Still managed to don a tshirt and enjoy lunch alfresco. Im writing this review from the recently completed balcony of the Young Vic bar and restaurant.
Sampled the food at The Cut restaurant. Food rating was between a 6 and 7 out of 10.
The sausage and mash lacked any real substance. The bangers had a good texture, bordering on the lumpy (hopefully hand-made) side. The mash was average, and the gravy was sweet but lacked body or any other distinguishing flavour.
The BLT we ordered was in trouble to start as we asked for a veggie version, but the lack of substitutes was a shame, and the bread itself looked like packet sliced loaf, albeit the posh kind.
All in all the day time ambience here is quite good, but the food and service needs to step up a little if it wants to become a frequent place to visit thats worth the price tag. I will give it another go, so hoping for better things next time.

Managed to take a day off work today thank goodness. Went on a tour of Norfolk & Suffolk wildlife reserves - ending up at Sculthorpe Moor. The Marsh Harriers were having a very relaxed day gliding around - didn't seem bothered by the presence of a Buzzard (smallest photo) and at times the 2 species were quite close together. Spring seems well and truly here!

World Vision Kenya's Dryland Development - Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration project near Matuu Town, purchased and spread a mix of our biochar seedballs on one of their community owned and managed sites in November 2017.
Here are some photos of before and after the rains!
We broadcast spread 50kgs of Eragrostis superba grass seedballs and also 5kgs of mixed sesbania sesban, acacia seyal, acacia xanthopholea and acacia tortillis seedballs as well.
The site is looking amazing today after these recent heavy rains - we counted out over 100 sesbania trees and dozens of our acacia seedlings as well!
The Masai Love Grass (#Eragrostissuperba) is producing seed and this 1 acre test plot will provide the first seedbank for the local farmers for planting back on their own farms.
We are thrilled with the progress of this small test plot and will be visiting it often and will keep you updated once we conduct a more thorough analysis and count of the all of the trees.

How Honduras managed to carry out genomic sequencing for the first time
June 2023
When microbiologist Soany Ávilez was selected to implement the genomic sequencing of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in Honduras, she was amazed. In the wake of the pandemic, Soany had started working at the National Virology Laboratory in 2020 performing PCR tests. At that time, genomic sequencing to detect circulating variants of the virus that causes COVID-19 was carried out outside the country. But a project to provide Honduras with the capabilities to do it in situ and obtain faster results was being developed with technical support from the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) and financial support from the United States Government.
Although she lacked knowledge on the subject, Soany remembers that she longed for the opportunity to work in sequencing. "When they chose us (her and her partner Karla Romero) to implement sequencing in the country and move the area forward, I couldn't believe it," she says.
Genomic surveillance allows us to know the evolution of viruses and other pathogens as they change over time. Knowing those changes or mutations that can modify its transmissibility and severity, allows us to guide public health measures. During the pandemic, it was a key strategy to monitor the behavior of SARS-CoV-2 and a technique that is being integrated into the surveillance of other pathogens.
Karla Romero, the other microbiologist in charge of genomic surveillance, acknowledges that the implementation of sequencing in Honduras has been "a great challenge" that required a lot of "sacrifice and commitment" both inside and outside the laboratory.
The sequencing area had to be created from scratch. In 2022, the authorities selected and conditioned a space within the National Virology Laboratory. With the support of PAHO, a sequencer, supplies, reagents, and furniture were purchased, and Soany and Karla were trained in bioinformatics and genomic sequencing at the Gorgas Memorial Institute in Panama.
“All with the aim of strengthening the capacities for genomic surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 and other pathogens in Honduras,” says Gabriela Rodriguez Segura, coordinator of the PAHO Project for the Consolidation of Genomic Sequencing Capacities in Honduras. Before these capacities were created at the local level, samples to determine the variants circulating in the country were sent to the laboratories of the Regional Network for Genomic Surveillance of COVID-19 (COVIGEN) created by PAHO to support countries without capacity to carry out sequencing in its territory.
In March 2023, the effort paid off and excitement took over the National Virology Laboratory when, after several attempts, the first sequencing of SARS-COV-2 in the country was successfully carried out. “We couldn't believe it,” says Soany. "We feel very happy because it was a great challenge and the result made us feel fulfilled."
On March 21, 2023, the results were obtained and it was the first time that the XBB sublineage of the omicron variant was detected in the country and by Honduran health professionals. For Karla, the key was “not to give up in the face of the biggest challenge”.
"It is a milestone for the country that genomic sequencing is being carried out," says Dr. Mitzi Castro, head of the National Health Surveillance Laboratory of Honduras. “It is a historic moment because we are starting from here to carry out future genomic surveillance of other pathogens of sanitary interest to the country,” she adds.
According to Dr. Castro, the country now has state-of-the-art technology. "The laboratory is at the forefront, and that is a success and a source of pride, for which we thank all those who have contributed their bit so that Honduras is not left behind."
The panel presentation Thursday morning offered excellent insights into how targeted publishing and digital media strategies can really pay off. Featured in the panel were:
David Foster, Business Valuation Resources; John Bolton, Interweave; Phil Ash, KCI Investing; and Dr. Aliza and Carl Kravitz.
The Olympic torch passed through Carlisle for the 2nd time in 2 days. I was working yesterday but managed to photograph the procession today as it passed my road end in Stanwix Carlisle..
Managed a few shots at the Lockkeeper Keynsham when kids and the wife were all busy at school!
I liked the reassuring lifebouy against the waterfall, I tried longer exposures to get silky water, but only have a 0.3 ND filter, which was not strong enough... have to save for a Lee Big Stopper!
Constructive critique very welcome, I am keen to learn how to improve

I did manage to get some studying in between taking photos.
My wife is getting better at taking pictures, despite constantly complaining about how heavy my camera is (has a battery grip and heavy prime lens on it)...and actively trying to not learn what I try to teach her about metering, focus/recomposing, etc... :)
We managed to miss Miyuki completely on our previous trip, so we made sure to see her this time. She's always fun to watch, and to see what strange animal she'll make next.
A while ago, we were able to have her make a crocodile for my son (his favorite animal); unfortunately the heat and humidity got the best of it and by the time we got it back home, it was looking a bit shabby and soon after had to be thrown away. Such are the dangers of candy art!
Managed to blow the whites a bit in this one unfortunately but the little perishers were running around so quickly I was determined to get one shot the first chance I got and paid the price !

Collections, trading in
Bandon, Co. Cork since
2007. We are a family run
cafe, clothing and gift shop.
On the 5th of
December 2015, our
worst fears became
a reality when once
again our town began
to flood. I, like many
other traders, stood
in disbelief as the
water slowly flowed
onto the streets and
into our premises. All
I could think of was
my beautiful shop
and my Christmas
stock which had just
arrived for what was
set to be a busy trading
period. One by one,
family and friends
started to appear and
the clear out operation
began. We worked
into the early hours of
the morning to clear
as much as we could
out of the shop. The
flooding peaked around
dusk that morning and
the water level in my
property was just under
two feet...see the 2016 Irish Red Cross Annual Report www.redcross.ie/resources for the story in full
I managed to get lost today. I got the No. 130 bus with the intention of visiting St. Annes Park but I did not know the the bus route had been changed due to extensive roadworks. The bus took a different route which bypassed the park. I got off the bus when I realised that the bus would not be going near the entrance that I normally use but I walked in the wrong direction for about a mile before I realised that I was going the wrong way. I eventually found the park but then my problem was how to get home.
The brothers Arthur and Benjamin Lee Guinness built up an estate of nearly 123.75 hectares from 1835 onwards in the Clontarf/Raheny area and called the estate St. Anne's after the Holy Well of the same name on the lands. Sir Arthur Edward Guinness (Lord Ardilaun) was the person most responsible for expanding and developing the estate and gardens and planted evergreen (Holm) oaks and pines along the main avenue and estate boundaries.
Lord and Lady Ardilaun had no children and the estate passed to their nephew Bishop Plunkett in the 1920s. In 1937, he decided he could no longer maintain such a large estate and negotiations with the Corporation resulted in the house and estate being sold to the Corporation for approximately £55,000 in 1939.
