OK WHO THOUGHT I'D FORGOTTEN TO BLOG!

Yes it's late but I've had a busy day, at Church House near Warrington, a full day associated with my ministry course through Chester University and then back home, topped up the bird feeders don't want them deserting us before the big garden bird watch at the end of the month talking of which our first overseas adventures are nearly ready to take off starting early Feb in Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia then it's all go through to next Christmas with so much happening including Russia in May and Ukraine in July plus Madagascar and Reunion in the autumn. I've spent the remainder of the afternoon and all evening getting the Bus Spot Ultra DVD ready and I've done it and in the next few minutes a whole torrent of trailers will go on our Youtube channel which hopefully will continue it's post New Year collapse recovery as the Google auctions push up the rates for advertisers and you my friends get clicking on the adverts.

The new Norwich DVD last over 120minutes and is the most comprehensive coverage of the developments of buses in East Anglia ever released. I'm not sure what we shall get up to next week, Monday looks like foul weather, my only hopes for film work are Tuesday and Thursday. Wednesday we are watching Sir John Tomlinson give singers a masterclass at the RNCM and then the church pcc in the evening and on Friday we are visiting one of our artist relations over on Merseyside. So as ever a fun filled week not to mention evening class Monday and mundane things like churchwarden duties tomorrow. We have just signed on to walking St Cuthberts Way at the back end of August which neatly joins on to Lathalmond bus museum open weekend and saves us having to driver up to Scotland twice albeit in the van and not the comfort of Mandy's car.The hotel does all the running around picking up, dropping off, luggage, packed lunches etc although the final day's walking will be a challenge getting to Lindesfarne. I'm not really sure what to bring you, the elimination of the roundabout we enjoyed at Trafford Park seems to be relevent having seen it's enormous replacement on Friday so lets go back there.
