The National Trust is a heritage and nature conservation charity and membership organisation in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
The Trust was founded in 1895 by Octavia Hill, Sir Robert Hunter and Hardwicke Rawnsley to "promote the permanent preservation for the benefit of the Nation of lands and tenements (including buildings) of beauty or historic interest". It has since been given statutory powers, starting with the National Trust Act 1907. Historically, the Trust acquired land by gift and sometimes by public subscription and appeal, but after World War II the loss of country houses resulted in many such properties being acquired either by gift from the former owners or through the National Land Fund.
One of the largest landowners in the United Kingdom, the Trust owns almost 250,000 hectares (620,000 acres; 2,500 km2; 970 sq mi) of land and 780 miles (1,260 km) of coast. Its properties include more than 500 historic houses, castles, archaeological and industrial monuments, gardens, parks, and nature reserves. Most properties are open to the public for a charge (members have free entry), while open spaces are free to all. The Trust had an annual income of nearly £724 million in 2023/24, largely from membership subscriptions, donations and legacies, direct property income, profits from its shops and restaurants, and investments. It also receives grants from a variety of organisations including other charities, government departments, local authorities, and the National Lottery Heritage Fund.

You are right …… Maybe I should have trusted and listened to Halo, and done as he said by asking Google …..Instead of relying on my trusty map and compass …..Because no matter how hard I look around……This does not look very much like a railway station to me either…… But hey …..Come on……let’s look on the bright side and take a boat ride instead…….Will the boat take us to Oxford street shopping and then on to the football match to watch the Spurs play football……..Ummmmmm…….I have to honest with you on that one, and say that is a no…….But once again let’s look on the bright side and think to ourselves that here we are in deep winter in the 2nd week of January ….And look…..We are standing in the brightest warm sunshine…..Which makes it ideal idea for the boat to drop us off at the pub that lays up the river, where we could all sit outside in this lovely weather and grab a bite to eat with a pint or two to wash is it down …..And then watch the Spurs and Crystal Palace on TV …….And just think of all that money you will have saved by missing your Oxford street shopping…… Is It’s a deal then……It is…..But you want me to promise to trust Halo advise next time and to start using Google…… and I could make a start by throwing the not so trusty compass in the river and the map in the rubbish bin….Okay ....That's a deal
Mumbai Port Trust (also known as the Bombay Port Trust) is a port which lies midway on the West coast of India, on the natural deep-water harbour of Mumbai (Bombay) in Maharashtra. The harbour spread over 400 square kilometres (150 sq mi) is protected by the mainland of Konkan to its east and north and by the island city of Mumbai to its west. The harbour opens to the south to the Arabian Sea.
The port is administered by the Mumbai Port Trust (MbPT, formerly the Bombay Port Trust (BbPT)), an autonomous corporation wholly owned by the Government of India. The port is primarily used for bulk cargo, while most container traffic is directed to Nhava Sheva port across the harbour.
Mumbai Harbour has been used by ships and boats for centuries. It was used by the Maratha Navy, as well as the British and Portuguese colonial navies. The first of the present-day docks of the Mumbai Port were built in the 1870s. Bombay Port Trust (BPT) was established as a corporation on 26 June 1873. BPT's founding chairman was Colonel J.A. Ballard.
Port development was undertaken by the civil engineering partnership Sir John Wolfe-Barry and Lt Col Arthur John Barry as Joint Consulting Engineers to the Bombay Port Trust at the end of the nineteenth century.
From its establishment, the port has been the gateway to India, and was a primary factor in the emergence of Mumbai as the commercial capital of India. The port and the corporation took their present names in the 1990s.
Over the decades, the port underwent tremendous expansion, with the addition of berths and cargo handling capacities. However, Mumbai's expanding growth and population pressure constrained the growth of the port by the 1970s. This led to the establishment of the Nhava Sheva port across Mumbai Harbour in Navi Mumbai on the Konkan mainland. Nhava Sheva began operations in 1989, and most container traffic now flows through Nhava Sheva.
Mumbai Port has three enclosed wet docks. Prince's Dock was commissioned in 1880. As of 2008, it has 8 berths with a minimum draft of 6.4 metres (21 ft). Victoria Dock, commissioned in 1891, had 14 berths as of 2008 with a minimum draft of 6.7 metres (22 ft). Indira Dock, commissioned in 1914, had 21 berths, with a minimum draft of 7.0 metres (23.0 ft). Prince's Dock and Victoria Dock are semi-tidal docks, with vessels docking and departing at high tide. Indira Dock has a lock, enabling vessels to enter or depart at any time.
The port has four jetties on Jawahar Dweep, an island in the harbour, for handling Crude and petroleum products. These jetties have a draft of 12.2 metres (40 ft). Liquid chemicals are handled from a jetty on Pirpau.
Ballard Pier Extension has a passenger terminal, including immigration clearance facilities for crews and passengers of cruise liners, but the building is far from impressive.
The port has a total of 63 anchorage points. A pilot is mandatory for all vessels of over 100 tonnes net weightage.
Trust est un groupe de hard rock et heavy metal français, originaire de Nanterre, dans les Hauts-de-Seine. Il est formé en 1977 et popularisé au début des années 1980. Trust est le seul groupe français de son style à avoir connu un vrai succès populaire, surtout dans les années 1979 à 1983 avec de nombreux passages sur les radios périphériques et même plusieurs invitations à la télévision dans des émissions grand public.
Trust a joué avec des groupes anglo-saxons : AC/DC, Iron Maiden ou Anthrax. Le groupe est toujours connu en France à travers son titre Antisocial qui passe encore à la radio, plus de trente ans après sa sortie. La force et l'originalité du groupe venait de la façon puissante dont le chanteur, Bernard Bonvoisin, exprimait des paroles largement inspirées par la politique et la critique sociale.
Trust is a French heavy metal band founded in 1977 and popular in Europe in the first half of the 1980s. The band was best known for guitarist Norbert "Nono" Krief's prowess, for Bernard "Bernie" Bonvoisin's voice reminiscent of AC/DC's Bon Scott and for his lyrics about social and political themes. Iron Maiden's drummers Nicko McBrain and Clive Burr were part of Trust line-up in the 1980s. The band disbanded in 1984 and reformed in the 2000s for live shows and new recordings.
Répression est le deuxième album studio du groupe de hard rock français Trust sorti en 1980. Une version anglaise est également sortie la même année sous le titre Repression.
