Referaat "Chelsea Flower Show"

something new, change experiences with others. But so many people can also make it uncomfortable and even stressful unless you go simply relax and go with the flow, or get there truly early or late. Wear something sensible and take a break, its a long, long day. So I am not sure about that theory is true. Anyway Chelsea Flower Show is so popular that it is always a sell-out. Last minute Chelsea wannabes hang out on street corners with signs asking for tickets, like with some world famous musical.  5 Most of the people who have been there want to go back there. Maybe it is because of that in Chelsea Flower Show country meets town; where chic urbanites drink champagne and wear their designer outfits alongside elderly squires in tattered Barbours and red ­ faced countrywomen with muddy fingernails; where designers and architects encounter nurserymen and jobbing gardeners

London

Paul's Cathedral which was finished in 1280. Tudor London 1485-1603 When Henry VII took the throne in 1485, the population of the city of London was about 75,000. By 1600 that number had risen to 200,000. London also grew in importance under the Tudor rule. As the Roman Catholic Church didn't give Henry VIII a divorce he wanted, he changed the entire religion of England. He also started to build ships, as Britain's navy expanded and Britain began exploring the world. Henry VIII also united England and Wales. During the reign of Elizabeth I, London was a wealthy and successful city. Culture was very important. London's first theatre " The Theatre" was opened in 1576. To escape censorship by the City's Lord Mayor the Globe and the Rose theatres were rebuilt in Southwark, in an area then largely occupied by prisons and bear pits. Stuart London 1603-1649; 1660-1714 In 1603 when James the IV of Scotland became James I of Scotland and England, he united

The Witch Trials in Salem

Throughout this time, it was increasingly believed that Christianity was engaged in an apocalyptic battle against the Devil and his secret army of witches, who had entered into a diabolical pact. The Malleus Maleficarum, an infamous witch-hunting manual used by both Catholics and Protestants, outlines how to identify a witch, what makes a woman more likely than a man to be a witch, how to put a witch on trial, and how to punish a witch. In the modern Western world, witchcraft accusations have often accompanied the satanic ritual abuse moral panic. Such accusations are a counterpart to blood libel of various kinds, which may be found throughout history across the globe. Though witch-craze took different forms at different times and places, but never lost its essential character: that of a ruling class campaign of terror directed against the female peasant population

The Blackpool Dance Festival

Blackpool Dance Festival Introduction I´m going to talk about a famous annual ballroom dance competition. I chose this subject because I have always admired their dresses, because these are always different and very sparkling. This competition is also well-known all over the world. Blackpool The festival takes place in Blackpool. A seaside city in the north-west of England. The population of this town is 142 900. The headquarters of an outstanding British sports car manufacturer TVR are also located in Blackpool. The biggest income of this town is based on tourism industry. The highest peak in tourism was from 1900 to 1950 when the beach and promenade was full of crowds. An interesting fact is that reputedly the town still has more

Stonehenge

Stonehenge Stonehenge is a prehistoric monument located in the English county of Wiltshire, about 3.2 kilometres (2.0 mi) west of Amesbury and 13 kilometres (8.1 mi) north of Salisbury. One of the most famous prehistoric sites in the world, Stonehenge is composed of earthworks surrounding a circular setting of large standing stones. Archaeologists had believed that the iconic stone monument was erected around 2500 BC, as described in the chronology below. However one recent theory has suggested that the first stones were not erected until 2400-2200 BC,[1] whilst another suggests that bluestones may have been erected at the site as early as 3000 BC (see phase 1 below).

Australia

Australia Australia is the smallest continent in the world. It is 7.6 million square kilometres big. It is often called the island continent because it is rather small for a continent and very big for an island. There are only five countries bigger than Australia in the World. There are five states in the mainland. Tasmania is also considered as a state so there are six states. The Northern Territory and Canberra are also independent but they are not states. Canberra is the capital of Australia and it is situated between Sydney and Melbourne because both of these cities wanted to be the capital. The population is about 19 million people and growing. New South Wales is the most populated state and Victoria is the most densely populated state. The national

Topic - Canada 2

Topic ­ Canada Tallinn English College 2006  1. Introduction If you had to use two words to describe Canada, they might be large and diverse. Canada is the second largest country in the world with a territory of about 10 million square kilometers and it is bordered by three oceans: the Arctic, the Pacific and the Atlantic Oceans. The population of Canada is about 31 million people. About 77% of the people live in cities which lie in a band about 100 miles wide above the border of the United States. The capital of Canada is Ottawa. Other large cities are Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver, Winnipeg and Quebec. 2. Geographical position

Cats

Cinnamon Fawn UK: Fawn-based Caramel These colours will naturally look a little different on Burmese (due to the sepia gene), Tonkinese (mink gene) and cats with the silver Inhibitor gene. For clarity, this article will ignore those additional genes and just look at the eumelanin (black) series of colours. An additional type of recessively carried brown colour has been reported in laboratory cats, but not in the outside world. Termed "Barrington Brown", a cat with two copies of this gene had black pigment diluted as shown below. Because it hasn't (yet) been seen in the cat fancy, this gene is enigmatic to many fanciers. Some have suggested it is the same as caramel (dilute modifier), however some reports indicate cats with 2 copies of the Barrington Brown gene were different in colour from cats with only one copy of the gene (which seems odd since the gene is recessive and cats with
