Westerdokseiland Amsterdam NL: atmosphere of downtown
The renovation of the Westerdokseiland started in the year 2000. This depended on location of the area: near the Old Town and the pleasant surroundings of the Princen, Bickers and Real Islands. The typical characteristics of downtown and islands, such as dense housing and various uses, now return to the Westerdokseiland which is now home to 2,000 people. The houseboats in the Westerdok are rearranged and are along new public piers. On the Westerdokseiland the intimate ambience of the Jordan and the western islands is translated to the current time. Characteristic are the semi-public courtyards, the 'cours'. Also in the design of public space the intimate atmosphere of the area is clearly noticeable. The urban character of the Westerdokseiland is enhanced by the many houseboats in the Westerdok. On the Westerdok Square worry restaurants, cafes and terraces for socializing. The master plan for the entire area of OD 205 Delft.
Westerkaap I and II are the two northernmost blocks on Westerdokseiland with 302 apartments and town houses with underground parking realized in 2009. The homes are around three courtyards or "cours" built. Some of these homes are for seniors and is associated with a care concept.
Architects: For Westerkaap Phase I: Coordinating architect DKV architects with AWG architects from Antwerp and Baneke van der Hoeven architects from Amsterdam. Furnishings by DS Landscape Architects.
For Westerkaap Phase II: Coordinating AWG architect architects from Antwerp with DKV architects from Rotterdam and Concrete Architectural Associates from Amsterdam.
VOC Cour is the middle block with apartments built around a large courtyard or "cour". Divided into six structural units are 366 apartments and nine single-family homes for both sale and rental built on a parking garage. In addition, 2,400 m2 of office space (including catering) and 850 m2 childcare. The construction of the VOC Cour was completed in 2009.
Architects: MVRDV with Jeroen Schipper Architecten, Bosch Architects and Art Zaaijer.
La Grande Cour is the southernmost of the construction project Westerdokseiland. Around three "cours" 252 houses on a garage were realized. On the ground floor space for offices and catering 1.640 m2 and 1.100 m2 incubators (Urban Resort).
Architects: Coordinating architect Meyer en Van Schooten Architects with Men 5 and the Architecten Cie.
this was a first try with acrylic paints when i was 16.
it was a self portrait trying to express the emotion of worry
Had a chance to walk around and found this plants thriving to live on this very old granite pavement where number of people are walking. Somehow i am reminded of this verse. - Matthew 6:25-34.
I don't want anyone to worry about me so here's what's going on. On monday I made a dentist appt for a filling that fell out. Tues morning I woke up with my face all swelled up like a pumpkin & in awful pain. Yesterday when I saw the dentist he said my wisdom teeth are infected and gave me a referal for an oral surgeon & antibiotics. So I have a consult with them apr 30. I have given birth 5 times and I have to say I have never been in such pain. Feels like somebody took a baseball bat to my head. So if you sent me a message and are waiting to hear from me, I am sorry and I will get back with you as soon as I am feeling up to it. In the meantime I am just going to sleep thru as much of this as I can, and read/watch TV the rest of the time and let the kids wait on me hand and foot.
This is truly miserable and it's absurd that anyone in this day and age has to go thru this. If you need dental work done, I highly encourage you to get it done as soon as you can and don't put it off like I did. It's my own fault for not getting these teeth out years ago.
If you have tooth pain, CLOVE OIL on the gums, and cold packs on your face helps as much as narcotics. Just don't get the clove oil on your lips because it is burny. I couldn't find an ice pack so I have been using a frozen duck to cool my face and I think I am going to name the guy & adopt him into the family.
Verse
"The worries of this life ... and the desires for other things ... choke the word, making it unfruitful." (Mark 4:19)
The well "consumes" the coin.
Worries and wishes can consume us.

There was a time, I used to look into my father's eyes
In a happy home, I was a king I had a golden throne
Those days are gone, now the memories are on the wall
I hear the sounds from the places where I was born
Up on the hill across the blue lake
That's where I had my first heartbreak
I still remember how it all changed
My father said
Don't you worry, don't you worry child
See heaven's got a plan for you
There was a time, I met a girl of a different kind
We ruled the world, thought I'll never lose her out of sight
We were so young, I think of her now and then
I still hear the songs, reminding me of a friend....
Don't you worry, don't you worry child
See heaven's got a plan for you
Dont Worry Child, SHM

Its the middle of the week. And so time for a lie in. Even if my body and brain have me awake at half five anyway.
It is to be the warmest day of the year. Tuesday wasn't just the warmest day of the year, in Anglesey, but the 25 degrees was the highest April temperatures since records began.
I'm sure it's nothing to worry about, and we should all keep drilling for oil so the executives can make more billions, who care about a planet, anyways?
The orchid season is now three to four weeks earlier than it was a decade or so back, meaning pollinators might not yet have hatched to do their pollinating jobs, meaning plants will not get pollinated, new generations of plants will fail, and those who eat plants, or whose food chain relies on plants might starve.
But plants.
It was mighty warm at Jelltex Towers, Jools went off to her fitness class at half seven, so I stayed here and drank coffee, had breakfast, then began chores. Like watering the plants, checking the ponds, filling the feeders.
And then going out for a walk.
Reading my old blogs, I see I used to walk most days, and most times up to Windy Ridge. And I hadn't been there for months.
So I put on my boots, grabbed my camera and set off.
Off over the fields to Fleet House, pausing to take shots of the track and the view to Kingsdown Leas, before turning down by the farm and up to the not-so-new bench just before the top of the down.
I sat there for half an hour, enjoying the peace, broken only by the calls of skylarks and buzzards.
Along Green Land beside the edge of the wood, and where there were about a dozen Brimstones, one of which settled long enough for me to get a shot. I also saw a Speckled wood, a Small tortoiseshell and a Peacock, though they didn't settle.
The new owners of Windy Ridge farm have a new dog. Very barky.
It barked as I walked along the lane, when I stopped to take shots, and carried on as I walked past the farm and to the top of the track leading back down to Collingwood.
I turn for home, seeing more Lesser celandines than I have seen before along Green Lane, now spreading further and further east.
When I got home, Jools was back, so we had a glass of squash and sat on the patio until the heat forced me inside.
Yes, heat.
It had gone beyond war, which as nice as it is, means that the only place to see out the day should be the chilled interior of a nice country pub somewhere, or one at the seaside.
We can't go far, or one of us has to stay home as there's a delivery of wine coming. My only concern it arrives before dinner time so I can test one of the bottles.
Lunch is that old standard, pork pie. Bought last week before breakfast when everything looks delicious and is swiped into the trolley.
We watch more Beatles. And its clear things are going downhill, especially after the trip to Indonesia and pissing of Imelda.
Penny Lane is still the greatest moment in popular music, an to hear it again with the band on the actual Penny Lane for the promotional film, is a joyous thing.
They even managed to squeeze in a sexual act into the lyric, and the BBC missed it.
For the afternoon there was a little churchcrawling, as I took my group to Blessed St. Mary of Walmer again, having arranged it to be open. Again. And calling the warden the day before to ensure he didn't forget.
I was even able to inform him, via Hasted, when the church's tower was taken down, as in 1800 it had already partially collapsed and contained but two bells.
The group loved the church; the Chancel arch, the Duke of Wellington link, but the glass is something left to be desired.
We were done by three, so I rushed home to pop the already boiled potatoes in the oven for dinner to go with the pie and steamed vegetables for dinner.
The evening contained no football on TV, just on the radio. So I laid on the bed, then in the bed as I followed Liverpool's match in Paris.
I woke up at ten to find they'd lost 2-0, and so it was time for more sleep.

What an amazing and little known gem! Hiding beneath the ruins of the Norman manor house, the church of the Blessed Mary of Walmer is a complete Norman structure, returned to its original shape after two campaigns of enlargement. As befits a military town the church, now used once a week on a Thursday, contains memorials to army and navy officers - the most important being the hatchment of The Duke of Wellington. He was Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports and a frequent worshipper in the church. When he died at Walmer Castle a hatchment was carried in front of the cortege to the station and it now hangs in the church. The high chancel arch is Norman, whilst above it are remnants of medieval painting and an eighteenth century cartouche. In the chancel is a lovely scrolly tablet to William Lisle, a bodyguard to Charles I. The font cover dates from 1664, no doubt marking a replacement after the Puritans destroyed the original. In the 19th century the church was enlarged and the interior altered to face south. After nearly a hundred years this extension was demolished taking the building back to its original form. The rather startling stained glass, in the manner of Hugh Easton (see also Crayford) is 20th century and depicts St Raphael and St Elizabeth of Hungary. More conventional windows of St Nicholas and Our Lady and Child help to address the balance. The huge churchyard contains one of the oldest yews in Kent - certificated at 1400 years old!

WALMER
LIES adjoining to Deal southward, being probably so called quasi vallum maris, that is, the wall, or fortification made aginst the sea. It was once part of the hundred of Cornilo, but was very early made a branch of the cinque ports, and a member to the port of Sandwich; nevertheless, king Henry VI. on some disputes arising concerning it, again annexed and confirmed it to that jurisdiction, in which it still continues.
THE VILLAGE of Walmer is situated on rising ground, about a mile from Deal southward, and about half a mile from the sea-shore, at the ending of the chalk cliffs, close to which is Walmer castle, built with the neighbouring ones of Deal and Sandown, all of the like sort, by king Henry VIII. in the year 1539, for the defence of the coast.
George Leith, esq. is the present captain of it, and Edward Pyott his lieutenant.
WALMER CASTLE stands beautifully pleasant, close to the shore, having an uninterrupted view of the Downs and the adjoining channel, as far as the coast of France, the naval commerce of the whole world passing before it. The apartments towards the sea have been modernized, and handsomely fitted up, and have been made use of for some time past by the constable of Dover castle and lord-warden, for his residence in these parts. The present constable and lord-warden, that great minister of state, THE RIGHT HON. WILLIAM PITT, whose birth within this county reflects additional honor to it, resides at it, whenever his time can be spared from his momentous care of the public welfare of the British empire.
Towards the village of Walmer is a flat, many feet. lower than the high water mark, which the beach thrown up along the shore has fenced from the sea, and which probably when Cæsar landed on this coast, might be all covered with water. Round Walmer church, which stands at the south end of the village, on a rise, is a deep single fosse. Here Dr. Packe supposes Cæsar fought his first battle in the sea, and set his men on shore. There are other visible marks of intrenchments at Hawkeshill-close, near the castle to the southward, and on the place called Dane Pits, on the old down, not far off from it. (fn. 1)
This parish is noted for the salubrity of its air, and the beautiful prospects over the Downs and the neighbouring channel, as well as the adjoining country, which is for the most part uninclosed corn fields. The soil in the low part of it, between Deal castle and Walmer-street, is underneath a deep rich loam; to the southward, on the hill, it is open down land. The vallies in it are fertile. There is not any woodland.
The high road from Deal to Dover passes through the village, which is called Walmer street, and is very neat and prettily built, having several genteel handsome houses in it, which are much resorted to in the summer season, for the benefit of sea-bathing, the healthiness of the air, and the conveniency of its situation in the neighbourhood of Deal and Dover.
Leland, in his Itinerary, vol. vii. p. 125, gives the following description of this place, as in his time, viz. king Henry VIII.'s reign:
" Walmer is about a mile from Dele shore and looke as from the farther syde of the mouth of Dovre the shore is low to Walmer so is the shore all cliffy and hy from Walmere to the very point of Dovar castell, and there the shore falleth flat and a litle beyound the towne of Dovar the shore clyvith to Folkestane. From Walmer to St. Margaretes ij and 2 miles to Dover."
There are at present about seventy houses in this parish, and 800 acres of land. There is no fair.
THE MANOR OF WALMER was antiently part of the possessions of the eminent family of Auberville, who held it by knight's service, of Hamo de Crevequer, as of the manor of Folkestone. At length, Sir William de Auberville, of Westenhanger, left an only daughter and heir Joane, who marrying Nicholas de Criol, brought him this estate as part of her inheritance. The Criols, or Keriels, bore for their arms, Argent, two chevrons, and a canton, gules; in imitation of their superior lords, the Clares, earls of Gloucester, who bore Or, three chevrons gules. (fn. 2) From him this manor devolved at length by succession to Sir Thomas Keriell, for so their name was at that time in general spelt, who was slain at the second battle of St. Alban's, in the 38th year of king Henry VI. in asserting the cause of the house of York. He left two daughters his coheirs, of whom Alice the youngest, married John Fogge, esq. of Repton, afterwards knighted; and on the division of their inheritance, this manor was allotted to him, and he by will devised it to his son Sir Thomas Fogge, sergeant-porter of Calais, both under king Henry VII. and VIII. whose daughter and coheir Anne entitled her second husband Henry Isham, esq. to the possession of it; but his son Edmund Isham leaving an only daughter and heir Mary, she carried it in marriage to Sir George Perkins, whose daughter Mary married Sir Richard Minshall, of Cheshire, afterwards created by king Charles I in his 18th year, Baron Minshull, of Minshull, in that county, and they together joined in the sale of it in the 2d year of that reign, to Mr. James Hugessen, of Dover, who died possessed of it in 1637, and in his descendants it continued down to WilliamWestern Hugessen, esq. of Provenders, who died in 1764, leaving three daughters his coheirs; the youngest of whom, Sarah, died unmarried, and under age, in 1777; upon which the two remaining daughters and coheirs became entitled to it, of whom Dorothy married Sir Joseph Banks, bart. and Mary married Sir Edward Knatchbull, bart. and they, about the year 1789. joined in the sale of it to George Leith, esq. of Deal, the present owner of it. A court baron is held for this manor. The mansion of the Criols is situated not far from the side of the church yard. The ruins shew it to have been a large venerable mansion, with towers all built of bolder flints and ashler stone, and as supposed by Nicholas de Criol, in Edward I. or II.'s reign. In the church yard several stone coffins were discovered a few years ago, supposed to have belonged to some of this family.
Charities.
A PERSON UNKNOWN gave to the poor of this parish, part of a house vested in the churchwardens and overseers, the produce to be laid out in the purchase of coals, for such as do not receive alms, now of the annual value of 1l. 3s.
WALMER is within the ECCLESIASTICAL JURISDICTION of the diocese of Canterbury, and deanry of Sandwich.
The church, which is dedicated to St. Mary, consists of one isle and a chancel; there is no steeple, only one side of the antient tower remains, but there are two small bells in it. There are doors on the north and south sides of the church, with circular arches, with zig-zag and nail headed mouldings; and the western face of the arch, between the body and the chancel is like wise circular, and full of similar ornaments. On a grave-stone, at the entrance of the chancel, is an inscription to the memory of Anne, wise of Christopher Boys, captain of Walmer castle, and daughter of Thomas Fog, esq. by whom she had ten children. She died 1680. Against the north wall is a monument for William I isle, one of the equerries of the body of king James and king Charles. Also of Edmund Lisle his brother, sewer of the chamber of queen Elizabeth, king James, and king Charles, having been twenty-one years captain of Walmer castle, lineally descended from the lords de Lisle and Rougemont. William and Edmund both died in 1637, leaving Nicholas their bro ther, possessor of their antient inheritance of Wilburgham Lisles, in Cambridgeshire; arms at the top, Lisle, a fefs, between two chevrons, sable, with quarterings. In the parish register is entered:— 1637. Mr. Wm. Lisle, gent. doctus senex an 73 visit ælebs studiis incumbens — 1637. Mr. Edmd Lisle, captain of the castle.
¶The church of Walmer was antiently part of the possessions of the family of Auberville, of Westenhanger; one of whom, Sir William de Auberville, senior, in king Richard I.'s reign, having founded West Langdon abbey, as has been more fully mentioned before, gave this church to it in pure and perpetual alms, which gift was afterwards confirmed by Simon de Albrincis his descendant. and in the 30th year of king Edward I. by Nicholas de Criol. (fn. 3) After which, this church continued with the abbey of Langdon, to which it was appropriated, till the dissolution of it in the 27th year of king Henry VIII when it was, among the rest of the possessions of the abbey, granted in the 29th year of that reign to the archbishop Cranmer, who, though he not long after exchanged the scite of the abbey and other possessions of it with the crown, yet he retained the advowson and parsonage of this church, among others, by a particular exception in the deed; since which it has continued part of the possessions of the see of Canterbury, the archbishop being both patron and proprietor of the appropriation of this church. Mr. John Cannon, jun. of Deal, is the present lessee of this parsonage. The church of Walmer has been long since esteemed as a perpetual curacy, and continues so at this time.
It is not valued in the king's books. In 1578 here were communicants eighty one. There are at present about three hundred and fifty inhabitants in this parish. In 1640, the stipend to the curate was eight pounds. Archbishop Juxon augmented the stipend 20l. per annum, anno 12 and 13 Charles II. since which it has been augmented by the governors of queen Anne's bounty. It is now of the yearly certified value of thirty two pounds.
