Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

The practice stopping intrigues me.

Might other farm-soil health- and remediation-friendly sources have become available in closer and more convenient and seemingly effectiver ways?

The other part of the portion-related question below bears upon the number of bites from that cake.

Is the cake for one hungry person or for one polite person or for two-plus polite people nicely ingesting their dessert under polite circumstances (not bolt and run ;-D)?

The first subheading, Carpenter's apprentice, associates Otto Kubel (Aug. 31, 1868-1951) with carpentry.

Did that association always develop between carpentry and delayed painting?
In other words, did it seem logical, natural that he developed carpentry skills until he developed what he desired: art skills?
Did he then do carpentry on the side?

I now embrace Crocs. When my kids were younger, they would tell me, "Mom, don't wear those ugly crocs out in public." NOW everyone is wearing crocs. I have several pairs. The best thing for me in regard to getting older is I don't fret about much of anything. I adapt and move on, enjoying all life has to offer. Great article! I love your art!

Thanks. It is great to hear from you again. I am not travelling much, but I am receiving physiotherapy, which is working wonders for me. See my message.

Interesting. Hope you are doing well enough to travel to such places.

I am glad that you enjoyed it.

You got me with the title! But even without camels, the trail looks like a great opportunity to join education, physical activity, and entertainment. Thanks!

Of course, fairy tales are reflections of real life situations.

It never occured to me. May be:)

Yes, these colors are used for reason.

Not now, but the practice could return

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

The dinosaur manure from Southern England's Jurassic deposits intrigues me.

Is it an ongoing practice to involve such manure in modern farm-soil health and remediation?

The computer crashed again before I could continue with another question that came up what with the landscaping concerns.

Online sources disagree on Bekonscot etymologies.

The Beaconsfield & District Historical Society site furnishes bēacnes-feld and Bēce feld as respective sources for biogeography featuring a "beacon field" and "beech trees."

That site perhaps gives greater ground to "beech trees" because of their continued landscape presence and lesser ground to "beacon field" because of no historical record for field beacons being lit there.

The aforementioned site also indicates that the spelling "Bekon" is consistent with local pronunciation of "beacon" as BEH-kuhn instead of "BEE-kuhn"!

Was there any information available at the model-village site about place-name origins?

The computer crashed before I could continue to the other component of café-concerned questions.

What drinks and eats does the Viewing Park café offer?
