I’ve always thought of cruises as a particularly expensive way to holiday, but after chatting with a friend the other day who was booking a cruise for himself and his wife I’ve been turned round on the idea. He has found himself a fantastic last minute cruise, which will take them both around the Mediterranean, starting in Spain and visiting the Balearics, Greece and Turkey. I think it helps that he has the flexibility to just up and go whenever he wants. Those are the perks of working for yourself. But it did make me think that perhaps I might consider a cruise in the future.

Have you ever wanted to just live life like a king — even for just a few hours? That’s something that I decided I’d do before I got too old. So I decided to go out for dinner and that I’d schedule a pickup by a Niagara Falls Limo. I don’t mind driving around town, but I thought that if I really wanted to be a king for a day, I’d have to ride around town in style. I couldn’t have been happier with the service that this limo company provided. I felt so special and appreciated. I might actually do this again next year, it’s addictive when you’re a king!

Brighton Short Breaks welcomes Brighton and Hove certifying its claim as the most Right On in the United Kingdomthis week with the occurance that it is the first  a parliamentary election has considered an all-female list of nominees.

 

20 years after Mrs Thatcher broke governmental ground  by being appointed  the first ever Prime Minister the complaint that the vestibules of Westminster are still a masculine predominated club  ring just as forte as ever! So, Brighton and Hove’s absolute female  short list of Parliamentary campaigners generates some encouragement to a likely future switch of soil in the sex proportionality in the political power domain .

 

Being cited in The Argus , Fawcett Society chief executive Ceri Goddard said: “If all the candidates are women that is cause for celebration but also concern that it has taken until 2009, whereas all-male elections are still the norm.

 

“The voters if Brighton can be pleased that whom ever they elect they will be a step closer to closing the gender gap in parliament where currently less than 20% of our MP’s are women – less than Iraq, Afghanistan and Rwanda.”

 

‘Less than Iraq, Afghanistan and Rwanda……… ‘ – personally that particular assertion left me slightly confounded about the state of our governmental domain and interested as to the reasons for male mastery above and beyond the erstwhile precedency that men should have it completely their own way – and its a whole Pandoras box of discussion that is better left for a different time .

 

But my intent here now is as – as always – to fly the flag for Brighton and Hove and manifest how wise thinking and politically sensible our city  is, and having  a ratio of men to women in parliament  more representative of the population, is in my judgement, a step in the right direction!

One of the most scenic of Maine’s 60 lighthouses is Bass Harbor Head Lighthouse located in Southwest Harbor on Mt. Desert Island. Originally constructed in 1858, the 32-foot lighthouse sits atop a 24-foot reddish-pink bluff overlooking the Atlantic. Both amateur and professional photographers consider Bass Harbor Head to be one of the most photogenic Maine lighthouses.The original keeper’s house was a small 800-square foot two-story wooden building. Inside were five rooms including two bedrooms, a tiny kitchen, living room and dining area. There was no indoor plumbing until 1900 when additions were built that enlarged the kitchen, added an extra bedroom and a bathroom.The purpose of the light is to warn seagoing vessels of the Bass Harbor Bar at the eastern entrance and marks the southeast entrance to Blue Hill Bay. The original fifth-order Fresnel lens manufactured in France by Henry-Lepaute was replaced in 1901 by a fourth-order lens which remains in use to this day. In 1949, the light was converted to electric operation. These days, the light is fully automated.
