Visiting Windsor, England, When Her Majesty the Queen is in Residence the Royal Standard is Raised by Ann Coveney

The majestic stag stands watching over his harem of females looking out for their safety. The silence is shattered with the sound of horse’s hooves crashing through the trees. The deer are startled and run. The Royal Hunt is afoot with the hunt master William the Conqueror at its head. The time is the eleventh century and the place is Windlesora – known today as Windsor.

Since the Norman Kings built their defences here it has been the home of Kings and Queens of England. For some, including Charles1, HenryV111 and Jane Seymour, it is their final resting place.
Windsor Castle is the oldest castle residence still in use today. When Her Majesty the Queen is in residence the Royal Standard is raised. When she is out of town the Union Jack is hoisted.

Parts of the castle are open to the public including:-

Queen Mary’s Dolls House
This remarkable labour of love was made for Queen Mary in 1924. Everything in the house works – even the plumbing. Many famous people contributed to the design and articles within. The library contains original leather-bound books. The cars in the garage can run 20,000 miles to the gallon. You wonder if a child ever played with this masterpiece!

Eton College
About a mile north from Windsor Castle is the famous Eton College founded by HenryV1 in1440. Originally built to educate poor students it is one of the most exclusive schools in the world. Lists of past and present pupils read like a who’s who of people that have shaped and will continue to shape the world we live in.

Guildhall
Sir Thomas Fitz originally designed the building but died before its completion. Famous architect Sir Christopher Wren continued his work and completed it in 1689. From here you can watch the changing of the guards passing by complete with red tunics and bearskins. Inside you can view a collection of royal portraits dating back to Elizabeth 1. and a series of dioramas depicting historical events and places.
Interestingly, the columns, which seem to be supporting the roof of this building, actually carry no weight at all. More recently pictures of the Guildhall were beamed around the world, as this was the venue for the civil wedding of Prince Charles and Camilla Parker-Bowles.

The Cavalry Museum
Anyone with an interest in all things military will be delighted with this collection. Exhibits date from the seventeenth century to the present day including armour weaponry and battle models.

Windsor Great Park
‘The Long Walk’, ‘Savill Gardens’ and ‘Virginia Water’ are highlights of this huge park covering 4800 acres. The Long Walk covers a distance of 3 miles from the castle to the statue of George 111 on horseback. Savill Gardens offers you a spectacular array of plants and flowers all year round. You can stop and buy your favourite plant or have a bite to eat in the restaurant. Towards the south is Virginia Water – a large lake surrounded by beautiful gardens and sprawling lawns. Look out for some curiosities including a 100 foot totem pole.

A visit to Royal Windsor will take you on a journey back through one thousand years of English history and tradition. This is a place that continues to inspire and excite the imagination. If visiting Royal Windsor has left you with a thirst to know more then a trip of six miles will take you to Runnymede where the Magna Carta was signed laying down the foundations of our present day democracies.

Windsor is also the headquarters of Morgan Crucible http://www.morgancrucible.com , probably the most successful engineering company in the world. Their Technical Ceramics and Carbon divisions provide a wide range of materials, products and services to customers from around the world.

Ann Coveney is a freelance writer and part time school teacher. She can be hired to write articles on a wide range of topics. The web site she uses the most for low cost travel and hotel booking is AskVicki.co.uk

Excerpt: Lenworth George “Lenny” Henry, CBE (born 29 August 1958) is an English actor, writer, comedian and occasional television presenter. Henry, the son of Jamaican immigrants, was born at Burton Road Hospital in Dudley in 1958. He was a pupil at St John’s Primary School and later The Blue Coat School in Dudley, before completing his education at W.R. Tuson College (now Preston College). Henry’s first manager was Robert Luff, who signed him in 1975 and gave him the opportunity to perform as part of the Luff-produced touring stage version of The Black and White Minstrel Show. In July 2009, Lenny Henry stated he was contractually obliged to perform and regretted his part in the show. His earliest television appearance was on the New Faces talent show in 1976 where he repeatedly won.

He played for various clubs, scoring more than 180 league goals in a career spanning 22 years. Club career Early career at Blackpool Ball started his footballing career whilst still a schoolboy, playing for Ashton United , the team his father managed, amongst the hurly burly of the Lancashire Combination . He eventually came to prominence at Blackpool after falling foul of his headmaster over missing games for his school team (Farnworth Grammar) due to a youth contract he had acquired with Wolverhampton Wanderers . After he left school, Wolves decided not to take Ball on, and he started training with Bolton Wanderers but they too decided not to give him a professional deal, as manager Bill Ridding said he was too small. Blackpool signed him after Ball’s father called in a favour with the coach, an old friend with whom he used to play. Ball was given a trial in September 1961 and was immediately signed up as an apprentice.

Excerpt: The Westland Lynx is a British multi-purpose military helicopter designed and built by Westland Helicopters at its factory in Yeovil. Originally intended as a utility craft for both civil and naval usage, military interest led to the development of both battlefield and naval variants, which went into operational usage in 1977 and were later adopted by the armed forces of over a dozen nations, where it primarily serves in the battlefield utility, anti-armour, search and rescue and anti-submarine warfare roles. In 1986 a modified Lynx broke the airspeed record for helicopters, which still stands today. The helicopter is now produced and marketed by AgustaWestland. The initial design (then known as the Westland WG.13) was started in the mid-1960s as a replacement for the Westland Scout and Wasp, and a more advanced alternative to the UH-1 Iroquois. As part of the Anglo-French helicopter agreement signed in February 1967, the French company Aérospatiale were given a work share in the manufacturing programme. Aérospatiale received 30% of production with Westland performing the remainder. It was intended that France would buy Lynxes for its Navy and as an armed reconnaissance helicopter for the French Army, with Britain in return buying Aérospatiale Gazelles and Pumas for its armed forces. The French Army cancelled its requirement for Lynxes in October 1969. The original Lynx…

The album was conceived of and produced by Norman Granz. Granz, the founder of Clef Records (and later Verve Records), was also responsible for the Jazz at the Philharmonic concerts, at which all of the musicians on the album had performed . The album provides an overview of Astaire’s musical career, plus two original compositions by Oscar Peterson (“The Astaire Blues” and “The Second Astaire Blues”), and an informal Jam session . Astaire also demonstrates his tap dancing on three tracks . Peterson spoke warmly of the sessions that produced The Astaire Story in his autobiography, co-written by Gene Lees. Peterson noted that vocally, Astaire was not naturally attuned to Jazz phrasing, and that Astaire enjoyed playing the drums at home. Astaire gave each of the musicians on the album a gold identification bracelet, inscribed ‘With thanks, Fred A’. Ray Brown lost his bracelet, Alvin Stoller’s was stolen, but Peterson wore his for the rest of his life . A deluxe four LP box set was produced of The Astaire Story, in a strictly limited edition of 1384 copies, each one hand signed by Astaire and the artist David Stone Martin, who contributed original drawings and paintings to the album . The Astaire Story won the Grammy Hall of Fame Award in 1999, which is a special Grammy award established in 1973 to honor recordings that are at least twen…More:

Club career Early career at Blackpool Ball started his footballing career whilst still a schoolboy, playing for Ashton United , the team his father managed, amongst the hurly burly of the Lancashire Combination . He eventually came to prominence at Blackpool after falling foul of his headmaster over missing games for his school team (Farnworth Grammar) due to a youth contract he had acquired with Wolverhampton Wanderers . After he left school, Wolves decided not to take Ball on, and he started training with Bolton Wanderers but they too decided not to give him a professional deal, as manager Bill Ridding said he was too small. Blackpool signed him after Ball’s father called in a favour with the coach, an old friend with whom he used to play. Ball was given a trial in September 1961 and was immediately signed up as an apprentice. He turned professional in May 1962, making his league debut on 18 August 1962 against Liverpool at Anfield in a 2-1 victory. Everton Ball’s performances in the 1966 World Cup

Fresh, Fresher: Signed Edition $90 Fresh, Fresher is a monograph on the work of British artist Jane Simpson. It is a celebration of her career since 1992 when, while still a student, she first experimented with the use of ice and her now trademark refrigeration technique. Rather than following a strict chronological order the book surveys Simpson’s work thematically, punctuated by three critical texts. An introduction by Royal Academy Exhibitions Secretary, Norman Rosenthal, and essays by the Director of Kunsthalle Düsseldorf, Ulrike Groos, and Mark Godfrey of the Slade School of Art, London, place the artist’s work in a broader art historical context. By positioning the pieces in abstract perspectives of vivid colour, the book’s design accentuates the pastel tones and shades that, as in her rubber casts of kitchen utensils or photographs of Tupperware, Simpson characteristically uses in her work.Fresh, Fresher takes its title from Simpson’s sculpture of a pair of vases with roses in different stages of bloom, a work she based around two paintings by Italian painter Giorgio Morandi. A variation on the classical tradition of still life, this piece (2000) exemplifies the underlying themes invariably present in the artist’s work to date: the process of appropriation and transformation, and the dialectics of decay and renewal.

How I Defeated Schizophrenia $15.95 I am but mad north-north-west; when the wind is southerly, I know a hawk from a handsaw…Hamlet’s words from one of Norman Campbell’s favourite plays could well be used to describe his early life. Raised in a strict Calvinist community on the island of Lewis, without a father to give him a name, Norman’s feelings of alienation and paranoia grew as he grew, fearing the friendship of others and dreading the word applied to people who were illegitimate.Finally, after his MSc degree at Aberdeen University, the descent into the mire of schizophrenia began. Jobs came and went; Norman signed the Official Secrets Act, and in no time MI5 were ‘investigating’ him, while the police were on his case regarding Joycean adventures with loose women and other less savoury sexual peccadilloes. Then came stasis, dependency, solitude… and slow recovery.This is a triumphant story, graphically told and full of touching references to literature and painting. It concerns an outsider’s fight back against his demons, into a community (Christian), rewarding employment (medical), and a thoughtful hobby (bridge, where he found a new social world opening). The forming of friendships, the acceptance of responsibilities, and the perception of other people for what they are make Norman’s victory an immense achievement. It really is an inspiration – a beacon of light – to anyone touched by the shadow of mental illness.

Besides this, the Dutch architect Erick Van Egeraat is planning to build a business complex in the town centre.Geography The town is located in Western Siberia on the eastern bank of the

Life and Death of Classical Music: Featuring the 100 Best and 20 Worst Recordings Ever Made $13.99 In this compulsively readable, fascinating, and provocative guide to classical music, Norman Lebrecht, one of the world’s most widely read cultural commentators tells the story of the rise of the classical recording industry from Caruso’s first notes to the heyday of Bernstein, Glenn Gould, Callas, and von Karajan. Lebrecht compellingly demonstrates that classical recording has reached its end point–but this is not simply an expos? of decline and fall. It is, for the first time, the full story of a minor art form, analyzing the cultural revolution wrought by Schnabel, Toscanini, Callas, Rattle, the Three Tenors, and Charlotte Church. It is the story of how stars were made and broken by the record business; how a war criminal conspired with a concentration-camp victim to create a record empire; and how advancing technology, boardroom wars, public credulity and unscrupulous exploitation shaped the musical backdrop to our modern lives. The book ends with a suitable shrine to classical recording: the author’s critical selection of the 100 most important recordings–and the 20 most appalling.Filled with memorable incidents and unforgettable personalities–from Goddard Lieberson, legendary head of CBS Masterworks who signed his letters as God; to Georg Solti, who turned the Chicago Symphony into “ the loudest symphony on earth”–this is at once the captivating story of the life and death of classical recording and an opinioned, insider’s guide to appreciating the genre, now and for years to come.

Excerpt: Maldon (pronounced , locally ) is a town on the Blackwater estuary in Essex, England. It is the seat of the Maldon district and starting point of the Chelmer and Blackwater Navigation. Maldon is twinned with the Dutch town of Cuijk. The charter between the two towns was signed in 1970 to cement the relationship. Maldon’s name comes from Mael meaning ‘meeting place’ and dun meaning ‘hill’, so translated as “meeting place on the hill”. East Saxons settled the area in the fifth century and the area to the south is still known as the Dengie peninsula after the Dæningas. It became a significant Saxon port with a hythe or Quayside and artisan quarters. Evidence of imported pottery from this period has been found in archaeological digs. From 958 there was a royal mint issuing coins for the late Anglo-Saxon and early Norman kings.

Walter Leslie $44.99 Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Sir Walter Leslie was a 14th century Scottish nobleman and crusader. Along with his brother Norman Leslie, he participated in a 1356 reysa against the Prussians. He had returned by 1356. On 25 November 1363, King David II of Scotland obtained from King Edward III of England a safe-conduct for Walter and Norman to travel to the Holy Land. They traveled via Italy; they appear as witnesses to a deal signed by the authorities of Florence with the notorious English “White Band”, a group of English mercenaries who had fought in the Hundred Years War plying their trade in Italy. Walter and Norman eventually joined the crusade of King Peter I of Cyprus, as the latter attacked the Egyptian city of Alexandria. The city was captured, but King Peter was unable to hold it, and abandoned the city after looting it.
