Traveling in Vietnam: via the Hai Van or Cloud Pass from Thừa Thiên Huế Province and the city of Da Nang in March 2024
A horse became stranded in a horsebox which ended up in a precarious position after the bed of the recovery truck failed. The Hi-ab crane on the Heavy Rescue Unit was used to stabilise the horse box which was eventually brought down to road level so the horse could be unloaded and transferred to a second horse box.
In 1981 together with some of my mates I went to the
pictures/movies in Frankston Victoria Australia to see the Film "Gallipoli" . I have always had an interest in Military history (especially Australian Military history) but that movie started an interest that has been with me ever since. In 1989 together with my mate Mike Barnes we flew to Istanbul , hired a car and drove down to Gallipoli for the ANZAC day service. We managed to Visit ANZAC , Helles and Suvla and most areas in between These are the photos I took on that trip , It hard to believe it was 30 years ago... Since then I have visited every battlefield in France and Belgium where the AIF (Australian Imperial Force) were involved and also the camps where they were based in the South of England. Please do have a look at the rest of the photos in the album. Best wishes "MO"

Sculpture in Context is the largest and most prestigious outdoor sculpture exhibition in Ireland, showcasing the work of Irish and international artists. Over the years it has staged highly acclaimed visual arts events at a number of different venues. It returns to the National Botanic Gardens in Dublin this September.
As the artists are now only installing their art I do not yet have any information relating to the items shown in this series of photographs. I hope to visit again next Thursday or Friday.
The only surviving pre-Reformation glass in the cathedral has been collected into a single window at the west end of the south aisle. It is a gorgeous display of late medieval / Renaissance glass including a composite figure of St John, four Old Testament kings from a Jesse Tree and further Old Testament scenes from the story of Susannah.
Bury St Edmunds Cathedral for most of its existence was simply the parish church of St James until the foundation of the new diocese of St Edmundsbury in 1914 when it was raised to cathedral status, one of the many new dioceses formed in the early 20th century that elevated existing parish churches to diocesan rank rather than purpose building a new cathedral. Many of these 'parish church cathedrals' sit slightly awkwardly with their new status, lacking in the scale and grandeur that befits such a title, but of all of them Bury St Edmunds has been adapted to its new role the most successfully, with in my opinion the most beautiful results.
The medieval church consisted of the present nave, built in 1503-51 under master mason John Wastell, with an earlier chancel that was entirely rebuilt in 1711 and again in 1870. Originally it would have seemed a fairly minor building at the entrance to the monastic precinct, overshadowed by the enormous abbey church that once stood immediately behind it. The absence of this magnificent church since the Dissolution and the scant remains of this vast edifice always sully my visits here with a sense of grievous loss, had history been kinder it would have served as the cathedral here instead and likely be celebrated as one of the grandest in the country.
The church never had a tower of its own since the adjacent Norman tower of the Abbey gateway served the role of a detached campanile perfectly. It is an impressive piece of Romanesque architecture and one of the best preserved 12th century towers in the country.
Upon being raised to cathedral status in 1914 the building underwent no immediate structural changes but plans were made to consider how best to transform a fairly ordinary church into a worthy cathedral. This task was appointed to architect Stephen Dykes Bower and work began in 1959 to extend the building dramatically. Between 1963-1970 the entire Victorian chancel was demolished and replaced with a much grander vision of a lofty new choir and shallow transepts, remarkably all executed in traditional Gothic style in order to harmonize with the medieval nave. It is incredible to think that this was done in the 1960s, a period in which church and cathedral buildings were otherwise constructed in the most self consciously modern forms ever seen, with delicate neo-medieval masonry in place of brick and concrete.
The new crossing of transepts and choir however remained crowned by the stump of a tower for the remainder of the century as funds were not available to finish Dykes Bower's complete vision of a lantern tower over the crossing: this was only realised at the beginning of the 21st century, aided by a legacy left in the architect's will and some subtle design changes under his successor as architect Hugh Matthews. The transformation from church to cathedral was finally completed in 2005 with most satisfactory results. A stunning fan-vault was installed within the new tower in 2010, an exquisite finishing touch.
Whilst it isn't a large building by cathedral standards its newer parts do much to give it the shape and dignity of one. This is especially apparent within, where the cruciform eastern limb draws the eye. The interior is enlivened by much colour, with the ceilings of Dykes Bower's choir and transepts adorned with rich displays of stencilling, whilst the nave ceiling (a Victorian replacement for the medieval one) was redecorated in similarly lively colours in the 1980s which helps to unify the old and new parts of the church.
Few fittings or features remain from the medieval period, most of the furnishings being Victorian or more recent, but one window in the south aisle retains a rich display of early 16th century stained glass, very much Renaissance in style. The remaining glass is nearly all Victorian, some of the windows in the new choir having been transferred from the previous chancel.
St Edmundsbury Cathedral is not filled with the monuments and fittings that make other great churches so rewarding to linger in but it is a real architectural delight and cannot fail to uplift the spirit.
By the time we reached Stresa, we didn't have a lot of time to sight-see, so we took time to have some coffee at a little cafe/bar on the street.

Pride in London Parade had 35,000 people marching. It started just after midday at Hyde Park Corner and carried on until Whitehall Place. The crowds came out on a warm partly cloudy day and packed the streets all along the route. There were stages at many locations including Trafalgar Square, Soho and Leicester Square. It was estimated that more than a million people came to watch. The parade was briefly stopped by Stop the Oil protests in front of the Coke float, this lasted 20 minutes before police came and arrested seven. This happened right in front of me.
