CHINEESE WRITING

On my days off, I drive for a bus company, usually school runs..Today I did a baths run, from Bedlington Station to Ashington baths..Now, I used to go to the station school, and the playground then seemed gigantic, seen it today, its so, so small, could hardly believe it..Dont things seem big when your a kid? Mars bars were twice the size, summers were hotter, and lasted forever, and when it snowed the snow lay for weeks.. Did anyone else go to that school, when Mrs Muter was there, And Miss Scott was the head mistress, Mr Gorman, Mrs Foreman

THANK GOD FOR THAT, THOUGHT i HAD RAN A NUN OVER ON THE WAY HOME

How big are pengiuns?

Cheers Pete, the swan picture was published in the Journal last Tuesday

Young geese hatched, arrrrrrrrrrrrrhhhhhhhh

Eye Pete, I remeber having to get out at the bottom of the bank, and walk up, the bus would come up empty, and we would all get on again...Remember one bus having to reverse up the bank for the lower gearing..yes the hair pin bank side was bad, but great for going down on bogies

Yip, really good pictures, excellent exposures..what camera are you using hon? Hard to believe that bridge was used by the Blyth bus (48) before the blue bridge was built, double deckers going over that and up the bank,

Cheers hon

Please excuse my presumptuousness, I should have checked your profile first, hope you can find your way to forgive me

Cheers lads
