People who require cleanliness are not likely to buy food here, Those who demand cleanliness will not buy food here, though the neighbourhood is in need of such a cheap market, at least no one has heard of anyone getting sick from eating food from such a market.
I have heard this phrase most of my life. Although it is not in the bible, many believe it was coined by John Wesley, the co-founder of Methodism, who often emphasized cleanliness in his preaching.
In this shot, a sea otter grooms and examines its…well…I have no idea what it is looking at or cleaning as I do not know if it is male of female. We just have to assume that it did a good job since it now has its nose in danger close proximity.

An imposing Victorian building that was once a charitable school to help ragged children is now a residential property. A poster on the walls says, “The Shaftsbury Society’s charitable union of The Mint and Gospel Lighthouse mission for the guidance of ragged children in matters of cleanliness, appearance and manners thus enabling them to take up a military career no matter how short.” An engraved stone on the building says, “To the glory of God this stone was laid by the right honourable Lord Mayor of London Sir William P Treloar November 13th, 1906.” (layersoflondon.com)

The theme for "Looking Close on Friday" for the 18th of August is "soap foam". Even before the advent of the Coronavirus pandemic, I was always a fastidious handwasher: something drilled into my daily routine by my grandparents when I was child. Therefore, to whip up some delicate foam from my current bar of lily-of-the-valley hand soap was a pleasure to do for the sake of the theme! I hope you like my choice for this week’s theme, and that it makes you smile.
I was interested in the contrast between the muck of low tide and the - relative - cleanliness of what was above. Pretty sure it was a spring tide today.

ENGLISH
Agerola is known as "little Switzerland" for its beautiful mountain landscape, cool air, and alpine-like streets and cleanliness. This quaint village lets you spend your vacation in a relaxing mountain-like setting without forgoing the coastal pleasures, like boat trips around the divine Amalfi Coast. It includes a few hamlets under its domain, including Bomerano, Pianillo, and Camporra.
It has early Roman origins from the 3rd century BC, settled by refugees coming from San Cipriano Picentino, later conquered by the Romans, as witnessed in the numerous finds, like money dated back to the Age of the Caesars. The Romans stayed in Agerola even after the disastrous eruption of 79 AC that destroyed Herculaneum and Pompeii; the catastrophe did not stop the local development and it continued to thrive with activities like the milk production, extolled by Galen (prominent Roman physician and philosopher of Greek origin) in the 2nd century AC. Agerola became a major manufacturer of brickwork and cutlery; the locals were also considered the best ceramists of the coast.
Before the year 1000 the village got rich and famous for breeding silkworms, a trade learned during the long trips in the East. A great Jewish colony promoted the silk manufacture, which continued until the Italian unification in 1821, when sadly it came to a definitive end.
During the Middle Ages, Agerola was famous for the cultivation of a special type of rose: the white "rosaria", used to make refined perfume essences, a flourishing industry until the end of seventeenth-century. In 1844 Agerola passed to the municipality of Naples. The local breed of cattle, called "mucca agerolese", was used in the production of milk, a symbol of Agerola. The gradual impoverishment of the local population and general discontent following the Italian unification caused a backlash with popular uprisings, called brigantaggio, and Agerola became the area's headquarters.
Located just between the glittering coast with a crystalline sea and the uncontaminated lush green of the Park of Lattari Mountains, Agerola offers exceptional outdoors attractions, in the heart of the Amalfi Coast. The lovely mountain landscape, rich in chestnut woods, meadows and orchards, creates a special atmosphere, where the climate is mitigated by the nearby coast. The particular geographical position, gives to Agerola magic places to enjoy stunning views of the Amalfi Coast and the numerous path immersed into the green belt around the village, crossing the slopes where Agerola lies.
Within the municipality of Agerola is Bomerano, the Path of the Gods gateway.
Once there do not miss:
the Park "Colonia Montana": in the area of San Lazzaro with 1.5 hectares of natural beauty. During the fascism era, the natural environment was embellished with a huge central palace, used as summer camp for youths (a "colonia"). The area boasts many arboreal species, too!
Grotta del Biscotto: typical grotto with a special geological rocky conformation that recalls the famous toasted bread (pane biscottato di Agerola). The grotto is part of the lovely Path of the Gods, where you will be able to admire incredible panoramas.
If you are staying in Agerola during Holy Week just before Easter, have a look at the local procession, something intriguing. The so-called 'processione dei Battenti' is celebrated during the Holy Friday: the Battenti were special friars, so called because in ancient times they used to beat their own back with a double hemp rope and dressed a white hood to cover their faces. The locals do perform this ancient tradition, walking all around the village's narrow streets, accompanied with popular and liturgical chants.

A house with red and blue walls ,red oxide flooring and tiled roof is a common sight in Sirsi.
As you can see, footwear is not allowed inside the house. One can wear them when stepping out but once you come back, leaving the footwear out, washing hands and feet and only then entering the house is the common practice in South India. This rule applies to visitors and guests also. Even in cities, down south this practice is followed with slight modifications.
However, in North India, its a complete different story.

Garbage don't stink in the wintertime so it don't matter, plus it probly ought to biodegrade pretty quick in the brilliant sunlight.
The condo balcony-dwellers would be trashy if they were the ones that threw down the garbage, from off of their balconies.
Ha ha Minneapolitans like to feel such pride in the dainty cleanliness of their city, they keep their eyes closed for huge chunks of the year.

I guess this is a throwback to my days of working in a laundromat...a long time ago. Favorite part of the job: checking for gas leaks with a spray bottle with soapy water (makes bubbles). Least favorite part: finding them.
Thanks for having a look!
There are two rules for travellers in China: Nothing is ever as it seems, and Take nothing for granted. On the first day the sky was clear and the air was good. On this, our second day, the mist was impenetrable, our guide told us there is no smog in China, only mist. Nothing is ever as it seems ....
We drove on a magnificent highway out of Beijing to see and climb on the Great Wall. Our guide was brilliant, he invited us to ask questions and he answered with surprising candour. We asked about his life, where he lives, the cost of living, education and childcare (he had two children in the time of the one child policy). He explained it was possible to have a second child after paying an enormous tax.
We wanted to know about housing, public transport, the costs and complexity of owning a car. It was amazing to drive for more than an hour on a highway edged with rose gardens, and rose gardens in the median strip. There was no litter anywhere, this was the prettiest and cleanest city I had ever seen.
He said workers are assigned a strip of the highway and it is their job to care for the garden on that strip. Similarly there is a person responsible for the cleanliness of every block. That's why there is no litter.
No matter where you go in China, tour groups are funnelled into retail spaces and subjected to the hard sell. We were going to the Great Wall, but first we had to visit a place where jade was carved and sold. This was my first experience of the hard sell, and the pressure was relentless. Have no doubt, capitalism is alive and well in communist China. I took this shot in the jade shop where we were shadowed by smartly dressed women the whole time.
I wrongly assumed the jade shop was a one off experience (assume nothing), but it happened at least once every day we were in China, and I hated it. Very soon I refused to enter these places, and was assigned a minder to keep an eye on me.
I was quite attracted by the cleanliness of the vendor who sells this salad dish.

“With the qualities of cleanliness, discretion, affection, patience, dignity, and courage that cats have, how many of us, I ask you, would be capable of becoming cats?” – Fernand Mery
Excerpt from ckrumlov.cz:
The remarkable system of Connecting Corridors offered the Castle residents the possiblity of free movement among the important places of the Castle's nearby surroundings. It is evident now that it was not just for personal safety or protection against inconvenient weather; we can notice even now that the area of both of the Lower Castle Courtyards particularly served various practical purposes. Likewise, we should not harbor any illusions about the cleanliness of Latrán streets at the turn of the Mediaeval and New Age period.
The promenade through the roofs, accented by wonderful views onto the historical town, has its own unique charm even after the passing of many centuries.
well integrated in the rather squalid atmosphere of the nearby station
The area around, Bicocca , is still, notwithstanding the Hangar Pirelli Museum , the University and the modernity of many buildings , prevalently an industrial area that I did not like particularly, though dignified by art and cleanliness
I found it 2 years ago in Moscow - chaos at old factory and this great sign: "
KEEP WORKPLACE IN CLEANLINESS AND ORDER"

White accompanied by yellow, red or blue, dominates the external decoration of buildings in Alentejo.
It is comforting to see the usual correct maintenance of the facades in the local buildings, thus giving a feeling of cleanliness and freshness, very necessary in the seasons in which the sun is dominant.
This is 'the boss'. We call her just mama. She is a very beautiful female red squirrel at the park. The picture shows her on a thin branch. Even though the background is a bit twitchy I like the cleanliness of the image. It's a few months old already, but for some reason, I just found it in my catalog (Squirrels-2019-0305.jpg)

i caught the dishwasher mid-soliloquy. it was debating cereal versus existentialism. the cereal won. there’s something beautiful about kitchens that don’t pretend to be more than they are. just light, structure and some crunchy drama.

Created by William Valentine Wright in 1860, Wright's Traditional Soap, or Wright's Coal Tar Soap, is a popular brand of antiseptic soap that is designed to thoroughly cleanse the skin. It is an orange colour and for over 150 years, Wright’s Coal Tar Soap was and still is a popular brand of household soap; its successor can still be bought in supermarkets and from chemists worldwide. It was developed by William Valentine Wright in 1860 from "liquor carbonis detergens", the liquid by-product of the distillation of coal to make coke; the liquid was made into an antiseptic soap for the treatment of skin
It no longer contains the natural anti-bacterial 'coal tar' as that is carcinogenic and it has been substituted with 'tee tree oil'. Though toxic in large doses 'tee tree oil is believed to be effective against a variety of dermatological conditions, including dandruff, acne, lice, herpes, and other skin infections. The formula might have changed but that wonderful coal tar fragrance remains.
I don’t believe the little orange blocks of 'Wrights' soap to be superior to any other soap and I'd agree there are soaps which are more pleasing to the eye, that form a lather better and perhaps clean better but in my mind, there is no soap that smells better, that has a more evocative scent and that brings back memories of comfort, cosiness and cleanliness from my childhood!
And I believe that Wrights Coal Tar Soap will be the only bar of soap that you would ever see that has a little motivational Latin motto on it, ‘.....’Perseverando Vinces’ which means ‘Perseverance Conquers All’!
The little things that make me happy:
simplicity, motherhood, yellow, books, family, baking, hugs, laughing, service, warmth, cleanliness, feet, sleeping, beauty, handmade, coke, birthdays, flip-flops, nature, prayers, vintage, love, children, smiles, daisies, flickr, white, photography, learning, spring, gratitude, kisses, creating, light, happiness, magazines, home.

Of course the high bank buildings are shining perfectly in the sun out there - symbolizing the cleanliness and transparency of banking - while actually the dirt covers the windows of the ordinary, humble life.
But for me this picture unveils where the real dirt is, no matter how much they clean their buildings.

Les oiseaux tiennent beaucoup à la propreté de leurs plumages, par tous les temps ils n'hésitent pas à faire trempette dès qu'il y a une flaque d'eau, vous remarquerez l'état de vigilance extrême qui les anime car à ce moment précis ils sont très vulnérables.!
j'ai vu défiler un jour d'hiver par à peine 5°C Mésange, Chardonneret, Rouge-gorge...etc
The birds are very keen on the cleanliness of their plumage, in all weathers they do not hesitate to take a dip as soon as there is a puddle, you will notice the state of extreme vigilance which animates them because at this time precise they are very vulnerable.!
I saw a winter day pass by barely 5 ° C Chickadee, Goldfinch, Red-throat ... etc
ah! the sublime simple pleasure of freshly cleaned, warm white flanel sheets. it trumps that first handful of hot popcorn, downing a cold brew on a hot summer day, and finishing a book. but in my opinion its slotted behind that first cup of coffee in the morning, a deep playful kiss, and the end of business on friday.
have a great weekend my friends. i hope you all enjoy a few simple pleasures - and take lots of dirty pictures. cheers
