# HMIS Oudh (J245)

HMIS Oudh (J245) was a Bangor-class minesweepers built for the Royal Navy, but transferred to the Royal Indian Navy (RIN) during the Second World War.

## Design and description

The Bangor class was designed as a small minesweeper that could be easily built in large numbers by civilian shipyards; as steam turbines were difficult to manufacture, the ships were designed to accept a wide variety of engines. Oudh displaced 673 long tons (684 t) at standard load and 860 long tons (870 t) at deep load. The ship had an overall length of 189 feet (57.6 m), a beam of 28 feet 6 inches (8.7 m) and a draught of 10 feet 6 inches (3.2 m). The ship's complement consisted of 60 officers and ratings.
She was powered by two vertical triple-expansion steam engines (VTE), each driving one shaft, using steam provided by two Admiralty three-drum boilers. The engines produced a total of 2,400 shaft horsepower (1,800 kW) and gave a maximum speed of 16 knots (30 km/h; 18 mph). The ship carried a maximum of 160 long tons (163 t) of fuel oil that gave her a range of 2,800 nautical miles (5,200 km; 3,200 mi) at 10 knots (19 km/h; 12 mph).
The VTE-powered Bangors were armed with a QF 12-pounder (7.62 cm) anti-aircraft gun and a single QF 2-pounder (4 cm) AA gun or a quadruple mount for the Vickers .50 machine gun. In some ships the 2-pounder was replaced a single or twin 20 mm Oerlikon AA gun, while most ships were fitted with four additional single Oerlikon mounts over the course of the war. For escort work, their minesweeping gear could be exchanged for around 40 depth charges.

## Construction and career

HMIS Oudh was ordered in 1940, and built by Garden Reach Shipbuilders & Engineers in India. She was commissioned in 1943, into the Eastern Fleet. She escorted a number of convoys until the end of the war.

## Pakistan service

After the independence of India and the subsequent partition, she was among the vessels transferred to Pakistan and renamed PNS Dacca.

# Hazell (TV series)

Hazell is a British television series that ran from 1978–1979, about a fictional private detective named James Hazell.

## Overview

James Hazell was a cockney private detective character created by journalist and novelist Gordon Williams and footballer Terry Venables, who wrote under the joint pseudonym of P.B.Yuill. The first book, Hazell Plays Solomon, appeared in 1974.
"Hazell Plays Solomon" was also the first episode of the TV series. The wise-cracking private detective was played by Nicholas Ball. Hazell was a smart parody of earlier film-noir detectives such as Philip Marlowe or Sam Spade, the casting of Ball in the title role made for a younger TV Hazell than the Hazell in the books.
A Thames Television Network Production, Hazell ran for 22 one-hour-long episodes (50 minutes without adverts). Its theme music was composed by Andy Mackay; the end credits incorporated the theme music with added lyrics, written by Judy Forrest and sung by Maggie Bell. An academic work, Hazell: The Making of a TV Series by Manuel Alvarado and Edward Buscombe (BFI Publishing) appeared in March 1978.

# Lugar Water

The Lugar Water, or River Lugar, is created by the confluence of the Bellow Water and the Glenmuir Water, just north of Lugar, both of which flow from the hills of the Southern Uplands in East Ayrshire, Scotland.

## Course
### Source to Cumnock

The river flows through the small mining village of Lugar, where at Bellow Mill, William Murdoch, the inventor of gas lighting was born in 1754. A cave where he carried out a lot of his experiments can still be seen on the riverbank. The river then flows on through the town of Cumnock, under the Woodroad Viaduct, where its water was used in earlier times to power grain mills and where it is joined by Glaisnock Water.

### Cumnock to Ochiltree

West of Cumnock the river continues its journey through Dumfries Estate, formerly owned by the Marquess of Bute. In July 2007 a consortium led by Charles III (then the Prince of Wales) succeeded in purchasing the house, contents and estate. The estate was then managed under the auspices of his Dumfries House Trust, and since 2018 The Prince's Foundation.
Close to Dumfries House the river flows beneath the Avenue Bridge, designed by John Adam. who also designed and built Dumfries House. A few yards downstream the Lugar flows beneath an elegant Chinese footbridge built in 2017.
Continuing west the river reaches the village of Ochiltree, where it is joined by the Burnock Water and its waters are harnessed by a weir which drove the local grain mills in days gone by. Here Atlantic salmon have been seen jumping the fish ladder, which allows them to reach their spawning grounds in the upper reaches of the river. The river also holds a good stock of the native brown trout, and these are fished for by anglers of all ages.

### Lower Reaches

The river now enters a gorge of red sandstone with high cliffs on either side. High on one of these cliffs stand the ruins of Ochiltree Castle and beneath this can be found Wallace's Cave, where William Wallace allegedly hid from his pursuers.
The Lugar now reaches the end of its journey of some twenty miles. Two miles south of Mauchline the Lugar joins the River Ayr, which carries its waters to the sea.

## Wildlife

Kingfishers and dippers are two of the avian species to be found on its riverbanks, along with yellow and pied wagtails, chaffinch, goldfinch and the tiny wren.

# III. Kerületi TVE

III. kerületi Torna- és Vívóegylet - formerly also known as III. Kerületi TUE or III. Kerületi TTVE - is a Hungarian football club based in Óbuda in the III district (kerületi) of Budapest. It was founded on 24 January 1887. The club colours are blue and white. The club plays in the third division (Nemzeti Bajnokság III) at its home stadium, the Hévízi út.
In the final of the Hungarian Cup of the season 1930/31 the club, then playing as III. Kerületi TVE, they defeated Ferencvárosi TC 4−1.

## History

One of the oldest sports associations in Hungary was founded as III. kerületi Torna- és Vívóegylet (III District Gymnastics and Fencing Association) on January 24, 1887, in one of the small restaurants in Óbuda. The choice of the name was made in the spirit of the time, athletics, cycling and the rest feel in the "gymnastics" part of the name, while a special emphasis was put on "fencing", which was a major sport in many parts of the world at the time.
The club did not have a football section, and this was formed late, when football started to become popular in Budapest. The real beginning of football in Óbuda can be traced back to October 31, 1897, when members of the two most important associations in this district of Budapest, the III. Kerületi TVE (founded in and Óbudai Torna Egylet (the Óbuda Gymnastics Association, founded in 1872) decided to create the Budai Football Csapat (Buda Football Club). This "marriage" ended with the founding of III Kerületi TVE's own football team on April 30, 1899. Either the date 1897 or 1899 is considered as official starting date of the football club nowadays.
III. District TVE made its debut in Hungary's first division NB I in 1911, and stayed in the highest division without interruption between 1913 and 1937, reaching its greatest successes in the twenties and thirties. In 1931 it defeated Ferencváros 4–1 in the final of the Hungarian Cup, and in 1914 he finished 3rd in the Augusta Cup. In NB I, it was pushed off the podium four times, and finished fourth in 1921, 1925, 1930 and 1933. It took almost six decades for the club to get back to the NB I: in 1996 it was the champion of the NB II East Group. It immediately dropped out again and it got bak to NB I in 1998, and i t dropped out again 4 years later.
In 2000 III. Kerületi TVE's football section merged with Csepel SC and moved the first team to Csepel Island. For the next two years the club played under the Csepel SC name. The youth teams stayed in Óbuda. The football section of Csepel got dissolved in summer 2002 and in 2003 the senior football team re-formed at the club then called III. Kerületi TUE, back in the III district. The team started in the fourth division which the club won undefeated. Since then the team has been playing in the Hungarian third division until 2021, when it got promoted to the NB II once again.
On 14 September 2024, they were eliminated by Kisvárda FC from the 2024–25 Magyar Kupa season. The match ended with a goalless draw and Kerület lost on penalties.
