This house on Barton Street (undergoing some kind of renovation), was used as 221B Baker Street in the Sherlock Holmes film Murder By Decree. In this film, Holmes investigates the Jack the Ripper murders. It is a good film that oozes a spooky atmosphere, & Christopher Plummer & James Mason are fantastic as Holmes/Watson.

Yeager is our oldest client at Back in the Pack and when I was asked if I could photograph him I jumped at the chance.
I like to think of him as our very own Christopher Plummer, full of stories and history and has an air about him that instills trust.
At the end of our portrait session I found out that Yeager has an Oscar in his closet at home. He was just too humble to tell us himself.
That's probably the other reason why he reminds me of Christopher Plummer.
Today’s posting is in honour of the great actor and fine gentleman, Christopher Plummer who died yesterday aged 91.
The first time I saw Christopher Plummer was in the role of Captain Von Trapp in “The Sound of Music” at the Dominion Theatre on 12th April 1966 (see ticket).
I was 14 at the time and on holiday to London with my parents. We travelled from Insch in Aberdeenshire and for a teenager from the country this was an amazing experience. The film was presented as a “Roadshow Screening” (separate performances, higher prices and the film had Overture, Intromission, Entr'acte music). It was projected in Todd-AO (70mm) on a 46 feet wide screen with a 5 feet curvature which gave breathtaking clarity. The Sound of Music played at the Dominion for over 3 years ! (from 29th March 1965 to 31st June 1968).
On returning home to Insch in Aberdeenshire I rushed out to buy the LP of the film and saw it again in Aberdeen many times after it was released nationwide but the Dominion experience was truly unforgettable.
And the DVD in the shot is of the film “Beginners” which we’ll re-watch tonight. Christopher Plummer gained an Oscar for his performance in the film as an elderly man who announces to his son (played by Ewan McGregor) that he has terminal cancer, also that he is gay and has a young male lover. He became the oldest person to win a competitive Oscar.
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye Mr P!
Based on the 1949 memoir “The Story of the Trapp Family Singers” by Maria von Trapp, the film is about a young Austrian postulant in Salzburg, Austria, in 1938 who is sent to the villa of a retired naval officer and widower to be governess to his seven children. After bringing love and music into the lives of the family, she marries the officer and, together with the children, finds a way to survive the loss of their homeland to the Nazis.
In 1998, the American Film Institute (AFI) listed “The Sound of Music” as the fifty-fifth greatest American movie of all time, and the fourth greatest movie musical. In 2001, the U.S. Library of Congress selected the film for preservation in the National Film Registry, finding it “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.” [Source: Wikipedia]

The altar in the former Christ Church (1819) in Saint-André-d'Argenteuil, Quebec, Canada.
It was erected on land donated by Sir John Johnson, Seigneur of Argenteuil.
Canada's third Prime Minister, Sir John Joseph Caldwell Abbott, was born in Saint-André-d'Argenteuil in 1821, the son of Rev. Joseph Abbott (1790-1862) (an Anglican missionary) and served as Prime Minister from June 16, 1891 to November 24, 1892.
He was Canada's first native-born prime minister. Abbott was also the great-grandfather of Canadian actor Christopher Plummer.
As per my chat with a tour guide, this old church only celebrates mass once a year, in November.

I laid my eyes on the pair of statues before the ship had set sail, during the emergency drill exercise... It was a love boat, a boat of music surrounding us...
So during the formal night dinner, I gotta to walk and admire them.
"Music Lovers" Bronze
by Lincoln Seligman (Britush, 1950). "The artist's aim was to capture in bronze the tentative moment when Maria and Captain admit their feelings for each other, one of the most memorable and well-loved scenes in recent film history."
p.s. By now you ought a know these figures were sculpted after Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer who took the leading roles in 3-hour The Sound of Music musical movie.

The tomb of Reverend John Bethune (1751-1815) in the cemetery of St. Andrew's United Church in Williamstown, Ontario, Canada.
John Bethune, a Church of Scotland clergyman, was born into a respected family on the Isle of Skye. Apparently, his youth was marked by poverty, but he received scholarships and eventually graduated with an MA from King’s College, Aberdeen in 1772. He emigrated from the Isle of Skye with several members of his family to North Carolina, a colony that had become a place of refuge for thousands of Highlanders after the 1745 rebellion in Scotland.
When the American Revolution broke out, Reverend John Bethune served as chaplain to the Royal Highland Emigrants Regiment (later known as the 84th), a Loyalist unit. For a time in 1776, he was a prisoner of the revolutionaries in Philadelphia. After his release, he made his way to New York and from there, to Halifax. By August 1779, he had moved to Montreal to take up his appointment as Chaplain to the 1st Battalion of his regiment.
Reverend Bethune helped to found the first Presbyterian congregation west of the town of Quebec, and this initially small congregation later went on to found the St. Gabriel Street Church, the mother church of Presbyterianism in Canada. In 1787, Bethune moved to the western area of the Province of Quebec that was to become Upper Canada in 1791 (later Ontario) and devoted the remainder of his life to his ministry among the Highland settlers in Glengarry County.
His son Angus, was the great-grandfather of Doctor Norman Bethune, perhaps the best known of John Bethune’s descendants, who traveled to China in 1938, and became a hero of the Chinese for his work performing emergency battlefield surgery with the Chinese communists in their struggle against Japanese invaders.
John Bethune was the great-great-great-grandfather of Canadian actor Christopher Plummer.
The Reverend John Bethune is the most honoured and respected of Canada’s Church of Scotland pioneers.

MEANWHILE, ON DEEP SPACE LINE.....
(THIS LOOKS GLORIOUS AT THE ORIGINAL SIZE !! JUST STRIKE THE WHITE ARROW AT THE BOTTOM OF THE BANNER AND SELECT "VIEW ALL SIZES".)
I've been meaning to do this photoshoot for a while, but wanted the right combination of stinking hot but pre-stormy cool change weather and weird Aussie Summer daylight to do it.
Which we had on January 3rd, 2015. It got close to 40 degrees Celsius (around 104 degrees Fahrenheit) on that day, so just before the cool change hit I set this one up outside.
Some points.
-Yes, that is a Klingon Borg.
-Dax is an Honourary Klingon.
-The Klingon beasties on the far right side of the line are there because it's about to rain Jadashas and Targs.
-The transparent Klingon battlecruiser model is present because it made sense to wash its cloak at the same time.
-I probably shouldn't have cluttered the background by hanging out my belts, maille, and armoured tie-fighter as well but I've never really grasped the concept of "Too Much". It was, incidentally, a terrific day to get clothes dry. The hot wind was really blustery, but fortunately still not enough to move the heavy maille pieces around, which I supposed helped keep the figures pegged to the line from wobbling too much.
-Yes, there are more Klingon toys, these are just the ones that fit handily into the frame.
-No, they're not crucified. That line forms on the left. (One cross each, please.)
-No, it wasn't wise to put K'Ehleyr next to the Duras sisters and yes, I'll have to run them through the wash again to get the bloodstains out.
-Yes, Koloth has two dead Tribbles on a stick. Yes, I got them from the new fast food restaurant in the Deep Space Nine shopping promenade.
-No, there's no STMP large Klingon figure present. He's in the medbay having a steel pin put in his broken leg in order to FIGHT ON!
Now, cease your prattling interrogation, puny human!

Signed by Christopher Plummer at Politics and Prose in Washington DC in November 2008. He gave a GREAT talk, and had many fun anecdotes about working with William Shatner in Montreal when they were both 18.
