Into Sandwich before then for a wander and drop off the orchid picture for framing.
Its been a while since we were in the town, and lots to see and snap.
A good two hours spent wandering around, randomly snapping.
-------------------------------------------
Sandwich is a historic town and civil parish in the Dover District of Kent, south-east England. It lies on the River Stour and has a population of 4,985.[1] Sandwich was one of the Cinque Ports and still has many original medieval buildings, including several listed public houses and gates in the old town walls, churches, almshouses and the White Mill. While once a major port, it is now two miles from the sea due to the disappearance of the Wantsum Channel. Its historic centre has been preserved.[2] Sandwich Bay is home to nature reserves and two world-class golf courses, Royal St George's and Prince's. The town is also home to many educational and cultural events. Sandwich also gave its name to the food by way of John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich, and the word sandwich is now found in several languages.
Before Sandwich became a Cinque Port, the ancient Saxon town of Stonar on the bank of the Wantsum estuary, but on the opposite side of the mouth of the River Stour, was already well established. It remained a place of considerable importance but it disappeared almost without trace in the 14th century. The ruins of the major Roman fort of Richborough are close by. It was the landing place of the Roman invasion of Britain in AD 43.[4] In 2008, an archaeological dig proved that this was a defensive site of a Roman beachhead, protecting 700 metres of coast.[5]
In 1028 King Canute (c. 995–1035) granted a charter to the monks of Christ Church, Canterbury, to operate a ferry across the river and collect tolls. In 1192, returning from the Third Crusade, Richard the Lionheart was jailed by the Holy Roman Emperor Henry VI. Henry released Richard in February 1194. On 13 March 1194, Richard landed at the port of Sandwich and came back to England.[6] On 21 May 1216, Prince Louis of France landed at Sandwich in support of the First Barons' War against King John.[7][failed verification] The Battle of Sandwich occurred just off the coast in 1217.
The Port of Sandwich is no stranger to odd events in English history. It was here that the first captive elephant was landed in England by the emperor Claudius.[8] Later another elephant was landed here, in 1255. The prize beast arrived at Sandwich quayside, delivered as a gift to the English monarch Henry III from the French king, and was then taken on foot to the king's menagerie in the Tower of London. The journey through Kent is reported to have proceeded without incident, except when a bull in a field by the roadside took umbrage at the great beast passing and attacked it. In one move, the animal was thrown by the elephant and killed outright.
The Guildhall, in the town square, was built in 1579. Work in 1812 encased the building in yellow brick, this was removed 100 years later in 1912, when the south-west wing was also added. Further alterations were undertaken later in the 20th century. It contains antique panelling and paintings, particularly within the council chamber. It is a Grade II* listed building.[33] It includes a stained glass window in the courtroom, showing Queen Elizabeth I arriving at Sandown Gate in 1573, which was added in 1906.[34] The courtroom is still used regularly for civic functions, such as 'Mayor-making', and available to hire as a wedding venue.[35][36]
The Admiral Owen is a pub in a two-storey, 15th century timber-framed building. It was refronted in the 18th century, but this work preserved the overhang of its first floor on a Bressummer and massive corner post with three brackets.[37] The nearby Crispin Inn was originally called the Crispin and Crispianus. It has similar timber framing and was built in the 16th century.[38] Across the road on the quay is the Bell Hotel, which underwent major rebuilding in the 18th and 19th centuries. There has been a Bell Inn on the quay since the 14th century.[39]
The three pubs cluster around The Barbican which was built in the late 14th century. It consists of 2 round towers, with chequered work of stone and flints. A narrow road passes between the towers with a semi-circular timber barrel roof over it. A small 2-storeyed 20th-century house built on to north side of the north west tower was occupied by the toll collector for the bridge.[40] The Sandwich Toll Bridge was built in 1773 of Portland stone with a Dutch type timber raised platform which was replaced in 1892 with an iron swing bridge.

Maker: André Adolphe Eugène Disderi (1819-1889)
Born: France
Active: France
Medium: albumen print
Size: 8 5/8 in × 11 in
Location: France
Object No. 2021.113e
Shelf: C-62
Publication: Mr. Disderi, Windsor Castle, Twenty-nine Photographic Views of the interior of WindsorCastle, Photographed by the Gracious Permission of Her Majesty The Queen, London, 1867
Other Collections: The Getty
Provenance:
Notes: Interior view of a room that displays a bust of Admiral Nelson by Francis Legatt Chantrey, flanked by a canon on each side. Almost exactly above the bust is a large chandelier. Other statues and weapons can be seen around the room.
André-Adolphe-Eugène Disdéri (1819 - 1889) a self-taught daguerreotypist, researched and improved upon the existing collodion-on-glass negative process, which he outlined in his first publication, Manuel Opératoire de Photographie sur Collodion Instantané, 1853. That same year, he returned to Paris and opened the largest studio in Paris, which spread across two floors. It was there that he introduced his carte-de-visite portraits which were a great financial success. For the 1855 Paris Exposition Universelle, he formed the Société du Palais de l'Industrie and obtained the rights to photograph all the products and works of art exhibited at the Exposition. Eder writes "Disdéri was considered the outstanding portrait photographer of his time in Paris. Napoleon III appointed him court photographer. In 1861, he instructed French officers in photography under orders from the minister of war. Disdéri's popularity is best shown by the fact that his character was introduced in 1861 as a star attraction on the stage of a small vaudeville theater in Paris by a realistic representation featuring his bald head and tremendous beard."

Dewey Beach, Delaware, USA
Dewey Beach lies on a small strip of land between the Atlantic Ocean and Rehoboth Bay, is about one mile long and two blocks wide. Despite its small size and low year-round population of about 300, it is not uncommon for 30,000 to descend upon the town during summer weekends. Numerous bars and restaurants line Coastal Highway (Delaware Route 1), the town's main street.
The town of Dewey Beach, Delaware is a frequent summer vacation destination for Washington, D.C., residents (121.78 miles / 2 hrs 46 mins from The White House)
Delaware it the second-smallest state in the United States after Rhode Island.
The town hosts the Dewey Beach Music Conference during the last weekend of September. This event began in 2002 and has been a huge draw for unsigned bands from all over the country.
In 2011, the NRDC Natural Resources Defense Council awarded Dewey Beach with a 5-Star rating in water quality.
It is believed that the name was given to Dewey Beach following the 1898 Battle of Manilla (Spanish–American War) when Admiral George Dewey became a national hero.

Faire sa fête à Macron
Pour que le président ne souffle pas seulement sa première bougie à l'Elysée mais qu'il sente surtout le vent du boulet !
Ça fera un an que Macron a été élu, une année à œuvrer comme un Robin des bois à l'envers : prenant aux pauvres pour donner aux riches.
C'est pour les retraité.e.s la CSG en hausse.
Pour les locataires, les APL en baisse.
Pour les salarié.e.s, moins d'indemnités aux prud'hommes.
Pour les contrats aidés, retour à la case chômage.
Pour les EHPAD, « la France n'a pas les moyens budgétaires », selon la ministre de la santé.
Mais pour les actionnaires, là, les « moyens », le gouvernement les a trouvés, et en milliards : suppression de l'impôt sur la fortune, extension du CICE, etc.
Pour la répression aussi : équipements militaires pour l'évacuation de NDDL, policiers dans les universités et harcèlement de la jeunesse dans les quartiers populaires...
Partout ça résiste : les cheminots évidemment, les facs également, Air France, les hôpitaux, les EHPAD, les éboueuses, les caissiers, les électriciennes, les femmes, les racisés, les chômeuses... Si ces ruisseaux de colère convergeaient, quel fleuve puissant ne formeraient-ils pas !
« Il y a autre chose aussi, moins visible, plus souterrain, mais plus massif, plus explosif : un vaste désir d'autre chose. »
Quoi ? On ne sait pas, ou pas encore. Mais autre chose que cet économisme étroit, cette bureaucratie qui contrôle, qui « manage », qui évalue sans relâche, qui maltraite. Et qui ne connait rien d'autre que ses ratios. On a envie de respirer !
Et qu'en ce printemps, rassemblé.e.s, on sente notre force bourgeonnante !
