the Maltese has been given many names, such as the "Melitae Dog," "Ye Ancient Dogge of Malta," the "Roman Ladies Dog," "The Comforter," the "Spaniel Gentle," the "Bichon," the "Maltese Lion Dog," and the "Maltese Terrier." Today, he is known simply as the Maltese.
This elegant toy dog breed is famed for the silky white hair covering his body. Straight and thick, the coat falls all the way to the floor. Many years ago, Maltese came in many colors, but these days they are always white. When a properly built Maltese moves, he seems to float beneath his cloud of white hair. Because he doesn't have an undercoat, the Maltese sheds little, and many people consider the breed to be hypoallergenic.
But the Maltese is more than his coat. Completing the picture is a slightly rounded skull, black nose, drop ears, dark, alert eyes, short, straight legs, and a graceful tail. He's a sweet, intelligent dog who is devoted to his people. And as one of the smallest of the toy breeds, he's well suited to apartment or condo living. Wherever he lives, the Maltese is responsive to his environment and makes an effective watchdog.

WE were given a lecture on these warriors from one of the archaeologists of the museum. When he asked for questions, he was impressed with Charlene's so asked if she would like to hold this piece of tile taken from tomb site. The characters refer to long life and well being, I think
Given that almost all these were taken through dirty, double-glazed train windows they give a fair idea of my view on Friday as I headed west into the sunset on the line from Inverness to Kyle of Lochalsh.
Given how cool it has been and with fall here, I am surprised there is stiil a large flock up at Island Beach State Park.

Meole Brace is a south-western suburb of Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England. The Church of Holy Trinity, Meole Brace was consecrated in 1869 and is believed to be the 4th church on the present site since Saxon (pre Domesday) times. It replaced a 70 year old church of such apparent ugliness that the eccentric vicar of the time decided to replace it!
Holy Trinity is an active and thriving church and was very busy on the day I visited when Christmas preparations were in full swing.
The church is famous for its association with the author Mary Webb, who was married there. It is also know for its collection of windows designed by William Morris, Edward Burne-Jones and Ford Maddox Brown as well as by Kempe and Powell.

Adrines Beach | Skopelos Greece
Adrines is the name given to three small beaches in the bay of Panormos on the island of Skopelos. The local legend is that a pirate queen, "Adrina", drowned herself there.
A string of small shingle beaches along the far side of Panormos bay, extending from Linarakia up to the corner of Milia beach. Each beach is very pretty-all have pine trees just above them, which makes the sea take on a very special turquoise colour , but which also gives them natural shade. Some are tiny coves, just for 2 or 3 people while others are larger. One of the beaches lies below Adrina Beach hotel, so tends to be busier.
Access is via a rather overgrown footpath through the forest from Linarakia, or by taking a path down from the main road which goes on towards Milia beach.

These are some dolls that were given to me. I think they are Fab, I can't do them justice. But happy to have these little ones join my Monster High Dolls. The new girls don't like the other MH dolls so I've put them in a separate living space. Now to name them..

Because I could not be

Given the steep nature of the terrain and need to terrace the hills to make room for shelter, Kigeme camp is vulnerable to landslides and ravines which pose a safety hazard to refugees there and the surrounding community. Additional funding is needed for better drainage.
This does not happen every day.
I was given some old films.
There were two rolls of Ferrania F616 b&w.
One had been opened and had “exposed” written on the box.
The film had indeed been wound through.
According to the box the film expired in 1954 and I know that it must have been exposed at least twelve years ago and then for the last twelve years it has been in a loft! If I develop it will there be anything on it?
It just so happens that I have a Uniplex developing tank, which can take roll films up to116 size.
I could not find any clues about developing times for Ferrania so I decided that Rodinal 1+100 stand developed for one hour was probably my best bet.
I developed the film on 23 June 2013, 59 years after it expired.
Looks like we don’t need to worry too much about expiry dates, latent image regression or matching films and developers. I reckon the results are not bad given the films history.
I have no idea where or when the film was exposed but all the eight 2 ½ x 4 ¼ negatives are of a house interior.
Overall background fog is minimal with some visible toward the edges.

Photograph taken at an altitude of Fifty seven metres at 13:28pm on an overcast afternoon on Thursday 30th November 2023, off Chessington Avenue in Bexleyheath, Kent.
We are so lucky to have a nesting pair of Kestrels that have frequented our garden for water and to hunt smaller birds and mice, for several months now. I was in the kitchen cooking lunch when this beautiful Male Kestrel (Falco tinnunculus), came and landed in the Sweet Chestnut tree (Castanea sativa).
It is a bird of prey belonging to the kestrel group of the falcon family Falconidae. It is also known as the European kestrel, Eurasian kestrel, Common Kestrel or Old World kestrel. In the United Kingdom, where no other kestrel species commonly occurs, it is generally just called kestrel.
Female kestrels are an unremarkable shade of mid-brown, with their upper parts a richer shade than their breast and underparts. Their wingtips are darker brown than the rest of their bodies, and their tails are light brown, barred with darker, almost black banding. Female kestrels’ bodies are speckled all over with mottled darker markings.
