The company, which purchased the building in January, claimed possession of two and a half floors of the building. . . the magistrate said he was satisfied the company would suffer no financial hardship whatever, and had shown no hardship worth considering if the orders were refused. Regarding the rooms occupied by professional men, he said: ’Notwithstanding that North terrace is being gradually invaded by commercial houses, I think it can still be said that North terrace is the Harley street of Adelaide. It would be a serious loss of prestige and status to remove their surgeries to other parts of the city’.” [News 20 Jun 1947]

We took down our Christmas decorations today. The highlight was throwing a 7 foot Christmas tree out of the living room window onto the street below. The image looking down on the redundant tree was rather poignant and would have made a good Day 6 photo but I missed that opportunity.
Instead here are contents of my fridge. I took a pile of crap photos today and settled on this. Don't ask me why.

There was a little flurry of interest yesterday on the dynamo I showed in my previous photo. This is the same dynamo shown when I purchased it along with the engine. The date the slide was processed was April 1982, so this photo was taken a little while before that.

Spa gardens Oberlaa
The spa gardens Oberlaa is a park in the 10th district of Vienna Favoriten, on the southeast slope of the Laa mountain at Oberlaa. Its area is 860,000 square meters.
Horticulture monuments, path systems and artificial soil formations are listed buildings.
History
WIG 74 in the year of the opening
Monorail 1974
After the great success with the "Vienna International Garden Show 1964" (WIG 64) in the Danube Park in the 22nd district of Vienna (Danube City), the Vienna city council wanted another carrying out of an international horticultural show in Vienna. The former brick area on the southeastern slope of Laa Hill, which had also served as the location of monumental films of the silent era, was rounded off by buying gardening grounds and vineyards. It proved to be an ideal location for the project and the associated construction of a large green area. Already since 1969 there is a spa operation at the Oberlaa sulfur springs. After a competition that was tendered internationally and the Frankfurt landscape architect Erich Hanke 1969 could win, were formed working groups of landscape architects from different states. When planning and implementing the best designs of all projects were combined.
The "Vienna International Garden Show 1974" (WIG 74) became with 2.6 million visitors like its predecessor in the Danube Park a great success with the public. The press coverage but was partially extremely critical. A circulating in the park monorail proved to be a bad investment and had to be dismantled after a few years, an adjacent to it amusement park was from the beginning on loss-making. The rest of the park furniture proved, as in the case of the Danube Park, to have only a limited durability. In late 1974, the area of the garden show was eventually converted into a public park which receives wide acclaim. Other international horticultural shows, however, were not organized in Vienna, and the trend of the following years went rather away from the maintenance (and cost) intense show green toward the nature-oriented design, such as in the zone of recreational area Wienerberg.
Topics
Plan of the spa park
The spa gardens Oberlaa is divided into various subject areas to offer visitors a variety of recreational facilities.
Allergy garden
On an "Allergy Info Mile" one can learn on the display boards mounted in front of the respective plants the different pollen flights, the distribution spaces and other botanical information.
Baroque fountain garden
This fountain garden is actually the former "German Garden of Nations", it was reactivated 2001/2002 and equipped with many partly historical fountains, a brook, perennial beds and opportunities for seating.
Flower Labyrinth
The in diameter 18 m large flower maze was created in 2004. It was modeled after that one at Hellbrunn Palace (Salzburg), however, offers only one way and does not allow decision possibilities. In Vienna, there are still similar facilities, such as a maze in the park of Schönbrunn Palace and the butterfly maze in Florarium.
Film City
In the Film City were in 1920s well known silent films of the film studio Sascha-Film shot, including the epic film Sodom and Gomorrah and the Sklavenkönigin (queen of slaves). In summer, every year these productions are staged in an open-air cinema in the spa gardens.
Stone bridge in Takasakipark
Japanese Garden
The Takasakipark was the Japanese National contribution on the occasion of the TIG 1974. It was laid out by architect Kunsaku Nakame. After the TIG many National contributions were removed, however, the city of Takasaki campaigned for reconstituting of this contribution and in the 1990s it was reconstructed under the direction of architect Tadashi Ikeda.
Garden of Love
The Garden of Love was also built on the occasion of the TIG and equipped with romantic benches, swings and arbors. All originally used metals were painted in 2001 and the garden was equipped with only white flowering summer flowers, perennials, roses and shrubs. Many wedding couples have photographed themselves here.
The Skateland
In the vicinity of the playground, the beach volleyball court and the giant swing, was built an 1800-square-meter skate area. Originally, during the TIG in 1974 and in subsequent years, this area was known as the "Moon playground".
Sculpture at Rose hill 2011
Perennial garden
The perennial garden was first built for the TIG in 1974 and refurbished in 2000. Now you can find there more than 11,500 plants from 90 different genera.

It was opened in 2001 as the first barrier-free playground for also offer disabled children the opportunity to be able to play like everyone else.

Lifetime Dream # 46 of my list of 155: I will complete a list of 1,000 small things that I can do with Samantha to create precious memories, creating a stronger bond between us that will strengthen our love.
When my sister died, as one would expect… I learned a lot of things and made a lot of realizations. I like to believe that I have always appreciated life and what a gift it is. With the amount of friends and family that have died around me, I’d like to think that I appreciate life and how you can be here one day and gone the next. My sister’s death was not expected in the least…
I had a lifetime dream to own a yacht; I wanted to sail the oceans but really I thought it was a rather selfish and materialistic dream, so I decided to adopt things I learned from her death. I met my wife late in life, and I thought it would be fun to make up for lost time. So I made a list of 1,000 things that we could do as adults, that we would have experienced as kids, teens, young adults, or as the adults we are… to make up for lost time and to make the times we have a little more memorable.
Routines are terrible… it’s the new experiences that come across your path each day that really make life and time stand still. Like every relationship, we’ve had good and bad times. There are many things on the list (some simple, some pretty involved), but I hope we can complete the list in this lifetime. I don’t need getaways to some far off tropical island to enjoy life… I can do it sitting down to a new meal, or putting a puzzle together.
Pictured here was a Toy Story fest that we had on her birthday. I was able to see all of these movies in the theater with my daughter and these have always made a special bonding memory with one another. It was nice to be able to complete the series with my wife last summer; I think we were all tearing up at the end.

This is one of three Santion cars built to celebrate Listers centenary in 1990. A run of 25 were planned but at £ 250,000, 25 years ago and at a time of the late 1980's recession only three were built. This and at least one of the other two are road registered (as Listers) and also carry FIA HTP Class TSR6 papers, granted in 2009 and have also been the subject of a five page editorial in Classis and Sportscar magazine.

Although it may have been the intention to equip some of the 25 ‘Sanction’ cars planned to Works spec, ie dry sump, wide angle head (as suggested by Doug Nye and Paul Skilleter’s books) this never happened as, in the event, only 3 cars were built, and this was the first.

Synopsis
Mega roller coasters of today reach heights of over 400 feet and speeds in excess of 100 miles per hour. Roller coasters towering taller than a certain height are terrifying for many individuals but it would be boring to simply make a list of the world’s tallest coasters. As a result, most of the bone-chilling machines in this list do not use sheer height to terrify, but instead prey on our fears and emotions in other, more creative ways. One element alone may not make a ride terrifying but the sum of all of its parts does. What factors make a roller coaster terrifying? Height, speed, inversions, backwards segments, unique track elements, darkness, and unexpected surprises all contribute to making your head spin and your knees tremble. Where are the most terrifying roller coasters found? Who designs them? Which park builds the craziest rides? Find ou
Bristol Temple Meads railway station is the oldest and largest railway station in Bristol. It is an important transport hub for public transport, with bus services to many parts of the city and surrounding districts and a ferry to the city centre in addition to the train services. Bristol's other main-line station, Bristol Parkway, is on the northern outskirts of the conurbation.
It opened on 31 August 1840 as the western terminus of the Great Western Railway from London Paddington. The railway including Temple Meads was the first one designed by the British engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel. Soon the station was also used by the Bristol and Exeter Railway, the Bristol and Gloucester Railway, the Bristol Harbour Railway and the Bristol and South Wales Union Railway. To accommodate the increasing number of trains the station was expanded in the 1870s by Francis Fox and again in the 1930s by P E Culverhouse. Brunel's terminus is no longer part of the operational station. The historical significance of the station has been noted, and most of the site is Grade 1 listed.

Parish church. C15 with C14 tower; second north aisle added 1858 under the "direction" of William Slater. Vestry and boiler house C19. Restored 1858 and 1887-8. Granite and slatestone rubble with granite dressings; most of the window detail is in limestone. Boiler house is of yellow brick. Slated roofs; in 1836 the roof had dormer windows, presumably removed in the 1858 restoration. Nave, chancel, south aisle, 2 north aisles, west tower, south porch; vestry and boiler room at the east end of the north aisles. The south aisle has Perpendicular windows, each of 4 lights, in the south wall; all of them appear to be C19 restorations. The east and west windows are of 3 lights and may be partly original Perpendicular. The north windows of the north aisle are similar to those on the south; the intention in 1858 was to re-use the windows of the medieval north aisle and repair then in Caen stone, but it is not clear how far this was carried out. The east and west windows of the 2 north aisles also appear to be C19 Perpendicular, except for the east window of the medieval north aisle, which seems to be original Perpendicular with 3 cinquefoiled ogee-headed lights, although the lower part has been blocked. The north and south chancel windows are similar, apparently with original head-tracery. The same is true of the 5-light east window. The south aisle has buttresses flanking the windows and is finished with a crenellated parapet enriched with quatrefoil panels. The medieval north aisle seems to have been similarly treated, since a plain crenellated parapet survives at the east and west ends. Each of the 2 medieval aisles also has a 5-sided, crenellated stair turret at the outer corner of its west end. Chancel and south aisle have clasping buttresses at their east ends. In the south wall is a priest's door, ogee and hollow-moulded with a 2-centred head. South porch has an enriched crenellated parapet with a pinnacle on each outer corner; below each is a gargoyle carved respectively with the arms of Stawell and Forbes. The outer doorway is a C19 restoration, but the inner doorway is medieval, of heavily moulded and enriched limestone with a 2-centred head. Wooden roof of porch has heavy, intersecting moulded beams with carved bosses at the intersections; in the centre a boss with a cluster of 4 heads. Flanking the top of the inner doorway are 2 moulded limestone corbels; lower down, on the right, is a holy water stoup with ogee head. In the east wall is a plaque with the carved inscription: "The Floor of this Porch new laid, & gate made, Anno Dom 1710'. The present iron gates are C20. The tower is in 3 stages, each stage tapered and slightly narrower than the one below. In the west face of the lowest stage is a round-arched, hollow-moulded granite doorway; it is set high up, presumably as a result of the ground level being altered. Above it is a 3-light granite window with intersecting tracery; this seems to be a complete restoration. The second stage has a slit window at its base on the north, south and west sides, the south window having a pointed head. Above the slits on the south and west sides is a large black clock-face with gilded detail. The third stage (belfry) has 2 tiers of openings in each face. The lower openings are of 2 lightsd with pointed heads, the south and west openings having the lights set under a 2-centred arch. The upper openings have paired, shouldered-head lights, perhaps contemporary with the oversailing battlemented parapet and finials, all of which are C19. Interior: nave and chancel have unbroken arcades of 5 arches, the piers diamond- shaped in section with a shaft attached to each point and wave mouldings in between. Capitals foliated with several different designs, the half-columns which lie within the chancel having undercut foliage. 2-centred arches with ogee, wave, quarter-round and hollow mouldings. The 5 arches of the 1858 north arcade are copies of the original work. South door has segmental rear arch, hollow-moulded and enriched with 4-leaved flowers. Chapel at east end of south aisle has trefoil-headed piscina in south wall. Fragment of foliated masonry in south wall of chancel may be the remnant of another piscina. Nave and chancel have a wagon-roof, the older aisles flat roofs with intersecting moulded beams; all 3 roofs have large carved bosses. According to the 1858 contract the roofs were to have been rebuilt, but the bosses may have been re-used. 1858 north aisle has an arch-braced roof. A drawing of 1857 shows the nave roof with a ceilure above the rood screen. Fittings: octagonal Beer stone front, the shaft decorated with trefoil-headed panels, the bowl with quatrefoils; wooden font cover of circa 1660, in the form of an 8-sided pyramid with a large finial on top 5-sided stone pulpit of medieval work, richly carved with foliage trails separating 2-tier panels of niches containing figures; C20 paint may cover ancient colours, base probably C19. Late C15 brass lectern, believed to be East Anglian work; consists of large eagle with wings outstretched, standing on a moulded pillar with 3 small lions at the foot. Eagle's claws restored 1912. C15 timber rood screen across nave and old aisles was restored in 1887, when the missing vaulting was made, and again in 1910. Dado has almost complete set of painted figures in ogee-headed cinquefoil panels (those of the chancel doors late C19 or early C20). Open tracery above of Pevsner's 'Type A'. Trail enrichment of loft believed to be ancient in part. With the exception of the figures, visible paint is circa 1910, but may conceal some ancient colour. Parclose screens of first half C16 have two ogee-headed cinquefoil lights with doorways at east end and doors of 1907 (inscription). On south side of chancel, against parclose screen, 3 medieval stalls with misericords. At east end of the 1858 aisle an organ with painted pipes, installed in 1887-8. Monuments: on north side of chancel is the monument to Nicholas Eveleigh (d.1618) in white limestone. Consists of a figure propped up on one elbow; beneath it an ornately carved chest, above it a high round arch flanked by Corinthian columns. Immediately above this, figure is a tablet carved with the inscription '1620 1D'. On south side of chancel is the monument of Elizaeus Hele (d.1636) in alabaster. Similar in design to Eveleigh's monument, but with less ornate detail; flanking columns are of grey marble. On front of the chest are the kneeling figures of his son and 2 wives. On the floor of nave and aisles several good C17 ledger slabs. Sources: church guidebook.

The Grade I listed Worcester Cathedral which before the English Reformation was known as Worcester Priory. In Worcester, Worcestershire.
It is the seat of the Bishop of Worcester and its official name is The Cathedral Church of Christ and the Blessed Mary the Virgin of Worcester. Built between 1084 and 1504, Worcester Cathedral represents every style of English architecture from Norman to Perpendicular Gothic. It is famous for its Norman crypt and unique chapter house, its unusual Transitional Gothic bays, its fine woodwork and its "exquisite" central tower, which is of particularly fine proportions.
What is now the Cathedral was founded in 680 as a Priory, with Bishop Bosel at its head. The first priory was built in this period, but nothing now remains of it. The crypt of the present-day cathedral dates from the 10th century and the time of St Oswald, Bishop of Worcester. The monastery became Benedictine in the second half of the tenth century. The Priory came to an end with King Henry VIII's Dissolution of the Monasteries, and the Benedictine monks were removed on 18 January 1540 and replaced by secular canons. Following the Dissolution of the Monasteries, the former Priory was re-established as a cathedral of secular clergy. In the 1860s the cathedral was subject to major restoration work planned by Sir George Gilbert Scott and A. E. Perkins.
Worcester Cathedral embodies many features that are highly typical of an English medieval cathedral. Like the cathedrals of Salisbury and Lincoln, it has two transepts crossing the nave, rather than the single transept usual on the Continent. This feature of English Cathedrals was to facilitate the private saying of the Holy Office by many clergy or monks. Worcester is also typical of English cathedrals in having a chapter house and cloister. To the north side of the cathedral is an entrance porch, a feature designed to eliminate the draught which, prior to the installation of modern swing doors, would blow through cathedrals whenever the western doors were open. Worcester Cathedral's tower was constructed in the Perpendicular style is described by Alec Clifton-Taylor as "exquisite" and is seen best across the River Severn.
The earliest part of the building at Worcester is the multi-columned Norman crypt with cushion capitals remaining from the original monastic church begun by St Wulfstan in 1084. Also from the Norman period is the circular chapter house of 1120, made octagonal on the outside when the walls were reinforced in the 14th century. The nave was built and rebuilt piecemeal and in different styles by several different architects over a period of 200 years, from 1170 to 1374, some bays being a unique and decorative transition between Norman and Gothic. The oldest parts show alternate layers of green sandstone from Highley in Shropshire and yellow Cotswold limestone.
The east end was rebuilt over the Norman crypt by Alexander Mason between 1224 and 1269, coinciding with, and in a very similar Early English style to Salisbury Cathedral. From 1360 John Clyve finished off the nave, built its vault, the west front, the north porch and the eastern range of the cloister. He also strengthened the Norman chapter house, added buttresses and changed its vault. His masterpiece is the central tower of 1374, originally supporting a timber, lead-covered spire, now gone. Between 1404 and 1432 an unknown architect added the north and south ranges to the cloister, which was eventually closed by the western range by John Chapman, 1435–38. The last important addition is Prince Arthur’s Chantry Chapel to the right of the south choir aisle, 1502–04.
