hello!! first of all, thank you for running one of the coolest blogs on this platform. your work is a real treasure trove.

i was wondering if you knew of the blog kumakimonokoi and its incredible ''kimono textbook'' ressource? it was a great catalogue of what kimono are worn during what season, what degree of formality, etc, i believe it was ran by billy matsunaga. the blog is now gone, and i don't follow her socials- so i'm not up to date. do you know if this ressource has been moved somewhere, or if a similar catalogue could be available elsewhere? it was so helpful, i'm gutted to think it might have vanished haha ;;

Hi! Billy Matsunaga is very much active, her new site is here, and you can find her on youtube and instagram :)

For the ressources, many sites do provide those type of info - depending of what degree of details you need of course. Search for kimono/着物 TPO (= short for Time-Place-Occasion).

Of what I believe could help you, here is a handy chart (source?):

And this seasonality one from AubergineFleur's blog, also covering accessories like obijime/obiage/juban:

Possiamo correre, essere grandine

In queste superpotenze debolissime

Possiamo costruire pace e grandi opere

Che prima o poi torneranno polvere

Possiamo andare sulle stelle piu lontane

Anche se le metropolitane sono circondate

Possiamo navigare a vista senza regole

Avere da vincere, niente da difendere

Possiamo illuderci, ballare stando fermi

E fare caso a quando siamo felici

Possiamo crescere ma ricordare per sempre

La tua piccola cicatrice a forma di fulmine

Tile Roofing Installation: Durable and Stylish Roofing Solution for Your Home

When it comes to enhancing your home’s durability and curb appeal, tile roofing installation stands out as a popular choice. Known for its longevity, aesthetic appeal, and resilience against the elements, tile roofing is a fantastic investment for homeowners. In this article, we'll explore the benefits of tile roofing, the installation process, and why choosing professionals like StormPro Roofing can make a significant difference in achieving a high-quality, lasting result.

Benefits of Tile Roofing

1. Longevity and Durability Tile roofs can last over 50 years with minimal maintenance, making them one of the most durable roofing options. Unlike other materials, tile is resistant to rot, insect damage, and extreme weather conditions, including hail and high winds.

2. Energy Efficiency Tile roofing offers excellent thermal performance. It naturally ventilates, allowing air to flow beneath the tiles and reducing the amount of heat transferred into the home. This quality helps keep homes cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, which can contribute to lower energy bills.

3. Fire and Weather Resistance Tile roofing is both fire-resistant and resilient against harsh weather conditions. This feature makes it an ideal choice for homes in regions prone to high heat, hail, or heavy rainfall.

4. Aesthetic Versatility Available in a variety of colors, shapes, and finishes, tile roofing provides numerous design options that enhance a home’s visual appeal. From traditional terracotta to modern slate-like designs, there’s a tile roofing style for every taste.

The Tile Roofing Installation Process

A professional tile roofing installation involves several steps to ensure durability and quality:

Initial Inspection and Preparation Before installation, a thorough inspection of the roof structure is conducted. This step ensures the roof can support the weight of the tiles and helps identify any repairs needed for a stable base.

Underlayment Installation A high-quality underlayment is essential for waterproofing. It provides an added layer of protection between the tiles and the roof deck, preventing water damage.

Tile Placement Tiles are laid according to a specific pattern that allows for optimal water drainage. Proper spacing and secure fastening of each tile ensure they remain intact even under challenging weather conditions.

Final Inspection After installation, a final inspection ensures the tiles are secure and meet quality standards. This inspection helps verify that the roof is installed to withstand the elements for many years to come.

Hello, tanuki!

I do so adore your blog. You select the most interesting patterns and colours to showcase; it’s a feast for the eyes and brain!

I understand this may be a liiiil outside your wheelhouse, but as Goggle continues to degrade, I thought I’d have less frustration searching elsewhere: is there a Japanese equivalent to White Tie dress?

Thank you very much for all your work!

—shmoo

Hiiii your ask sat in my inbox for so long I apologize T_T

As anglo-saxon "white tie" expects super formal gala type of dress, same goes for Japanese hyper formal events.

Nowadays, most Japanese people would more easily favor Western style attire, but if choosing kimono, top two rows of pic below show equivalents:

Irotomesode for married women / women of a certain age. Kurotomesode could be worn in an official setting, but for a more light-hearted gala, wearer would present herself as pretty "traditional" minded if picking a kurotomesode imo (?I don't know it could work for older women though?)

Furisode, THE best choice hands down for young women / artists of all ages. Bring all the bling!!!

Formal hômongi is a great option, allowing more expression than demure irotomesode (tbh hômongi is probably the closest thing to a Western cocktail dress ^^)

Men do not have as many options sadly: 紋付羽織袴 montsuki-haori-hakama attire is pretty similar in formality to the classical American white tie. This formal wear pairs, as name stresses, haori (with tassel haori-himo, see different types here) + nagagi (men kimono) + hakama.

Kuromontsuki (black base montsuki, the most formal) or iromontsuki (colored montsuki) are both acceptable. Choices in fabrics, patterns, and colors would show wearer's style.

For men and women alike, the more formal the event is, the more mon (crest) garments presents (5 crests being the maximum). Crest should be dyed into the fabric (not outlined with thread which is the less formal way the wear crest).

Hope that helps ;)

Felling of The Newnes Oak. A 250-year-old veteran tree, Ellesmere, Shropshire

The felling of the veteran oak tree known as The Newnes Oak, a 250-year-old (English Oak) (Quercus robur ) occurred on the morning of 15th August 2023 on land belonging to Grocott Developments, Prees Ltd. As of 23rd Feb 2024 Forestry Commission England (Forest Services) investigation is on-going. The author was alerted to the felling by a concerned local resident whose property overlooks the 6.4 Ha (16-acre) field in which the oak stood. The veteran oak was the only tree standing in this sizeable field. There are several hedgerow trees, and a Business Park adjoins the field.

On the day of the launch of Tree of the Year 2023...this happened

To enable dialogue to take place with contractors at the scene, the author met with them on-site as they dismantled the oak. He was informed that the tree would be removed from the site the next day.

Photographs and video were freely shot at the scene. No requests to cease were made. The author did not take photographs of the contractor's faces or company truck.

When contacted by the author, the Managing Director of Grocott Developments Ltd explained that there were no current planning applications for this field/site. The author noted that at the northern end of the field, a mechanical digger was on site, as were a number of persons in high-vis attire. By the field gate, soil-sample bags were stacked in a pile.

When contacted, Grocott Developments Ltd's managing director spent over ten minutes extolling the environmental and charitable virtues of Grocott Developments. Also, their attention to sustainability and their actions as a company showing they [Quote 'did not pay lip service to such issues.'] When asked as to just why this significant veteran oak was felled, he declined to answer. The author is unsure if there was a professional and fully qualified tree report completed for this tree. ie, one undertaken by a VetCert qualified arboriculturist specialising in veteran and ancient trees. The author also assumes that any Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) implications will be taken into account by Shropshire Council if any planning applications for the site arise. BNG is an approach to development, and/or land management, that aims to leave the natural environment in a measurably better state than it was beforehand. Visit Govt./DEFRA here for further details... > BNG Explained

Naturally hollowed out oak with PLENTY of sap wood remaining

©Mike Coburn The Newnes Oak The oak tree had no Tree Preservation Order attached to it, as was confirmed by the author after chatting with the Shropshire Council Tree Officer manager whilst the author was on site. There was also no Forestry Commission felling licence in place. However, subsequent advice to the author made it clear that the size and bulk of the veteran oak tree may have meant that it contravened the Forestry Commission's (FC) Felling Licence regulations regarding their 5 cubic metres of timber regulations.

The exact measurements of the prone oak were later taken on-site and forwarded to the West Midlands Forestry Commission (FC) office. On 22nd August 2023, an FC officer visited the site. The oak tree had been removed by this time. As of 23rd February 2024, the Forestry Commission (Forest Services) investigation is ongoing.

Paragraph 180 c) of the NPPF states that 'development resulting in the loss or deterioration of irreplaceable habitats (such as ancient woodland and ancient or veteran trees) should be refused unless there are wholly exceptional reasons and a suitable compensation strategy exists.

Childhood Memories This veteran oak tree is a tree of the authors' childhood. Children from the adjacent housing estates would venture across the playing fields, wade across The Newnes Brook, and venture across the open farmland on adventurous childhood play. One child even worked for the then-farm owner at Newnes Farm. Like many towns across the UK, the brook and fields formed a significant part of many people's childhoods. With this in mind, you can imagine the distress of losing such a significant veteran oak tree and the loss of part of one's childhood, too.

The author is a volunteer local Tree Warden for Ellesmere under the Tree Council's Tree Warden scheme.[He has no official powers and is NOT a qualified arboriculturist]
