TravelPod Member ReviewsBarons Craig Hotel Dalbeattie
Despite being the most expensive stay on our tour, it proved to be the mostdisappointing, starting with the green stains in the bathtub, followed up by the waiter trying to charge us for an extra bottle of wine. Impressive location, hotel and views but that's where it stopped

Dumb fries sums it up ...
Day 12 (Friday) - Tobermory to Dalbeattie (outside Dumfries): Up early for the ferry ride across to Oban which was just wonderful, cruising past Duarte Castle on the eastern tip of the island and sailing boats catching the morning breeze. A fairly uneventful drive capped off with a fairly unimpressive stay at Baron's Craig Hotel (the internet …
St Bees to Ennerdale (the long way)
... well until Moor Row when I sent us on a long diversion into Cleator Moor rather than Cleator! That lead to a long and demoralizing march along the A5086 to regain the C2C Route at Millers walk. After a fortifying cup of tea at the bottom of Dent Hill we began our ascent along a very muddy track to the summit. Sky Larks soared and sang cheerfully as we went, lifting our spirits. Views from the top were spectacular, the Lakeland fells looking a ...
St Bees
Katrina and the 50 year old arrived at St Bees at 1pm after a 5 hour train journey from Lichfield. The weather has been fine most of the day but turned overcast and cool mid afternoon whilst we explored St Bees. Some rain is expected overnight and in the morning, but then a heat wave is forecast until Friday! This will coincide perfectly with our crossing of the Lake District. St Bees is a pretty seaside ...

Departing in 2 days. Had a successful trial pack today. I thought the case would be seriously overweight but it came in at 21kg. Phew. Katrina who has been miserable for a week with a respiratory infection is now taking antibiotics for sinusitis. She spent most of yesterday sleeping. Seems a little better tonight. Hopefully she will be fit by the 27th when we start ...

At the pub (beers were needed for the weary walkers), they rang the people where we were staying who soon arrived. We were driven to our next stop..Rowrah at the Stork Hotel to find our bags had been delivered to our room. After cleaning up, we headed downstairs for dinner before retiring exhausted around ...

Fred Meyer will no longer carry "pink slime" beef
|| Print |
|Must Reads
|Friday, March 23, 2012
Portland-based Fred Meyer joins the list of grocers that will no longer carry beef containing "pink slime."
After a reversal from its parent, The Kroger Co. of Cincinnati, the Portland-based grocer announced Thursday it would no longer sell ground beef containing the filler that's been under scrutiny since its existence became a hot topic on various social media sites over the past month.
"Finely textured beef," also known as pink slime, passes federal food standards but became less than appealing for many consumers once they learned how it was made. Manufacturers create the filler by heating and spinning trimmings from steaks and roasts to remove the fat. The remaining meat is then treated with ammonia gas and combined with fattier meat to create leaner hamburger.
Wal-Mart Stores Inc. also annnounced Thursday that it would begin stocking beef without the filler as soon as possible. Safeway, Albertsons' parent Supervalu Inc. and a number of other national grocers made similar announcements Wednesday, while Target Corp., Whole Foods and Costco Wholesale said they've never sold products with pink slime. Portland-based grocer New Seasons Market said it grinds its own beef and does not use finely textured beef.

Small-toothed palm civets are widely distributed throughout the Oriental region of Asia and the south eastern tip of the Palearctic geographic regions. Civets range from northeast India to southeast Asia. Current sightings have been confirmed in Myanmar, Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam, and Laos including but not limited to the islands of Sumatra, Borneo, and Java.
Biogeographic Regions: palearctic (Native ); oriental (Introduced , Native )
Range Description
This species was recorded from Kadan Kyun Island off the coast of Myanmar in the early part of the twentieth century (Meiri 2005), no surveys using methodology suitable for this species have been conducted in other areas in Myanmar, where it was historically recorded quite widely (Than Zaw et al. in press); a record of a released animal in the outskirts of Yangon (Su 2005) suggests populations are still extant in the country. Given the extent of remaining suitable habitat, it is likely that Myanmar supports large populations.
It was first recorded in Cambodia from Keo Seima Biodiversity Conservation Area (150 masl) in 2003, confirming previously inferred extension of the species range into this country. Duckworth (1997b) reports that this species is widespread in south and central Lao PDR; there has been no suitable survey carried out in the country north of approximately 19°N. In Thailand there are many records in protected areas (Duckworth and Nettelbeck in press). The current status of this species in China is unclear, as no proper spotlighting surveys have been conducted and nothing can be inferred on its status (W. Duckworth in litt. 2006).
There is a record of a skin collected from Darjeeling, India by Dr. Steward in 1856, although there seem to have been no recent confirmed records from this region. Pocock (1939) gave several records for India. The type locality of A. t. millsi is Mokokchung in the Naga hills (26°20′N, 94°32′E). This species has been reported by Suyanto (2003) from Gunung Halimun, West Java, and there are records from the 1930s from Gunung Gede National Park and Ujung Kulon National Park in Java (see Schreiber et al. 1989). However, it is unknown whether these populations are still extant (Meijaard pers. comm.). It is also presumed to occur still in Indonesian Borneo and Brunei. Current status in Bangladesh is unclear but suitable habitat remains in the northern and eastern hill tracts. Reliance on recent records to define its current distribution will produce an underestimate because the species is readily overlooked by conventional survey techniques (Duckworth and Nettelbeck in press).
Physical Description
Small-toothed Palm Civets are mid-sized when considering its family, with measurements of: head and body length 44 to 60 cm, tail length 48 to 66 cm, hind foot 7.4 to 8.0 cm, ears 2.8 to 4.2 cm, and weigh between 2 and 2.5 kg. Pelage is short, tawny to buff color and varies according to the surrounding environment. Due to their tropical habitat there has been no seasonal variation in pelage. Generally, the head and back is beige, brownish grey, and sometimes reddish brown; while the under pelage is a reddish brown. Their heads, ears, feet, and tails are usually a dusky brown to grayish black. It is not uncommon to see a white strip extending from their nose to their forehead, usually with three noticeable black or dark brown stripes or spots extending from their neck to the base of their tail and midway down their sides. Many times small-toothed palm civets are confused with Asian palm civets due to the variability in their pelage. Although small-toothed palm civets will have more linear stripes and distinct edges than Asian palm civets. The eye dimensions are noticeably different between the two and eyes are larger in small-toothed palm civets. Researchers debate over the division of the species into three different sub-species based on morphology: Arctogalidia trivirgata trileneata, Arctogalidia trivirgata leucotis, and Arctogalidia trivirgata trivirgata (Eaton et al 2010). There has not been much research on this topic and standardization between the sub-species is complicated due to phenotypic variation within each sub-species. Young seem to exhibit a more beige color pelage, smaller tails, and considerably smaller in size than adults. Little is known about the young in their natural habitat as they are mainly arboreal, nocturnal, and difficult to observe.

Small-toothed palm civets are primarily a solitary, nocturnal, and arboreal species found over a wide range of habitats. Sightings have occurred in low-lands, as well as dense primary and secondary tropical canopies of coniferous forests. They have also been seen in mixed coniferous forest up to 1,450 m above sea level. It is not uncommon to receive reports of sightings in areas of active logging and coconut plantations. They inhabit very remote areas of the forests, however have been seen as close as 3 km from established villages, but this is not common for small-toothed palm civets.
Range elevation: 1,450 (high) m.
Habitat Regions: temperate ; tropical ; terrestrial
Terrestrial Biomes: forest ; rainforest ; scrub forest
Other Habitat Features: riparian
Habitat and Ecology
In Cambodia, Lao PDR and Thailand, the small-toothed palm civet is found in evergreen and semi-evergreen forest, including degraded areas provided some contiguity of canopy remains; elevation range extends up to at least 1200 m (Duckworth et al. 1999; Duckworth and Nettelbeck in press). In the Sundaic part of its range, it inhabits evergreen rainforest and possibly others forest types (Payne et al. 1985; Duckworth 1995; Payne 1995; Wells et al. 2005; Holden 2006; Belden et al. in 2007). It was recorded from lowland, mature semi-evergreen forest surrounded by disturbed secondary growth in Viet Nam in 2003 (Borissenko et al. 2004). All Bornean civets (except Diplogale hosei) have been recorded in disturbed forest areas, though abundance declines in this habitat (Heydon and Bulloh 1996).
- Terrestrial
Trophic Strategy
While listed as a carnivore and known to prey on a wide range of small mammals, small-toothed palm civets are often seen eating an array of fruits. Due to the development and arrangement of their teeth it is assumed that fruit is the most important item in their diet. The rows of teeth for this species are unique to the carnivore order. The first and second upper molars are displaced laterally, which results in the last pair of the upper molars being the farthest apart. In addition, the smaller teeth are widely spread and demonstrate no shearing function. Small-toothed palm civets have an omnivorous diet, including insects, small mammals, birds, frogs, and lizards.
Animal Foods: birds; mammals; amphibians; reptiles; eggs; insects; terrestrial non-insect arthropods
Plant Foods: fruit
Primary Diet: carnivore (Eats terrestrial vertebrates, Insectivore ); herbivore (Frugivore ); omnivore
Since they are frugivores and one of the only arboreal carnivores in their ecosystem, small-toothed palm civets play a key role in seed dispersal. They also control prey populations.
Ecosystem Impact: disperses seeds; keystone species
According to Eaton et al., when reticulated pythons have been captured and harvested, they have found in their digestive tracts the remains of small-toothed palm civets. Since they are arboreal and not known to spend much time on the ground, small-toothed palm civets would be at low risk of predation.
Known Predators:
- humans (Homo sapiens)
- reticulated pythons (Python reticulatus)
Anti-predator Adaptations: aposematic
Life History and Behavior
There is little information currently available regarding communication and perception of small-toothed palm civets. However, females have perineal scent glands that are used for chemical signaling during mating and breeding periods.
Communication Channels: chemical
Other Communication Modes: pheromones
Perception Channels: visual ; tactile ; acoustic ; chemical
Life Expectancy
The lifespan of small-toothed palm civets is 10 to 12 years in the wild.
Average lifespan
Status: wild: 10 to 12 years.
Lifespan, longevity, and ageing
Small-toothed palm civets are nocturnal in nature so there are no observations of their mating system.
Small-toothed palm civets are aseasonal breeders, with some having two litters a year of two to three young. They have a gestation period of 45 days. Only females have a parineal scent gland located near the vulva, which is used to signal mates. Females are reported to have two pairs of mammae.
Breeding interval: Small-toothed palm civets breed twice a year.
Breeding season: Small-toothed palm civets mate aseasonally, year-round.
Average number of offspring: 2 to 3.
Average gestation period: 45 days.
Average weaning age: 61 days.
Average age at sexual or reproductive maturity (female): 17 months.
Average age at sexual or reproductive maturity (male): 17 months.
Key Reproductive Features: iteroparous ; year-round breeding ; gonochoric/gonochoristic/dioecious (sexes separate); sexual ; viviparous
Little is known about small-toothed palm civet parental care as they are nocturnal and arboreal making observation difficult.
Parental Investment: altricial ; female parental care ; pre-fertilization (Protecting: Female); pre-hatching/birth (Provisioning: Female); pre-weaning/fledging (Provisioning: Female)
Conservation Status
Small-toothed palm civets have not been currently identified as a species of concern by the IUCN Red List, US Federal List, or CITES. This is due in part to their relatively wide distribution and their occurrence in several protected areas. In addition, their nocturnal and arboreal nature put them at a lower risk to hunting threats in comparison to similar sized carnivores and ground living mammals. The greatest threat to small-toothed palm civets are habitat loss and degradation due to deforestation.
US Federal List: no special status
CITES: no special status
State of Michigan List: no special status

Year Assessed
The great paucity of camera-trap photographs reflects the rarity of the species coming to ground, as has been shown by its Neotropical ecological analogue, the Kinkajou (Schipper 2007). Hence, several well camera-trapped areas have failed to record the species (Seima Biodviersity Conservation Area, Cambodia, Walston and Duckworth 2003; Cat Tien, Viet Nam, Borissenko et al. 2004; Khao Yai NP, Thailand, Duckworth and Nettelbeck in press; Sarawak Planted Forests Concession, Borneo, Belden et al. 2007); yet when even quite modest levels of spot-lighting have taken place in these areas, the species has been found, sometimes even exceptionally commonly (e.g. ten animals in the first three hours at Sarawak Planted Forests Concession; Belden et al. 2007). It is a reasonable inference, therefore, that the species is not just locally common, but widely numerous.
Population Trend
Given that this species is arboreal and nocturnal in nature, it is one of the least affected by current high levels of hunting in Southeast Asia. In Cambodia, Lao PDR and Viet Nam, government gun confiscation programs enacted during the 1990s were thought to result in a decrease in hunting by locals; however, the removal of guns has resulted in an upsurge in snaring and other trapping practices. As a result, there has been increased trapping of small carnivores overall, particularly nocturnal species and those that reside on the ground. As the small-toothed palm civet is arboreal, snares and other ground-level traps do not pose a major threat in this region (Walston and Duckworth 2003). Active night hunting appears to be the only effective means of hunting this civet and, as this is labour-intensive, is rarely undertaken for arboreal mammals in most of this species' range (Walston and Duckworth 2003). In Lao PDR, Viet Nam and Myanmar, spotlight hunting does occur, but again the impact on this species is minimal as hunters focus on taking higher market value ungulates and concentrate for these almost exclusively at ground level (Walston and Duckworth 2003).
Conservation Actions
Given the patchiness of suitable surveys for this species, it is important to note that many large protected areas have been established in northern Southeast Asian evergreen and semi-evergreen forest and presumably support the species. Some protected areas where the species occurs are listed as follows. Extensive conservation measures with reasonably effective law enforcement in Cat Tien National Park in Viet Nam have ensured that there has been no logging for the past two decades and little or no hunting pressure (Borissenko et al. 2004). The small-toothed palm civet has been confirmed in a total of six protected areas in Viet Nam (Roberton in prep), and many protected areas in Lao PDR (Duckworth 1997b). This species was recorded from Tawau Hills National Park in Borneo in 2003-04 (Wells et al. 2005), from Temengor Forest Reserve in Malaysia by Ratnam et al. (1995), and from Keo Seima Biodiversity Conservation Area in Cambodia in 2003 (Walston and Duckworth, 2003).
Further studies would allow a better understanding of habitat requirements and ecology.
Relevance to Humans and Ecosystems
There are no known adverse effects of small-toothed palm civets on humans.
small-toothed palm civets become victims of the black market pet trade. When walking in the markets of Southeast Asia they are found for sale, which could be considered a benefit to the local economy. However, they are difficult for humans to trap or acquire since they are quite agile in their natural habitat. Rarely small-toothed palm civets will be taken for their meat in Chinese and Vietnamese markets. However, due to their small size they are often not worth the effort.
Positive Impacts: pet trade ; food
Small-toothed palm civet
The small-toothed palm civet (Arctogalidia trivirgata), also known as the three-striped palm civet, is a civet. It lives in dense forests of southeast Asia, from the Assam district of India to Indochina and the Malay Peninsula and on Sumatra, Bangka, Java, Borneo, and numerous small nearby islands of Indonesia.
A monotypic genus, Arctogalidia means 'bear-weasel' (from ancient Greek arkto- 'bear' + galidia 'little weasel'). The specific epithet trivirgata means 'three-striped' in Latin.
The small-toothed palm civet is mid-sized by the standards of its family, weighing 2.4 kg (5.3 lbs) and measuring 53 cm (21 in) long along the body, plus a tail of 58 cm (23 in). It has short fur that is generally a tawny or buff color while the head is a darker greyish tawny. Its muzzle is brown with a white streak that extends from the nose to the forehead. The back has three distinct black or dark brown stripes running along the length of the body. Only the females have the perineal scent gland, located near the vulva.
The diet is varied and omnivorous, and usually consists of insects, small mammals, nesting birds, fruits, frogs and lizards. Matching the habits of other palm civets, this species is solitary, arboreal and nocturnal. Its gestation period is 45 days, and the average litter size is 3, which are born in dens made in the trees. Young open their eyes at 11 days and are weaned at two months. It can have two litters a year and there is no set mating season. It can live for 11 years. It is threatened primarily by deforestation, as are many Southeast Asian forest animals.

Britt Hayes Biography
Jake Gyllenhaal Cried When His Parents Wouldn't Let Him Star in 'Mighty Ducks'Britt Hayes 5 days ago
Jake Gyllenhaal's big break came in 2001, when he appeared in Bubble Boy and Donnie Darko. The actor had a few small roles in his childhood (see: City Slickers), but according to Gyllenhaal, he might have hit the mainstream even sooner — if only his parents had allowed him to do so.
'Batman vs. Superman' Reveals New Look at the Dark Knight and the Man of SteelBritt Hayes 5 days ago
While it's not a new set of official stills from Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, the opposing duo appear on the cover of Empire magazine, giving us a fresh look at the heroes and their costumes from Zack Snyder's upcoming superhero showdown. As you might expect, Ben Affleck's Batman looks quite grumpy, while Henry Cavill's Superman looks positively optimistic and ready to save the world — or defend himself against it.
'Veep' Stars Timothy Simons and Matt Walsh Are Developing a Football Comedy MovieBritt Hayes 5 days ago
It's hard to choose just one standout actor on HBO's Veep, since every cast member is perfectly, funny-bone-breakingly hilarious. And now two of those incredibly funny people are stepping out to make what will likely be an incredibly funny movie together. Timothy Simons (Jonah, aka Jonad) and Matt Walsh are joining forces to develop a new comedy…about college football.

At the midseason mark, Hannibal has a moment of readjustment, switching gears almost effortlessly to transition into the future — three years down the line, and Will Graham is experiencing his Godfather moment. Just when he thought he was out, Jack Crawford pulls him back in to investigate the Tooth Fairy, a name our new killer despises, as "The Great Red Dragon" is more to his demented liking.
Rachel McAdams Confirms 'Doctor Strange' Casting TalksBritt Hayes 6 days ago
A few weeks ago, we heard that Rachel McAdams was in talks with Marvel for a leading role in Doctor Strange opposite Benedict Cumberbatch. Since then, all's been quiet on the Sorcerer Supreme front, with no official confirmation or other casting news. But today brings a small update, in the form of an interview with McAdams, who confirms that she is in talks with Marvel, though it's still a bit early.
'Everest' Featurette Reveals Intense Conditions Behind the ScenesBritt Hayes 6 days ago
With more and more big budget films relying heavily on CG, studios have been taking care to release behind-the-scenes featurettes and interviews promoting real locations and sets. A recent promo for Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation focused on Tom Cruise performing his own dangerous stunts, while details on Alejandro Gonzalez Iñárritu's The Revenant reveal a film that was shot as naturally and realistically (and excruciating for some) as possible. In a similar vein, a new promo for Everest highlights the intense conditions endured by the cast and crew on set.
'Fantastic Four' Featurettes Explore the Reality Behind the Fantastic ScienceBritt Hayes 6 days ago
One of the things that makes watching superhero films so fun is the incredible fiction involved. These films take scientific concepts beyond what's possible, but both comic books and their big screen counterparts tend to find inspiration in real science. A new set of Fantastic Four featurettes compares the fantastical science fiction of the film with science fact, with the help of renowned theoretical physicist Michio Kaku.
Michael B. Jordan Teams With 'Short Term 12' Director for 'Just Mercy'Britt Hayes 6 days ago
Michael B. Jordan is undeniably one of our most engaging rising stars, proving the sheer force of his talent with his role in Fruitvale Station (and lest we forget, his earlier role on Friday Night Lights). Jordan has two upcoming high profile roles with Fantastic Four and Creed, but his next project will take him back to a more intimate environment as he teams with the director of the acclaimed indie Short Term 12 for Just Mercy.
'X-Men: Apocalypse' Welcomes Patrick Stewart to the Set in New PhotoBritt Hayes 6 days ago
We previously learned that neither Patrick Stewart nor Ian McKellen will be appearing in X-Men: Apocalypse, as the new sequel focuses more on the younger cast. But Bryan Singer's latest photo from the set may be giving fans a glimmer of hope, with Stewart paying the production a little visit.

I always feel like these puzzles assume way too much about the moves that the other person will play for me to solve them. He could have easily moved his king diagnolly on check and escaped the bishop check-mate that came next turn.

The Pitzer Center, which is the new Music Recital Hall, still under construction on the UC Davis campus. I wanted to sketch from this angle, on the corner of Hutchison and Cushing; you may remember that I recently sketched the initial stages of construction. To be continued…
Category Archives: sketchbloggery
wunders never cease
Last month I decided to get out one evening to downtown Davis and sketch. I haven't sketched in the G St Wunderbar for a few years so I wanted to give it another go. It wasn't very busy (because it was early), and I sipped a beer at the back of the bar and ran down the black Pitt pen I'd bought in Aix (I don't use them very often, the nibs wear down too much after like one or two drawings), but I wanted to do some crosshatching, and play with sketching light in dark interiors. I'd thought about sketching the room at the other side of the bar, full of pool tables, but there's never a good vantage point for an urban bar sketcher, so I stuck to the main bar which had plenty of table space. "G St Wunderbar"… I first sketched this view when it was the plain old G St Pub. There it is on the right, a sketch from six years ago; I even sat in the same seat.
As I drew, it got later (funny how that happens) and more people started coming in. The music started getting louder and more dancier, and the people younger (funny how that happens), and so rather than stretch this to a panorama, I called it an evening and went home for a cup of tea. Another one for the 'then-and-now' section of the bar sketch series.
fast food lunch
France was fun, but you have to come home. I do actually have a few more sketches from London but they were kind of shoehorned in to the end of the trip, I'll post those soon. So aftre all those lovely picturesque canals and timber-framed buildings, you get the interior of the UC Davis Silo, where I often eat lunch. this was sketched while waiting for (and subsequently eating) my Carl's Jr. It was typically tasty, but incredibly greasy. Outside the mercury was rising fast to those unbearable Davis Summer levels. Welcome back to America! When's my next trip to France?
all these places have their moments
And after all those Strasbourg sketches, here is the map. Took me a while to draw, then put together, and there are like no street names, you just kind of have to know. If you click on it you can see it in larger detail. I hope you've enjoyed them. I've certainly gotten the 'Must-Sketch-Strasbourg-Now!" thing out of my system now, but I cannot wait to go back someday.
I just blogged a summary-style post on the main Urban Sketchers website: http://www.urbansketchers.org/2015/07/rencontre-strasbourg.html. I say 'summary', I do go into great detail about the 842 'Oaths of Strasbourg' and their significance to the written French and German languages, and Europe as a whole. You know, briefly.
And finally, because this has basically been one long trip down several memory lanes, here are a couple more I wanted to share. First, this is my bus pass student card from my trip to Strasbourg in 1995. Good sensible looking young chap.
Secondly, this is me and my oldest friend Terry cycling past the cathedral on our trip there in 1997, aged 21. Mischievous faces!
And finally in 2015, the same hairstyle, a bit more portly perhaps. A la prochaine fois, Strasbourg…
toujours strasbourg
Here is the final post with my sketches from Strasbourg, though there will be one epilogue with a map. This might end up being quite a long post, so if you like long posts with a few sketches and a lot of talk about things from previous trips that I can barely really remember properly, then this is for you. Or if you prefer just looking at the pictures, you can do that by scrolling past the text, looking at the sketch without all of the barely related context, and you get the same effect. I do like to offer an insight into what might have been going through my mind when I sketch though, which is basically the side of the drawing that I see when I look at it, but you as the non-Pete can't see. To be sure, you have the undoubted advantage of seeing a sketch just for what it is, while if I post a sketch of, for example, a bike shop in Davis, I can say that it reminds me of a podcast about the Peasant's Revolt that I was listening to at the time, or the music that was playing in the bar down the street, or the smell of the food someone was eating as they walked past, or it reminded me of the time when my bike broke down and I had it fixed, or the time when and so on and so on.
Take the sketch above, which is of a winstub/bierstub (it's what they call cute little places where you can drink beer or wine in Alsace), "Au Vieux Strasbourg". This is just down the street from the Cathedral on what is very much one of the main tourist runs. I stood against a wall and sketched as all nationalities walked by. To my right was a man selling little paper puppets in the street. These puppets would dance, all by themselves, making people (mostly kids) laugh and give money to buy one. At one point, the vendor sat at a table and had a drink at Au Vieux Strasbourg, and another man came long, and tried his best to figure out how the puppet was dancing. He looked at me, a glint of excitement in his eye and said "it's on a line! I can see it, it's on a line!" Obviously this was in French. "No," I replied, "it's magic. See?" "No, no, no," he said, "it's on a line. It's hard to see, but it's there." "It's hard to see because it's magic," I insisted. I don't know how I became the spokesperson for dancing paper puppets but if there's a cause I'm willing to stand up for, then well. He scratched his head as if he had made some revolutionary discovery but still didn't quite believe it. 'Sacre bleu' I thought, and just carried on drawing, while the puppet master, still sitting with his cold drink, just shrugged. I actually couldn't see the line, so it might have been magic. Further down the street, two musicians who had been playing an accordion and, I don't know, something else, were joined by a middle aged American who decided it would be brilliant if he whistled loudly and in great tune along to their music. It reminded me of the guy Walter from the Muppets movie a few years ago. More puppets. When I was done, I had a cold beer at Au Vieux Strasbourg, and watched the world go by, and the little puppets kept on dancing.
This is the interior of "Les Aviateurs", an American-themed bar I had heard of years ago but I don't think I ever visited. There are model airplanes on the ceiling. As I was walking back to my hotel from the Cafe Atlantico on the Sunday evening, thinking about dinner, I happened across it. So after dinner I made a point of coming here to do a sketch. I was pretty exhausted, so I just had one drink and sketched furiously until my purple pen expired. There was only one other person in there for the most part, other than the barman, who chatted to me in English because, as he said, one needs to practice a foreign language otherwise you really do lose it, it"s not like riding a bike. Amen to that my friend, that's exactly how I felt with my French on that trip. This bar is cool, and has been here since 1984, so I am glad I was able to find it and sketch it (here is their website). The music was all British indie music from the mid 1990s which was very appropriate.
There are a lot of municipal flags of towns from all over Alsace hung above the streets of Strasbourg. At least that is what I presume they are, and I think it's a fairly good guess.I like that green one that looks a bit like a pair of y-fronts. This was on the rue des Orfevres, also known as Goldschmittgass, and this Foies Gras vendor that I stood next to had a golden goose as its shop sign. Strasbourg however loves its storks, they are the symbol of Alsace and the mascot of tourist shops everywhere in the city. I never sketched those.
The Place de l'Homme de Fer (above) is the central downtown hub for the Strasbourg tram. It literally translates as Iron Man Place, and the large circular structure above the tram station reminds me a bit of an arc reactor. Twenty years ago when I first saw it, I had no idea what an arc reactor was (and barely remembered anything about Iron Man) so I never made that connection then. This was however, with the exception of the cathedral, the thing I was most impressed with about Strasbourg. Coming from London which at the time had the very old rolling stock of London Underground trains (the old grimy greying trains with the ghostly front face and the partially wooden interior, not the shinier more colourful ones you get now, with their LED screens and automated "the next station with this train is Colindale" announcements), the Strasbourg trams and their futuristic downtown station were a glimpse into the space age. This is what life could be like. I enjoyed riding the tram so much, arriving at 'Langstross' and other exciting locations. I'm a bit less easy to impress with futuristic technology now, in this age of smartphones and holograms and teleporters, but on my last day I did take a ride on the tram again just for old time's sake. I went down to Neuhof, which was where, in 1995, I had been on that exchange trip to the Lycee Jean Monnet. I walked about the neighbourhood for a little while, remembering all the old fun of that trip, all the people that I met. It hadn't changed very much, though to be honest I could not remember enough to say what would have been different. There was a lot of that in Strasbourg, turning a corner and another distant memory popping up, much in the same way that you remember last night's forgotten dream the moment you hit the pillow, and then it's gone again. I passed by the street where my old friend Roland used to live, who I last saw when we watched the 1998 World Cup semi-final on TV, France beating Croatia. There were lots of celebrating fans on the streets that night.
I was hungry, so I didn't sketch around Neuhof, and just jumped back onto a tram and headed to Les Halles for a Quick and some more shopping (or rather, leche-vitrine, window shopping – my backpack was too small to buy all the cool things I wanted to buy, such as big new Ninjago and Marvel Lego sets at the toystore which even now are not yet available in the US, much to my son's annoyance).
And then it was time to go home. my flight back to London was late on a Monday evening (and very cheap too, about $15, plus it took just a few minutes to get to the airport from Strasbourg train station). The Monday was my day of exploration, so I spent time in bookshops such as Librairie Kleber (I love the smell and feel of French bookstores, even if the spines are all upside down), and of course the big store FNAC. The FNAC in Strasbourg was the first ever FNAC I had been to and it hasn't changed much. I spent ages in their BD section – that's Bande Dessinee, or comic books. French (and Belgian) BD is amazing, especially the artwork, and often comes in large hardbound volumes. There were a good number I would probably have bought, had I not brought such a small backpack with me (Ryanair carry-on friendly). I did buy one small-ish new piece of Ninjago Lego for my son though, so clawed back a few Daddy Points for all the other Lego and Playmobil I didn't get (I did buy him some French 'Pokemon' cards in Monoprix though, his friend apparently had some German ones from his dad and he wanted to go one better). I bought biscuits in nice little Alsace tins, had a take-out curry dinner which I ate on a bench on the Rue du 22 Novembre, before finishing off with one last sketch of the large Place Kleber, Strasbourg's big central plaza. The cathedral poked above the rooftops, looking towards Rue des Grandes Arcades. The Marks and Spencer that used to be here is gone, but the McDonald's is still here. Why mention the McDonald's? Back in 1997 they gave me a Big Mac instead of a Chicken Sandwich. I didn't realize until I was already on the coach back to London, so I couldn't change it (me not being an eater of the hamburgers). My friend Terry ate it instead, and we've basically joked about this ever since. We agreed that if ever I went back there, I would go to that McDonald's, slowly walk up to the counter like a bounty hunter in an Old West saloon and say, "1997, September. You gave me a Big Mac. I asked for a McChicken sandwich. That was one long, hungry bus journey. I'm here to claim my debt." I didn't, but it would have made a brilliant BD.
a little petite
More sketches from Petite France, the old picturesque part of Strasbourg, famous for being where they put diseased soldiers centuries ago. The scene above is one of the most beautiful views in the city, where one of the canals of the river Ill twists past the narrow medieval lanes surrounding the Place Benjamin Zix ("Zixplätzel" in Alsacien). Benjamin Zix was a painter and sculptor in the Napoleonic era, born here (well, on rue des Moulins) in 1772. The building in the middle is the Maison des Tanneurs, dating from 1572, which is now a restaurant. I sat here by the narrow lock for a couple of hours, as tourists walked by, and other tourists in groups whirred by on those Segway things. I don't know how you can go around Petite France on those Segways (which remind me of the STAP flying platforms ridden by battle droids in the Phantom Menace while attacking Gungans on Naboo), but a lot of people did manage it.
Below is the rue des Dentelles (Spitzegass), which I sketched on the first day. There is a really interesting shop there called 'Un Noel en Alsace', which sells Christmas ornaments, mostly Alsatian. The most recent visit to Strasbourg I had made was in December 2004 with my wife, when we came to visit the Christmas market, or "Christkindelsmärik". Strasbourg, if you don't know, is the home of the traditional Christmas market. It is the oldest one in Europe, dating back to 1570, and is a lovely experience (albeit rather crowded). Strasbourg calls itself the 'Capital of Christmas'. It seemed to cover most of the centre-ville, and there was mulled wine (or maybe gluhwein, both of which I'm not keen on) being passed around. I do love Christmas time though, and Alsace does it pretty well.
On the final day in Strasbourg I decided I would do more exploring than sketching (I spent a lot of time in bookshops), but I just had to go back and sketch more Petite France. I wasn't done with Petite France yet. There was one scene which again is picturesque, tourist-photogenic, detail-heavy timber-framedness. The view from the Pont St. Martin towards the back end of the rue des Moulins (below). I spent an hour and a half sketching all the ink, and added most of the colour later. Below me, the water was gushing down from the locks. Behind me, the sound of children playing at a nearby school. Around me, tourists from all over the world lining up to take pictures of each other. I did consider making this a two-page panorama (and even plotted out the left hand page) but knew I wouldn't have the time to draw it. Still, I'm well happy I took the time to come and draw this.
Still more to come!
it is like a finger, pointing away to the moon
It might be my favourite building in the world. And this year, 2015, La Cathedrale de Notre Dame de Strasbourg is 1000 years old.
The day I got back to London last month, I was looking for some drawing pins at my mum's house when I happened upon an old badge that was mixed in with them. It was a small metal badge of Strasbourg Cathedral, which I must have bought on my first trip there, and has been sitting in a drawer at my mum's for years and years. What a coincidence, as I was shortly going to go back there. Strasbourg might have a European parliament building, and lots of pretty timber-framed buildings, but it is a city dominated by its massive cathedral. It sits in the centre of the Grand-Ile with its single solitary spire pointing high into the heavens. It can be seen for miles around. Locals told me that if ever I were lost, I should just look up and find the cathedral. Of course that only really helped if I were going toward the cathedral, so on this trip I booked a hotel right next to the thing (the Hotel Cathedrale, I recommend it). It was the scene above, the view down the tourist-trail of Rue Merciere, that I longed to sketch. I was stood almost in Place Gutenberg, where stands the statue of Johannes Gutenberg, who invented the printing press right here in Strasbourg. I stood there mid-afternoon, and because my hotel was just around the corner I took a break halfway through, and went back to do the rest. I had promised myself that I would sketch the cathedral at least three times, from three different angles, and so I did. I love this building.
In 1997 I came to Strasbourg with my oldest friend Terry. We came on an overnight Eurolines coach (remember taking those, in the days before budget airlines? Yeah those days are thankfully gone). I remember that it was the day after Princess Diana died (it was funny, French people kept asking us how we were doing, all concerned like, and we were both like, um, we're fine, thanks, not realizing all the national weeping nonsense going on back in England). As we approached Strasbourg, I could see the huge spire in the yellow dawn mist towering over the city, and it was an image that stuck with me, like an illustration from a fantasy novel. Its shape is so distinct. It looks like it is missing a spire, and in fact it is – the second steeple was supposed to be built, but was never constructed. I was told many stories about this cathedral, how for several centuries it was the tallest building in the world, how during the French Revolution the cathedral was covered up with a giant cap to save it from those revolutionaries who wished to tear it down. In the sketch above, you can see how the rear is also covered over, but this is just renovation, not revolution. I had a nice time sketching this one. Several of the Belgian sketching group were there too; Gerard Michel (the cathedral expert, my inspiration) was gathering a crowd of onlookers. As I sketched, a group of young schoolchildren were gathered in the plaza (which was not as nice and open as this the last time I was here), and several times they sang La Marseillaise, which echoed off the grand building beautifully. As well it should – for as much as Strasbourg has been swapped between the French and German realms, that national anthem of France was actually composed not in Marseille, not in Paris, but right here in Strasbourg.
The sketch above is the pre-breakfast early-morning drawing. My hotel being where it was, I just had to roll out of bed, grab the large sketchbook, and stand out in the Place de la Cathedrale before all the tourist shops opened. I said 'bonjour' to a few people holding machine guns, as you do. The cathedral is being well guarded by soldiers, walking about the building at all hours. It's not a scene that I'm used to, but I'm not unfamiliar with in France (I remember years ago walking past a large cadre of soldiers on the Paris Metro, their fingers on the triggers of their automatic weapons), and it's a reminder of the terrorist dangers that France has had to deal with this year. I stood next to the 15th century Maison Kammerzell, which I drew in the foreground in black ink, and drew the cathedral in brown-black ink. This is a famous shot. I started this at about 7:30am, but by 9:00am I was getting hungry so I stopped there, and went for a pain au chocolat at a boulangerie around the corner. It was such a delicious pain au chocolat that five minutes later I was back there asking for another. The woman in the bakery gave me such a dirty look when I came back and for a second one, as if to say "why didn't you just buy two the first time?". At least I got that much. On two other occasions that day (in FNAC and in Librairie Kleber), the shop assistant serving me barely acknowledged my existence other than holding out a hand for my money, looking away in another direction. But then I also had many occasions where I was helped by super friendly (and above all patient) people in shops and cafes.
And so, the Cathedral celebrates its millennium this year. I didn't realize this before I came to Strasbourg, so it was very good timing. Later this year they are having lots of celebrations and events. The picture below, taken from a display outside the cathedral, shows the history of its construction. As with most massive building projects in the middle ages, this took several centuries to complete. It stands at 142 metres tall (that's 466 feet). It doesn't sound like much when you put it like that. The first stone was laid by Bishop Werner von Habsburg in 1015. One of the most prominent architects involved was Erwin von Steinbach, who died in 1318, and the cathedral is one of the best examples of high Gothic architecture.

Future opens up for always-happy Olivia
5 Year-old Angelman sufferer in great spiritsTALIA SHADWELL
Relevant offers
A little "angel" from Palmerston North cannot yet speak a word but is bursting to begin school.
Today her family will mark the first international day held for people living with the rare neuro-genetic disorder, Angelman syndrome.
When Olivia Bold was 6 months old, her parents began to wonder whether something was not right.
"It was really a constant battle, going back to the doctor saying our baby isn't crawling or babbling and everyone would say, 'It will happen', 'she'll catch up'," mum Kerryn O'Brien said.
At the age of 3, Olivia was diagnosed with an ultra-rare type of Angelman syndrome, thought to affect one in 60,000 children.
The syndrome is characterised by severe intellectual disability, speech and movement impediments, and seizures. It can be genetic, but testing of family members showed that in Olivia's case, it was random.
"She doesn't have any words, just 'mama', 'dada' and 'baba'. No-one can tell us how many more words she will have," Ms O'Brien said. "She will never have a proper conversation with us. She'll never say, 'I love you Mum', or anything like that."
There are three Angelman children known to be living in Palmerston North, and one in Wellington.
The English paediatrician who discovered it, Harry Angelman, coined the term "happy puppet syndrome" to describe his patients' happy and expressive demeanours.
The label is now widely rejected in favour of the more affectionate term, "angels".
Now 5, Olivia loves the Wiggles, dancing and swimming, and she has been learning sign language with her first day at school only weeks away.
The rosy-cheeked little girl's face lights up with glee as she demonstrates some of her favourite signed words, including "banana", "cat" and "dog".
The bright side of caring for a daughter with Angelman syndrome is her effervescent nature, which Ms O'Brien calls "infectious". "She is constantly in a good mood and her tantrums last all of about three seconds.
"A bonus is she's so huggy and kissy. She loves people and is really in tune with their emotions. It's very interesting - if her friend is upset, she is upset."
But it is likely that Olivia will always struggle. Her lack of fear of heights and a love for water had landed the family in a few sticky situations, Ms O'Brien said. "Every house we have ever lived in has been flooded."
United States researchers have begun recruiting participants for clinical trials for a drug that could potentially treat the syndrome.
Angelman children usually enjoy a normal lifespan and Olivia's family hopes that she may even find work or hobbies later in life. However looking after Olivia would be a "life-long job", Ms O'Brien said.
The family is building a home suitable for Olivia, which will include a special space for her older sister, Brianna, 8, to have to herself.
Olivia is due to start at St James' Catholic Primary School soon where she will have a teacher aide.
The family has been thrilled at the support of the school, which has built a bathroom specially for Olivia, and is holding a fundraising day for her.

Cambridge shrug off early injury crisis
Relevant offers
School Sport
Cambridge High School managed to pull off a win in their first game of the girls' 1st XI soccer season despite more than a third of their team sitting out the match with injury.
After the grading games for the Waikato secondary schools soccer competition, Cambridge had clinched a spot in the first division – but six of their 16-strong squad had been forced on to the sideline.
Junior players were called up to the premier girls' team and helped clinch a 5-1 win in the side's season opener against Fairfield College.
Hamilton Girls' High quickly took control of their game against Waikato Diocesan School for Girls' 1st XI, with HGHS striker Rachel Porteous scoring the opening goal within five minutes of the whistle.
A clear shot from Jess Minhinnick extended the lead before, after a well contested half, Porteous found the net for a second time. Diocesan midfielder Izzy Coombes and a tight defensive lineup worked tirelessly to rebuff the HGHS advances, but the HGHS backline and good footwork from Emma Megchelse kept their team ahead.
By the end of the second half two more goals by Roberta Wigelsworth, and one from Kaitlin Bates just before the fulltime whistle, had given Hamilton Girls' a 6-0 win.
The St Peter's School 1st XI had an 8-0 victory over a gritty Forest View team.
The St Peter's squad had difficulty early on, but with Bethanee Witt breaking through with two goals before halftime the team at last found their rhythm.
The second half saw St Peter's come out with a fierce energy – the side grabbing six more goals and a comfortable win, with little challenge from their opponents.
Hillcrest High School took on Sacred Heart Girls' College and won 6-1 after scoring from the outset.
The Hillcrest team made quick work of their young and inexperienced opponents, ending the first half three goals up.
To their credit, the Sacred Heart side improved in the second stretch and Hillcrest briefly found themselves in an even match.
However, Sacred Heart failed to follow through on their opportunities to score and Hillcrest came away with the convincing win.

We have two small children and having snacks that they are familiar with is wonderful and cheaper than paying Disney prices. Always pleased with this site.
This was my first time using Garden Grocer and I will definitely use it again for my next trip. It was very convenient. Everything arrived and was exactly what I expected!
We used the service on our trip to Disney world. What a convenience!
