101st Airborne Re-enactors at a prepared sanbagged position at the 1940's weekend in Howarth, W Yorks
2013-08-18 Sichtbar werden mit Folie Gradinger, Tipp3-Bundesliga powered by T-Mobile, 5. Runde, FC Admira Wacker Mödling vs. SK Rapid Wien Endstand 2:0 (1:0), Maria Enzersdorf, Trenkwalder-Arena, 7224 Zuschauer, Schiedsrichter Alexander Harkam, Photografer Gerhard Möhsner, Bilderdatenbank Fotoblitz hier klicken
Toller Heimsieg gegen Rapid! Zum Abschluss der fünften Runde der tipp3-Bundesliga powered by T-Mobile hat der FC Admira Wacker Mödling den ersten Sieg in der laufenden Saison gefeiert. Die Admira gewinnt vor heimischen Publikum 2:0. Mit diesem Sieg hat die Admira auch das Tabellenende verlassen.
Dank eines sehenswerten Treffers von Wilfried Domoraud (36.) und einem Tor von Rene Schicker in der Nachspielzeit (92.) kam Oliver Lederer in seinem zweiten Match als Admira-Cheftrainer zum ersten vollen Erfolg. Bei seiner Premiere hatte es zu einem 1:1 gegen Sturm Graz gereicht.
Lederer durfte also auch das zweite Spiel als Nachfolger von Toni Polster zu Hause in der Südstadt bestreiten. 7.224 Zuschauer hatten bei hochsommerlichen Verhältnissen den Weg in die BSFZ-Arena. Die Zuseher sahen in der zehnten Minute die erste gefährliche Aktion von Rapid. Guido Burgstaller wurde vom wiedergenesenen Kapitän Steffen Hofmann mit einem Steilpass in Richtung Admira-Goalie Andreas Leitner geschickt.
Verteidiger Thomas Ebner erwischte den Rapid-Offensivmann gerade noch rechtzeitig mit einem Tackling von hinten. Da er dabei klar den Ball spielte, gab Schiedsrichter Alexander Harkam den gemäßigten Elfmeterreklamationen der Grün-Weißen nicht nach. Ohne weitere Torchancen oder nennenswerte Vorteile für ein Team lief die auf überschaubarem Niveau stehende Partie bis zur 25. Minute im Stile eines Freundschaftsspiels. Dann war es wieder Burgstaller, der zum zweiten Mal in den Admira-Strafraum eintauchte.
Obwohl er die gute Gelegenheit verstolperte, gelangte der Ball am Sechzehner doch noch zu Louis Schaub. Der Rapid-Youngster zog mit Links ab, doch Leitner war auf dem Posten. Bei einem von Hofmann (30.) in den Strafraum gezirkelten Freistoß zeigte der Admira-Keeper leichte Unsicherheiten. Nach einer dringend benötigten Trinkpause verzückten Schaub (35.) und Marcel Sabitzer das schwitzende Publikum mit einem schönen Dopelpass, ersterer verzog aber knapp an der rechten langen Ecke vorbei.
Es brauchte einen kapitalen Fehler von Innenverteidiger Harald Pichler, um der Admira in der 36. Minute die Chance zur Führung zu eröffnen. Einen hohen Ball in den Rapid-Strafraum köpfelte Pichler per Kopf direkt zum Franzosen Wilfried Domoraud. Der offensive Mittelfeldspieler zog aus zehn Metern Entfernung und halblinker Position mit Links ab, Christopher Trimmel lenkte den scharfen Schuss noch leicht ab und der Ball landete exakt im rechten Kreuzeck. Torhüter Jan Novota hatte keine Chance, die Admira bejubelte das 1:0.
Für Domoraud war es der erste Bundesliga-Treffer - und gleich einer der Marke Tor des Monats. Maximilian Sax (42.) kam dann dem 2:0 sehr nahe, nachdem er den zu früh rutschenden Pichler mit einem Haken spielerisch leicht hatte aussteigen lassen. Der Abschluss fiel jedoch zu leicht aus, Novota lenkte den Ball ins Tor-Out. Während Lederer mit seiner Elf zufrieden sein durfte, hatte Barisic den Rapidlern zur Pause sicher einige deutliche Worte zu sagen. Vor allem die grün-weiße Abwehr-Viererkette hatte sich zu fehlerhaft präsentiert.
Auch Passgenauigkeit und Aggressivität ließen bei den Gästen bis dahin zu wünschen übrig. Die Admira trat kompakt und spritzig auf, was sich auch nach dem Seitenwechsel nicht änderte. Die erste Chance hatte dennoch wieder Rapid: Schaub (49.) prüfte Leitner mit einem Kopfball nach Flanke von Thomas Schrammel. Als der diesmal unauffällige Thanos Petsos (55.) einen Freistoß in die Wolken jagte, waren Zweifel an einem Punktgewinn für Rapid bereits angebracht. Viel zu selten brachten die Hütteldorfer Admiras Defensive in Bedrängnis.
Auch Steffen Hofmann, der im Wiener Derby wegen eines Hexenschusses ausgefallen war, konnte dem Spiel in keiner Phase seinen Stempel aufdrücken - nach 63 Minuten nahm ihn Barisic aus dem Spiel. Wenige Augenblicke davor hatte Sax nach schöner Vorarbeit von Thorsten Schick eine Riesenchance auf die Vorentscheidung vergeben. Obwohl Rapid wesentlich öfter am Ball war, lag der Ausgleich nicht gerade in der Luft. Im Gegenteil: Rene Schicker (68.) hätte das zweite Admira-Tor machen müssen.
Einmal mehr war Pichlers Zweikampfverhalten ungenügend gewesen. Schicker schüttelte den indisponierten Rapid-Verteidiger am Sechzehner mühelos ab, schob den Ball dann aber unbedrängt an der linken Stange vorbei. Auch in den letzten 20 Minuten hatte Rapid zwar optische Vorteile und war den Gästen das Bemühen keinesfalls abzusprechen. Zusammenhängende Offensivaktionen, die auch zu konkreten Möglichkeiten führten, blieben jedoch Mangelware.
Immer wieder lief Burgstaller ins Abseits. Ein schön angetragener Weitschuss von Petsos (86.) knapp über das Tor zählte noch zu den besten Ausgleichschancen. Die Rapid-Viertelstunde brachte die Admira nicht zum Zittern. Vielmehr blieb es Schicker (92.) vorbehalten, mit dem 2:0 aus kurzer Distanz per Kopf für den Schlusspunkt zu sorgen. Die perfekte Flanke dazu war von Domoraud gekommen. Mit dem Heimerfolg beendeten die Niederösterreicher auch eine Negativserie von zuletzt sechs sieglosen Spielen gegen Rapid.

A day out in London of a Saturday morning requires planning. Jools arranged for shopping to be dropped on Thursday afternoon, meaning we did not have to go on Saturday morning.
Then setting alarms so that we got to Priory station at half seven ready for the quarter to eight train.
Jools went to get tickets, and I went to the corner greasy spoon to get sausage and bacon sticks and brews. So that when the train rolled at twenty to, we climbed on board, sitting at a table and starting on our breakfast.
Leaving at that time meant it was already light, so we could see the countryside rolling by until we got to Ashford, then flash by once we got on the high speed line, zooming up to Ebbsfleet and then under the Thames into Essex and on to Stratford.
We got out at Stratford, caught the DLR to the regional station, then changing DLR lines for the trains heading for Lewisham.
At Pudding Mill Lane, where we used to watch steam tours on the Great Eastern Main Line, a new station has been built to allow for the entrances to the Elizabeth Line tunnels, and next door is the Abba theatre.
We have been talking about going, so Jools checks prices for the show, and amazed that some are nearly £200! Prices next June are £99, but still for seeing a video recreation rather than the band themselves.
The train rattled on, turning south where the old Bryant and May match factory used to be. The building is still there but seems to be business units or flats now.
Passing the old factory used to be the cue for my Granddad to get us standing up and gathering our coats and bags as we were five minutes from Liverpool Street.
Instead, we took the line south through Bow and towards the crystal towers of Docklands and Canary and other Wharves.
I texted Graham to say we were on our way, and he replied to say he was 5 minutes from Canary Wharf. I said we would be there in a few minutes, maybe we would meet there?
Through Poplar and into the 21st century hellscape that is Docklands, we get off on platform 1, and our next train is waiting on platform 2. Jools walks over, I lag behind, scouring the platform for Graham.
Then as I reach the doors, and the electronic bleeps announcing departure, Graham reaches us and comes on board.
Doors close and the train departs, taking tight turns around the skyscrapers before heading to the river, and after Mudschute, dives under the river for Greenwich.
We get off at Cutty Sark, so named after a tea clipper, and find the way out signed to a flight of 125 steps to street level.
I sigh and follow Jools and Graham up, regretting my life choices.
But I made it to the top, and a short walk we called in at a coffee shop for a refill and wait for the Cutty Sark itself to open.
Although the story of the Cutty Sark and the other tea clippers is very interesting, I wanted to come for purely photographic reasons, to snap the prow and the glazed roof that protects the old dry dock.
We pay to go on, and enter the ship, going up two flights of steps onto the deck, where the masts and rigging tower high above. Remember, sailors used to have to climb up these and gather in sails, and all weathers and on all seas, no matter their state.
Hardy buggers.
Cabins were small and on deck, as all space down below was for cases of tea only, to keep them dry and in perfect condition.
Then down through the visitor centre to the bottom of the dry dock, and the copper bottom of the ship, suspended so that shots looking along and up the prow could be taken.
Which I took plenty of.
Above the roofs of the shops and pubs,the tower of the parish church, St Alphage, Greenwich, which is an usual dedication, but turns out this was the site where the titular Saint was martyred in the 11th century.
Graham had never found it open, but I had checked online and it was due to open at eleven, ten minutes ago. So we walked towards the church, dodging through the traffic and arrived at the church gate.
The south doors were closed, as were the north, so I began to doubt myself. But a nearby sight indicated that the main entrance was on the south side, so we went back round.
And one of the doors was indeed ajar.
Bingo.
Bango.
Bongo.
We climbed the steps and went in, and were met my quiet the most friendly and informative volunteer I think I have ever met.
Interesting details were pointed out, and those hidden were shown, including the location of the font where King Henry XIII was christened, and the last surviving part of the second church's wall.
The church, which is after Hawksmoor, is a delight, though gutted during the blitz, so most glass is now lost, though the Victorian is of good quality.
We were here for the Mars display in the Painted Hall at the Greenwich Naval College.
We have been here before, but some 15 years back at least, so a return was overdue, though the sumptuous painting would be partly hidden by the 7m model of the planet Mars.
We have seen the artist's Moon work at the Maritime Museum nearby, but also in Denver back in 2017. But seemed to have missed his "Earth", I'm sure it'll come round again.
We walked through the college grounds, into the painted hall, exchanged vouchers for tickets and climbed the two sets of stairs into the hall itself.
The view opened out, and the first impression was amazing, Mars at the far end, suspended and slowly turning, with the painted hall as a background. And a helmeted Mar looking down at the planet named after him, a great juxtaposition.
We took and hour to take it all in, then talked about going to the Chapel, which we were not sure was open.
At the base of the stairs, we found the entrance to a passageway, with sign pointing to the Chapel, could this lead all the way under the formal gardens?
Yes. Yes it could. And did.
Up spiral staircases to the lobby, then up a formal stairway flanked by statues of Faith, Hope, Charity and Meekness, into the church, a delight, without much in the way of painting to match the hall opposite, but stunning all the same, and few folks had made it over, so we soaked up the building and details, and fittings.
Time was getting on, and thoughts turned to food. So, we left and headed out to the narrow path beside the river, where high tide meant water was lapping at our feet, but we powered back towards the High Road, and the cluster of pubs and other eateries.
Beside the Cutty Sark was the Gipsy Moth pub, but that was full, so we walked on and found a table beside the fire in the Spanish Galleon, a Shepherd Neame's pub, but they had tables and a great looking menu.
We got pints of Whitstable Bay, and ordered burgers each, all in a great end to the trip where we did all we set out to do, and now rounded it off with a pub lunch.
We ate the burgers with pints of Bishop's Finger, now a timid 5.2% rather than the 7% in days of yore, but still full of flavour.
Time to go home. Back to Cutty Sark DLR station, down in the lift this time, and straight on a train heading north. Change at Canary Wharf, where our train to Stratford was also waiting.
We said goodbye to Graham, hopped on, and the doors closed, so we moved off north.
Back at Stratford, down the steps to the concourse, and straight onto a train going to the International Station, we got on, and so were on the platforms for Kent a full ten minutes before the train was due.
When it came, there were a few seats, so I got to sit and rest by back after the 11,000 steps done, so while darkness fell outside, I kept up to date with the football, Norwich 2-2 with Luton at half time, but scoring twice in the second half to win 4-2, and make it 12 goals scored in three games over seven days.
By the time final whistle went, we were back home, and supping fresh brews as we rested, taking our shoes off.
A brilliant day out.
The West Ham fans we had seen on the DLR were going to their home game against Arsenal, which was on TV at half five. Not the game they were hoping for, as Arsenal were 5-2 by halftime, though no more goals scored in the second half, but worthy of that first half to have watched.

St Alfege Church is an Anglican church in the centre of Greenwich, part of the Royal Borough of Greenwich in London. It is of medieval origin and was rebuilt in 1712–1714 to the designs of Nicholas Hawksmoor.
The church is dedicated to Alfege (also spelt "Alphege"), Archbishop of Canterbury, and reputedly marks the place where he was martyred on 19 April 1012, having been taken prisoner during the sack of Canterbury by Danish raiders the previous year. The Danes took him to their camp at Greenwich and killed him when the large ransom they demanded was not forthcoming.[1]
The church was rebuilt in around 1290, and Henry VIII was baptized there in 1491.
The patronage of the church was given to the abbey at Ghent during the 13th century. Following the suppression of alien priories under Henry V, it was granted to the priory at Sheen with which it remained until transferred to the Crown by exchange under Henry VIII in 1530.[1]
During a storm in 1710 the medieval church collapsed, its foundations having been weakened by burials both inside and outside.
Following the collapse of the medieval church, the present building was constructed, funded by a grant from the Commission for Building Fifty New Churches, to the designs of Nicholas Hawksmoor, one of the commission's two surveyors. The first church to be built by the commissioners, it was begun in 1712 and basic construction was completed in 1714;[2] it was not, however, consecrated until 1718.[3] The church was built by Edward Strong the Younger a friend of Christopher Wren the Younger.
The church is rectangular in plan with a flat ceiling and a small apse serving as a chancel. The east front, towards the street, has a portico in the Tuscan order, with a central arch cutting through the entablature and pediment—a motif used in Wren's "Great Model" for St Paul's Cathedral.[3] A giant order of pilasters runs around the rest of the church, a feature Kerry Downes suggests may have been added by Thomas Archer, who, according to the minutes of the commission, "improved" Hawksmoor's plans.[2] On the north and south sides of the churchwide projecting vestibules rise to the full height of the building, with steps leading up to the doors.[3]
Hawksmoor planned a west tower, in the position of the existing one, which had survived the collapse. However the commission was reluctant to fund it, and the medieval tower was retained. In 1730 John James refaced it, and added a spire. Hawksmoor's design, published in an engraving in 1714, had an octagonal lantern at the top, a motif he was later to use at St George in the East.
The crypt served as an air-raid shelter during World War II. During the Blitz on 19 March 1941, incendiary bombs landed on the roof causing it to collapse, burning into the nave. The walls and the tower remained standing but much of the interior was gutted. The church was restored by Sir Albert Richardson in 1953. As part of the post-war restorations, stencils of Mary the Mother of Jesus and St John the Evangelist were installed either side of the Cross (forming a traditional rood) in the side chapel of St Alfege with St Peter by the tempera artist Augustus Lunn.
The present organ was installed in 2001, having been relocated from the Lower Chapel at Eton College, with some minor changes.[6] It is an 1891 Lewis & Co instrument, with modifications in 1927 by A. Hunter & Son and 1970 by Harrison & Harrison.[7]
Additionally, there is a small, six-stop moveable organ located in the north aisle, by W & A Boggis of Diss from c 1960, with a later restoration by Mander Organs.
he previous organ had a long history. It dated from the 16th century (when St Alfege was recorded as having a pair of organs). The National Pipe Organ Register does not record its present whereabouts. However, a three manual drawstop console is on display at the West End of the South aisle. This may incorporate keys from the time of the composer Thomas Tallis,[9] who was buried in the chancel of the medieval church in the 16th century. The organ was restored in 1706 by Thomas Swarbrick, with further restorations and modifications by Dallam (1765), George England (1770) and J. W. Walker & Sons Ltd (1840, 1853 and 1863).[9][10] It was further restored and rebuilt in 1875 by Joseph Robson and Benjamin Flight,[11] modified by Lewis & Co in 1910[12] and rebuilt by R. Spurden Rutt & Co in 1934. By this point it had grown to 47 stops.[13] It survived the bomb damage of 1941 and was rebuilt, again by R Spurden Rutt, in 1953, with 55 stops.

Positioned above the beach approach at Weybourne Hope and built into the cliff this Shellproof Vickers Machine Gun Emplacement is semi-sunken with added roof camouflage, all openings have been bricked up. There is a west facing Large Embrasure which has a chamfered roof line above, the Embrasure opening would have been reduced in size with added Sandbags for protection. There is probably steps leading down to a Full Height Entrance, but has been backfilled over the years, and an external Blast Wall gives protection. The rear of the Gun Emplacement as been exposed by coastal erosion, and it's probably just a matter of time before she topples over the cliff !
The Vickers Machine Gun Emplacement is constructed with brick-built shuttering and poured concrete, and is built to a Shellproof specification with 51in walls, it's a rectangular square plan of approximately 14ft x 14ft with chamfered corners on the front face and roof line. There is a forward facing Large Stepped Embrasure to house a single Machine Gun, the Entrance is to the left of the Embrasure within the line of fire, this is protected by a large and thick Blast Wall. Inside the Gun Emplacement behind the Large Embrasure is a Large Concrete Table which was used to mount the Vickers Machine Gun on its Tripod. There is also up to three Embrasures/Loopholes for either Rifle or Bren Light Machine Gun use. In the rear wall is an Air Vent. Normally positioned in pairs as a 'Two Gun Section' and often on steep forward facing slopes, usually semi-sunken with Earthen Camouflage covering their Position.

These rudimentary field defences were constructed to oppose a British approach to Stanley from the west. They are very exposed and have no protection from fire, but their position low against the earth banks would have help hide their whereabouts until the last moment.

Located in the middle of the western wine district, is Hollabrunn the transportation hub and capital of this region. The city's importance lies in its administration function and in its position as school location. The main community of Hollabrunn is divided into 22 cadastral municipalities. Hollabrunn is twinned with the cities of Jinhua in China, Kyjov in the Czech Republic and Holič in Slovakia.
The settlement of the Hollabrunner area dates back to the early Neolithic period, in the locality itself have been found traces of a linear ceramic settlement (Linear band Pottery culture). A double grave with rich offerings in Hollabrunner reed "In lower Satzen" could be associated with the Bronze Age. At the mill "Old Hofmühle" in Hollabrunn settlement remains of the Hallstatt period have been located.
Hollabrunn probably originated from a double settlement founded by the Bavarian Counts of Cham-Vohburg in North-South location in the 11th century with separate truce. The first documentary mention of the evolving street village on the old trade route Znojmo-Vienna took place in 1135 under the designation "Holerbrunnen (elderberry well)". From the second half of the 13th century, the respective write variant of the name Hollabrunn in the historical sources also is complemented by "superior", "maior" or "upper". Since 1927, the city on the basis of a decision of the Lower Austrian Landtag (Diet) is named Hollabrunn.
1908 Hollabrunn was elevated to the status of town, its tradition as a market goes back to the 14th century, in a document from 1377 Hollabrunn is first described as a market. Towards the end of the 14th century Hollabrunn still belonged to the domain of the Lords of Sun Mountain (Sonnberg), from about 1394/1400 to that of the lords of Maissau. In the following period the ownership changed frequently, in 1606, finally, Hollabrunn became a separate dominion, fell in 1662 into the possession of the Dietrichstein and was acquired in 1864 together with the market Hollabrunn by Erwin count of Schönborn-Buchheim.
The economic development of Hollabrunn is to be seen in direct connection with its traffic-convenient location along the trade route between Vienna and Moravia. Since the 14th century, in Hollabrunn is regularly held market, fairs, horse, wood, grain and livestock markets established in the course of time. During the last decades, Hollabrunn positioned itself as regionally important trade fair location.
Viniculture and wine trade until the 19th century formed the main industry of Hollabrunner population. East and west of the town extended an extensive wine region, three cellar lanes emerged. Opposite the wine industry, the agriculture, especially the cultivation of cereals and sugar beet, in the 19th century was formative for Hollabrunn, but lost massively during the 20th century in importance. Although currently essential parts of the Hollabrunner municipality are utilized agriculturally and forestally, is the management, however, for the main carried out from the neighboring communities.
The religious life of Hollabrunn in the course of centuries was also determined by the Protestantism and the large Jewish community. End of the 16th century, most of the population of Hollabrunn had already turned to the Protestant doctrine. The attempt of a recatholicization by the Bishop of Vienna, Melchior Khlesl, failed yet in 1605, but was operated successfully after 1655 by Pastor John Reisch, with the support of Capuchins, who had been resident in the locality since 1665. The Jewish cemetery on the outskirts of Hollabrunn is reminiscent of the Jewish tradition of the lieu. Since the 17th century, Jews lived in Hollabrunn, 1901, constituted the Jewish Community Hollabrunn and existed until the year 1938.
In Town Museum "Old Hofmühle" in Hollabrunn in a permanent exhibition colonization and cultural emerging of the district Hollabrunn are documented. Next to the museum building, a mansion from the 16th century, are among the city's attractions in particular the parish church of St. Ulrich, the former Capuchin monastery, the building of the former Archbishop's Seminary and the Art Nouveau houses along the in the 90's remodeled main square.

This rudimentary defensive position may have served as the command bunker for a battery of anti-aircraft guns in this location. It it sited near the highest point, in close proximity to one of the Rh-202 guns still in situ (presumed to be close to the original position) and would have been large enough for the compliment of command and signals staff required. It is larger than the standard single or two-man positions found elsewhere.
