Flat stones projecting from Incan terraces in Peru were my first encounter with these simplest of stiles. I love them and I love the way that human ingenuity came to the same notion in the wonderful parallel evolution of ideas.
This stuff bothers some people. They can't see how the limits of physics and the properties of materials constrain outcomes. In their minds we need fanciful migrations, divine direction or visiting aliens to carry ideas which logically evolve with no influence beyond the human mind and Nature's laws.
Applying reductio ad absurdum logic, ask what would have happened if the builders of ziggurats, Egyptian, Mesoamerican or Nubian pyramids, even the Borobudur of Central Java began adding stones to a structure that pointed downwards. Doesn't work; not even for the most artistic mind. Quite logically, all around the place, if you pile stuff up and you don't want it to fall down, the pointy bit is at the top.
If there is a need, an available material and a mind to put those things together this is what you get: stile style. Not only that, it works better than imported notions. Today I took a wander over to the dilapidated bird hide on Loch Gretchen. This entailed negotiating a vertical ladder up one side of the sheep dyke, rotating 180⁰ on a tiny wooden platform then descending another vertical ladder on the other side. It was terrifying! A few stones like this, old school, and there's none of that perilous centre of gravity hanging out in space business. Here you ascend, straddle, then descend without risk. That's style!

I decided to remake my Flying Scotsman model into a style more like my model of Gordon from Thomas and Friends, as they are brothers in-universe. I took Gordon and redid the boiler to use SNOT-work and revised the tender to look more like the one usually used by the engine. (although I must admit, the tender is not a perfect copy of the real world design) A lot of rework was needed, as some parts were difficult to find or not existent in dark green, although it helped that I have quite a stockpile of this color on hand, and an older Flying Scotsman model I disassembled to reuse it's pieces.
...and yes, I know the very front portion of the frame (the part over the guiding wheels) is too long. There isn't really much I could do about it, as I did try to modify it, but it threw all the other proportions off, so I changed it back.
When I found this Julita dress in Joy, I immediately adored its 50s charm.

Schanigarten
(Wikipedia: Schanigarten is the Austro-Bavarian term for tables and chairs set up on the sidewalk in front of eating and drinking places. Unlike normal beer gardens (Gastgärten), the customers actually sit on public property. Originally, Schanigärten (pl.) referred only to Viennese coffee houses, but now the expression is used in other parts of Austria and for other types of establishments like restaurants and taverns)

The Café Landtmann in Vienna is a typical Viennese coffee house in the Ringstrasse style. It is located in the first District at the University Ring 4, corner Löwelstraße 22, and is known throughout the city.
Location
The cafe is located on the ground floor of the Palais Lieben-Auspitz called Mietwohnhauses (apartment building), in the immediate vicinity of the Burgtheater, the University of Vienna and the party headquarters of the Social Democrats and close to the Vienna City Hall with the City Hall Park, the Federal Chancellery and three ministries. The café is therefore frequented by, among other actors, politicians, civil servants and journalists and is the venue for press conferences.
History
The coffee was on 1 October 1873 of the Cafétier (café owner) Landtmann as "Vienna 's most elegant and largest café-localities" in a prominent, 1872 built corner house at the at the time also new Franzensring (so to 1919 the address of this part of Vienna's Ringstrasse) opened. The ring road was indeed opened by emperor Franz Joseph I in 1865, but still long not completed in the area of the coffee house: The city hall was under construction since 1872, but was only opened in 1883. The university main building was built 1877-1884, the Burgtheater from 1874 to 1888. The coffee was thus in his early years surrounded mainly by large construction sites.
1881 sold Landtmann his coffeehouse to the brothers Wilhelm and Rudolf Kerrl who continued it under the name Landtmann and extended it in the direction of Oppolzergasse. Rudolf soon retired from active business life, Wilhelm Kerrl led on the café alone until 1916 and then sold it, worn down by the economy of scarcity of the First World War, to Karl Anton Kraus, previously a butcher and innkeeper. He led the coffee for only five years, because in 1921 it was operated by a Hokare Ges.mbH (unlimited company) (the name stands for hotel, coffee and restoration companies). This company had to be liquidated 1925/1926.
The Café Landtmann was now bought in the fall of 1926 by Mr. and Mrs. Conrad and Angela Zauner. The new owners had it in 1929 after a design by Ernst Meller, experienced in the establishment of coffee houses, fully restored: with the preserved to this day interior which is under preservation order. Particularly striking are four wooden pillars at the entrance, which were created by Hans Scheibner and their decoration representing premiere scenes of the Burgtheater. With this elaborate interior design Landtmann consolidated its position as the most elegant café in town. In 1949, Konrad Zauner's son Erwin took the management of the café and led it on with great success.
In 1974 the company received the National Award and since then it is allowed to use the Federal coat of arms in commercial transactions. In 1976, the present owner family took the local and renovated it in 1980 again.
In the café was Robert Böck, on duty only called Mr. Robert, working for 28 years, many years as head waiter in a tuxedo, and he knew all the important guests personally. On his last working day, on 23 December 2003, many celebrities came to his departure from the cafe. Mayor Michael Häupl served Mr. Robert, who had so often served him a "little brown". To this end, he handed him the "Golden Rathausmann" "for the most famous, most discreet and most accommodating waiter of Vienna".

Details
Small stage
In the basement below the coffee was after Czeike already 1936-1938 the Cabaret 'Merry Landtmann" for the dancer Cilli Wang set up by her husband. 1953 in the basement the small stage "The Tribune" was established (since 2002: "The new stand", directed by Karl Heinz Wukow). It is one of the numerous small Viennese theaters that operate with modest public support and which offer authors, actors and directors fields of application.
Winter Garden
2007 was built a conservatory on the facade towards the castle theater, designed by Manfred Wehdorn by 1.5 million euros (Bernd Querfeld). With 87 square meters and 29 tables, the conservatory is almost as spacious as the great hall of the café; thus the capacity of the premises has been extended by a quarter.
Landtmann's Bel-Etage
2012 were opened above the café three function rooms, which are referred to as "Landtmann's Bel-Etage". One of the rooms is named after Berta Zuckerkandl, which in the house (entrance Oppolzergasse 6) from 1917 to 1938 run her famous salon, meeting place of artists, scientists and politicians.
Price of water
2013 got the coffee into media because guests who instead of ordering other beverages only want drink tap water this service no longer receive free. The scheme has been criticized partly violently. The glass of water for ordered coffee, as it corresponds to the Viennese coffee house tradition, still is served free.
Miscellaneous
In the Café Landtmann are according to indications of the owner family on average held 2.8 press conferences per day.
Since 2003, the café is every summer venue of the coffee house theater ink & coffee.
In March 2009, was opened in Tokyo in the central district of Minato-ku, in fact, in the district Kitaaoyama in the Aoyama Street, a "Café Landtmann" called local opened.
Guests
The coffee house was according to Czeike visited, among others, by the artists Attila Hörbiger, Paul Hörbiger, Oskar Kokoschka, Hans Moser, Max Reinhardt, Oskar Werner and Paula Wessely. Among the politicians he names Julius German, Robert Dannenberg and Karl Seitz, who were part of the "Red Vienna", and in the postwar period the then very popular Chancellor Julius Raab. Gustav Mahler was encountering here with Karl Goldmark, Gary Cooper and Marlene Dietrich were among the "by-trotting" guests, the authors Jura Soyfer, Felix Salten, Thomas Mann and John Boynton Priestley also frequented the Landtmann. The owners themselves mention over and above Peter Altenberg, Sigmund Freud, Emmerich Kálmán, Curd Jürgens, Otto Preminger and Romy Schneider as regulars.

totally modern like a subway carriage.
heard it's the first thing then new French operators of the tram system have introduced.
i hope they are not completely phasing out the old trams, perhaps just adding aircon to them (please, that's all they need).

It was tipping it down with rain while I took these photos, which actually ended up being a lot of fun. I enjoyed playing around with the shutter speed to catch me leaping around like a lunatic.

I decided to take my tribally patterned dress on its first proper outing. I bought it from eBay a few weeks ago but had a mini crisis of confidence where I convinced myself it was too clingy, and it's been sitting dormant on my desk at work ever since. I wore it with my burgundy cardigan from Primark, a vintage black belt, a trilby purchased from a friend when she was having a turf-out and of course my brand new Zatchels satchel, which went on it's first trip today.
