Steam Train Travelling Through Galmpton!

UK: Galmpton Sheep & Steam Train! (15.4.2025)

I also remember a “93” double-decker bus in Dartmouth. Why? well, in Sutton – where we live – the “93” TFL bus begins in Priory Road (travelling to Putney Bridge) – we used to live in Priory Road from 1998-2004. We now live one or two streets away – but still near this bus route. This bus travels via Wimbledon Common – near to where the Buddhapadipa Buddhist Temple is located. Believe it or not – there is a Buddhist Temple near Honiton in Devon (Upottery) – the Hartridge Buddhist Monastery. We have visited this place many years ago – and might well visit again sometime soon.

Inside the Castle!

Torbay: Berry Pomeroy Castle – Tudor Ruins! (2.4.2024)

During the 1500s, Elizabeth I was an absolute monarch (as was her father – King Henry VIII) – who preferred to live in and around the Nonsuch Park area – including Hampton Court Palace (which is no longer used by the royal family). However, there was once a “Nonsuch Palace” which does not exist today. After Elizabeth I died (1603 CE) – many of the castles she frequented were no long favoured by the royal family – leading to these buildings falling into neglect and ruin. This was the case with Nonsuch Palace which was so badly dilapidate that what was left of it had to be demolished in 1683 CE – for safety reasons – with the ruins being recycled into the constructon (or maintenance) of local buildings.

Old Telephone Box - Galmpton

Galmpton Village: A Boxing Day Walk! (26.12.2023)

Although we had booked today (December 27th, 2023) to visit Agatha Christie’s house (Greenway) nearby – we just received an email notification that due to the bad weather – the house is currently ‘Closed’! Although there is a storm blowing – many Agatha Christie enthusiasts have still made their way here – one or two from as far away as Japan! Still, we are not exactly Agatha Christie fans, but we are interested in history and cultural development. Yesterday, the wind and rain stopped for an hour or two and this allowed myself and Gee to walk the dogs through Galmpton Village. It seems to be a place where rich people retire and the envious walk through.

Qinghai Prohibits Illegal Crossing Uninhabited Areas for Exploration Following Fatalities! (23.8.2023)

Furthermore, the statement particularly underscores that without proper authorization or reporting to relevant authorities, no individual or organization shall organize tourist groups under the pretext of exploration, crossing, or scientific research to venture deep into natural conservation areas. In the event of getting stranded, the full cost of rescue operations will be borne entirely by the involved individuals and groups.

Travelers should carefully assess their routes, and pay attention to weather forecasts, geological hazards, and traffic conditions while also maintaining ample reserves of supplies and ensuring vehicle maintenance, which is essential to ensure the safety of the journey, said the statement.

Nepal: Aeroplane Disaster Indicates Regular ‘Maintenance’ Trumps ‘Karma’! (16.1.2023)

What Westerners refer to as ‘luck’ and local Buddhist and Hindhu Nepalese as ‘Karma’ (there are philosophical ‘differences’ which matter little in the context of this tragedy) is relied upon to replace the proper use of engineeering ‘science’ and correct and timely mechanical ‘maintenance’! Passanger-carrying aeroplanes drop out the sky in Nepal not because the Nepalese people are racially inferior (the preferred argument of the Bourgeois media and its Neo-Nazi lackeys) but because no one in Nepal, (that is not enough ‘qualified’ people) possess the engineering skills to ensure the continuation of the proper mechanical functioning of these Western-designed and Western bulit flying machines! This ‘capitalism of the skies’ is a Western-derived habit that has spread all over the world – but not necessarily with all the safety regulations that accompanies the best commercial companies the West has to offer! Capitalism (and its obsession with inverted religiosity) spreading into Nepal killed these people – and not the Nepalese people themselves! Everyone you can see in the video above is a victim of the spread of Western-derived capitalist forces – either directly or indirectly! I only hope that every grown man watching the above video possesses the ‘balls’ to have taken the place of the children that perished!
