I wasn't expecting to find this pub hidden next to The Alex. But was aware of it due to it also being owned by the owners of the Jekyll & Hyde on Steelhouse Lane.
The Victoria dates to 1883 by Thomson Plevins, cheerful and eclectic. Ground floor altered probably by Watson & Johnson, 1908. Doorways with curly broken pediments, inset canted bays. Good ironwork grille with rosette on the corner.

The pubs website says that it is late 19th century theatre pub, has loads of character and legend has it, has its own ghost.

i had my first track meet of the season on Thursday, which was great. I got 3rd in 100, 2nd in 200, 3rd in longjump, and our 4x4 team got 1st. Which means that we just might win league this year!
Anyways, we went to my friend Allison's grandpa's house (she's in the picture before this one) and the hills were supposed to be covered in flowers, but they weren't. Plus the light was crap. So, we wandered up and down the mountain and tried to find shade that wasn't too dark (reflector coming in the mail, thank goodness). I think i got a few good ones, but I am afraid of getting too repetitive in shoots.
But i am so happy. I feel like i've rediscovered photography.
p.s. meet kelsey(:
As expected, the bear has been eating apples and grapes from neighbourhood orchards and vineyards.

I wasn't expecting to see many Monarchs this year...but the past couple of weeks it seems like every time I go by this particular location I'm sure to spot a Monarch every time. As I was approaching the area I found myself thinking, "Now I can't expect to see a Monarch butterfly every time I'm here," and then one flew right over me, much to my delight. Yay!
Over the next two years, Metro expects to have flooring installed on all 5000- and 6000-series cars.

Like I expected, 6 molds all filled with room on the top to spare and no waste! Now, I just have to wait a few hours to see how they turn out! Stay tuned...
So this is the first time ever I write down ingredient and measurements of something I made. That way I know what to adjust for next time. All ingredients are organic!
Jacq's Creamy Citrusy Strawberry Pops
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup orange juice
1 lime - juice and zest
1 lemon - juice and zest
2 cups of strawberries
Measure and blend everything together well. Fill the popsicle molds till there is about 1/4 inch of space from the top to compensate for expansion. Everything I read says 3-4 hours to freeze the pops, so it will be perfect after lunch dessert for me!
After arriving to a rain of bullets and being derailed by bombs, this became the last ever train to run along the Gyeongui Line which connected the north and south. Since then, the railways themselves have been decommissioned and nothing moves between them.

This is a photograph from the BHAA K-Club 10KM Road Race and Fun Run 2014 was held at the K-Club Golf and Hotel Resort, Straffan, Co. Kildare, Ireland on Saturday 12th of April 2013 at 11:00. The race, an annual event, has become famous for it's very fast and flat course which starts and finishes within the grounds of the K-Club. While the weather was dry there was a tough breeze in places which made running conditions a little harder than expected. The road race has gained fame through it's PB potential but the spread of refreshments and catering afterwards are now legendary and are of the highest standard imaginable. Race director Gerry Byrne and a very large team of volunteers, K-Club staff, and local Gardai must be given the highest of compliments for the staging of the event. Well done everyone.
We have an extensive set of photographs on our Flickr Photostream: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157643843402565/

All profits from the event are donated to charity with the chosen charity for the race being the Parkinsons Association of Ireland. With stiff competition from a number of Parkruns and other races in the North Leinster area the K-Club 10KM stood out for it's flawless organisation, large field, and epic spread of refreshments afterwards.
Who are the BHAA? The BHAA (Business Houses Athletic Association) is a work place athletic organisation who's aim is to facilitate colleagues to run together in a series of races. They organise a series of properly managed cross country, trail and road races over the year. To learn more about membership, fixtures, etc you can visit their website bhaa.ie/.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!

ARMY expects that the next member after Jin and J-Hope to enlist in the military is Namjoon " RM "
After Jin, ARMYs were deeply moved by the news of j-hope's enlistment but it seems he's not the only BTS member to enlist this year. Several korean newspapers as well as many ARMYs believe that RM could be the next member to enlist after j-hope after completing this project.
I expect in the real world, the cheetah would consider this javelina to be merely an ambulatory slab of bacon. I put the two together and added some texture from Topaz Textures for Sliders Sunday.

As expected the food was served on a tiered stand. The plate at the top contained most of the sandwiches and salty items (except for the sponge cake). It had the egg salad, bloaters, and cream cheese sandwiches. Sadly, it didn't contain cucumber sandwiches.
The second tier contained the scones. They were served with clotted cream and jam.
The last plate contained the sweet items. No Battenberg or fruit cake for us. Instead, we had lemon poppy seed cupcakes, macaroons and pecan squares. The plate contained a small dish of chocolate sauce.
Found some monarch eggs on our milkweed. We brought them inside to see if we can raise some butterflies.

Much Hadham is a lovely church being much larger than one would expect for its village setting. The church guidebook acknowledges this and points out that the site was owned by the Bishops of London since some date after 952 AD when it was gifted by Saxon Queen Ethelfleda in her will - first to her sister and her brother-in-law Brithnoth, the alderman of Essex - and then to the Bishop after her relative's deaths. I think this is same Brithnoth (spelled variously) who died leading the Saxon resistance against the Vikings at the Battle of Maldon in 991 - see my Maldon church set earlier.

A Bishops' Palace was built nearby and the presence of that palace, and the desire of various London bishops for a more substantial church, led to the construction of the present church which the guidebook admits would not look out of place in a well-to-do town like Ware or Hertford. The building is 121 feet long and the tower is topped with a stiletto-like thin spire called a 'Hertfordshire Spike'.
Dedicated to St Andrew, the present church was almost certainly a Saxo-Norman site but nothing survives today earlier than about 1225. Frustratingly no documents survive before the 19th century as the records should have been in Fulham Palace's archives and should have been transferred to the Guildhall Library in London. Fulham Palace is the main London home of the Bishops of London. An on-site investigation has revealed three phases of construction which - for argument's sake - have been called 13th, 14th and 15th century. It is not possible to ascribe accurate dates to these phases (so far) but future dendrochronology could be used to date the roof timbers with some accuracy and might result in a clearer architectural history.
The oldest part of the church is a weathered door which has now been moved inside and is thought to date to about 1225. It was moved about 100 years later and cut down to fit. Sometime after 1225 the chancel was greatly expanded and this may have been enlarged to allow the bishop and his chaplains to carry out the elaborate rituals which would not fit into a narrow Norman-style chancel. This chancel is Early English in style. Some time later the expansion of the nave was commenced (say 1240-1250) with the building of the south aisle. The first three arches on the south side set the scale for this work and may have been the work of a London mason supplied by the Bishop. This enlargement work continued until around 1280 with two more simpler arches being built on the south side.
Moving into the 14th century (the Decorated style) windows were improved and the north aisle was commenced. In common with many other churches in England the Black Death, in the 1340s, would have brought a halt to any other work as a substantial proportion of the population died along with many skilled artisans. In some English churches it is possible to see where this work halted during the plague. Work at Much Hadham restarted in the Perpendicular style (1390 to 1450). The 90-foot tall west tower carries the arms of Bishop Braybrooke (died 1404) so his arms may date that work at least. Also added were the south porch, a clerestory to the nave and the enlarged east window.
The main furnishings of the church such as the font, some pews, the screen and stalls also date to the 15th century. The pulpit looks like it was made from medieval material but was probably constructed during in the reign of Elizabeth I.

Built in 1929, this 17-story Art Deco-style former passenger railroad station was designed by Fellheimer & Wagner to replace the multiple previous train stations and termini in Buffalo, which were scattered throughout the city and belonged to different railroads. The structure stands on the site of the old Union Depot built in 1874, which closed in the early 1920s. The station began construction in 1925 when the New York Central Railroad settled on building their new union terminal in Buffalo at the site, with the station being built to accommodate the expected growth of Buffalo from a city of about 550,000 people to one with 1.5 million people, and to accommodate continued growth in passenger numbers. However, both of these projections never materialized, with the cityās population growth and the railroadās passenger numbers growth, already slowing in the 1920s, slowing further due to the Great Depression during the 1930s, and then beginning a long, steady decline, only being briefly buoyed by World War II before falling out of favor as automobile travel proved more flexible and air travel more swift than train travel. Due to these circumstances, the terminal was overbuilt and never reached its full capacity during its operations, only coming close during World War II due to resource shortages and mass mobilization of the United States during wartime. The terminal was offered for sale by the New York Central Railroad for one million dollars in 1956, but found no buyers, with continuing declines in passenger numbers, coupled with the decline in the population of Buffalo itself, leading to several services being ended during the 1950s and 1960s. In 1966, the railroad, in an effort to save costs and downsize their facilities, demolished several outbuildings in the complex, and in 1968, the once powerful New York Central Railroad, a husk of its former self, merged with the Pennsylvania Railroad in an attempt to consolidate their expenses and save both companies, but this merger proved unsuccessful, leading to their bankruptcy in 1976, with both railroads absorbed into the public-private partnership known as Conrail.
In the meantime, Amtrak was formed in 1971 to provide passenger rail service in the United States, operating out of the terminal until 1979, with the agency facing budgetary limitations that did not allow them to renovate the aging structure, which, when coupled with the massive expenses of keeping the building comfortable, dry, and well-lit, led to the agency building two smaller stations in Buffalo during the 1970s to replace it. The terminal was subsequently purchased by Anthony T. Fedele, whom managed to maintain the building in decent condition, but was unable to find any interested developers to reuse the building, and eventually fell behind on taxes, leading to the building being seized at foreclosure so the taxes could be recouped by the government. During the time it was owned by Fedele, the building was vacated by Conrailās offices between 1980 and 1984, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984, with the final operations at the terminal, the interlocking towers that once signaled trains arriving at the station, being shut down in 1985. In 1986, the building was purchased at auction by Thomas Telesco, whom did not maintain the building, selling off many artifacts and fixtures from its interior, and proposing grandiose and unrealistic schemes of what he would do with the building, including being a stop on a high-speed rail line between New York and Toronto. The building was then sold to Bernie Tuchman and Samuel Tuchman, with the building seeing further elements removed and sold, and the building continuing to decay.
In 1997, the terminal, then in poor condition, was purchased by Scott Field of the Preservation Coalition of Erie County, whom paid for the buildingās back taxes, and shortly thereafter, formed the Central Terminal Restoration Corporation, transferring ownership of the building to the organization. The building was stabilized and secured under the stewardship of the Central Terminal Restoration Corporation, which opened the building for public tours in 2003, and holds many fundraising events at the station every year. The building has been preserved, but a restoration or adaptive reuse of the structure has so far remained elusive.
The building features a brown brick exterior with an octagonal corner tower, with a large barrel-roofed main concourse structure wrapping around the tower to the south and east. The facade of the tower features multiple setbacks, chamfered corners, corner clock faces at the roofline above the twelfth floor, a rotunda with large archways and buttresses atop the tower with a decorative trim crown at the parapet, vertical window bays that stretch from the buildingās base to the roofline, large entrances with metal canopies, large transoms, and stone surrounds, pilasters, and stone trim and caps atop the parapets. The main concourse portion of the building features large arched curtain walls at the ends of its barrel vaulted roof, a cavernous barrel vaulted interior, large metal canopies over the entrances, and a tunnel underneath that once allowed traffic on Curtiss Street to run beneath the building, though this has been closed since the 1980s due to the buildingās decay, with a light court between the waiting room and a low-rise office block in the front, which sits just east of the tower and presents a similar facade treatment to that of the tower, with vertically accentuated window bays and pilasters. The rear of the building is more spartan in appearance, with a scar from the former location of the entrance to the train concourse to the rear, with the connecting structure having been removed following the discontinuation of railroad services at the building in 1979. The train concourse features multiple platforms with Art Deco-style aluminum canopies with sleek columns, thin-profile roofs, and rounded ends, with the train concourse featuring arched clerestory windows and a gabled roof, and being in a rather advanced state of deterioration with vegetation having grown throughout the structure and the surrounding abandoned tracks between the platforms. Attached to the southwest corner of the main building is the baggage building, a simpler six-story Art Deco-style structure with a buff brick exterior, a penthouse above the main entrance to the building, pilasters, vertically accentuated window bays, steel windows, stone spandrel panels, stone trim, and stone parapet caps, with long canopies along the base of the front and rear of the building that protected incoming and outgoing mail and baggage from inclement weather. To the west of the baggage building is the one-story mail processing building, which features a similar facade treatment, with the main difference besides height being the rooftop monitor windows in the middle of the buildingās roof. Southwest of the baggage and mail processing building, sitting close to Memorial Drive, is a structure that formerly housed the Railway Express Agency, which is more utilitarian than the rest of the surviving complex, and is in an advanced state of decay, with the demolition of the structure being planned to take place sometime this decade. The structure features large window bays with steel windows, stucco cladding on the brick structure, and the remnants of canopies on the north and south facades of the first floor, with a long and low one-story wing to the rear.
The complex is one of the largest designed by Fellheimer & Wagner, and has maintained a remarkable state of preservation in its original form with few changes since its construction, besides some damage from the years of decay and neglect in the 1980s and 1990s. Another notable structure by the firm, and one of the most well-known railroad stations in the world, is Grand Central Terminal in New York City, which was also built for the New York Central Railroad. In addition to Grand Central Terminal, the firm also designed terminals that are more similar in appearance to the Buffalo Central Terminal, including Union Station in South Bend, Indiana, and Cincinnati Union Terminal, with Grand Central Terminal, Buffalo Central Terminal, and Cincinnati Union Terminal being among the largest, most impressive, and most significant railroad stations ever built in the United States. The station, though unrestored, is still impressive, and hopefully will be eventually adaptively reused for an economically sustainable function.
I didnt expect to see this impressive feature when i went for an evening stroll. The scale of it was quite impressive and i felt the only way to do it justice was by creating a 3-shot panorama. The whole thing trundled toward me over the space of 30 minutes or so and eventually produced some quite heavy rain but also a notable drop in temperature.
