Derelict building in Pont Llogel Powys Mid Wales i think this may be an old chapel.
It is a shame to see this building going to waste.
The view from the stage of the historic Saenger Theater, in downtown Pine Bluff, Arkansas. The theater was built in 1924, and was called the "Showplace of the South." It was probably one of the finest and most elaborate theaters in Arkansas. The interior was built with an "Egyptian Temple" theme, and featured marble floors, massive chandeliers, gold leaf, and intricately detailed architectural motifs. While the massive chandeliers and the organ are gone, you can still see signs of the building's distinctive architecture and beauty.
Will Rogers, John Philip Sousa, and the Zigfried Follies all performed on this stage. Harry Houdini made a horse disappear from the stage (allegedly using a trap door). In the 1950s, the building was converted into a movie theater. And in order to "modernize" the building for the Atomic Age, pink linoleum tiles were placed over the Italian marble in the lobby. The massive golden chandeliers and the pipe organ (which was the largest in the state when it was installed) were removed. The finely detailed Egyptian themed details were painted over and obscured, and the theater box seats were removed to make way for an ungainly looking air conditioning unit.
The Saenger Theater closed in 1975 when new movie theaters and shopping malls began to open up in the suburbs. The building sat empty and disused until the 1990s, when it became the home for the Pine Bluff Film Festival. But when the festival ended, the building would sit, seemingly abandoned. Holes in the roof led to major water damage, with chunks of the plaster on the wall collapsing onto the balcony. The old orchestra pit and basement were filled with several feet of murky water. Vandals made their way into the building, ripping out and stealing metal and wiring. The city of Pine Bluff became owners of the property, but the old theater wasn't a priority. Enough basic maintenance was done on the building to ensure it stayed standing, but its future was in doubt.
Until last year, when the city decided to restore the theater. Recently, a 3D digital scan of the building was made, which will help guide architects on the process of restoring and renovating the historic theater. It's rare to see abandoned buildings in this part of the state be preserved. So it's absolutely thrilling that the Saenger may not only be saved, but to be restored to its former glory. It would be a jewel, something that the entire state could be proud of. And the money is there to save it. If Arkansas can spend a billion dollars on a prison, then it can find the money to preserve the Saenger. I can't wait to visit the Saenger is a few years and walk through here again when it is returned as it's rightful status as the "Showplace of the South."
So when I was about 15 I had a cousin who had veiny hands and I mentioned it to her and consequently offended her. Oh dear Karma, now guess who has them? Also, a little moisturizer wouldn't hurt.
Another goal for the year is to tighten our budget a little, we have too many little leaks.

Fuck my life, can't say that girl
Don't tell me you can save that shit
All she want is payback for the way I always play that shit
You ain't getting nothing, now I'm saying
Don't tell me you is
Nothin' like them other motherfuckers
These vertical poles mark the safe route across the tidal sands and mud of the Pilgrims Way, the ancient crossing way from the English mainland to the Holy Island of Lindisfarne on the Northumbrian coast of North East England. Should you get caught out by the rising tide then the construction in the foreground is the emergency refuge where you can wait until the tides recede again.

A couple of days ago I noticed this wasp all trussed up in a spider's web. The wasp was struggling trying to get away. It had managed to free its antennae and part of its abdomen. It was wriggling quite a bit but there was no sign of the spider. I left it to escape fully expecting it to do so. The following day I went to see the web expecting it to have been repaired but no. The wasp was dead and just about in the same amount of webbing as previously. Again there was no sign of the spider. The same was true today so I'm thinking that maybe in wrapping the wasp the spider got stung possibly after biting the wasp. So in the end neither were winners!
The bubble is saved from the slaughter. Took me quite a while to get the bubble to land perfectly on the pin head but got there in the end.
