Thank you for your comments & Fav.!

This photograph was taken at the annual RAF Cosford Airshow in 2023 cosfordairshow.co.uk . I think this young lady represents a member of the Women’s Auxiliary Air Force (WAAF), which was formed in 1939 to release men for front-line duties in WW2. By 1943, over 180,000 women had volunteered or were conscripted, serving in over 110 different trades and comprising roughly 15% of the total RAF personnel. There was however, always time for a game of Ludo!

  

Dans la commune de Mérinchal, Creuse

While the crops have been harvested and the fields are bare, the trades people are still active through the winter months at the Experimental Farm.

 

The Farm keeps the roads nicely plowed, but not bare, which makes for a lively winter scene.

I scored these awesome casseroles in a trade.

Hello folks.

Sorry for the lack of updates through August. Between birthdays and getting sick, working on orders, problems with packaging arriving, and humidity interfering with faceups, it was a very hectic month.

All August orders are approaching completion and all older orders were shipped out.

 

There will be a lot of spam in coming days so I do apologise for giant wig dumps all at the end of commission months which we hope will be more frequent going forward.

 

We're going to need to slow down a lot for September and will only be taking a very small handful of commissions. We have trades to work on and some complex experiments to figure out. So if you had wanted to get in on that please do email me via the website. Slots are extremely extremely limited this month. frappzillastudio.weebly.com

 

I hope you all have a beautiful September.

  

Gewöhnlicher Löwenzahn

 

Der Löwenzahn verdankt seinen Namen den Zacken, die wie Zähne seine Blätter säumen. Doch wirklich bissig ist die Wildpflanze nicht – im Gegenteil. Der Tausendsassa wird schon seit Jahrhunderten als Heilkraut genutzt. Als Pusteblume fasziniert er Kinder seit jeher.

 

The dandelion owes its name to the spikes that line its leaves like teeth. But the wild plant is not really biting - on the contrary. The jack of all trades has been used as a medicinal herb for centuries. As a dandelion, it has always fascinated children.

Wright's and Cooper's Place is situated off the High Street in Old Aberdeen, Scotland.

It takes its name from one of the six incorporated trades of Old Aberdeen – woodworkers and barrel-makers.

The Wrights and Coopers owned land here, which was leased out and led to the building of this row of houses in the 19th century.

The traditional trades of India artwork by Psyfoot at Belilos Lane, Little India.

Vorrei che tu venissi da me in una sera d'inverno e, stretti insieme dietro i vetri, guardando la solitudine delle strade buie e gelate, ricordassimo gli inverni delle favole, dove si visse insieme senza saperlo. Per gli stessi sentieri fatati passammo infatti tu ed io, con passi timidi, insieme andammo attraverso le foreste piene di lupi, e i medesimi genii ci spiavano dai ciuffi di muschio sospesi alle torri, tra svolazzare di corvi.

Dino Buzzati

 

... infine i tre compagni si allontanarono e partirono, tornando lentamente verso casa senza mai voltarsi, e non dissero una parola... Passarono infine i poggi e presero la Via Orientale, e Pipino e Merry cavalcarono verso la Terra di Buck; e già ricominciavano a cantare. Ma Sam prese la via per Lungacque, e tornò al Colle e di nuovo il giorno stava finendo: Egli vide una luce gialla e del fuoco acceso: il pasto serale era pronto, e lo stavano aspettando.

Rose lo accolse e lo fece sedere e gli mise la piccola Elanor sulle ginocchia.

Egli trasse un profondo respiro. "Somo tornato", disse.

The story of Le Castella is long and follows more or less the same story of the surrounding territories.

For his landscapes that aroused admiration among the ancient travelers, Le Castella was the subject of many legends and even, according to some scholars, the Calypso Island described by Homer in his Odyssey, would be placed right next to the village (in some maps geographical medieval, there is the presence of the name Calypso on one of the islands that were close a few meters or kilometers from Le Castella). It is part of the mythological three promontories "Japigi", identified in Capo Rizzuto, Capo Cimiti and Le Castella, so named by the presence of the legendary Japyx, son of Daedalus, one of the most talented artists of ancient Greece. In fact, as reported some ancient literary evidence (Herodotus, Strabo, etc.), or Japyx Japige fled from Crete following his father on an expedition to Sicily; but on the way back, a violent storm wrecked it at the coasts of modern Calabria, and the town was given the name of "land Japigia".

 

Le Castella was first founded as a Roman colony (but remains of Greek masonry in the back of the fortress may deny it, advancing hypothesis of an ancient phrourion). A pact between Rome and Taranto truce war, ruled that a Roman colony was founded in 3000 settlers, called Castra (or Castrum) in monitoring vessels mutual, if one of the two cities exceeded the limit within which you must navigate, then the truce It would fade. Some legends tell of how Hannibal took refuge under some rocks of the cliff and ran away from there by the Romans, during the era of the Punic Wars.

 

During the Middle Ages we have little data of the country, we have instead some data in the late Middle Ages that show an economic prosperity and population growth (in the thirteenth century. The village was up over 2000 inhabitants); remains of this ancient being are the many professionals gathered in one university having a personal coat of arms.

 

In the fourteenth century,until the sixteenth century. He followed the historical events of the kingdom of Naples, at times Le Castella took active part in the outcome of the government, in fact, there was resistance to the rule of the Aragonese, from the inhabitants of the village who were faithful to the Angevins; after a long resistance where almost the entire population barricaded himself inside the fortress, the Aragonese were the domain of the fortress and the village. The event is known as the Battle of Le Castella, was a series of decisive battles in the Sicilian Vespers. It was during the Aragonese period that the fortress took the architectural forms today. Andrea Carafa commissioned the reconstruction of the fortress to adapt it to modern defense needs, in particular to make the walls more resistant by gunfire. From the sixteenth century. until the eighteenth century. the country and its fortress became scenarios of Turkish invasions, was the beginning of the sudden decline of the village, which will last for many centuries, until the twentieth century. The Ottomans put fire to the entire village, killing and kidnapping almost all the inhabitants. In 1536 the famous Barbary corsair Khayr al-Din Barbarossa kidnapped Giovanni Dionigi Galeni, who became famous as an admiral and pirate by the name of Ali Paşa Uluc.

 

From the seventeenth century. until the early twentieth century; the village of Le Castella was sparsely inhabited, in fact in 1644 the town of Le Castella was abandoned by order of the royal court. For many centuries it remained a rural town devoted to 'agriculture, livestock, herding, fishing and a few other trades. For a few decades, the fort served as a refuge for the few who owned land in place, in the absence of any other defenses by Ottoman raids. It is known the report of the tour conducted by Abbot Saint-Non, which ascertained the state of abandonment of the fortress, in ruins and the conditions of life of the humble few who lived in the village. In the second half of the twentieth century. to this day, Le Castella has experienced an increase in population and an economic recovery in due measure from the main seaside tourism, and underwater cultural heritage.

Since 1991 is part of 'Marine Protected Area of Capo Rizzuto.
