The Great Britain VI - Days 1 & 2 with 34067 Tangmere, 45407 and 44871
After several changes to the motive power, and one change to the start point, the first leg of The Great Britain VI left Victoria, (not Paddington) on Saturday 20th April, behind 34067 Tangmere (not 5029, 70000 or 60019), bound for Par.
A rather leisurely schedule down the ex LSWR main line meant that we could begin at Richmond, with the crossing of the Thames, jump ahead of the Winchfield water stop to Worting Junction, then, while more water was taken at Salisbury, move on to Tisbury. Taking advantage of a pathing stop at Gillingham, and another at Yeovil Junction, we made it to Sutton Bingham for a shot across the reservoir. Another water stop at Chard Junction made it possible to reach the bridge near the summit of Honiton bank, and a final pathing stop at Honiton allowed for one more shot at Feniton.
At Exeter, Tangmere's work was done, and loco and support coach then ran to Bristol in readiness for their part in Day 2, and are seen at Stoke Canon.
From Exeter, the train was worked forward by Black 5s 45407 and 44871. We wanted to capture the pair leaving the yard at Exeter and then move on while they waited their allotted 19 minutes in the platform at St Davids, but as time passed with no sign of movement we abandoned that idea and went straight to the down platform at Exeter St Thomas.
The crossing of the Tamar should have been covered by both cameras, but the fifteen minute early arrival of the train caught out Alan, who was still looking for a suitable vantage point.
Day two began on the pitch-and-putt course at Newquay Zoo, one of the few places from which you can see the full length of the viaduct that spans the valley close to the end of the platform at Newquay station. Sadly, although you can see the length of the viaduct, you can't see the height of this most impressive structure.
Not having much experience of the Newquay branch, we had no idea what could be achieved, so we were quite surprised to find, on reaching White Cross, that we were ahead of the train. Piling out, we managed a bonus roadside shot.
Moving on to the station at Roche, we could hear the locos struggling up to the summit of the line, just around the corner, and then easing off and gathering pace before sweeping past the camera.
A rather timid coach driver, descending the gradient outside St Austell, held up all the traffic and we only just made it to the level crossing on the final approach to Par.
The half-hour stop at Par made it possible to get to Riverside and make a proper job of covering the crossing of the Tamar this time.
Another lengthy stop at Plymouth allowed us to seek out a suitable spot alongside the river Plym. At this point we have a confession to make. Somewhere between Saltash and here, the microphone on the B camera had been accidentally turned off and so, rather than waste the shot, the sound of the 5s crossing the river bridge has been borrowed from another clip. This has the advantage of losing the intrusive sound from the A38 that would have been on the original.
We managed to outrun the train to the site of Silverton station, before dashing to Yatton, passing the 5s as they took water in the loop at Tiverton Junction.
At Yatton, the presence of cameras caused quite a bit of interest, drawing several patrons from The Railway and sending one elderly gentleman, who had come to meet his wife off a local train, hurrying back to the car for his camera.
On arrival at Temple Meads, the 5s handed the train on to Tangmere for the last lap to Cardiff via Gloucester. We had planned to catch Tangmere on the sweeping curve at Rodford, where the line to Gloucester diverges from the line to London, but this was not possible, and so we ended up on the roadbridge at Yate.
From Yate, we were to have continued to either Chepstow or Severn Tunnel Junction, but on finding that we were expected to pay £6.20 to cross the Severn, and not knowing if that was each way, we declined and returned to our temporary base in Devon, from where this video was uploaded.
TheSolution Roses event
On 26/01/12 TheSolution held an event that brought the leaders of Tewkesbury's community together in an effort to work collectively towards a brighter future for the town. Charities were the focus of this meeting as there are many great local organisations that need our help. This is the first of many such meetings that will take place in the future.

Anne, Queen of Great Britain
Anne (6 February 1665 – 1 August 1714) became Queen of England, Scotland and Ireland on 8 March 1702. On 1 May 1707, under the Acts of Union, two of her realms, the kingdoms of England and Scotland, united as a single sovereign state, the Kingdom of Great Britain. She continued to reign as Queen of Great Britain and Ireland until her death.
Anne was born in the reign of her uncle Charles II, who had no legitimate children. Her father, James, was first in line to the throne. His Catholicism was unpopular in England and on Charles's instructions Anne was raised as a Protestant. Three years after he succeeded Charles, James was deposed in the Glorious Revolution of 1688. Anne's Protestant brother-in-law and cousin William III became joint monarch with his wife, Anne's elder sister Mary II. Although the sisters had been close, disagreements over Anne's finances, status and choice of acquaintances arose shortly after Mary's accession and they became estranged. William and Mary had no children. After Mary's death in 1694, William continued as sole monarch until he was succeeded by Anne upon his death in 1702.

Aerial view of Dorchester, Maiden Castle and Kingston Maurward agricultural college on 24 June 2011 from an altitude of approx 4000 feet.
We approach Dorchester from the north-east along the A35, turn over the Kingston Maurward college campus, then travel around to the south of the town, over Maiden Castle.
Note the light brown scar in the middle of Dorchester; this is the redevelopment of the old brewery site.
Lastly, we head north over the town to Charminster following the Dorchester-Sherborne C road.

Description
abadoned tuberculosis hospital in the uk
In 1914 the house was unoccupied and Lord Sherborne, after having been approached by Mary King, not only lent it for use as a Red Cross Hospital but also agreed to have the whole inside painted. It was fitted with electric light and the baths and sanitary accommodation was improved. Standish House Hospital opened as a British Red Cross hospital under the management of Mary King on 13 May 1915. There were 100 beds within the house and 8 fully trained nursing sisters. The rest of the staff was all local volunteers. Patients were wounded soldiers from all over the country. A total of 2,292 sick and wounded soldiers were treated at the hospital during the First World War.[5]
After the war living conditions were very poor which led to a rise in diseases such as tuberculosis. The Government and Local Authorities had a duty to try to improve people’s health and so it was proposed that Standish should be opened as a Tuberculosis Institution. [6] Gloucestershire County Council bought Standish Park in its entirety from Lord Sherborne. [2] The house was turned into a sanatorium to treat tuberculosis in 1922.[7]
Funds were raised for suitable equipment and refurbishing, the Red Cross contributing £10,000. [8] Standish House Sanatorium was opened on 6th July 1922. It had a total of 140 beds divided into men’s, women’s and children’s blocks. The wards were run to a strict timetable but there were also plenty of recreation activities including a jazz band, cinema, games, and concerts. Over the next 15 years, the accommodation was expanded and in 1939 a new men’s block was opened. During the Second World War expansion slowed but, despite this, in 1947, C block, with 65 female beds, 19 children's beds and a modern Physiotherapy Department was opened. [9]
In 1948 the hospital became part of the National Health Service and a new X-Ray Department was opened. As tuberculosis became less common the range of conditions treated at the hospital grew. It specialized in orthopaedics, rheumatology and respiratory care across the whole of Gloucestershire. [1] In this role, it undertook joint replacements, as well as caring for coal miners from the Forest of Dean with the most serious of respiratory problems.[3] In 1953 the name was changed to Standish House Chest Hospital.[10]
In 1956 the League of Friends for Standish Hospital was formed which organized fundraising and additional amenities for patients and visitors. The hospital continued to develop its service including Physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy.
In 1974 the NHS had a major reorganization. Standish came under the Gloucestershire Area Health Authority. A new theatre was opened and the X-Ray Dept modernized. During the 1980s more management changes were made and services began to be transferred to Gloucestershire Royal Hospital. Despite new facilities having been built, and protests made by local groups such as Save Our Standish, in 1992 formal proposals were made to close the hospital. [11]
Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Trust considered reducing the number of beds at the hospital, as part of a series of cost-cutting proposals, in October 2003.[12] Although the Minister for Health, John Hutton, considered several options for the future of the hospital in March 2004,[13] closure was ultimately confirmed and the last patients were ultimately moved to Gloucestershire Royal Hospital in December 2004.[1]EVERYONE WHO EXPLORES REMEMBER STAY SAFE DONT TAKE SILLY RISKS AND ENJOY HAVING FUN AND SEEING PLACES MANY CAN ONLY DREAM OF
