St George Tombland, near the entrance to Norwich Cathedral Close, is one of the city's grandest medieval churches and happily also still in use as a parish church.
The building dates mainly to the 15th century and consists of a tall west tower, nave flanked by aisles and chancel. The furnishings are mainly 19th century and later, though the large 18th century reredos has been retained behind the high altar.
There are some small pieces of medieval glass surviving though the bulk of the windows are Victorian. Some notable exceptions are the beautiful 1930s Magnificat by Morris & Co in the south aisle and two eccentric and strikingly coloured 'kaleidoscopic' geometric windows on the north side (1867).
I had never previously found this church open on my visits to the city but believe it is open to visitors more regurlarly nowadays.
For more information on this fine church see Simon Knott's entry on his superb Norfolk Churches website below:-

This cabinet card is one of twelve photographs given to me on February 20, 2015, by the owner of the Champlain Valley Antique Center in Shelburne, Vermont. He asked if I wanted them and I declined.
I had plenty of research to do, and one of the photos mentioned that the subject had no heirs. He then gave them to me saying they had been given to him, so he didn't consider it a loss. I believe all twelve photo-subjects are members of the Christman family, owners of the Christman Sons Piano Company of New York City. The company operated from the latter half of the nineteenth century to the early twentieth century and produced an line of upscale pianos. These pianos today are physical testimony to the quality and craftsmanship of their work. See one/hear one in action. ...or Für Elise?
The annotation on the back of this photograph claims the subject is George Christman. He first appeared at eight years old in the 1880 New York City census, the son of Peter and Caroline Christman. He was still living with his parents in the 1900 Manhattan Borough census, along with his sister, Carrie. As noted in the trade journal link above, George became president of the Christman Sons Piano Co. According to the 1910 and 1930 censuses, he was single, living with the Peineckes, his sister and brother-in-law. However, one trade journal article showed him in a photograph with Mrs. Christman and a boy described as George Christman Jr., heir. This prompted me to search harder for him in the 1920 census. I found him in the 1920 Hudson County, Weehawken, New Jersey census as the son-in-law of Barabara Peppler, widow. With him was his wife, Ida R. Christman, age 27, and son, George Jr., age 6. Ida R. Peppler Christman died January 21, 1922.
I am seeking descendants.

ST. GEORGE'S, BERMUDA. St. George's Cricket Club batsman Jason Anderson (right) awaits a ball as assistant coach Wendell Smith (rear) watches during practice at the St. George's Cricket Club in St. George's, Bermuda on Tuesday, July 26, 2011. St. George's will host Somerset in the annual two-day cricket tournament known as Cup Match beginning Thursday. Cup Match was introduced after the abolition of slavery in Bermuda. Men from Somerset and St. George’s met in a friendly rivalry and held celebrations of Emancipation by holding annual picnics to mark the anniversary of the abolition of slavery. One of the highlights from the picnics was a friendly cricket match played between lodges from the east and west ends of the island. In 1901, during a cricket match between two major Friendly Societies, an agreement was made to play for an annual trophy. Members of the Friendly Societies and Lodges raised funds and in 1902 a silver cup that was played for annually was introduced. © www.chetgordon.com/blog

This was taken out of my hotel window in the city of George Town, Malaysia. The thick haze stayed over the city for most of my stay there. From here you can usually see the harbor. The dome in the foreground is part of a major shopping mall that was being renovated at the time

The tragic and unjust murder of George Floyd on May 25, 2020 caused a tidal wave of anger, frustration, and action to address systemic police brutality and racism in our community, state, country, and world.
I'm embarrassed to say that this happened very near to my home. In fact, it took me well over a month to visit the memorial site where Mr. Floyd uttered his last words, "I can't breathe" at 38th & Chicago in Minneapolis, MN.
The pain and suffering are still apparent, but out of the ashes emerges a new feeling of activism and awareness. I can only hope that the energy around this tragedy leads to positive things.
