A busy day, the weather was certainly not 100% as forecast but when is it ever so. I wanted to get Halifax covered as the present bus station will close while the new on is built on the same site. In the interim the stops will all be roadside which should be interesting. The first visit without Walsh's minibuses, what shame they have finished. The drivers were all very friendly. Halifax has invested in plastic pollution with a sea of red plastic barriers and lots of pavement and lamp post badges. Social distancing not particularly a problem with Asian community, those I saw ( majority) were white. Nobody bothered and stupid lines and arrows just confuse the situation and make people scared and not visit the towns. Meanwhile I saw nothing other than the Porton Down lookalike place by the city hall that would put anyone off visiting. A lot of towns and cities seem to have a death wish on business. Bradford was much quieter than Halifax though. Buses seemed a tad under normal but not too bad, some scruffy ones from First, nothing new there then. Anyway tonight's slide show takes us back to Tuesday and Scarborough. Back to Halifax tomorrow night. Tomorrow I have to chase BT for new phone/net contract, get label from Hermes which won't print and speak to health centre about upping my nerve pain blockers. I want to get the sanding and rubbing down under way on the display cabinet. We are looking to travel to Northern Ireland week after next, circa 12th Sept , we will check the weather mid next week and then decide. It is possible I will be covering South Wales locations next Monday/Tuesday again depends on weather. Good to meet up with two of our young viewers this afternoon in Bradford, they had visited Leeds airport to record the new bus services to the facility. Comments are closed.
