I made a mistake on my 1st entry to this challenge , I did not realize that one of the people had to be still alive. So I took Kennedy out and substituted Trump
Getting back into the swing of building again with a second updated Scania truck finished yesterday evening. I started on the chassis of a third at the same time but quickly ran out of parts so I'll need to source them either from older builds or bricklink. The Varley will continue to fill one of my fire station bays as a SEV and get its own minor upgrade in due time.
Comments, criticism and questions are welcome, and keep an eye out for more.
Major confussion: i want a mystic miel, and sooner or later i will add that one to my family. BUT! i like elves, and i love Cullen but the vampire role hasn't been a main role at all in my family. She/ he is neglected. so, what to do?
let go of cullen and give the elf a faceup? Let go of elf and get a mystic later on, which may have elf ears so i'd have 2 in one??
Let go of both and then get a mystic when they are released again??
I think before i decide i may give elf a new faceup in greys like Cullen and then decide who stays.
But That darn Cullen looks always awesome in pics!
Why. Is. This. So. Hard!!!!!!!!!???

The current building, a Jerry O'Mahoney diner, for the Hunter Dinerant in Auburn was moved (great picture of the move here)to its current location in 1951. You can't see it from this angle but the diner sits on stilts above the Owasco River. The diner got its name from then owner Robert Hunter, who would go on to own several diners in Central New York.
Robert Hunter's daughter, Neilia, was a student at Syracuse University. In 1966 Neilia married a Syracuse University Law School student named Joe Biden.
The diner's current owners bought the place in 2011 and have given it much needed TLC. The diner was closed for eight months last year but was open and packed with people when I was in Auburn last month.
Currently operating under Morebus out of Bournemouth Depot after transferral from Southern Vectis after their arrival of Wright Electroliners. Seen at Bournemouth Station on a 5 to Westover Road from Kinson. 1587/88/89 have moved to Lymington and the others distributed between Bournemouth and Ringwood depots.
Currently, due to the allocations of the 61-branded Omnidekkas, it results in one going off the route half way through the day and doing some journeys on the 21, 23 and 52. Here is one of those occasions, passing Whitchurch Hospital, which shut it's doors in 2016.
Whitchurch in the north of Cardiff is seeing more and more deckers, as Stagecoach have not long ago also introduced Enviro400s onto their competing 132 service.

In honor of November's COP at Belem, here is my latte art that illustrates the passage of ocean currents. Also I can't do latte art 😁
In a few months time it will be two years since I last put on make-up, a wig, a dress and stepped into high heels. The transvestite desire within me is dreaming of once more being set free but I do not foresee any opportunity in the coming year to indulge it. Circumstances currently prevent any cross-dressing opportunities and this will affect the future as well. I recognise I need to be patient as my focus has to be rightly on real life and not my fantasies being lived out in the occasional periods of dressing up as a woman.
The truth is I adore being a woman, despite being a man, I feel so comfortable emotionally appearing as a woman and I enjoy the trappings of femininity women can choose to indulge in should they wish. I love to wear make-up, it boosts my confidence, plucking my eyebrows genuinely gives my inner self a real boost as I feel more female. Shaving my legs, chest and arms, tuning away my male genitals and wearing knickers and a bra and having (false) breasts just feels so incredible I feel such inner joy and the sheer delight of slipping into a dress and stepping into high heels and donning a wig and dabbing on perfume….
Even writing about it sends me light head with pure joy. I do love being a woman when I can be. Of course being male certainly imposes limitations on my ability to look and act female so I have to accept I can never truly carry off what I dream of being when I free my transvestite self.
This picture forms part of my lifelong quest and dream of wishing I had a female face, an ambition I will never succeed with but as I say, one ca dream. I was age 55 when this picture was taken on 3 June 2014. I was imagining being female, and even wondered how it would be to go out and be appear alongside a man as the woman in my make-up, hair, dress and heels, scented and feeling girlie…
I conclude all my transvestite activities are untimely fantasy indulgences as I cross-dress in private and have rarely met another transvestite to socialise and chat with. I do like the notion of two women being out an about chatting and no-one realises they are men. All I know is my male gender does have powerful desires to send time appearing as a female and when I do it I feel so alive.
North Adelaide Hotel established 1850.
The current two storey hotel structure dates from 1881 when an earlier 1850 building was replaced using a design by architects Bayer & Withall. It retains its symmetrical front elevation and simple parapet, and the two level verandah with upper balcony and a decorative gable at the lower western end.
This hotel changed its name to the Daniel O'Connell Hotel in the late 1990s. Its former names were the Commercial Hotel and the North Adelaide Hotel. It was first licensed on 18 December 1850 as the Commercial Hotel.
Morris remained owner and publican until January 1852 when he sold the pub and grounds for £300 to J W Probyn. In 1862 German migrant, Frantz Heinrich Wilhelm Iben, together with his wife Margaret became the publicans and two years later in August 1864 were able to buy it. The Iben's association with the hotel lasted forty years. Indeed, following Wilhelm Iben's death in 1877, his wife rebuilt the hotel in 1881 and still continued as its publican until 1891.
In 1904 the hotel was sold to the South Australian Brewing Company who owned it for about ninety years.

*The North Adelaide Hotel at Tynte Street, North Adelaide, is under new management.
Mr Eric Parsons who is well known in the liquor industry has taken over the hotel from Mr Frank Linegor.
Mr Parsons comes from a family of hoteliers and has been in the business all his working life.
Prior to taking over the "North Adelaide" he was in business at Victor Harbour.
With his wife and four children he is settling into his new surroundings at North Adelaide and talking enthusiastically of improvements to the premises.
If you are a football fan you'll have much in common with Eric who seldom misses a match. He is also a keen golf fan. "I am confident that North Adelaide is the logical area for further commercial development in S A" said Eric Parsons at the conclusion of the interview.

Il Monastero delle Clarisse di Santa Chiara della Carità si trova sull'Acropoli di Ferentino. Annesso a questo monastero dal 1803 esisteva la Scuola Pia di Ferentino, anche chiamata Scuola elementare femminile delle Maestre Pie Venerini, Conservatorio di S. Chiara, Conservatorio delle Monache della Carità o delle Suore Maestre del Monastero di S. Chiara. Vi si insegnava a leggere, scrivere e far di conto, dottrina cristiana e lavori femminili. Ma vi era anche la Scuola Magistrale, ossia la scuola che doveva preparare le maestre, che poi avrebbero insegnato nel conservatorio medesimo. Al secondo piano vi erano le scuole comuni, al terzo piano si trovava la scuola “particolare”, attivata per le educande interne e per le alunne provenienti da famiglie agiate.
Nel 1846 venne costruito un nuovo edificio scolastico di tre piani, quello che si vede nella foto. Al primo piano si trovava l'opificio per i telai per la tessitura del cotone, al secondo piano le aule scolastiche ed al terzo piano l'educandato. Questo edificio è attualmente sede del corso di Fashion Design dell’Accademia di Belle Arti di Ferentino. Vi era annessa anche una cappella, la chiesa della Madonna del Buon Consiglio, che raccorda i due edifici del Monastero: il nucleo principale sul lato sud, dimora delle claustrali, e la sede del Conservatorio femminile, dislocata più a nord a ridosso dell’ Acropoli romana, dove le suore tenevano la scuola per le fanciulle ferentinati..

Mia nonna Maria Bianca De Maria (Accettura 1907 - Roma 1988) nel 1924 era una convittrice dell'Educandato Francescano di Ferentino.

The Monastery of Saint Clare of Charity is located on the Acropolis of Ferentino. Attached to this monastery existed since 1803 the Pious School of Ferentino, also called Female Elementary School of the Venerini Pious Teachers, Conservatory of St. Clare, Conservatory of the Sisters of Charity or Conservatory of the Teaching Sisters of the Monastery of St. Clare. It was taught to read, write and do arithmetic, Christian doctrine and feminine works. But there was also the Magistral School, the school that prepared the teachers, who would then teach in the conservatory itself. On the second floor there were the common schools, on the third floor there was the "particular" school, activated for internal teachers and for the students coming from wealthy families.
In 1846 a new three-story school building was built, the one seen in the photo. On the first floor there was the factory for looms for weaving cotton, on the second floor the classrooms and on the third floor the convent school. This building is currently home to the Fashion Design course of the Academy of Fine Arts in Ferentino. There was also a chapel attached to it, the church of Our Lady of Good Counsel.
My grandmother Bianca De Maria (Accettura 1907 - Rome 1988) in 1924 was a boarder of the Franciscan Convent school of Ferentino.
