Source: A Choice of Kipling's Verse (1943)
Watch Michael Cain read an extract from 'If' by Rudyard Kipling.
Rudyard Kipling was an incredibly popular English poet. His writing is read around the world and studied in classrooms.
‘If’ is an inspirational poem written by the British writer, Rudyard Kipling, in about 1895. He wrote the poem as if he was advising his son on how to find his place in life and to live a life in harmony with the values, principles and virtues that are contained in it.
The key learning is not to buckle down to criticism but at the same time not to disregard it blindly. Very often it is difficult to maintain a balance between these positions. We live in a world of instant gratification and want everything “now”. “The importance of patience when it is called for”.
Tumblr media
Any lover of tennis can probably tell you that several of the lines of ‘If—’ are hanging at the player’s entrance at Centre Court Wimbledon in England. The lines that are displayed read, “If you can meet with triumph and disaster and treat those two impostors just the same.” The piece has been voted as one of Britain’s favourite poems. While Kipling wrote poetry, novels, and articles, he is most notably known for his collection of short stories called The Jungle Book, written in 1894. A British writer, Kipling, won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1907.

@matthew_b_roberts
Have you ever encountered a boss that set an example to follow? It seems like it's easy to take Outlander memorabilia home (or office), like the A. Malcolm Printer & Bookseller metal sign. 🪧 and Stephen Bonnet's testicles in a jar (we are waiting for this black and white photo caption).

Watch Tobias Menzies read an extract from Mater 2-10, the #InternationalBooker2024-shortlisted novel written by Hwang Sok-yong and translated by Sora Kim-Russell and Youngjae Josephine Bae
Directed by Charlotte Hamblin for Merman.
Tumblr media
SHORTLISTED FOR THE INTERNATIONAL BOOKER PRIZE International Booker–---nominated virtuoso Hwang Sok-yong is back with another powerful story — an epic tale that threads together a century of Korean history. In contemporary Seoul, a laid-off worker stages a months-long sit-in atop a sixteen-storey factory chimney.
During the long and lonely nights, he talks to his ancestors, chewing on the meaning of life, on wisdom passed down the generations. Through the lives of those ancestors, three generations of railroad workers, Mater 2-10 vividly portrays the struggles of ordinary Koreans, starting from the Japanese colonial era, continuing through Liberation, and right up to the twenty-first century.
It is at once a gripping account of a nation’s longing to be free from oppression, a lyrical folktale that reflects the blood, sweat, and tears shed by modern industrial labourers, and a culmination of Hwang’s career — a masterpiece thirty years in the making. A true voice of a generation, Hwang shows again why he is unmatched when it comes to depicting the roots and reality of a divided nation and bringing to life the trials and tribulations of the Korean people.
@ The Booker Prizes
Absolutely brilliant, Tobias Menzies! 🤩 Just his facial expressions show the audience his level of acting 🎭

DaMan vs Nobleman
Just 4 Fun! Back in time
This is a Big Deal, the same thing happens again in live with no delay.
Nobleman is for a male audience. Some skew toward men's fashion. Most are marketed to a particular age. The magazine is not marketed to a specific female group, except, when the intention is to sell to SH’s fans who have no interest in other articles in the magazine. We'll see if sales drop quickly or rise.
The photos taken by Nobleman remind me of the ones published in DaMan magazine back in April 2020. In those photos, SH wore a wig that didn't fit in, revealing the dark hair he still had. However, it's a matter of personal taste and preferences.
Tumblr media
After four years, Nobleman's recent photos show similar results. It's not surprising that he uses the same trick to look younger, given that his hair type doesn't have all the desired density. However, it's important to keep in mind that using a wig to achieve a more youthful appearance is not a genuine way to enhance one's beauty.
His hair replacement idea in 2022 was to be able to a more natural-looking solution, and it seems that he still doesn't get it.
Tumblr media
Nobleman used photo retouching services to gain an advantage in SH’s publishing. You have probably seen that his scar was removed here as his forehead furrows and his frown lines.

Sorry, no scoop here! Despite spending a lot of money on his appearance, he still wears a toupee. Most of the hair on his head in these photos is fake. May be necessary to retouch his transplant simply because he is not satisfied with the results

Could you ensure that you don't mistake reality for fiction again?
While the photographer did a good job, these photos reveal some details 🥴 It was already common knowledge that he had flat feet, but he should have taken care of his bunions before becoming someone who boasts of himself excessively. Regarding your business partner A.N., you may be giving more than you receive. It's important to be mindful of this imbalance.
Tumblr media
As for James Bond, SH seems to be developing a serious obsession with 007. SH is not considered as a serious contender and is considered as a 'filler'. In the last James Bond with Daniel Craig, only three or four names were mentioned, and SH was not among them. Interestingly, all possible contenders have remained silent on this matter, whereas SH continues to harp on about the same thing despite not being included in any lists anymore 🤷‍♀️

What are people wearing?
Feria de Abril, Sevilla & OLE! What an incredible Seville Fair! words can't even describe it, jumping from one beautiful dress to another, the colours, the passion, is the Spanish tradition 🇪🇸
The Feria de Abril (Seville April Fair) is one of the biggest celebrations of the year in Seville, Andalusia, Spain. This colourful festival takes place every spring, and it’s a unique opportunity to experience the local culture and traditions of Andalusia. You'll see traditional flamenco dancing, and horses and carts parading the city.
Tumblr media
The Feria de Abril has a long and rich history that dates back to the 19th century. It was created as a livestock fair, where farmers and merchants from all over Andalusia would come to Seville to sell and trade their animals. However, over time, the fair evolved into a celebration of Andalusian culture, music, and food, and it became one of the most important events of the year in Seville.
The fair is celebrated by the people of the Andalusian city of Seville, as well as visitors from other parts of Spain and from around the world. It is a time for dressing up in traditional flamenco attire, dancing, music, food, and drink. 💃
The Seville April Fair 2024 began on Sunday, April 14th at midnight and ended on Saturday, April 20th just before midnight. It lasts almost a week.
If you’re planning to attend the festival next year get ready for a unique and exciting adventure in Seville.

They’re currently awaiting a decision on the project. However, SH is already clinging over an architectural design that he did not commission nor pay for. It is important to note that he does not have any legal rights to the design. He takes advantage of any situation to gain an immediate advantage.
Tumblr media
It’s really just a wait and watch no smoke without fire situation, but the new company and this recent visit clutching the architect proposal is a reasonable amount of smoke . Put that with some statements he’s made over the last 18 months about his business and thoughts about what he may do initially after OL , it seems like logical speculation to me .
Is he clutching the architect’s proposal? I never take anything he says as gospel, whilst it’s true he can’t hold his own water, he also does love to embellish a story.

The Unexpected Guests?
I don't think SH’s visit to Midhope Castle had any relation with Midhope Distillery. The proposal It's outside his line and not his concern. He’s made much ado about nothing.
Tumblr media
It seems SH's interest was a public interest. During the statutory consultation period, SH made a public comment supporting the initiative, which was open to anyone in the public.
However, it's worth noting that there are ethical considerations in research, and in any other category, SH's comments could be seen as a conflict of interest and may even nullify the decision-making process that is currently awaiting a final decision. It's important to remember that the plans have not yet been approved
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Currently, there are over 50 reports from various research institutions among consultants, architects, engineers, the archaeological historical society, and other experts to complete the necessary plans for the Council. Numerous regulations have been proposed, and expectations are high. SH and AN have not any kind of string or making decisions in this project. This is the weakest field for him and his inexperienced partner AN whose sponsors are themselves.
If He visited Midhope Castle and was welcomed by the housekeeper of the bed and breakfast, Parkhead House (which is a private part of Hopetoun Estate) managed by Mr and Mrs. James Gourlay, the local family who live on the Estate, then it is most likely a display of show off to gain attention. It is quite possible that his fans will say the Laird was visiting the castle 🤦‍♀️ too fictional to be taken seriously.
In 2023, Midhope Distillery Company changed its name and now operates under a new name, but with the same persons. The company is registered in Scotland and is a private limited company by shares. However, it's important to note that SH is not involved in any category, owner, directorship or investment in this new company.
Midhope Castle’s Proposal: Application under Section 42 to vary planning conditions 1, 2, 3,6, 9 and 12 of planning permission 0543/FUL/20 is exclusively investment from Golden Decanters* and Hopetoun Estates Trust. The Estate which has traditionally grown and supplied malting barley to the Scottish whisky trade, and underground springs on the estate will provide the fresh water. If approved, the Midhope Castle Distillery will become one of a small number of single malt distilleries in the Lothians, including Glenkinchie in Tranent, and Chain Pier and Holyrood in Edinburgh.
Tumblr media
The castle lies on the same estate as Hopetoun House and its exterior has been used as a backdrop in Outlander. The new development planned for the estate will complement Hopetoun House and it will continue to be a filming location for other TV series and films. It is important to note that the plans for a distillery at Hopetoun Estate are completely unrelated to SH or Outlander.
The grounds of Midhope Castle are set to become the location of a new whisky distillery. This proposal is provided by Lord Hopetoun, (Laird Hopetown) Andrew Hope, and is intended to complement the already existing Hopetoun House and Estate, a 300-year-old Scottish estate to develop the region 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
