I'm heading east for the weekend. It looks like another cloudless weekend. I'm feeling pretty unlucky this year. I haven't been able to get out there as much as in previous years, and every time I've been out there, I couldn't bring the clouds with me.
It's a weird thing to be grumpy about. But here I am. Grumpy about a clear sky.

What can I say. A nice place for a stroll on Sunday afternoon and a brilliant place for fungi. It has some lovely trees.
The millipede may be small, but once they grew 8 feet long and were among the earliest land colonisers. Most millipedes do not have a thousand legs. One species had 1034. Grammar School Stafford UK 20th November 2021
You'd think someone at Cox corporate would have caught this on their mass-billing envelopes. Well, then again, maybe not.
Burnsall Grammar School. Built in 1601, with money from William Craven, born in Burnsall. He then went on to be Lord Mayor of London.
Designed by Augustus Pugin.
Not been inside but love the exterior. The grounds are full of interesting nature. One of the fungus species we found there is globally rare.

A healthy one. Oddly there were far fewer than the last few years and yet the very rare Powdercap Strangle appeared for the first time. The Parasite grows up through the stem and puts out a purple mushroom cap. It is much smaller than the host .

This survived several days of below freezing temperatures. I took a pic of the same fungus a week before and left the cap there.
The moss is Springy Lawn Moss and it makes this a lovely bouncy bit of grass to walk on.

The building, which was actually Bartlett’s third school building, was completed in 1909 at a total cost of around $21,000. It was located on a full city block and centered diagonally on that block. It featured ten rooms, three offices, and an auditorium. It housed all grades from 1909 until 1917, the elementary grades from 1917 through 1966, and the primary grades from 1966 until 1988.

Hawkshead Grammar School in Hawkshead, Cumbria, England was founded in 1585 by Archbishop Edwin Sandys, of York, who petitioned a charter from Queen Elizabeth I to set up a governing body. The early School taught Latin, Greek and sciences, including arithmetic and geometry. Although the School closed in 1909, the building functions today as Hawkshead Grammar School Museum and is open to the public.
Notable former pupils included William Wordsworth.
Murphys Grammar School is California’s oldest school building in continuous use as a school. Built in 1860 for $4000, it has two rooms. The entire building is 40'x60' which means it cost about $1.50/sf to build back then.
Dr Albert Michelson attended this school and later won America’s first Nobel Prize in Physics in 1907 for his work in determining the velocity of light, which later aided Einstein’s development of his relativity theories.

Metroline VW1828, BK10MFJ, on route 207 to Shepherd's Bush at Twyford Avenue in Ealing Common.
The days of seeing an apostrophe in Shepherd's Bush are over as powers up high in TfL have decreed that Shepherd's Bush is no more, and now will only ever will be Shepherds Bush without the apostrophe. This is despite the area originally belonging many years ago to a person called Mr Sheppard which, over the centuries, evolved into Mr Shepherd. However despite all this, both underground stations in the area will continue to maintain the apostrophe in Shepherd's Bush as is grammatically correct.
Anyone for consistency?
Die vier stark verwitterten, um 1807 entstandenen Figuren standen ursprünglich auf der Balustrade des Hauptziollamtes, heute Holbein-Gymnasium. Sie wurden 1967 entlang der Gartensüdmauer aufgestellt und stellen Personifikationen und Gottheiten dar, die sich auf die Tätigkeit des Hauptzollamtes bezogen.

Der Garten des Schaezlerpalais ist, wie das Palais selbst, eines der wenigen Überbleibsel der Augsburger Stadtgestalt des 18. Jahrhunderts. Er zeigt sich seit seiner Rekonstruktion im Jahr 2005 wieder als ein typischer, wenn auch später Privatgarten eines Stadtpalais, wie man sie zur Zeit seiner Entstehung häufig antraf.
Der heutige Arkadengang war vermutlich mit großen Fenstertüren geschlossen und wurde ursprünglich als Orangerie und Gewächshaus genutzt.
Die heutige Bepflanzung geht auf ein Katasterblatt und gartenarchäologische Untersuchungen zurück.

The four heavily weathered figures, created around 1807, originally stood on the balustrade of the Main Customs Office, now the Holbein Grammar School. They were placed along the south wall of the garden in 1967 and represent personifications and deities related to the activities of the main customs office.

The garden of the Schaezler Mansion, like the mansion itself, is one of the few remnants of Augsburg's 18th-century urban landscape. Since its restoration in 2005, it has once again appeared as a typical, albeit late, private garden of a city mansion, as was frequently encountered at the time of its construction.
The present arcade was probably closed with large French doors and was originally used as an orangery and greenhouse.
The present planting is based on a cadastral sheet and garden archaeological investigations.
