Whats made you happy today? - R852 PRG - 27 Apr 2015

Well, after a seemingly never-ending day at school, as I headed to my grandmas this evening for a chat - I was greeted with some photos on her laptop of the ''Coast & Country'' launch on Friday.

About ten photos, quite a few show Dan in them, as well as Bazza and someone else alongside him, not too clear though. Wasn't a high quality camera she took, although she did comment on the number of seemingly random people stopping to take photos!

Anyway, she managed to pick up some merchandise I had told her about, and it looks like she was handed two bags. So, I have two days of free travel. Big Grin Nice one, Go North East! She also said she would be interested in riding some of the new buses when they enter service, as she said it looked like a ''first class'' bus on the inside. Tongue

Bournemouth getting promoted.
What an achievement after nearly slipping into the conference six years ago.

Now I recall chatting with an older woman who said they looked like "first class buses"..!

I wonder if I unintentionally spoke to your grandma last Friday... If so, she was certainly more talkative than you were at The Galleries the first time you saw me, Marcus!

We learnt the hard way that I'm a non-stop chatterbox in Durham a month ago, didn't we? Wink

Now on their Facebook

You see that's actually a nice shot. The Transporter Bridge presents an interesting background and, I don't know if you've noticed, the structure of the bridge runs perfectly parallel with the roof of the coach. 

In my opinion, it beats any bus station shot. 

Kudos.

Cheers, I did think the same when I was uploading the image last night.

I do try and make my photos as interesting as I can and much prefer taking and viewing photos away from bus stations, not saying there is anything wrong with bus station shots but I think it is good to provide variety.

Declared Insolvent round about the same time...

Very fricking solvent now Big Grin

I swore I forgot to my bin out on my way to work this morning. But upon my return I discovered my bin outside, empty. Presumably it wasn't the refuse technicians, so it remains a mystery, but I'm happy nonetheless.
