Uhm, I've I bit of a problem keeping my balance on my ladies shoes on this rocky terrain. Therefore I'm kind of stuck holding this pole. Can you please rescue me and offer a hand to help me out? Maybe it's even better when you wrap your arm around me for optimal balance...

The year was 2010 when my nursing supervisor requested that I bring my "special friend" Lucy to Nurses' Week at the hospital. Seriously? Did she really mean it? When I told Lucy of the plan, she was a bit apprehensive as she had never before been to a hospital!
We pulled into valet parking and this nice fella came to the car. I explained that I was a critical care nurse in the ICU, and that my passenger was unable to walk, and could he get a wheelchair for her. He was so accommodating and took off running to get a wheelchair. When he returned and opened the car door, you should have seen the look on his face when he saw Lucy... a mannequin! (Was he thinking... "Please God, do not let this crazy woman ever take care of me!") HA! But he ever so gently lifted her to the chair, and then made sure her shoes were securely on her feet. (I guess he would have a fun story to tell his family when he got home that night!)
As Lucy and I went through the halls of the hospital, you should have heard the shock, giggles and surprise of those we passed. And when our director of nurses saw Lucy, she let out a gasp! A fun time was had by all.
And so... I celebrate this special day!

Last minute decision to visit Forest Farm Nature reserve for the latest sunday club outing. Sat and watched this Heron for about 40 mins or so before it came in range. Gerald and I sat cameras at the ready thinking it would fly off if a train came, how wrong we were. Makes for an interesting backdrop .

We celebrate light in our pictures. Understanding how light interacts with the camera is paramount to the work we do. The temperature, intensity and source of light can wield different photography effect on the same subject or scene; add ISO, aperture and speed, the camera, the lens type, focal length and filters…the combination is varied and multi-layered and if you know how to use them all, you will come to appreciate that all lights are useful, even those surrounded by a lot of darkness.
We are guided by three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, our longing to capture in print, that which is beautiful, the constant search for the one picture, and constant barrage of new equipment and style of photography. These passions, like great winds, have blown us across the globe in search of the one and we do understand the one we do look for might be this picture right here for someone else out there.

Campbell's Chunky Soup, Healthy Request, Heart Healthy, 12/2014, by Mike Mozart of TheToyChannel and JeepersMedia on YouTube
My sister requested a bulky infinity scarf for this Christmas. Very easy pattern to remember and quick to knit. I did not knit to 59in as called for, I stopped at a yard as she didn’t care to wear it looped twice. The construction of the yarn keeps the scarf light even though it is bulky weight.

Earth Designs Garden Design and Build were asked to created a landscape and propose garden design in Leytonstone, London here are the details of the project.
The Terrace House Garden in Leytonstone, London E11
BRIEF:
This plot was a long urban garden and was almost completely bare, but for two large, established trees. The client was attempting to construct a pond in the near right corner using green slate boulders as decoration, and requested that this should be included in the design.
The interior of the house had a modern, contemporary feel fused with Victorian architecture. As the patio doors lead directly from the kitchen/diner into the garden, the garden becomes very much an extension of the house – as such the style of the interiorwas of particular consideration in the design the exterior space.
SOLUTION:
The final design created a low maintenance garden with a simple and contemporary feel. The area directly behind the house was laid with decking, running half way down the left side of the space. New wooden fences, to replace the existing worn out wire fences, were erected down the right of the garden, onto which a selection of clematis and everlasting sweet peas were trained.
The main area of the garden consisted of a tapered, oval shaped lawn, encircled by a raised bed following the same shape as the lawn. A smaller, tapered oval raised bed in the middle of the lawn served to slightly mask the bottom of the garden, breaking up the space and helping to create a sense of intrigue.
The simplicity of the borders was echoed in the planting, which consisted of white flowers and green foliage. Cool, crisp and elegant, a white planting scheme provides an air of harmony and tranquillity, and is well suited to the style of the garden and the interior of the house. An area devoted to graceful architectural ferns helped to accentuate the simplicity
of the space and serves to provide a stunning and effective display throughout the year.
Re-designing the layout of the client’s existing pond, using state boulders together with a powerful pump to produce an effective waterfall, helped to create a striking water feature. The pond and surrounding area was given life with the addition of water lilies and other aquatic and semi-aquatic plants. A bowed Cedrus libani (ssp.atlantica) ‘Glauca’, trailing branches in the water, presented the final flourish to the space.
TESTIMONIAL:
“Katrina and her team worked extremely hard and long hours to complete the garden quickly and with minimum disruption to our home. Considering that we have no access other than through the entire house, there was almost no disruption to our lives.
Watching the garden grow from its original design and come to life was amazing. It exceeded our expectations completely, and the aftercare pack and service offered by Earth Designs was brilliant.
We have no hesitation in recommending Earth Designs to any of our friends, who have also been amazed with our fantastic new garden - of course we have been showing it off at every sunny opportunity. Thanks to Katrina and her team at Earth Designs for such a fantastic design, utilising the space brilliantly and creating an outside space that we are extremely proud of.”

Golden Arrow Pullman Dining on the Bluebell Railway in Sussex. A three-and-a-half hour Saturday night luxury trip steaming from Sheffield Park to East Grinstead and back - twice - on the 11 mile line.
By request, here's how my mom's cactus babies are looking one year on. (Mine met a sad fate while being plant-sat, but I like to think they'd look similar by now.) Mom gave me this one when I moved to where she is, and the contest ended there. This one is unusually tall and skinny, the others are mostly shorter but fatter. To give an idea of relative size, the little pot is, I'd say, about 1.5 inches in diameter.

Units of the San Ramon Valley Fire Protection District responded a full-first alarm to a reported structure fire on Scarboro Place in San Ramon on March 17th, 2014. First due Engine 39 arrived and confirmed a working structure fire with smoke and flames showing and established Scarboro IC and requested all incoming units continue in Code 3. IC was taken over by Battalion 31 (3112) upon arrival on scene. The fire was out by the time I arrived on scene, but all apparatus (with the exception of Engine 32A) were still on scene. A second alarm was struck summoning more engines, more battalion units, and the Breathing Support Unit to the scene. Responding units included Trucks 31 and 35, Engines 34, 38, 32, 30, 39, Paramedic 39, Rescue Medic 31, Battalion 31, 3110, 3112, 3113, and Breathing Support 31.

The Penang Hill Railway is a one section funicular railway which climbs the Penang Hill from Air Itam, near George Town on the island of Penang in Malaysia. The railway first opened in 1923 as a two-section railway, and the system was overhauled in 2010. The total journey time can take between five to twenty minutes. The funicular train coach travels directly from the lower station to the top, but may stop at other intermediate stations upon request.
HISTORY
CONSTRUCTION
The Penang Hill Railway was constructed for the British colonists to enjoy the cooler air of the Penang Hill. The first attempt at a mountain railway on Penang Hill began with a proposal by three British residents, D. Logan, Joseph Heim and Alan Wilson and the formation of a private company in 1897, with funding from the colonial administration. The first attempt was to use steam engines and not funicular, and it proved to be a failure. The line was constructed between 1901 and 1905, but did not work due to technical faults.
The Straits government then organized a new project in 1909. The Penang Hills Funicular Railway was designed by Arnold R Johnson, an engineer with the Federated Malay States Railways, based on a Swiss design. Construction of the second railway cost 1.5 million Straits dollars, and the 2,007m long funicular railway was informally opened on October 21, 1923 and it commenced operation. After a successful trial period, on 1 January 1924, the railway was officially opened by the then Governor of Straits Settlement, Sir L.N. Guillemard. In its first year of operation it carried 35,201 passengers and made 4,021 trips. The Penang Municipality, George Town managed and maintained the railway from its opening until February 1, 1977, when it was taken over by the Penang state Government.
Until 2010, the Penang Hills Funicular Railway had two independent sections due to the difference in gradient between the lower and upper section, and passengers were required to change train in the middle station. The upper and lower sections each had two counterbalanced 40-passenger cars, and each section had a passing loop in the middle and intermediate stops. The cars were pulled by steel cable electrically driven with 500 volts power. The railway has a tunnel which measures 258 feet long and is the steepest tunnel in the world. It took 30 minutes to go up the hill on the funicular service with a change of train in the middle station.
1977 upgrade
The first carriages were wooden with defined first and second class compartments in each one. The four carriages were in use on the railway for over 50 years until they were retired in 1977 and replaced with the red carriages which had fans and automatic sliding doors. Each of the red Swiss-made carriages can hold up to 80 people, mostly standing. They were in use for over 30 years until 2010.
2010 OVERHAUL
After a series of breakdowns, the idea of a complete overhaul of the system with a new funicular railway was mooted. On 22 February 2010, the 87-year-old funicular railway was closed for an upgrade to a new system at a cost of RM63 million. New tracks were laid, and new cars purchased to increase the passenger capacity and the speed of the train. A new base station and a public carpark was also constructed. The timber from the old railway track was re-used in the construction of a new four-storey Penang Hill Visitor Centre at the top.
The new train and railway, unlike the railway before 2010, does not require passengers to change trains halfway up. Passengers can have non-stop service in the new blue and white, air-conditioned Swiss-made cars which is capable of ferrying up to 100 passengers at one go. The funicular train maximum working load has been set at 7,500 kg. It can carry 1,000 passengers per hour compared to 250 under the old system.
In April 25, 2011, the new railway system resumed its service, although initially there were a number of technical hitches which caused the service to be temporarily suspended. The train service runs from 6.30am to 9pm daily, and the new car can reach the top in as little as five minutes.
STATIONS
Visitors can enter the funicular railway at the Lower Station, and the final stop of the ride is the Upper Station at the top of Penang Hill. There are a number of stations along the railway between the Upper and Lower stations - the Middle Station, as well as the Claremont, Moniot Road, Viaduct, and the Lower and Upper Tunnel stations. Since the 2010 upgrade, the train normally proceeds directly to the top without stopping at the Middle Station. It is however possible to stop at some of the intermediate stations by arrangement with the driver.
The Upper Station has been upgraded with the construction of an extended viewing platform named Skywalk, an elevated walkway leading to a food court, as well as a lift, a cafe and a museum gallery. The Lower Station at Air Itam has been improved with a new building with retractable roof and a new multi-storey car park for visitors travelling by car. Visitors can also reach the station on the 204 Rapid Penang bus from George Town, Penang.
FARES & TICKETS
For Malaysian citizens, the fare for a return ticket is RM10 per adult and RM4 per child aged between three and 12. Senior citizens will enjoy cheaper fares at RM4 per person. For non-Malaysian the fare is RM30 for adults and RM15 for children.
The ride continues to remain free of charge for disabled persons holding the OKU card.
Also unchanged are the fares for Penang Hill residents, licensed traders and hawkers and workers, who can purchase monthly season pass at RM24.
