Photo of the day

It's an art drystane dyking and hard graft. It's truly amazing when you see the stane dykes running away up over the hillsides and to think that some were built well over a 100 years ago
 
The Routemaster, my favourite bus of all time! I spent hours on the number 13 on it's route around North London as a kid.
I wanted to buy one and live in it but life gets in the way of mad dreams like that!

When I lived in Lancashire as a boy it was possible to catch buses to everywhere even the most obscure hamlets. That system seems to have collapsed as car purchase and subsidies have dried up. In my area of the Eden valley east of the M6 public transport is zero apart from a couple of volunteer bus services for pensioners and the Settle Carlisle railway with approx 4 trains each way per day. Imagine my amazement when I visited friends in the Sierra Nevada mountains of Spain. Every village had a bus service sometimes several buses a day.

Ravenglass which still has 2 stations!!
