced the vaults, ceilings and plasterwork. In 1848–49 he added a cupola to the dome and cut windows through the chancel vault. In 1849, the 17th century wooodwork was sympathetically augmented and adapted by W. Gibbs Rogers. In 1904 the church's parish was united with that of St George Botolph Lane, and St Mary-at-Hill received the sword rests, plate, royal arms, ironwork, organ and organ case from St George.[6]
The church survived the Blitz unscathed but was severely damaged by a fire in 1988, after which its roof and ceiling required rebuilding. Much of the woodwork, including box pews, was unable to be reinstated.[1]
Writing before St Mary's 1988 fire, John Betjeman said of the church: "This is the least spoiled and the most gorgeous interior in the City, all the more exciting by being hidden away among cobbled alleys, paved passages, brick walls, overhung by plane trees…"[7]
The church was designated a Grade I listed building on 4 January 1950.[8] On the street St Mary at Hill, there is an adjacent Grade II brick and stone rectory of 1834 designed by James Savage, incorporating a vestry of the late 17th century.
