Pour réaliser ce gel hydratant pour le matin, il vous faudra
- une coupelle, un petit fouet, une petite spatule pour le matériel.
- du gel d'aloé vera bio ...
- de l'extrait concentré de Sang de Dragon, de l'extrait d'Orchidée royale BIO ou un actif bio remodelant et du melano régul pour les actifs "peau mature" ... on peux choisir d'autres actifs selon son type de peau mais attention jamais plus de trois !!!
- verser le gel d'aloé vera dans la coupelle, 100 gouttes de bio remodelant ou d'extrait d'orchidée, 70 gouttes de mélano régul et 55 gouttes de sang de dragon.
- bien mélanger à l'aide du petit fouet ....puis remettre le gel dans son flacon d'origine à l'aide de la spatule .
conserver au frigo et utiliser le matin pour une peau bien hydratée et reboustée .
L'application du gel d'aloe vera peut entrainer des sensations de "tiraillements" qui s'estompent au bout de quelques minutes. Si vous avez la peau très fine ou fragile, préférez l'utilisation du gel d'aloe vera en tant qu'actif dans des préparations enrichies en huiles végétales.
Et pour ceux qui douteraient qu'on puisse se fournir en sang de dragon voir ici : www.aroma-zone.com/info/fiche-technique/actif-cosmetique-... :-))
J107BRB 1992 Land Rover Defender/M.M.B. (Macclesfield Motor Bodies) ambulance of the British Red Cross Derbyshire Branch. Her crew had come up to Newcastle Upon Tyne to help out with the 2002 Great North Run. Nottingham Registration. Due to the huge demand of medical teams the event runs 2 field hospital, waypoint first aid posts, doctors, Nurses, Physiotherapists, Paramedic, Technicians, voluntry aid society ambulances crews as well as general welfare volunteers. Due to the size the event is a multi county event for the British Red Cross, St John ambulance and a detachment of St Andrews First aid all attending alongside the North East Ambulance Service. Hence why a Derbyshire ambulance and crew were in the North East.

A somewhat blurry shot, but I won't unpack the hiking pack anymore for a while. This is (at this stage) all the stuff that I will be taking on the hike, 17.9kg, which includes 4L of drinking water. Together with the two tarps, which came in really handy because we had rain and the guide book, the pack weighed close to 20kg in the end. I won't take the guide book and only copy some pages that will be useful. The guide book is 290g, the few pages I am taking only about 80g. (see 'edit' below).
Fully packed:

Also, what's not shown here is the camera: I took my trusty Nikon FM3A and the Nikkor 24mm and 50mm Nikkor Series E lens. I carried the camera as shown here: www.flickr.com/photos/30079014@N03/17297309602/in/photost...
All this is for the first leg from Cape Leeuwin to Margaret River, and four days' camping along the track. Then, a food drop at Margaret River for the second leg from Margaret River to Cape Naturaliste (3 1/2 days). Most days were 16-17.5km, with one day about 19km. This was the first time I carried such a heavy pack (added four Mandarins and one Lebanese cucumber after Margaret River which added weight!). I found this hike quite challenging with such a heavy pack which was close to 35% of my body weight on the first day. My daughter carried the tent and her pack ended up close to 40% of her body weight. (We are 'little women' :). Recommendations for loads are less than what we carried but women in some other countries carry heavy sacks of produce to the market every single day which makes me wonder whether we, in the western world, are just getting 'soft'. Anyhow, I managed, just. Towards the end of about 16km, especially after the slog on sand, I just had about enough. :)
several 'Edits' added at the bottom!
Stuff that I left behind after the first four days = deleted
Edit:
I will take the guide book as the maps in the book are much better than the trek maps that come with it. After working out how many copies I was going to print the weight added up again.
When I look at this shot, the first thing I notice is the bar of TOBLERONE! :) I love LINDT Chilli chocolate but find for hiking TOBLERONE is more suitable because it is chunkier and may not break as easily as a flat bar of chocolate. TOBLERONE tastes nice too! :)
THE STUFF for four days (we'll hike for four days, food drop, hike for four days):
On the left is the stuff that goes into the top compartment.
- 2 knee bandages in case my knees get dodgy during the hike, can also be used for snake bites, which hopefully won't happen.
- First Aid kit, which we hopefully won't need.
- hand sanitizer
- Pack cover & shower cap camera cover
- rain jacket
- wallet with cards, no coins
- head torch
- trek notes and SUUNTO compass (not needed).
- note book
In the middle is the stuff that goes into the main compartment
- toilet roll with baby wipes and trowel
- 4 x 500mL water. I made tubular bags so I can put the bottles on top of each other into the pack on either side. Makes packing easier and keeps the balance of the pack better. (did not work as well as I thought it would.
- swimmers, as we may have to wade through water
- lightweight fleecy jacket replaced with warmer jacket.
- vest
- spare pants (left behind to reduce weight
- Goretex rain pants (left behind to reduce weight, would have been too cumbersome to put on)
- one change of socks and undies
- small towel
- stainless steel mug (not needed).
- Pita bread and cheese for four days. Took multigrain breadrolls instead as well as a Lebanese cucumber, i.e. 1/4 bite of it each day.
- instant soup for four days (not needed. Also, would have used too much drinking water).
- TOBLERONE (can't leave home without it) (alas, it had to go as it was too cumbersome to pack. Replaced with four Mint Patties, which were nice and kind of 'refreshing' and the soft mint bit inside is covered with a thin layer of chocolate).
- 120g trail mix for four days (took about 200g of trail mix).
- 150g apricot bites/delight snack. (This was nice!)
- 2 x rice porridge for two (daughter carries the other lot for two) Note: Rice porridge was difficult to cook. The bit over the flame burnt and the rest turned into the kind of slop that you see in POW camp movies. I have been cured of eating rice porridge and shall keep clear of it for at least a while).
- 2 TASTY BITE meals and rice for two people (daughter carries the other lot for two) Worked really well and tasted good, even after four days.
- 400mL fuel bottle (used less than 400mL for four days, approx. 300mL).
- Ultralight bushbox stove www.bushcraft-essentials.com/english/bushbox-ultralight-o... with windshield www.amazon.de/Andoer-Faltbarer-Alu-Windschutz-Windscreen-... and pot scraper. (This little stove worked a treat!)
- gardening gloves (we won't do gardening, of course, but sometimes gardening gloves come in handy when having to clamber up rocks, move pieces of timber, clear the ground for the tent, etc. They weigh only 70g, so will take them along. i found them to be very useful on other treks as well). Managed to clear small branches, etc. without gloves.
- matches, lighter (forgot the lighter. Waterproof matches kept breaking, i.e. a lighter is a good idea).
- 2L OSPREY hydration pack
- gadget bag, containing some gaffa tape, 2 x 3 AAA batteries (decided that things would have to go really really bad and the two head torches would suffice for four days which, of course, they did; small sewing kit, spare laces, AQUAMIRA chlorine tablets, spare head torch, because I have a habit of losing head torches and even the best ones can break down.
- cooking utensils: pot handle, small pot cloth, snuffer to put out flame.
- mess kit, paper towels (no water for washing up), cutlery, and the burner is stored inside the mess bowl.
- thongs to relieve the feet used only once, so decided could to without them).
- small tarp so we won't have to put the packs in the sand or dirt. (Took two small tarps which came in really handy to make entrance mats on either side of the tent, especially when it rained. Also, we could put the packs on the tarps to keep them off the wet sand.
On the right is the stuff that goes into the bottom compartment
- 3/4 length THERM-A-Rest mat with small piece of sheepskin for extra comfort.
- pillow
- Western Mountaineering USA sleeping bag. Cosy! weighs only 500g!
- toiletries
PJ's
- spec case
- KOMPERDELL trekking poles (these are new and have clamps instead of twist locks. The twist locks on my other pair sometimes don't work which is a real nuisance.
In the right hand corner the stuff that goes into the side pockets, minus the scarf. I decided I really don't need a scarf when I have a Santini headband. Saves 25g! :)
- 4 hankies I opted for paper tissues as I often get a really runny nose when hiking. Disadvantage is that the used ones had to be put into a plastic bag and packed for disposal at the end of the hike.
- Santini headband
- cell phone (there is no reception on most parts of the trek. I took it 'just in case'. We had reception for a short distance just after Conto camping ground).
- sun screen
- cotton gloves for sun protection
- lip balm
Edit 1:
Swapped packcover (105g) and tarp (215g) for a 285g poncho tarp. Saves 35g and will be more useful. The disadvantage with pack covers is that the water is running down your back and the pack still gets wet. (Poncho tarp: Will write a 'gear review' when home! Not very useful in high wind conditions.) Glad that I packed the pack cover 'just in case'.
Edit 2:
In the main compartment I packed everything that was in the small stuff sacks into one lightweight compression bag. In the bottom compartment the pillow and the pj's are now also in one compression bag. Makes packing a bit easier. I.e. at this stage it appears to be easier. :)
Edit 3 - gear review after the first four days!:
I got rid of a few items, but then added 4 mandarins and one Lebanese cucumber for lunch, which brought the weight back up again. But: A quarter of Lebanese cucumber with the bread roll and "La vache qui rit" cheese, and a mandarin after dinner was very nice! I also added more trail mix and ate it all every day. :) I took one Lebanese cucumber for the first four days, but it became really slimy after the second day in a plastic bag so threw it away. For the second four days I wrapped it well in brown paper, then in a plastic bag and it kept well and was still crunchy on day 4. The breadrolls: wrapped tightly and with as little air as possible in plastic bags and the roll on day 4 did not taste stale, a bit flatter than a lovely roll fresh from the baker's, but still edible. I suppose after 135km lugging a heavy pack and probably not enough kiloJoules, anything tastes like a feast. Just downed 100g of Toblerone! Feeling a bit sick, but hey! a Toblerone is worth it! :) I seem to have lost 1 1/2kg to 2kg during the hike.
Also, the second tarp was added again. Small tarps are really handy. One of them could have made an emergency roof for cooking in the rain and the other used as an entrance mat to the small 2-person tent, and also for the packs to sit on during the night. It did rain, but not heavily enough and we managed to cook in the drizzle without cover.

As a means to increase access to food, the European Commission Humanitarian Aid department funded a Save The Children project that distributed assorted vegetable seeds including maize, tomato and mustard seeds to families as well as irrigation equipment.
As a result, Eluby’s family started growing crops in their nursery, in a nearby vegetable garden, and in an allocated space at a small scale irrigation scheme that sits adjacent to their home.

Rite Aid #1415 (6,494 square feet)
929 South High Street, Parkway Center, West Chester, PA
I spent the evening at West Chester's Quality Inn & Suites, and right around the corner was a small shopping center housing this small older Rite Aid as an inline tenant. It was the first thing I ended up doing the following morning, and I felt it was a worthwhile visit as Rite Aid was in the midst of changing its' logo company-wide so I wasn't sure if alterations would take place here or not (the answer was no, as the store went out of business just a few months later). I wasn't able to determine when the store opened, but its' aesthetic probably dates back to the late 1980s/early 1990s because its' the same look seen at this Williamsburg store. The salesfloor is laid out horizontally, with the pharmacy in the back right corner, twelve aisles of merchandise, and the checkout area beneath the front windows. A tilted mirror lines the back wall, and the left and right walls feature the colorful stripe patterns, while aisle signage is from the company's 2007 era package. This was a fine way to begin a very productive day!

*HINDMARSH VALLEY SPORTS
The attendance at the Hindmarsh Valley gymkhana on Saturday last was most satisfactory, and a programme of interesting events, including two galloping races, gave the onlookers an attractive afternoon's sport. The proceeds were in aid of the Hindmarsh Valley Memorial Hall fund. [Ref: Victor Harbour Times 20-1-1950]
*FOUNDATION STONE LAID AT HINDMARSH VALLEY
Nearly 50 years ago residents of Hindmarsh Valley decided they would build a hall. In those days the Valley consisted of about 18 families, and the late Mr Harry Battye, a prominent Victor Harbour man, was approached to call a meeting, at which Mr F Taylor presided.
Land was offered for a building site, and Mr Joseph Kenny offered to cart stone to the site free of charge. Functions were held to raise money for the hall, but during the latter part of World War I the functions ceased.
In 1947 it was moved by Messrs A F Parsons and J Pratten that the project be named Hindmarsh Valley Memorial Hall and that efforts be resumed to raise money. At that time nett assets were less than £100, but with the loyal support of residents and hard work by various committees that have functioned, the present credit stands at £3,200.
On the recent holiday Monday (June 16) the foundation stone was laid in the presence of some 230 enthusiastic residents and friends of the district, who were welcomed by the president of the Hindmarsh Valley Progress Association. Mr A D Gray.
Mr Gray said it was a memorable occasion, because past and present residents had worked for this day for many years. He thanked all those who had assisted with donations, cartage of materials, labour and cash donations. He also paid tribute to the members of past committees.
Other speakers were Mr W W Jenkins MP, Member for Stirling, Cr A G Siegert (chairman of Encounter Bay Council), and Cr O B Hutchinson. representative of Hindmarsh Ward.
Mr Gray then introduced Mr W V L Virgin to lay the foundation stone.
Mr Virgin said the district 50 years ago was sparsely populated, and means of travel was by horse and cart, but since then development of the district had vastly improved. He also mentioned the happy functions held in the schoolroom with local talent.
Following the laying of the stone, Mr Gray presented Mr Virgin with the trowel as a momento of the occasion.
The committee is indebted to Messrs John Tillett and G Rowlands for donations of engraving and stone.
Proceeds from the day amounted to £252. A dance was held at night. [Ref: Victor Harbour Times 27-6-1958]
*District Council of Encounter Bay meeting - correspondence from -
Hindmarsh Valley Progress Association, advising that it will not accept any stone to replace the stone removed from their building site by Council employees.
Resolved that the Association be advised that Council will carry out a reasonable amount of work on their building site to recompense them for the removal of stone, and that Council desires good relations between the two bodies: also that Council paid £32/10/- for a survey of Part Section 121.
Part Section 121: from E J Tucker & Sons, Agreement Sale and Purchase and Memorandum of Transfer of Part Section 121 for signing and sealing.
Resolved that the Memorandum and Agreement for Sale and Purchase of Part Section 121, Hundred of Goolwa, sold to the Hindmarsh Valley Progress Association, be signed and sealed. [Ref: Victor Harbour Times 18-7-1958]
*OPENING OF NEW HALL
Hindmarsh Valley's Memorial Hall, which has just been completed, will be officially opened by Dr A J Forbes MHR, on Friday, 3rd October at 2pm. On the following Sunday, Brig T C Eastick will unveil the honour roll and a dedication service will be conducted by Archdeacon J L Bond.
The building was erected almost entirely by voluntary labour amounting to 2,000 hours over five months by the Hindmarsh Valley Progress Association.
Built of Littlehampton cream bricks, the building is of unusual design and is one of the most modern in the country. It stands almost opposite the old schoolroom that has served the community's needs for the last 40 or 50 years.
It includes dance floor with stage, two cloakrooms, foyer and porch, with three 20 ft stone columns representing the three services. All materials were carted free of charge by district residents. Stage curtains will be provided by the local CWA branch. The hall is valued at £8,000, but the actual cost was in the vicinity £4,500. [Ref: Victor Harbour Times 26-9-1958]
*HINDMARSH VALLEY'S BIG DAY
Friday afternoon last at Hindmarsh Valley saw the culmination of many months of hard, voluntary work by local residents brought to fruition when Dr Jim Forbes MHR, officially opened the new memorial hall in the presence of a large attendance of people from all parts of the district.
Mr Gray said that the land, materials and furniture cost the committee approximately £5,000. He thanked all who had assisted financially and those who had so willingly given of their time and labour in the building of the hall. He particularly thanked Messrs F Rowlands, W Virgin, R Gursanke. W Henderson and the women of the district. Mr Gray also paid a tribute to the work of the honorary secretary (Mr Rex Isaacson) who, during the two years he had been in office, had travelled many hundreds of miles at his own expense.
This fine building is a credit to all concerned. It is of very modern and attractive design both inside and out, and should meet the requirements of the community for many years to come. The stage furnishings are particularly beautiful and were presented to the committee by the members of the Hindmarsh Valley Branch of the Country Women's Association of a cost of almost £200.
Dr Forbes said that he felt honoured and privileged in being asked to officially open the hall that day. This project, he said, had been under consideration for many years, but had been interrupted with the outbreak of World War II. He paid a tribute to the work of past presidents of the Progress Association — the late Mr H B Welch, the late Mr A F Parsons, Mr O B Hutchinson and Mr E Gregory.
Dr Forbes said that the hall would be a lasting monument to those who gave their lives so that we might live and prosper, and he congratulated all concerned if for no other reason than that. Without the sacrifice of these men in war it would not have been possible for that day's ceremony.
The Mayor of Victor Harbour (Mr W W Jenkins MP), who was the guest speaker at the laying of the foundation stone of the hall in June last by Mr W Virgin, referred to the fine architectural design of the hall. The three stone columns in front of the hall, representing the three services, was particularly eyecatching, and the building generally was a fine landmark.
Councillor H E Mayfield said the district council which he represented was not unmindful of the work the Progress Association had done for the district. During the past eighteen months the association had bought the land and demolished the old building which was erected on it, and in its place they had erected a very beautiful hall which future generations would come to appreciate. He said that all owed a great debt of gratitude to the old pioneers of the district and he was glad that that spirit still exists today.
In proposing a vote of thanks to the speakers, Mr W Virgin said he was pleased to see so many old residents of the district present that day. In view of the fact that the building committee had been formed only 18 months ago, he thought they had done a wonderful job in the time at their disposal.
Afternoon tea was served by the ladies of the Valley in the old schoolhouse opposite the new hall.
The opening ball at night attracted a record attendance, the takings amounting to £100. Mr Walter Davis, of Victor Harbour, acted as master of ceremonies.
On Sunday afternoon, despite the severity of the weather, a large number of people attended the hall when Brig T C Eastick unveiled a roll of honour. Archdeacon J L Bond conducted the dedication service. [Ref: Victor Harbour Times 10-10-1958]
*OLD RESIDENTS AT HALL OPENING
It was pleasing to see so many old residents of the district at the opening of the Hindmarsh Valley Memorial Hall last Friday.
Oldest of all was Mr Alex Hutchison, who has passed the 97th milepost. Still active for his years, and quite alert, he was seen pointing out places of interest with his walking stick. As a boy he attended the old school opposite the new hall. Next in order of seniority would be Mrs John Brown (88). The Welch family, early settlers in the Hindmarsh Valley district, was represented by Mrs R R Rose, while Miss May Kenny, a former worker for the local Progress Association and a daughter of another pioneer family, was also noticed among the crowd. Hindmarsh Tiers was represented by Mr and Mrs L E Attrill. who have lived in that district all of their lives. [Ref: Victor Harbour Times 10-10-1958]
*WOMEN GIVE A HAND
At the opening of the Hindmarsh Valley Memorial Hall last Friday afternoon, Mrs J Overall said she was privileged to speak on behalf of the women of the district. She specially commended the women of the Progress Association who had stood firmly behind their men-folk “as women do in all projects their husbands undertake.” Mrs Overall, who is president of the Valley branch of the CWA, said that their organisation were happy to give the furnishings for the stage of the new hall. The curtains, which cost £192, were bought with money from project funds which started soon after the war with war bonds and gradually built up with annual donations from general funds and percentages of functions held. Mrs Overall handed the committee a further cheque for fifty guineas, which will go towards the cost of seating for the hall. [Ref: Victor Harbour Times 10-10-1958]
*Hindmarsh Valley
More than 100 district residents attended a social and dance at Hindmarsh Valley last Saturday night.
The occasion was to celebrate the memorial hall, which was opened in 1958, becoming debt free.
The president of the Hindmarsh Valley Progress Association, Mr W T Henderson, said the organisation began raising money towards this end some years ago by growing a crop on the property of Mr O B Hutchinson. Recently a £500 bequest from the estate of the Fischer family had enabled the hall to become free of debt.
The Chairman of the Encounter Bay District Council, Mr W J White, praised the work the HVPA was doing for the district. [Ref: Victor Harbour Times 28-8-1964]
*HINDMARSH VALLEY CEREMONY
An electric clock mounted in cedar to commemorate the Fischer family was unveiled at the Hindmarsh Valley Memorial Hall recently.
The ceremony was performed by Mrs J R Chibnall, descended from the Fischer family who made generous bequests in the district.
Among other members of the family present were Mr and Mrs A Sweetman and other guests were Mr McAnaney MP, and Mrs McAnaney. [Ref: Victor Harbour Times 2-4-1965]
*Hindmarsh Valley Progress Association
The president (Mr T Brown) presided at the annual meeting of the Hindmarsh Valley Progress Association on July 10. Reports disclosed a year of great activity which included the erection of a new toilet block and other improvements for the memorial hall.
The treasurer's balance sheet, despite expenses amounting to more than $1,000, showed the association to be in a sound position with a credit balance of almost $200.
Reports were also tabled on latest developments in connection with re-surfacing the tennis courts. The Encounter Bay District Council will assist with finance, machinery and labour. This gesture is greatly appreciated by the HVPA. [Ref: Victor Harbour Times 19-7-1968]
*Hindmarsh Valley Progress Association
The chairman (Mr T E Brown) reported on the year's activities which included assisting two families in distress in the area due to circumstances beyond their control. The move was well supported and appreciated.
The main project was the development of the Hindmarsh Valley reserve which was fenced and planted to native trees and shrubs.
The project was initiated by the local branch of the Country Women's Association in conjunction with their 40th anniversary.
The Encounter Bay District Council reconstructed the tennis courts during the year, and part of the cost is to be met by the HVPA over the next two years. Also the Association is to help the tennis club finance and erect a piping and mesh surround prior to the 1969–70 tennis season. Mr Brown also expressed concern at instances of vandalism to the hall premises. [Ref: Victor Harbour Times 1-8-1969]

A Rite Aid pharmacy at 1616 Black River Boulevard in Rome, NY. This store was formerly an Eckerd that converted to Rite Aid in 2007 after the latter acquired the former. This Rite Aid was already in extremely close proximity (less than a mile away) to an already existing (and still operating) store at the time of conversion, at 1727 Black River: www.flickr.com/photos/56907148@N03/14691711273/ Even though after the Eckerd acquistion, Rite Aid has closed stores already in close proximity to others, whether they be converted ones or original stores, laughably, both stores have continued to operate in conjunction with other, even being so close!
