Hace unas semanas puse el puente medieval de Cabezón de Pisuerga y os decía que lo pondría del otro lado, pues aquí está.

En el primer comentario la otra foto.

The lads at work were keen on Mount Keen (which I did a few weeks ago), so here we are again, cycling up Glen Tanar to get there. The weather is perfect as shown by these reflections in Trout Loch.

 

Mount Keen is my 11th Munro and this is my second time of climbing it. It is the most easterly of all the Munros and stands at 939 Meters (3080 feet), forming an almost perfect cone. A 7 mile cycle up Glen Tanar gets us to the foot of the 2 mile ascent up the mountain.

… on Whitechapel Road, next to the Tube station. Enter left for lectures, right for the gym, at least back in Victorian days :-)

AT THE POOL

Happiness was a day at a pool

in the grass ringed round

with trees up to the sky

 

here I was god’s and my

grandpa’s lad – both died,

happiness is dangerous

 

in the evening the pool has lain down

so mirror-smooth that sky, trees and grass

repeat themselves below the ground

 

fear and longing both ask me

to come back

"Follow me lads!" it seems as the lead bird spreads his wings followed by his flock of friends as they seemingly go out towards the Great Southern Ocean yonder.

Sorry that I'm so far behind and trying to catch up when I can.

Cistercian monastery in Ląd on the Warta River was founded in 1145, probably as a farm monastery in Łekno. After 1193 the efforts of Prince Mieszko Stary settled by monks from the Altenberg near Cologne. Until the 16th century monks were recruited from the Rhineland. In 1511 parliamentary act allowed the entrance to the monastery Poles, and since 1538 the abbot could only be a Pole of noble origin.

During the Russian occupation, in 1819 monastery was liquidated. After regaining independence in 1921, the church and the monastery is owned the Salesians.

Klasztor cystersów w Lądzie nad Wartą został założony w 1145, zapewne jako folwark klasztoru w Łeknie. Po 1193 staraniem księcia Mieszka Starego zasiedlony przez mnichów z Altenbergu koło Kolonii. Do XVI wieku zakonnicy rekrutowali się z Nadrenii. W 1511 ustawa sejmowa umożliwiła wstęp do klasztoru Polakom, a od 1538 opatem mógł być tylko Polak szlacheckiego pochodzenia.

W czasie zaboru rosyjskiego, w 1819 roku zakon uległ likwidacji. Po odzyskaniu niepodległości, od 1921 roku kościół i klasztor jest własnością Salezjanów.

Where to start?

 

Since Helen passed away I've become more involved with the homeless community volunteering for the local soup kitchen.

 

I don't speak about our clients as a rule but occasionally someone hit's a nerve.

 

Will was one of our clients. Doncaster born and bred. Ex-Forces and homeless in Chester. We see this often, which is appalling in itself but he was so decent, clear and circumspect he was a joy to serve.

 

I showed this pic to him, and he said it reminded him of Afghanistan. It's Buttertubs and not entirely sure Buttertubs has been compared to Afghanistan before, or if that's a welcome comparison.

 

Will took his own life yesterday. No more fighting mate.

Brighton Walkabouts

My trip up to Bamburgh before Christmas was not without drama. Perched on the end of some ragged rocks I had just about had my fill of the sunrise and Bamburgh Castle. A quick tripod repositioning as there was not much room on the rock promontory to turn 180 degrees to get a snap of Lindisfarne Castle with a longer lens. Then I decided to take one more photo of Bamburgh with said long lens. Another turn of 180 to get behind the camera, forgetting I had moved the tripod I fell backwards off the rock promontory. My first instinct was to save my camera and lens so I kept a hold of my tripod with an outstretched arm and this instinct probably saved me. As I fell backwards my backpack padded with my isolation layers took the full impact of two foot fall and stopped my head cracking a rock, still I regard myself as very lucky to come out with just a few scratches and not to have ended in the sea. With my heart pumping and adrenalin flowing I picked myself up repositioned, took the photo and quickly got myself on safer ground. For the record here is than photo.
