Peter wanted this particular rhododendron because it makes a particular chemical compound that he has been interested in during his scientific career. I don't remember what the compound is, and I don't particularly want to ask him, because I have no patience today for one of his chemistry lectures... They are always way over my head!!

I remember this morning very well, being bitterly cold and a few days after my freedom after my career of 34 years finished allowing me to be out without having to book holiday.

No invites please, I just want you to smile like I did when I saw this and reminded my childhood when we did the same to an opposing team when we play football (soccer)
41312 will be used for two special photo charters on 15th and 16th September and will be hauling passenger trains on the weekend of the 17th and 18th September.
The loco was built at Crewe locomotive works in May 1952, and spent its entire working career on the Southern region.
Whilst not strictly an S&D loco, members of its class were based for a period at Bath Green Park and 41312 itself was based at Bournemouth, at the southern end of the S&D, from May 1964 until April 1967. The Bath-based engines would have been used on Bath to Binegar and Templecombe to Evercreech Junction local passenger trains.

Lode clay deposit was discovered in 1953 by the geologist J.Slienis. Ten years later industrial extraction of clay for brick-making was started. The clay-pit became world famous when the geologist V.Kuršs in 1970 first time in the history of the world discovered well preserved fossils of Upper Devonian armoured fish and Strunius kurshi fish. Still nowhere else fish fossils in such good condition have been discovered; part of the fossils can be viewed in the expositions and funds of Latvian Museum of Natural History. Nowadays clay is extracted by the company „Lode“ which produces finishing, oven-chimney, and construction bricks, as well as other clay items. The Lode armoured fish deposit is a protected nature monument.

Over 50 years ago as a young farm teenager, baling hay, milking cows and cleaning out hog sheds by hand guided my career decisions more than almost anything. In this photo, the past and the present of farming lie side by side. Round bales replaced the back breaking work of loading and unloading bales on a hay trailer. Few windmills in Minnesota still pump water and the old graineries have been largely replaced by newer methods of drying crops.

Castle Drogo is a country house and mixed-revivalist castle near Drewsteignton, Devon, England. Constructed between 1911 and 1930, it was the last castle to be built in England. The client was Julius Drewe, the hugely successful founder of the Home and Colonial Stores. Drewe chose the site in the belief that it formed part of the lands of his supposed medieval ancestor, Drogo de Teigne. The architect he chose to realise his dream was Edwin Lutyens, then at the height of his career. Lutyens lamented Drewe's determination to have a castle but nevertheless produced one of his finest buildings. The architectural critic, Christopher Hussey, described the result: "The ultimate justification of Drogo is that it does not pretend to be a castle. It is a castle, as a castle is built, of granite, on a mountain, in the twentieth century".
The castle was given to the National Trust in 1974, the first building constructed in the twentieth century that the Trust acquired. The castle is a Grade I listed building. The gardens are Grade II* listed on the National Register of Historic Parks and Gardens.
In 1910 Julius Drewe bought about 450 acres (1.8 km2) south and west of the village of Drewsteignton in the belief that he was descended from the Drewe family that once lived here.[2] Born Drew, the son of George Smith Drew and his wife Mary, née Peek, both from substantial families of grocers, Drewe added the "e" to his surname later in life.[3] At the age of 18, Drewe was sent to China as a tea-buyer by his uncle, Francis Peek (c.1836–99), a partner in Liverpool tea-merchants Peek and Winch. Julius's great uncle, Richard Peek (1782–1867), one of the three brothers who founded Peek and Winch, was an abolitionist and philanthropist who was on the organising committee of the anti-slavery conventions held in London in 1840 and 1843. The Peek and Winch company later expanded into coffee, cocoa, rubber and spices, and owned plantations in the Dutch East Indies. In 1878, Drewe returned to Liverpool and opened the Willow Pattern Tea Store. In 1883, Drewe and John Musker (1846–1926) founded the Home and Colonial Trading Association (later Home and Colonial Stores), which sold teas selected in India by Drewe, alongside other groceries. By 1903, the company had 500 stores. By the time of his death in 1931 he had bought up an estate of 1,500 acres. Around 1910 he asked Edwin Lutyens to build him a castle.[4] According to his son Basil, he did so on the advice of Edward Hudson, proprietor of Country Life magazine, who was both a patron and a champion of Lutyens. Drewe was now 54 years old, but he still had time, energy and money to create his new family seat. The budget was £50,000 for the castle, and a further £10,000 for the garden.[5] Lutyens wrote privately of his concern over Drewe's ambitions; "I do wish he didn't want a castle but just a delicious loveable house with plenty of good large rooms in it".[6] On 4 April 1911, Drewe's 55th birthday, the first foundation stone was laid.[7]wikipedia

I bought her at Target yesterday. I love this whole set. She is really pretty and the stuff was made in realistic colors besides the purple top to the examination table - which is way too small, but I still approve. The top and jacket are one piece and she has sensible shoes for standing all day. The box is also great - easy to slide the cardboard out and it can be used for a little diorama.

"what have those two done ?"
"nothing but the King finally bought a television"
requirements: need for money, tough skin
earning prospects: very low but, if lucky, may have some influence on the king
professional risks: humiliations, injuries at the hand of the Courtiers, imprisonment, death
fun potential: probably low
usefulness to society: high
... now, in the modern world may be difficult to find a suitable King + Court but you can always resort to employment with a multi-billionaire businessman and his court ...

Felicity Kendal - Felicity Ann Kendall is an English actress who primarily works in theatre and television, best known for playing Barbara Good in The Good Life.
Felicity Ann Kendal (born 25 September 1946) is an English actress, working principally in television and theatre. She has appeared in numerous stage and screen roles over a more than 70-year career, including as Barbara Good in the television series The Good Life from 1975 to 1977. Kendal was born in Olton, England, but moved to India with her family from the age of seven. Her father was an English actor-manager who led his own repertory company on tours of India, and Kendal appeared in roles for the company both before and after leaving England. She appeared in the film Shakespeare Wallah (1965) which was inspired by her family.
Kendal made several television appearances, starting with Love Story in 1966, and made her London stage debut in Minor Murder (1967) at the Savoy Theatre. She was approached to appear in The Good Life while appearing in The Norman Conquests, and appeared in all four series. She later went on to star in the sitcoms Solo (1981–82) and The Mistress (1985 and 1987) which were scripted by Carla Lane. Later television work included The Camomile Lawn (1992), which, as of 2022, remained the most-watched drama ever on Channel 4. However, the poor reception to the 1994 sitcom Honey for Tea led Kendal to focus on stage rather than television work for some years. She co-starred with Pam Ferris on television in Rosemary & Thyme (2003–2006) as one of a pair of gardeners and detectives.
Her stage career blossomed during the 1980s and 1990s when she formed a close professional association with Tom Stoppard, starring in the first productions of many of his plays, including On the Razzle (1981), The Real Thing (1982), Hapgood (1988), and Arcadia (1993). She also appeared in ten plays directed by Peter Hall, from portraying Constanze Mozart in Amadeus (1979) to Esme in Amy's View (2006). She took her first role in a musical as Evangeline Harcourt in the 2021 London revival of Anything Goes at the Barbican Theatre. In 2023, she starred as Dotty Otley in Noises Off at the Phoenix Theatre and the Theatre Royal Haymarket. Many of her stage performances have been critically acclaimed. Kendal was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in the 1995 New Year Honours for services to drama.

BCOL 4607, my first leading BCOL C40-8M, leads a southbound sand train over Spaulding on the CN Leithon Sub. This guy was getting held for every train under the sun, so we took a risk and bagged him here instead of at JB, which was getting shadowed to no end by this time. Right when we arrived, he got the light over the diamond, and all was well.

Two Volvo B9TL Wright Eclipse Gemini 2 buses that were originally new to London operations are pictured on Princes Street in Edinburgh with rather different roles now.
Leading the duo is McGill's Eastern Scottish operated Bright Bus Tours CKZ 35 - 2908 - Previously BF60 UUJ - Iain Murray - which had previously spent time in 2022 working for Xplore Dundee before becoming part of the Bright Bus fleet. It wears McGill's take on the Bright Bus orange livery which was only ever applied to the six of these that joined the operation.
Behind is Lothian Buses operated LXZ 5409 - 1024 - Previously BF60 VHR - still with all its roof present and working a service on route 4 towards Fairmilehead. It wears Lothian's Fleet Of The Future livery. So two buses with near-identical starts in life that turned into very different diverging career paths to then just end up seeing each other again anyway lol.
