World famous tenor Russell Watson dropped in to meet a group of young people at Swinton Police Station back in 2002.
He gave up his time to meet one of the groups taking part in Greater Manchester Police's "Make A Difference" challenge.
As part of the scheme the group would undertake a project to improve community life in their area.
The scheme was also designed to develop life skills and help build self confidence.
Russell was raised in nearby Irlam and was only to happy to lend his support.
Russell rose to fame a few years earlier - after several years singing in clubs - when he was asked to sing the National Anthem at the Rugby League Challenge Cup Final at Wembley Stadium and to sing a number of songs at the 1999 UEFA Champions League Final in Manchester United's treble winning season.
He continues - despite two major health scares in the recent years - to be a hugely popular singer on the wold stage to this day.

Make up your Mind to Make a Difference
We’ve made up our mind to make a difference and unleashing human potential is our mission. Here’s how we do it…The Philanthropy of TheDOJO through Project Based Leadership Training. If someone is looking to make a difference in our world a simple start is performing an act of kindness for a child (most likely it will be remember throughout their life). Donate a toy with us this holiday season, see how below.
20,000 Smiles
Last year TheDOJO Toy Drive raised 230 toys for Toys for Tots, a military organization who distributes the toys to children who are without. Last year 20,000 toys were handed out, that equates to 20,000 smiles of children. What better way to instill a sense of hope in a child’s heart than through compassion? Toys for Tots also donates, all throughout the year, toys to children in our locality that are victims of disasters such as storms and house fires.

The key difference between the Emerson 555 and the Emerson 555V relates to the number of transistors used in their circuitry.
Emerson 555: This model is the original transistor radio introduced in 1958 and initially utilized four transistors.
Emerson 555V: This is a later version of the 555, dating to 1962, and features five transistors. There was also a 6-transistor version made for the British market.
This indicates that the "V" in 555V signifies an update or variation on the original 555 model, specifically involving an increased number of transistors in its design.

I rarely do posed shots at events, I make exception when the subjects ask for a photo themselves, ask to be photographed. This is such an occasion, captured at the opening day of the 2025 Ballinasloe Horse Fair (County Galway, Ireland), the oldest horse fair in Europe, held since the first half of the 1700s. All horse owners and buyers, horse riders and lovers of horses from the region and the whole island gather during this week in Ballinasloe. It is a traditional meeting place of the Irish Travellers as well, who resemble in their lifestyle to the Roma (Gypsies), yet there are not genetically connected with them. The Travellers diverged from the Irish about 500 years ago. www.nature.com/articles/srep42187

I haven't been writing as much here in this little description area, I know. I've been trying to blog more. I hope you have been joining me there. But I'd like to give you a few words with this photo.
A few months ago, I took a picture in the same spot as the photo above. I mean, I've taken a lot of photos in this same spot, but there's one in particular. If you look in my self-portrait set, you'll find it. It's one of the most honest and raw photos i've ever taken. Not just of myself, but of anyone. I'm proud of it but it's hard for me to look at, because I can see exactly what I wanted to capture: the way I felt. It was, as I later wrote, pouring out my eyes.
You may notice a different look in the shot here. You may know what it is. You may guess. You may not care. Any of those are fine with me.
I will just say this: Life brings a lot of bad sometimes. Not because we deserve it. We can hope for good all we want, for the bad to be gone. That won't change things. All we can do is work through the bad, wait it out, do the best we can.
And sometimes life brings good. Not because we deserve it. We can wish for more of it, but why? Instead, we should grab a hold of what we get and celebrate the hell out of it.
These days, I'm celebrating. What a difference a few months can make. You have no idea.
Last stop in Rajasthan: Udaipur. Rajasthan is known for its palaces, forts, and history. Udaipur is no exception. It doesn’t have a “kingdom” to speak of as Jaipur, Jodhpur, and Jaisalmer did, but there is a City Palace, a museum now, which happens to be the state’s largest with a façade 244 meters long and 30 meters high. The palace was begun by the city’s founder, Maharaja Udai Singh II, and completed by subsequent maharanas. There is a uniformity to the palace and it’s not terribly different from some of the others we’d seen: cupolas, courtyards, balconies, towers. All in all, it’s a nice visit and certainly a “must see” if you have a tourist checklist for this town.
The biggest difference between Udaipur and the previous cities we’d visited is the setting. In southern Rajsasthan, Udaipur (population around half million) is nestled among the Aravalli Hills and is on the eastern shore of Lake Pichola. Now, this lake was always here, but not quite at these dimensions. It was enlarged by Maharana Udai Singh II (city founder) to its current size of 4 km (north-south) by 3 km (east-west) by flooding the village of Picholi. Being manmade (or…man-enlarged), it’s shallow and can dry up completely during severe droughts.
Because of its setting, Udaipur is considered one of the most romantic spots in India and, while I haven’t seen much of India, I can certainly say that I can see how this could/would be a romantic spot. My Udaipur experience began when we arrived via overnight bus around 4:00 in the morning on Friday, October 2.
Udaipur was one of the cities where I was not able to actually reserve a guesthouse, but I did have one in mind (Lal Ghat Guesthouse) and we hopped in a tuktuk and made our way there now. Bless their souls and wonderful Indian hospitality for opening the door before the sun had come up and giving us a comfortable – though like most other places, bare necessities – room. (I’m always pleased and impressed, both in China and India, that hotels allow you to check in very early without charging an extra day.)
Needing a few hours of actual sleep, since the bus sleepers felt more like a sarcophagus than a sleeper, we got a slightly late-morning start to the day. The Lal Ghat Guesthouse is located just north of City Palace and on the shores of Lake Pichola. From our room, if you crane your neck just a little bit, you could see the lake (with some flowers in bloom) and the Lake Palace. More on that later.
For now, the first order of business was to find food. I can’t recall the name of the restaurant, but I enjoyed it so much I ate there a second time on my own. It was a few doors south of the guesthouse and, like the guesthouse, was lakeside and afforded wonderful views. Fortified by a delicious lunch of chicken biriyani and reshmi chicken, we made our way to the City Palace (and Palace Museum) and wandered around there for a while.
It’s a very nice palace, mind you, but I was beginning to become a bit anesthetized to grandiose palaces by this point, having been to Jaipur, Jaisalmer, and Jodhpur in the past seven days. Though this is the largest, it didn’t rank as my favorite. (Jaisalmer Fort was my favorite as it’s a living fort, followed by Mehrangarh in Jodhpur, then City Palace here in Udaipur; Jaipur didn’t really have a comparable palace to speak of, though it’s the capital of the state.)
Though I was starting to suffer palace fatigue, I still did enjoy myself quite a bit, though I know I was rushing a little. I was more interested in finding “unique” here, which was only with views of the lake. Other than that, it was standard fare for palace museums with the women’s quarters, various displays, and so on. However, it is a pretty building, and I’m certainly glad to have gone there.
From City Palace, we walked out the south gate to take a boat ride around Lake Pichola. This is where Udaipur comes into play in pop culture. James Bond fans may recognize the scenery around Udaipur and Lake Pichola in particular as the main setting from the movie Octopussy. (It was said to have been an Afghan palace in Octopussy.) You’d also have to be a pretty die hard 007 fan to have seen that movie, I think; it’s usually ranked among the worst of the Bond franchise. But, I digress…
There are really two islands in the middle of Lake Pichola: Jagniwas with its Lake Palace Hotel (Taj Lake Palace) and Jagmandir with its own palace. I’ll start with Jagniwas. It’s not a private island, but you can only go there if you are a guest of the hotel…with rooms that start from 40,000 rupees/night. (I don’t know the high end, but that translates to close to 4,000 RMB or over $600 USD/night for the cheapest available. I’ve seen pictures and, while beautiful, I’m not Daddy Warbucks, and don’t expect I ever will be…so will just settle for their promotional pictures on their website: www.tajhotels.com .)
Jagmandir, on the other hand, is an island you can visit, and we did. The boat left the mooring south of City Palace, went northward to give a close-up view of City Palace from the lake, along with Bagore-ki-Haveli up to the north end before veering south and around Jagniwas and docking at the north end of Jagmandir, 800 meters south of Jagniwas (and roughly in the west central part of the lake).
Jagmandir’s palace was built in 1620 by Maharana Karan Singh, and was expanded by his successor, Maharana Jagat Singh. Not much has changed from those days until recently when it was convereted into a small hotel (nothing like the neighboring Taj Lake Hotel). For the Bond aficionados, the Taj Lake Hotel was the main palace of Octopussy, and I believe Jagmandir’s palace is where Bond stayed in the movie. There was also some filming at the nearby Monsoon Palace, but we didn’t have the time to visit there.
Jagmandir didn’t offer much at all in the way of things to do. Once you get to the island, you’re pretty much limited to wandering around an interior palace courtyard (where you can have very, very overpriced drinks and possibly a bite to eat, though the drink prices kept me from looking further, so I’m not certain). After staying in the courtyard as long as you’d like – and the views from and in the courtyard are lovely, though don’t require too much time or effort – you can walk outside to the boat dock where there is also an outer garden that’s quite pleasing, and affords beautiful views of the wooded Aravalli Hills in the west.
After an hour or two on Jagmandir, we finally took a boat back to the mainland (a whole 10-15 minute ride, tops), and then tooled around the area near City Palace and the guesthouse. We eventually had dinner at a rooftop restaurant down the lane from where we stayed which had a nice view of the lake with its shimmering palaces (well-lit by night) and a bit of a nice view for sunset. The best sunset views, I would say, would have been from the islands, though – especially Jagniwas – as you could have an unobstructed view of the sun setting over the hills with the lake in the foreground. The food at the restaurant, like most every other restaurant we ate at, was spectacular. It was a good way to end the first day in Udaipur.
Saturday morning came along and we didn’t have much planned. I was actually glad to spend the majority of the day alone. After running a few errands, I went to Jagdish Temple. This is an “Indo-Aryan temple..built by Maharana Jagat Singh in 1651. The wonderfully carved main structure enshrines a black stone image of Vishnu as Jagannath, Lord of the Universe; there’s a brass image of the Garuda (Vishnu’s man-bird vehicle) in a shrine facing the main structure.” (Per Lonely Planet India.) This is one of the smallest temples I’ve ever been to, though the details were delightful. I was pretty impressed with how intricate the temples were both here and at Jaisalmer.
After a quick half hour at Jagdish Temple, I went back to roaming the streets of Udaipur, eventually finding my intended destination, the Bagore-ki-Haveli. This is a pretty large haveli in the Gangaur Ghat area. It was built by a Mewar prime minister and has 138 carefully restored rooms around courtyards on three levels. These days, it’s kind of a klitschy museum. There are a few rooms that have interesting exhibits of Indian musical instruments (a sitar, obviously, and many others that I don’t recall the names of), and exhibits with turbans – including the world’s biggest turban. (This, by the way, was a bit strange; don’t know why anyone would want such a huge turban. Anyway, it was in a glass case, didn’t photograph terribly well, and none of us are the worse off for that.) The nicest part about this haveli is that, like the guesthouse, it was on the water’s edge, so had a few rather pleasant views.
After finishing up here, I wandered back to the previous day’s restaurant for lunch (and would even eat dinner there on Saturday night; they were probably happy with me…). For either lunch or dinner, I had hariyali murg tikka and cheese naan. Now…I would gladly eat murg tikka (chicken pieces generally made in a tandoor) any day of the week. Hariyali…is a coriander-yogurt-mint marinade. It’s heavenly. I really need to learn how to make that one, though I don’t really have any way to make tandoori chicken.
The afternoon and early evening was spent eating very well and relaxing, and really waiting for the last thing I had planned for Udaipur: Dharohar. This is a cultural event at the Bagore-ki-Haveli that hosts Rajasthani folk dancing, singing, performance, and so on. It’s an hour long and pretty interesting, in addition to being in a nice setting.
Before bidding farewell to Udaipur, I returned for the last time to Lake Pichola to try to get a few pictures of the Lake Palace and Jagmandir by night. A few turned out alright, but not spectacularly.
All told, Rajasthan was an absolutely brilliant way to spend a week, and I was looking forward to the last few days in Uttar Pradesh, beginning with the Taj Mahal in Agra after yet another long overnight train ride across the Indian countryside.
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

During October, November and December, I visited 54 churches in Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire; and St Andrew here is the 53rd of them I have posted.
I visit these churches because I enjoy them, and really begin to notice details and differences and similarities. There are no two churches the same, and what you see on the outside gives no hint of what you might find on the inside.
I must thanks many people for firing my passion for churches and church photography: many were members of the Guess Where UK (GWUK) group here on Flickr. Some are published
authors on ecclesiastical architecture, or run websites dedicated to churches or make stained glass. Passion comes from many directions, I love fining out the history of a church and its parish, the changes the church might have gone through, and during the visit maybe meeting a warden, vicar or parishioner who is fiercely proud of their church, and overjoyed that you have chosen to visit their church, and are only too happy to point out things of interest.
My plan this day was to visit Woodbridge, as a friend had recently posted shots of both parish churches, and both looked well worth a visit. It is this point that I should point out that other than on a train, I had passed through Woodbridge only on two occasions, driving to Sutton Hoo, and had never passed through the centre. So it came as a surprise to find that Woodbridge is a bustling, thriving and downright busy town. I waited in a line of traffic inching through the town, until I came to a junction pointing to a car park; there was a queue to get in. I could see the spires of the two churches, but as I wnet further through the town, I got further away from the churches, until I was out of the town, and did not feel inclined to turn round and join the line of traffic waiting get get back into the town.
So I drove on, as I was driving to Ufford anyway, and that lay a little further north.
There is almost no break in buildings between Woodbridge and Melton. As I drove over the crossroads at the centre of town, I was on the lookout for a church, and a little further I saw the spire of St Andrew. I found a place to park, got my camera.
Inside, it was clear this was a wholly Victorian church, but there is nothing wrong with that, it has a fine barrelled roof, and what looked like an ancient font, taken I now know from the "old" church which I did not visit, even after seeing a road called Old Church Lane, or something.
------------------------------------------
To see Melton from the railway line, it is not the most enticing of places, but be reassured that it has not decided to challenge Great Blakenham for the title of Suffolk's most industrialised village. Once you get beyond the detritus of riverside industry, it is a very pleasant place. You could argue that Melton today is an industrialised suburb of the town Woodbridge, but the village street still feels reassuringly rural, especially since the bypass was built. Until ten years ago, this thundered under the weight of traffic to and from the American bases, on the other side of the River Deben from here.
Now, the Americans are gone from East Suffolk.And it isn't just the madness of the Cold War which has touched Melton. For an older generation of Suffolkers, Melton was the home of the East Suffolk county lunatic asylum, later St Audrey's Hospital, which along with the railway provided 19th century jobs here in abundance.
As the village expanded towards Woodbridge, it left its little medieval church alone out in the fields; rather than spend their money on a restoration to enlarge it, the Parish decided to build a completely new church, in the new heart of the village. This happened more frequently in Norfolk than it did in Suffolk - St Andrew is really quite unusual. But I must say that this is not a building I admire. The architect was Frederick Barnes, best known for those wonderful railway stations which he built on the line between Ipswich and Cambridge, but the Kentish Ragstone he used here is wholly inappropriate for a Suffolk village. Be that as it may, the new St Andrew is a well-used, well-loved church, and there is much evidence of this inside its rather dimly-lit interior.
The great feature of the interior is the late medieval font which was brought here from the old church. It is one of Suffolk's 13 seven sacrament fonts, one of only ten that have surviving imagery. It is slightly more battered than many of its companions, but it is particularly interesting for its unique 8th panel, which shows the martyrdom of St Andrew. It also has a characterful 'last rites' panel, with a chamberpot and a pair of slippers under the dying man's bed, as at Badingham. This font must have been one of the last of the series; the vinework under the bowl is reminiscent of that on the font at Walsoken in Norfolk, one of the very last fonts to be made in England before the Reformation intervened.
As was fashionable, the church has a long, low north aisle, its darkness alleviated by the dormer window which lights it. There is some good turn of the century glass, especially the Kempe window to St Andrew and St Etheldreda flanking the risen Christ. She is here because this parish was in the liberty of St Etheldreda - that is to say, the living was in the gift of the monks of Ely, and this parish was in the Diocese of Ely after the Reformation. The St Audrey of the hospital is the self-same St Etheldreda, a medieval contraction of the name. In the window, she holds Ely Cathedral as it would look some one thousand years after her death.
Further west, the screen might well be the work of Cautley, installed as it was in 1934 when he was at the height of his influence as Diocesan Architect. Beyond, the chancel has an Anglo-catholic twilight feel to it, which is probably not typical of the current style of the liturgy here.
Melton parish was the birthplace of one of the great unsung heroes of English urban history. Edwin Lankester was a mid-19th century doctor and social scientist. He recognised a correlation between poor water supply and the London cholera epidemics of the 1850s, and was able to show that proper sewerage and water treatment could lead to the complete eradication of the disease. It is him we have to thank for our modern plumbing systems, and he devised what is still today the standard test for the purity of drinking water. As coroner for the county of Middlesex, he was the first to insist that every death should result in a doctor issuing a medical certificate. He was howled down in parliament on the grounds of cost, but today this is standard practice.
His son, Ray Lankester, was an even more famous scientist, whose brilliant work as a rationalist and zoologist was later to be misused by militant atheists. Lankester Junior was one of just eleven friends to be present at the funeral of Karl Marx, an unlikely association for a rural Suffolk parish.
Simon Knott, June 2008
Seen here at Arriva's Tavistock Street, Dunstable depot on a cold morning in February 2001 are several different vehicles. A native Alexander bodied Leyland Olympian G657 UPP is seen being run up for a day's service whilst alongside an ex-County Bus Leyland Lynx H258 GEV and a Routemaster WLT 966 are seen stored. The reasons for the Routemaster being there are not clear although photographic evidence on Flickr indicates that it has been re-registered LSL 827 and converted to a non-psv computer bus by the following year.
How much would taking one step on right (or left) can make during wildlife (bird) photography?
This Much!!
Two shots taken within 15 seconds of each other to get a tiny bush behind the bird instead of boring grey sky.
There are the same cobblestones, near Canal Saint Martin, Paris, and the three photos where made in less then three minutes intervale.
One turning 180° and the other almost against the sun, the third near a trash can a few steps farther.
Just ponder: how different impressions they give, depending on angle, circonstances, and also... what is in our mind.
====
Les trois prises à quelques minutes d'intervale sur le même pavé. Le deuxième contre soleil, le premier à 180° distance et la troisième à côté des ordures à quelques pas de là.
Quelle différences, selon l'angle de soleil, la façon qu'on tourne, nos expériences de vie: pensez-y un peu.
Running out of idea's, so spot the difference to the last one (11-05-10)?
Went to town to get a few things for Sue & buy more bird cakes!
(I had to tweak the levels in Flickr editor - due to lack of sunshine.)

Yay! I finally got to play along with FGR again!
This is for Spot the Difference and Diptychs, for FGR today.
Okay...there are 6 differences (besides the slight tilt of my head - didn't mean to do that).
Can you figure them out? Leave notes! :)

Norwegian inlet at sunset.... yes I promised that there might be a few of these. I have tried to produce each shot a little differently through. Still to come are extreme HDR/ Orton effect and one other.. probably!
During a visit to the mound in this game between the St Louis Cardinals and the Atlanta Braves at Turner Field in Atlanta, GA, two outfielders, Matt Holliday (#7) and Shane Robinson (#43), met for an outfield conference. I couldn't resist the photo that show such a difference in these two players. Holliday is 6' 4" and 235 lbs and Robinson is 5' 9" and 160 lbs.
By the way...I also like the Coca-Cola sign in the background and Atlanta is the home of Coca-Cola.

Notice the contrast difference in the surface that runs parallel to Montes Haemus. From "Lunar Sourcebook" - "The history of the Serenitatis Basin has been extensively modeled by Solomon and Head (1980). They propose an early, dilatational stage of the entire lunar crust during basin formation and basaltic activity, followed by a compressional stage as the crust cooled and contracted (Golombek, 1979; Binder, 1986). The oldest lavas, Stage I, erupted in the southern basin rim of Serenitatis. Some of them spilled over into the adjacent Mare Tranquillitatis, where they were collected by the Apollo 11 mission and dated at 3.65 to 3.85 b.y. ago. During this period, the center of the Serenitatis Basin sank under the load of the Stage I lavas. The subsequent Stage II lavas therefore erupted into a newly created shallow depression. They form an approximately concentric annulus within the Stage I lavas; overlap relationships and crater densities leave little doubt that these lavas were erupted later. The last eruptive episode, Stage III, produced the youngest basalts; these occupy the basin center because downwarping had continued. Some Stage III lavas, however, also spilled into embayments around the adjacent Imbrium Basin, illustrating that topographic slopes and gradients were small. The major conclusion of this model is that basin floors downwarp under successive basalt fillings and it is therefore possible that total basalt-fill thickness, predominantly from early eruptions, may exceed a few kilometers. This process also accounts for the existence of compressional ridges. The continued downwarping causes centrosymmetric foreshortening, and thus compression, forming concentric bands of compressional ridges."
