1000 People are reading the blog this week

I noted that over the past week the average hits are 6K-10K over a 7 day period and this contains around 1000 different people.  Just when you are tired ( as I am) after getting up at 5am and making the huge journey via pack horse and horse wagons over the cobbled roads to Norfolk then when you finally gtet back with four hours Norwich to Lower Peover i get an email from a trolleybus person ( for want of a better word) regarding the Reading trolleybus film which I guess was shown there at a recent event blowing his top over it not being new and breaking copyright etc etc....... well it wouldn't be new as they don't have trolleys in Reading now and even Leeds will it seems not enjoy such a mode of transport. In fact trolleybus interest in the UK is at a very low ebb and other than a clutch of orders prompted by said event in Reading there are few fans of that type of bus.  The same may well be said of trams which although existing in several towns and cities in the UK and Scotland the fan base remains tiny and the loyal band of enthusiasts ever ageing, the trial of 12 months of PMP  adverts in TUT will not be repeated in 2017.

The weather in Kings Lynn wasn't that brilliant given that most of the country enjoyed clear blue sky and hot temps, I think it was getting a bit of coastal fog, it was better in Norwich but they were relaying the main road through the city and this was causing some hold ups but worked to advantage in the end. All manner of colours schemes and even saw a Border bus from the deepest parts of the county in addition to the expanding Sanders fleet, Konect etc.  I also eyed up a couple of possible truck film locations for future use. I'm just working my way through yesterdays film in the South West and hopefully will get Norfolk edited tomorrow before we head up to Scotland on Friday. All bets off as weather is set to be lousy over the weekend , I'll try and get some bus material as rain permits, thinking of Kilmarnock and even Port Glasgow or Airdrie. Anyway lets rewind back to yesterday and we have shots at the roundabout in Monmouth. Well tired now just ready for my bed, lots of jobs to do tomorrow, booking concerts, making DVDs, sorting cine films to copy, polishing the cars that i washed only they are dirty again, putting replacement plants in tub outside front door, getting my specimen off for bowel cancer check - what a fun filled day i'll have. That's after we get DVD orders done etc.
