Just a few pictures from Thursday night in Lincoln. We loved it so much a couple of months ago that we just had to come back again.
Quick selfie in the hotel.

I bought this dress back in 2017 and have loved it ever since I first tried it on. Quite modest and subdued, nothing too flashy, but I feel it suits me really well.

Friday night on the Toon. We met up with a few friends, some from the area and some had travelled from Glasgow.
Always a brilliant night out in Newcastle. We didn't make a huge night out of it but we did take in a couple of venues - Eazy Street and Rusty's.
This was taken upstairs in Rusty's. Steph and Joanne in the background.

Gemma and I went away to Birmingham for a fantastic weekend, taking in a trip to the theatre to see the excellent Kinky Boots on the Friday night, followed by Birmingham Belles - a regular trans event in Birmingham.
Pictures from the Friday.
At the Hippodrome to see the brilliant Kinky Boots. I love this picture of the four of us - Trisha, Jenny, me and Gemma.
In the comments below Richard tells of it's branding history with evidence of the last two brands in these photographs as well as Richards (see comments below)
I believe this was known as Five Ways service station which was also home to PMH portaloos which closed back in March 2018

There has been a planning application put in to demolish the current site to replace with a more modern service station/convenience store

Only five of us braved the cold to come outside the warmth of the Cosmo bar. After a short stop in Popworld, we settled in Queens Court.

So this is a build I've had for months now and I think it's come time to post it so I can tear it down and begin anew on an all new Batcave! So for this one it's built on a large grey baseplate, with nine main sections:
Batcomputer: I really loved the setup of the official set, so I basically moved that to the new cave, added more consoles and posted the bat symbol above.
Medical Station: I saw Legoman685 make the X-Ray screen, so all credit should go to him for that beautiful idea. I really loved the chair from Greivous's starfighter set, so i basically just slapped it in there.
Elevator: I really liked the play feature of the official set, so I took the same basic idea and I had to stretch it out to be much taller. It looks really ugly and that's the number one thing I want to improve.
Trophy Room: Simple design, features Bruce's League of Assassins sword, Two-Face's coin, A vile of VENOM, and a kryptonite gem.
BooM Tube: what you see is what you get, helps other heroes and Bat's get around the city, also will lead to the Watchtower.
Equipment Rack: features a rotating wall, one side with baterangs, grappling hook, handcuffs, and bow staff. Alternate side features stand for scuba tank, flippers, and two boomerang baterangs.
Bottom Floor Left: has a latter to get up to the second story, sliding door that will fit all Batmobiles, and a glass case holding the uniform of Jason Todd.
Bottom Floor Right: features the suit display, which works the same way as the equipment rack. The display holds six suits. This will also need to be changed in the new batcave, hopefully fitting 8 suits, maybe even 10.
Batmobile Platform: Basically just a large rotating platform that spins and allows the batmobile to drive in and out.
And that's about it. What do you guys think? What should I add in my second version?

You can't go far wrong with a classic and classy LBD.
*I wrote a lot: but the first comment below has more photos from the shoot if you want to skip my gushing.*
This might just be the perfect couple: Mike and Netty.
Mike and I met 18 years ago, we have now been in each other's lives longer than not. His mom worked with my dad and we were introduced at a company picnic right before 7th grade started. Mike was a *dork* with glasses, braces, a bowl hair cut...I wasn't too cute, either. But I was cool. The first day of 7th grade when he stumbled into me I told him, "Get out of my way, nerd!" By the end of 7th grade we were excellent friends. By high school, we were practically inseparable. I spent more of my high school life in Mike's basement than anywhere else, his mom would make home made pizza for all of us, I grew so close to Mike's family that I called his parents Mumsy and Daddy, and they called me Babs; Mike was an only child and they loved our group of girl-friends and having us over. Mike and I even briefly dated during the period we refer to as "the ugly pupa stage" when neither of us were particularly attractive. We didn't click quite well enough to pull off the long term high school relationship, but we never strayed far from each other's company. We even agreed that if by our mid 20s nothing serious was going on for either of us that we would throw in the towel and marry each other, at least we'd always have fun. We even agreed to get a dog and name it "Rod" so that we could giggle every time one of us yelled, "Come, Rod!" We were dorks, did I mention that?
Luckily for Mike, the amazing Annette came into his life. While in college he was working at a grocery store and helped out a high school senior with something. Wound up dating her. Netty was the best friend. Mike took the girl to prom, Mike's best friend Steve took Netty. Mike and Girl A did not work out, but Netty...there was something about Netty.
One night they were watching a movie at his place and she said, "I wish it was me who had gone to the grocery store that night," and Mike looked at her and knew right then she was it for him and declared, "And I see no reason why I don't love you." They kissed...and are literally living happily ever after.
They own a house, just bought it last summer, in Troy, NH. They have good jobs. They have a gross old lovable cat named Keith. And on a vacation to Puerto Rico in February, Mike realized he couldn't stand not being married to her and proposed. They were married last weekend at their home in NH, with close family and friends. They walked down the aisle together to the song Rumble by Link Wray. Netty danced to The Humpty Dance at the reception.
And then they flew into Seattle, rented a car, and started their honeymoon: a drive down the left coast, from Seattle to San Francisco. Of course, they stopped in Portland to see me.
We fit more into 36 hours than should have been humanly possible: we ate at Henry's and had Young's Double Chocolate Stout on tap, bbq beef sliders, fresh hot bbq potato chips, beer and cheese soup. We did a brief driving tour of the Portland skyline from 405. We had breakfast at Pine State, then ventured into the Gorge for what I dubbed "The Gorge Light" tour. A stop at the Vista House, then to Latourelle (the first big waterfall they'd ever seen), a stop at Shepperd's Dell to pick wild blackberries, Multnomah, and then I hiked them up to Ponytail so they could go behind a waterfall. Netty promptly threw off her shirt and scrambled down to the pool to feel the spray and falls. Every turn their mouths hung slack, Mike kept looking up at waterfalls and stepping backwards he was so blown away. They noticed how green our woods are, and were stunned we were only 30 miles outside of Portland. They also enjoyed the lack of mosquitoes and ticks.
I dragged the reluctant duo back into the city, where we picked up a "youCANhascheeseburger" sandwich at the Brunchbox at 5th and Stark: an amazing cheeseburger between 2 grilled cheese sandwiches, for $5. We ate in Pioneer Courthouse Square and people watched. We took Mike to Apple Music, where he was enthralled by the collection (including a classic Gretsch that he has in his own collection), and he nerded out for almost 2 hours in the place. I remember when Mike started to play guitar! We ate maple bacon bars and tang doughnuts at Voodoo, and then saw the one-armed guitarist.
But the highlight of the day was Patrick and I taking them back to the hotel where they threw on what they'd worn on their wedding day, and we took them to the Rose Garden and Pittock Mansion for their official wedding portraits. Over two hours later, we were all pooped, but happy, and concluded the whirlwind visit with a lovely meal at Bridgeport. As an aside, Patrick was also fascinated when comparing all our tattoos, they were all done by the same artist. Seeing three people and countless pieces all in one place by the same hand was pretty interesting to all of us, actually. Dorks always, I suppose.
I was heartbroken to say goodbye to them, I had cried when I found out I couldn't go to NH to actually be at the wedding, but this was such a lovely concession. Next summer they are returning to Oregon for a full week, we might camp at Crater Lake for a couple of nights, they will stay with us in our place with our crazy Pugs, we'll have more amazing food and beer, and I'm going to take them back into the Gorge for more amazing sights. I am already counting the days till we see them again.
Mike and Netty are that couple that you just want to hate...they're just that perfect together. If they don't spend the rest of their lives together...well let's just say I can't see anything else happening. This is it for them, one of the few couples I've shot who I just think have that *something* you need to work. After 18 years of knowing Mike, I cannot see him with anyone other than Netty, and that's saying something. They can't see it any other way, either.

Drinks in the Cosmo with a group of the girls who had stayed for Saturday too.
Thanks for your visit, kind comments, favorites and have a great week ahead, my friends! PLEASE, SEE IN BLACK!
FLOWER CROWN IMPERIAL: -
Flowers have lost their status as "queen of gardens" due to the fads and the volatility of what is called fancy, one that occasionally still finds refuge in a vessel is called solidarity lily-blood-salmon (Scadoxus multiflorus) , which also bears the names of popular star of Christmas and the imperial crown. One of the probable causes of their decline is its toxicity, the flower produces a potent alkaloid that is poisonous, so that in some corners of Africa's native salmon-lily-bloods it is used as poison and panacea for poorly healed wounds.
The lily-blood-born salmon a bulb that gives rise to light-green leaves with small waves and lanceloadas edges. In the center of the leaves grows a fake stem succulent consistency flourishes where a spectacular collection of fine flower cones that form the semi-circle a red-orange. The diameter can reach 25 cm and its height about 90 cm.
Thanks to its light and beautiful flowers, the lily-bloods salmon lends itself well to growing in pots and in massive, rows and borders - if there are many children and pets on the site, planting in backyards and gardens is not recommended by its abovementioned toxicity. The lily-blood-salmon blooms typically between late summer and late autumn flowers and has good durability (two to three weeks on average). The soil needs to be light, fluffy even for the perfect growth of roots, rich in organic matter and good drainage. She loves water but not waterlogging. It is a flower half-shadow and mild weather, not frost tolerant. Multiplies by seeds and shoots and the bulb goes into dormancy in winter.
The interesting thing about this flower here in Brazil is that its flowering occurs at the end of October, close to All Souls' Day, and dies soon after this day (November 2)!
FLOR COROA IMPERIAL:-
Das flores que perderam o status de “rainha dos jardins” graças aos modismos e à volatilidade do que é chamada de chique, uma das que vez por outra ainda encontra refúgio em algum vaso solidário é o chamado lírio-sangu-salmão (Scadoxus multiflorus), que também ostenta os nomes populares de estrela-de-Natal e coroa-imperial. Uma das prováveis causas do seu ocaso é a sua toxicidade; a flor produz um potente alcaloide que é venenoso, tanto que em alguns rincões da África natal do lírio-sangu-salmão ele é usado como veneno e panaceia para feridas mal curadas.
O lírio-sangu-salmão nasce de um bulbo que dá origem a folhas verde-claras e lanceloadas com pequenas ondas nas bordas. No centro das folhas cresce um falso caule de consistência suculenta onde floresce um espetacular conjunto de finos cones que formam a flor um semi-círculo vermelho-alaranjado. O diâmetro pode chegar a 25 centímetros e sua altura, cerca de 90 centímetros.
Graças às suas flores leves e lindas, o lírio-sangu salmão presta-se tanto para cultivo em vasos quanto em maciços, renques e bordaduras – se houver muitas crianças e animais domésticos no local, o plantio em quintais e jardins é desaconselhável por sua supracitada toxidez. O lírio-sangu-salmão floresce tradicionalmente entre o final do Verão e o final do Outono e as flores tem boa durabilidade (duas a três semanas em média). O solo precisa ser leve, fofo até, para o perfeito crescimento das raízes, rico em matéria orgânica e de boa drenagem. Gosta muito de água mas não de encharcamento. É uma flor de meia-sombra e de clima ameno, não tolerante a geadas. Multiplica-se por sementes e brotos e o bulbo entra em período de dormência no Inverno.
O interessante desta flor aqui no Brasil é que sua floração acontece no final do mês de outubro, próximo do Dia de Finados, e morre logo após este dia (02 de novembro)!

Found this at an estate sale.
The owners had passed away. It's always so interesting to see people's belongings.
I think the woman who owned this beauty suitcase was such an interesting person :)
