Today was the day went almost to plan with cloudless skies as promised which looked ready to continue through sunset and another cold night ahead. I got up about 5.30 had breakfast and pottered up the M6 passing 6 wide loads spread out through the journey each with their own little tailback. I filled up at ASDA and had a sausage butty and cuppa at their cafe then parked up near the road maintenance yard the other side of the M6. It was a while before the sun was up enough to get half decent shots with the video camera, when it did the first thing I noticed was that the volume of cars was greater than usual, this I understand was due to winter sales, orange Friday or something from America. Anyway it was a nuisance rather than a problem and as the day went on the sun and light weren't that far short of spring conditions and I managed to accumulate three hours or so of film which will get edited once I've finished the Bus Spot Ultra Edinburgh. I met one of our friends while filming and got an update on local buses and lorries, yes there are other people who appreciate both types of transport. Just to whet your appetites here are some shots I took while bound up in gloves, scarf, hat and two pairs of thick socks! Comments are closed.
