Title: In February 1969, work on the Aylmer Youth Involvement Drop-In Centre was still under way by Aylmer teens. The walls had been painted with murals and the ceiling had been postered. Shown here are Mark Elly (top) of RR 5, Aylmer; Wayne Kristoff (right) of RR 2, Aylmer (both members of the central committee of the AYI); Kirk Elly (bottom) of RR 5, Aylmer; Frank Huse (left) of 191 Elk Street, Aylmer, and a poster of Prime Minister Pierre Elliot Trudeau in the centre. The tentative opening of the drop-in centre was set for the middle of March.

As well as its successful involvement in Grand Prix racing, Auto Union AG also took part in endurance and off-road racing, which were both extremely popular at this time, from 1933. In 1938 and 1939, Auto Union entered the Liège-Rome-Liège long-distance race with three streamlined Wanderer sports cars. These cars had an aluminium body and were based on the chassis of the Wanderer W 25 K. In 1939, Auto Union won the team competition with these cars.
In 2004, Audi announced the rebuilt of Auto Union Wanderer Streamline Specials. The three cars were built by European car restorer Werner Zinke GmbH. The rebuilt cars also entered the Liège-Rome-Liège long distance run 65 years after their original Liège-Rome-Liège runs. Two of the cars, owned by Audi Tradition, went on display in its Museum in Ingolstadt, while the third car is owned by Belgian Audi importer D'Ieteren.

My photo shows the Welbourne Centre, Chesnut Road N17, taken from Fairbanks Road. It gives an idea of the size of the land on which the Centre stands. Naturally, any potential purchaser and/or developer would be interested in what they could build on the site.
In November 2008 some small new pieces were added to the mysterious 'jigsaw' of Cllr Charles Adje's behind-the-scenes and still not properly explained actions in disclosing a confidential Council document about the Centre.
____________
On 19 November 2008, the Tottenham Journal had a news item under the heading
'Group vows to fight council in court over centre sell-off'.
The Journal reported that the Caribbean Senior Citizens' Association had said it will take Haringey Council to court over the Council's decision to sell this land. The Association told the newspaper that it is claiming rights under Landlord and Tenant law.
____________
My Comment
Let's recall that Cllr Adje told the Standards Board officer that:
". . . he sought independent legal advice about the status of the site occupant’s tenancy with the council".
In other words, this was one of the matters in the confidential document which Cllr Adje disclosed to an 'independent' local solicitor.
(IMPORTANT : To be completely clear, I am not suggesting any wrongdoing by the Caribbean Senior Citizens Association.)
____________
At the meeting of Haringey Council on 24 November 2008 LibDem councillors Neil Williams and Lyn Weber each put down a question for Cllr Adje. As questions were not reached in time, Cllr Adje gave written replies.
This surely was an occasion for openness and transparency. An opportunity for full and frank replies; to let in light and fresh air; and to dispel the miasma hovering over Cllr Adje, the secret Standards Board Report and the anonymous solicitor. Below are the questions put by Neil Williams and Lyn Weber. Followed by Charles Adje's contemptuously unhelpful replies.
Cllr Williams :
With regard to the recent findings of the Standards Board regarding the allegation that he disclosed confidential information in relation to the future of the Welbourne Centre, will he apologise to the Council for yet another finding that calls into question his fitness to hold his portfolio?
Cllr Adje :
I certainly do not share his view.
Cllr Weber :
With regard to the recent findings of the standards Board regarding the allegation that he disclosed confidential information in relation to the future of the Welbourne Centre, will he state why did he not seek further legal advice from council officers and/or through council channels, rather than seek his own advice?
Cllr Adje :
I did.

A raid takes place.
A multi-agency operation to tackle organised crime groups has today, 11 December 2012, been unveiled.
Bringing together a wide variety of local and national agencies, the operation has been launched to target criminal networks who cause misery and hardship to communities across Greater Manchester.
The team will investigate every area of a criminal's life - such as their business interests, properties, benefits, associates as well as their involvement in drug dealing and smuggling firearms to identify illegal activity.
Agencies will then be able to use their powers to make it difficult for these criminals to operate, which could include arrests, freezing their assets, evicting them from their homes, seizing their cars or stopping their benefits.
In the past year, Greater Manchester Police along with partner agencies have done a lot of work to tackle organised crime groups across the city, particularly in the Salford area. This has included high-impact raids combined with a focus on neighbourhood policing to encourage residents to work with police, and also the innovative use of gang injunctions to impose strict conditions on those who associate themselves with criminal groups.
The multi-agency operation will build on this work, but brings together more agencies with a greater emphasis on working with the local communities to achieve lasting change. The operation has the support of the Home Office and is being piloted in the Tameside and north Manchester areas, with a view to rolling it out across Greater Manchester and potentially on a national scale in future months.
Chief Constable Sir Peter Fahy said: "Organised crime groups can have an insidious effect on our communities, creating a culture of fear and intimidation and making people's lives a misery.
"Time and time again, agencies are dealing with the same people from the same families which is both a huge drain on resources and the public purse.
We all need to work together rather than in silos to really tackle these problems.
"These people have to be stopped which is why we have created this team who will identify who these individuals are, which criminal networks they belong to and look at every possible means of disrupting their lives.
"By working together in partnership, we will systematically dismantle these groups and deliver long-term change in these communities so that residents no longer have to live in fear of these criminals."
Today, 11 December 2012, a series of warrants are being carried out on every division in Greater Manchester to target those involved in organised criminality.
These have included warrants executed by the England Illegal Money Lending Team, assisted by other agencies, to target the loan sharks who prey upon vulnerable people to help fund these criminal networks.
Assistant Chief Constable Steve Heywood, who is Greater Manchester Police's Gold Commander for the operation, added: "This is not about cutting off the arm of an OCG, but dismantling it piece by piece, member by member. It is about agencies pooling their resources to target every facet of a criminal's life, putting them under so much pressure it is impossible for them to operate.
"If you want to bring down the so-called 'Mr Bigs', you need to strip away their empire. And when you start to pull on the threads of what appears to be minor offences, the whole empire begins to unravel.
"That means taking away their means of transport by targeting the people who chauffeur them around. It means stopping them from obtaining mortgages they cannot legitimately afford to buy second properties used to rake in more cash through rental scams, often bullying tenants into paying exorbitant prices. It means closing down certain pubs and clubs so these criminals can't use them as a haven to deal drugs and line their pockets.
"It is also often the case that criminals set up supposedly legitimate business fronts to disguise their illegal activity. This can make it difficult for the police to pursue criminal charges, but other agencies can use different powers to disrupt their businesses.
"By working so closely in partnership, agencies can share information about every aspect of these people's lives and together we will take decisive and permanent action to stop them causing misery in our communities."
The long-term aim of the operation is to change people's attitudes towards the acceptance and existence of organised crime groups and discourage youngsters from slipping into this lifestyle.
This involves working very closely with residents to understand the different identities of each community, how organised criminality really affects them, and how best to tackle it.
"At the heart of this operation is the needs of the community," ACC Heywood added. "We know each community is different, each suffering different problems caused by organised crime groups or troublesome families.
"So rather than agencies dictating what action is taken, we want residents to tell us about the people who are causing problems so we can go away and develop bespoke plans to disrupt these individuals using every possible tool in our arsenal.
"Together, we can achieve real and long-term change and drive these criminal networks out of business and out of people's lives."
Sir Richard Leese, leader of Manchester City Council, said: "We will be working closely with the police and residents to make sure criminals in east Manchester have a very unhappy Christmas and an even worse new year.
"Organised criminal activity such as drug dealing and illegal money lending inflicts misery upon entire communities and we are doing everything we can to ensure these networks are taken apart and those responsible are brought to justice."
Tony Lloyd, Police and Crime Commissioner for Greater Manchester, said:
"I've been listening to local residents who are rightly concerned about crime where they live. This operation is a welcome example of the police, local authorities, and criminal justice agencies working together with the community to keep up the pressure on gun, gang and organised crime."
Tameside Council Executive Leader Cllr Kieran Quinn said: "The Council fully backs this new operation to tackle criminal networks and will work closely with the police and our other partners to continue to support our local communities."

These images were taken towards the end of the second week of February 2017.
These are the critical stabilisation works at the Silverbridge site, adjacent to the N11 dual-carriageway:
Back in November 2014, we'd observed bank stabilisation works here involving excavation, repair and building of a support wall structure -- carried out by JONS Construction on behalf of the National Roads Authority.
We would occasionally catch sight of this work in the distance. Quite an impressive little piece of structural engineering.
Having built a retaining concave wall, backfilled for solidity, they were also drilling, fixing and sealing ground anchors to pin the entire structure together.
Now we see that further works are being undertaken.
Word has it that extra ‘stabilisation work’ had to be done to protect the integrity of the riverbank.
At the section here we can see that there’s not much space between the edge of the rock face and the Armco at the side of the dual-carriageway.
Have yet to determine what precisely that will entail. Serious work to reinforce the side access ramp down to the river.
The N11 carriageway runs adjacent to this sunken side of the riverbank -- barely 2 (large) paces divide the two. Even with twin strips of Armco along the roadside, it's perilously close. Traffic speeds along this stretch (maximum speed 100 kmp). Only needs a touch from a heavy vehicle to cause secondary impact, which (worst possible scenario) could result in something going airborne.
Working in these confined spaces puts a premium of safety and communication.
The guys have hard-filled a working shelf on the riverbed, to allow machinery access to the rockface. Obviously some serious drilling is called for before a form of extra 'pinning' is put in place.
They have sunk a series of hollowed tubes/casings -- obviously to form the foundations of a more extensive structure.
And some investigative work around the transverse buttress of the access bridge, parallel to the heavy-duty pipeline carrying water down from the Vartry reservoir.
At a (rough) guess -- I'd say the foundations were sunk to a depth of approx 4+m.
With such secure foundations in place, they would then look to construct a substantial bank of material, and/or retaining wall (similar to that in place further along the roadside bank).
=================================================
Previously the guys drilled and sunk 4+metre deep reinforced tubing and rods along a newly laid concrete base. Those stubs were then used to attach steel rod cradles -- which, in turn, were filled with poured concrete. Result - the wall quickly rises. Variation on the method they've used elsewhere along this stretch of the river.
A continuous stretch of protective wall has now been poured, and joined up with the section originally erected back in 2014.
As we can see from the side-on shot, the base of the wall has pre-cut openings for the retaining pins that have been driven into the side wall of the roadside cliff. These have been sealed and capped.
Progress has been rapid, the full stretch of wall is completed, and the guys are now working on back-filling the empty space between the protective wall and the roadside rock face. You don't just throw in a few trucks loads of soil and hope for the best. You load, layer, level and compress.
And, at the same time, the guys are clearing away material used to build access ramps down into the riverbed.
The thought crossed my mind -- in doing so (removing the stone-filled gabions etc,) are they potentially exposing the river bank on that side to erosion, slippage etc?
We know the destructive force of fast running waters. Hell, this is precisely why the protective works have been carried out along the rest of the stretch, down to the Bray Harbour. Unless they have other plans to stabilise it, what is going to be left here is loose soil -- very close to the access road into the halting site itself.
Some repair/reinforcing work is going on here to protect the (old) buttress that supports the pipework carrying water to the Bray region.

Citizen Scientists testing turbidity levels of the water, Sondu Basin.
"This is a turbidity tube for measuring the turbidity, and the citizen scientists they fill the tube with water until the pattern on the bottom is not longer visible and then they are able to read the level of the turbidity using the scale on the tube. This is a citizen science monitoring approach, the objective being to involve the community in matters related to monitoring." – Naomi Njue (CIFOR Intern and PhD Student, Justus Liebig Universitat, Giessen).

A serious road incident involving police horses has prompted a new horse road safety campaign, launched today (28 May) in Manchester city centre.
PC Wendy Townley and police horse Steele were seriously injured in the line of duty while patrolling the streets of Manchester.
A vehicle collided with Steele’s back legs. This caused him to be forced backwards onto the bonnet of the car and smashed the windscreen. Steele was then flung forwards 10 feet onto his knees; falling onto his side, while PC Townley was thrown off Steele. The incident caused significant injuries to horse and rider. Fellow police horse Crackit and his rider PC Emma Whittenbury managed to evade the impact, but were severely shaken up.
After a year of health care and training to recover from the incident, PC Townley is back on duty and Steele is on a ‘back to work’ rehabilitation programme. They are now spearheading a campaign for
Greater Manchester Police (GMP) and charity The British Horse Society (BHS) urging drivers to slow down around horses.
The launch event in central Manchester will be attended by the GMP and Lancashire uniformed mounted divisions with their police horses. Cheshire rural officers will also be in attendance.
The launch supports the BHS’s Dead Slow campaign. In the five years since the launch of the charity’s horse accidents website, over 2,000* reports of road incidents involving horses across the UK have been reported to the charity. Of these, 36 caused rider deaths, and 181 resulted in a horse dying from their injuries or being put to sleep.
In Greater Manchester alone, 28 road incidents have been reported to the charity to date, causing the death of one horse and the serious injury of a rider.
The campaign falls under GMP’s Operation Considerate, an initiative urging all road users to show others more respect on the roads. Greater Manchester Police will be hosting driver horse awareness events across the region, and is supporting the BHS Dead Slow key messaging on their horse boxes to raise awareness.
Alan Hiscox, Director for the BHS, said: “It’s fantastic to see the recovery of PC Townley and Steele, but too often road incidents can cause life changing injuries or unnecessary deaths. This has got to stop. With Greater Manchester Police’s support we aim to make the roads safer for horses and riders in the region.”
Inspector Neil Humphreys from Greater Manchester Police’s Tactical Mounted Unit said: “Thankfully our colleagues and horses made a full recovery but we know it could have been a very different story, which is why we’re delighted to support the British Horse Society with their road safety campaign.
“We all have a responsibility to make our roads safer and the aim of ‘Dead Slow’ is to encourage all road users to share the road responsibly and be considerate of each other.
“When approaching a horse, motorists should pass wide and slow to keep themselves safe as well as the rider and horse.”

Exercise Bersatu Padu
In June 1968, during the Five Power Ministerial Meeting in Kuala Lumpur (involving Singapore, Malaysia, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand), it was agreed that a military exercise involving all five countries would be held in West Malaysia. In view of the eventual British pullout from Singapore in 1971, this exercise would demonstrate the concept of military support for Malaysia and Singapore in the event of an attack by foreign forces on their territories. The exercise was to be called Bersatu Padu, meaning “Solid or Complete Unity” in Malay and bring together 25,000 soldiers, 200 aircraft and 50 ships.
Air Support Command's strategic lift was only part of the Bersatu Padu story which involved 25,000 men, five navies and four air forces, jungle training, and an intensive tactical phase entitled "Exercise Granada."
The strategic lift itself was split into two, the first spread over 10 days in April 1970, lifting more than 2,300 troops, 200 fully laden vehicles, 170 fully laden trailers, 20 helicopters, a dozen howitzers and some 90,000 lbs of cargo. The second part of the airlift was between 14th May and 3rd June when Air Support Command carried another 1,300 exercise passengers and 250,000 lbs of cargo in support of the RAF's deployment of combat aircraft to the Far East.
In less than 4 1/2 days, little Penarek Airfield received a total of 133 aircraft, carrying 2,800 passengers, 285,000 lbs of freight and 323 vehicles ranging from motor cycles to tractors. The sorties were flown by a combined transport force of Hercules of Nos. 47 and 30 Squadrons from No. 38 Group's base at Fairford; Hercules from Far East Air Force's No. 48 Squadron; four Bristol Freighters of the RNZAF's No. 41 Squadron, and two RNZAF Hercules detached for the exercise.
Exercise Bersatu Padu. An overview of the exercise by UKMAMS.
The main exercise in Bersatu Padu was 'Exercise Granada'. This exercise called for the capture of Penarek Airfield, followed by operations against enemy bases by the 4th Brigade (consisting of Malaysian, Australian and New Zealand troops) and 19th Brigade. On 13 June, Penarek Airfield was successfully captured and the airlifting of 19th Brigade took place. By 20 June, four enemy bases had been taken over by 19th Brigade. On 28 June, 5 SIR took part in the final assault on the enemy stronghold, where the role of Ganasian defenders was played by the British Royal Marine Commandos. The assault was a success, with equal losses on both sides (the British unit had 102 “killed in action” while 5 SIR had 105 “killed/wounded in action”). This was a remarkable achievement for 5 SIR, for it had come up evens against a more experienced unit (the Marine Commandos were to have a distinguished stint in the Falklands War later on). There were also air and sea exercises held in Butterworth and the South China Sea, but Singapore’s involvement was minimal and provided mainly administrative support.

21st March 2015 saw Miles Continental ŠKODA's first involvement with the Coffee Culture Le Race. For us, the day itself was a culmination of 5 months of training with our very own 'ŠKODA Cycle Wave'. Along with the support of fellow local businesses, we trained together throughout the months and started the race itself as one.
At the end of the race, our guests had use of the ŠKODA tent, with lounge facilities and refreshments.
We really enjoyed the entire event and look forward to the next one.
