Beamish, The North of England Open Air Museum is an open-air museum located at Beamish, near the town of Stanley, County Durham, England. The museum's guiding principle is to preserve an example of everyday life in urban and rural North East England at the climax of industrialisation in the early 20th century.
Much of the restoration and interpretation is specific to the late Victorian and Edwardian eras, together with portions of countryside under the influence of industrial revolution in 1825. On its 300 acres (120 ha) estate it utilises a mixture of translocated, original and replica buildings; a huge collection of artifacts, working vehicles and equipment; as well as livestock and costumed interpreters.
I awoke at some point very early in the morning, I looked round the edge of the curtains, and the sun was just about to rise, the sky a mix of blue and pink, all over. I needed more sleep.
I woke again just after seven, behind schedule and needing a shower and to pack.
That done I went down to the reception to check out, then go for breakfast, and it was the emptiest I had ever seen it, with just two diners, one being my colleague Manu, so I joined him for coffee and to talk.
The car is loaded, I find some station playing an old Bee Gees track, start the car, open the windows and take the short drive to the office.
Man, it is already hot in the office, and the remote for the air con unit has been lost, so there is little else to do other than to endure it, maybe have the window open ajar. Thankfully that side of the building was in shade for the morning, so it didn't get too hot. And by the time the afternoon arrives, I will be on the road to Arhus.
I find work to do, and fill the morning so that come one in the afternoon it was time to pack up and leave for the 90 minute drive to Arhus.
I say my farewells, it will be two weeks before I am back, so once done, I can walk to the car, across the car park that is so dry it is like a desert. In fact when the wind blows here, sand and grit are blown around, so much so the whole area is called Sahara. Anyway, I get in the car, open all the windows and drive away, wanting to go as fast as possible so that the wind would cool me and the car down.
The Audi is so easy to drive, the steering wheel doesn’t move unless you turn it, it has so much power, it accelerates very quickly. In short, I’m having a blast. Down the motorway for 60 or so km, the turn onto the E45 for the half hour drive up to Arhus South and from there down into the centre of the city, take a left and another 5 minutes to the hotel.
And there I see the first Pokemon Go players. In fact I nearly take four of them out as they run in front of the car, waving mobile phnes in front of them. I park in front of the hotel, check in and take to my room where there is more work to do, enough to keep me busy until half four, when I will go and meet my old RAF buddy, Shaggy.
However, I thought I knew the way, and despite being just a few minute walk from the bar, I convinced myself I knew the way, walked down the hill past the modern art museum, along the road behind it, back up the other side right back to where I started.
I walk round, then see a sign post, so I have to go and check that, and sure enough it points back up the hill, and is some 800m away.
So, by now I was sweating, and walking hard, puffing up the hill, across the intersection, then at the next crossroads, I see the station square, and just a little further on would be the bar.
Shaggs was waiting outside for me, checking with me on Facebook via his phone, sadly mine was in the hotel room, so no chance of answering him. We are meeting because he is going to buy my old 50D body, as I have failed to sell it via e bay, as well as bringing him so British supplies, Bovril and Marmite.
He buys me a drink, and we retire to the beer garden, mixing it with the smokers and wild birds feeding in the tree above us. Its not a bad life, all in all.
After a refill, we go to the diner up the street and have burgers and huge plates of fries and mayo and strong Barley Wine to go with it all. I had no eaten since breakfast, so was hungry, and I can tell you, that it was all good, even though very unhealthy indeed.
Another short walk away was the Mikkler Bar, so we retire there to sample some unusual beers, and at that point I thought we would be calling it a night. Show me the Highlander Bar he asks.
Hmm, I thought I could go in and just have one, so I agree, and we walk along near-deserted streets to the bar, where Julian perks up when he finds he has some ex-forces drinkers in.
We sample the pineapple rum, and some other rum. Then it got silly and we switched onto some far eastern whisky he had just brought back after meeting with the distillers. It was good, aged in sherry casks and is was luscious. Sadly, Julian told me there was an even better one, although twice the price. I can’t resist, and have one for the road, and leave some £65 lighter.
From there it was a short walk back up the hill to the hotel, Shaggs walks back to the station, and all is quiet, apart from the Pokemon players running around on the grass near to the hotel; keeps them fit I suppose.
The Black-naped Orioles are common residents in Mount Faber but they are little shy here and normally they stay in the middle of branches and greenery during day time. Certainly I know they are around because of its loud and melodious four-note whistle… “What the de-vil!” with much individual variation. The male is brilliant yellow with black “Zorro” mask through eyes meeting at nape. They are gracious and measure around 26cm.
What I saw today from my bedroom’s veranda…
Black-naped Oriole - Oriolus chinensis
During daytime the yellow is really brilliant, here is a bit dull because
the picture was taken in the evening with ISO 1600.
A great Sunday for ya’ll

Visitante do começo da noite…
Os Papa-figos com Rêmiges-Pretos são residentes comuns em Monte Faber mas, aqui são um pouco tímidos e normalmente permanecem no meio dos ramos e folhagens durante durante o dia. Certamente sei que eles estão ao redor pelo seu assobio alto e melodioso em quatro-notas… “Quê de-mô-nio!” com variação muito individual. O macho é amarelo brilhante com máscara preta de “Zorro” pelos olhos que junta-se na nuca. São graciosos e medem ao redor de 26cm.
O que eu vi hoje da varanda do meu quarto...
Papa-figos com Rêmiges-Pretos ou Manantéu com Rêmiges-Pretos
- Oriolus chinensis
Durante o dia o amarelo é realmente brilhante, aqui está um pouco escuro
porque a foto foi feita à noitinha com 1600 de ISO.
Bom domingão para todos vcs!

This is one of the most unique rainbows I've ever seen. The colors seemed to go on forever from the inner most stripe. And the sky changed so quickly that the clouds went from grey to blue to gold to pink. Just lovely.

Evening Primrose is one of the best sources of GLA (Gamma Linoleic Acid) , which the body uses in many different ways. It helps to prevent blood clotting, dilates blood vessels and is highly anti-inflammatory, making it useful in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis.
Evening Primrose oil first became known as a secret remedy to combat symptoms of PMS and menopause. The more research that was done on it, the more useful it seemed to become. The list of conditions this seed oil is said to benefit is truly extensive.
Some people absolutely swear by it. It is particularly useful for hormonal conditions such as PMS, menopause and even prostate enlargement. The GLA in Evening Primrose oil is very easy for the body to absorb, which means that it can be highly effective, even in small quantities. It is often used for dry skin conditions, eczema, brittle nails and hair, but more significantly, it is thought to help prevent cancer, reduce inflammatory auto-immune responses, improve circulation, keep the arteries subtle and aid digestive processes and liver function, to name but a few....I'm off to the shop to get some now!

September 18, 2018 - A cotton candy colored cloud in the sky this evening. Taken at the apartment complex where my wife and I reside.
I have passed this building on a hillside some miles from where I live a number of times. I still haven't worked out what it's used for.
D11556. An evening view from the terrace of Shrigley Hall. Situated in Cheshire just outside the village of Pott Shrigley a few miles north of Macclesfield, Shrigley Hall was once the home of a wealthy Lancashire mill owner who became an MP and High Sheriff of Cheshire.
Built in 1825, it is now a hotel and golf course plus a venue for weddings, conferences and other similar events.
