The "deal" then was that I bought some of their artifacts at the end of the tour. The women are getting ready here, bringing out their hand woven baskets and nuts that they carve with animal subjects.

Les Gets is a small, friendly resort that offers a good mix of slopes in its own right. However, Les Gets is part of the Portes du Soleil ski area (in the Haute Savoie region) which is huge. This will keep everyone happy and you can village hop for lunch. In total, there are over 650 km of piste to explore. However, it must be noted that this area lies on the fringe of the Alps at a lower elevation than most resorts. As a consequence, snow cannot be guaranteed and the season is somewhat shorter. The town is partly car free and traditional in style. There are plenty of places to eat and drink and the party can continue late into the night, if desired. Les Gets has 66 groomed trails that can be accessed by using the 52 lifts; 5 of these are gondolas. There is a terrain park at Les Gets and cross country skiing over 12 kms.
The planned diversions due to East Coast engineering work in Scotland, were thrown into chaos on 4 October 2014 after heavy rain caused a landslip and blocked the Tyne Valley line near Brampton. Here one of the East Coast HSTs to be halted by the blockage retreats from the area, running wrong line to the crossover at Low Row where it will gain the up line back to Newcastle. 43295 is now leading the set with 43299 at the rear.

The enormous Hitachi 1200 started casting basin excavation at the SR 520 Pontoon Construction Project site in Aberdeen May 2, 2011. The excavator has an 8-yard bucket and can fill a standard dump truck in one scoop.
This one I thought would be a good magazine cover. Intentionally left copy space at the top for a logo. My intention was to focus on healthy eating for the new year.
Getting naked for their launch of the book Naked Conversations (Robert Scoble & Shel Israel) how blogging is changing the way companies interact with their customers. It's a cool read and they are cool guys! Check it out! Don't worry they didn't strip down anymore...in case you were about to hit the may offend button ;)
While zeroing in in a shot, I got bumped at the moment the shutter went off - this is the shot! One of the hazards of true street shooting, especially in crowded areas. Proper photo to follow

The University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna (mdw) is an Austrian university located in third District of Vienna highway (Landstraße), Anton-von-Webern-Platz 1. It claims to be the greatest art university in Austria and greatest university of music worldwide. Approximately 3,000 students are supported by more than 850 teachers. It is since 2002 structured into 24 institutions offering the artistic, artistic-scientific and purely scientific doctrine. Since 2002 Werner Hasitschka is rector.
History
Already 1808 was discussed on the establishment of a conservatory of Music according to Parisian model (Conservatoire de Paris). The 1812 founded Society of Friends of Music in Vienna this venture had set as it main task, so that already in 1817 a singing school could be launched, which laid the headstone for such an institution. Thus the year 1817 is considered the official founding year of the mdw. In 1819 with the Engagierung (engagement) of violin professor Joseph Böhm instrumental lessons have been started.
With short interruptions during the 19th Century the curriculum was expanded massively, so that in the 1890s more than 1,000 students could be counted. In 1909, this private institution was nationalized on resolution of the emperor and was now kk Academy of Music and Dramatic Art.
With the nationalization it also received an own house: in collaboration with the Vienna Konzerthaus Society from 1912 in Liszstraße a building together with a sample stage (today Academy Theater) was built, into which already in January 1914 could be moved. After World War I, the institution was called State Academy (1919). In 1928, the Academy has been extended to a drama seminar (Reinhardt-Seminar) and a music educational seminar. Between 1938 and 1945 it was continued as a Reichshochschule (Academy of the German Reich) by exclusion of Jewish teachers and students.
After the war, in 1946 the institution again became an art school, from 1970 to 1998 it was called University of Music and Performing Arts, since 1998 it is a university.
In 1952 Walter Kolm-Veltée established special training for film design. In 1960, a film class, led by Hans Winge, was added. In 1963, the two courses were combined into the newly founded "Film and Television Department". There were other additional courses, and since 1998, the department is also known as the Vienna Film Academy.
Building
In addition to its headquarters, the mdw-campus at Anton-von-Webern-Platz in the third district, are other branches in 3rd District in Ungargasse 14, am Rennweg 8, in the Metternichgasse 8 and 12 as well as in the Lothringerstraße 18. In the first district of Vienna teaching locations are situated at Karlsplatz 1 and 2, at the Schubertring 14, at the corner of John Street/Seilerstätte and in the Singerstraße 26. Furthermore, in the 4th District in Rienößlgasse 12, in 13th district in the Schoenbrunn Palace Theater as well as at the Palais Cumberland in the Penzingerstrasse.
Campus
The monumental functional purpose building in the sober, classicist forms of Hofbauamtes located at the former Wiener Neustadt channel (rapid rail line), is located at the Anton-von-Webern-Platz 1. 1776 there on the suggestion of Emperor Joseph II. an animal hospital was built in the former Jesuit dairy farm. 1821-1823 followed a new building by Johann Nepomuk Amann, being planned a sprawling complex. The main building with a long façade extends to the left Bahngasse, there are numerous additions. A major contract received the Kaisersteinbrucher master stonemasons, the spacious entrance hall with Tuscan columns, pilasters and mullioned pillars, the spacios pillar staircase around open shaft, all made of light Kaiserstein with typical blue translucent embeddings - a special room for friends of the emperor stone (Kaiserstein). By 1996, the building was the seat of the University of Veterinary Medicine and its predecessor institutions.
In 1996 the building was chosen as the new seat of the University, and completely renovated by architect Reinhardt Gallister. The historic structure was preserved, elements such as glass, wood and stone are the defining stylistic devices and modern technology and equipment was connected with good room acoustics. Studios, classrooms and halls can be rented externally, too.

The beautiful lower Yosemite Fall. Perfect on a super hot day to get wet and cool off. I love this place..must visit again soon!!
Arriva Kent & Surrey 6402 (GN04 UDP) has been treated to WiFi fitment, joining the Safeguard bus fleet which also has WiFi.
I suspect this will have been some sort of initiative for the Uni service, which is fair enough, and people do like WiFi. However, in the wider scheme of things, WiFi on a bus which is used pretty much only the 38 and 101, which have an end to end journey time of no more than ten minutes (or occasionally the 3 which is about 20) may not be that useful!
That said, Olympian illness means Tunbridge Wells Volvo B7TL/Wright Eclipse Gemini 6125 (LJ51 DHK) is currently on loan to Guildford and in use on the 38, displacing 6402 elsewhere (presumably Green Bus school duties).
Friary bus station, Guildford, Surrey.
My lab/wet darkroom is not ready yet, but close to a workable state.
The sink is large enough to clean trays or to wash prints up to 30x40cm.
The water faucet can swing over to the old Jobo to fill it up. There's just enough room to set up the CPE2plus - that's why I have installed the sink rotated.
Some racks will be mounted over the sink.
