Just got back from London .... and enjoyed our trip.
However, last Saturday it was really too crowded. Some 2 million people were shopping in Oxford Street and Regent Street, spending some 200 million Pounds !!!!!
You can imagine how good it was to leave the crowd and enjoy a more quiet and greener part of the city.

New camera new photo attempt. Same lighting setup as last time but the photos came out a little better this time (more over all light captured, though still some light and focus balancing issues), still need to get more practice with the new camera. With how large this moc is and its color scheme the only way I may get real good photos is outside on an over cast day (not likely to happen with this moc) or with good convention hall lighting.
Schulze is back!! Years ago I had a Volks Schulze in my doll family which I also bought second hand. His faceup was so delicate and beautiful, but just not what I wanted for him, so I couldn’t bond with him and sold him later (I couldn’t wipe the custom faceup because of it’s beauty and so I decided to let him go to a person who loves him the way he was).
I really regretted that I sold him, many years I searched for another Schulze but no luck. Until now :)
I got him from a very nice seller on DoA and he arrived yesterday. I will change his faceup soon (still, it’s very beautiful too) but meanwhile I will keep him like he is for a while!

It's back!
Let me start by saying wow, I never expected to see a Superlight Curotto Can again after this same truck was switched to Commercial collection Summer 2016. In 2016 WMmaster626 and I were informed by Dave, a Moreno Valley driver, that Paul (the Superlight driver) was now driving a ASL. There is also a picture from Moises Aguirre from Flickr that shows the Superlight on Commercial (www.flickr.com/photos/wmtrucks/34552959740/in/dateposted/). Both WMmaster626 and I were upset by the news and regretted not going back to get more footage of the Superlight.
The way WMmaster626 and I found out the Superlight was returning to residential is quite interesting. Both of us were getting a tour of the Waste Management Corona yard by the Fleet Manager Tom, who started out in Moreno Valley (the yard where the Superlight resides). We had conversations about the drivers and trucks in Moreno Valley, all of whom Tom knows. We never brought up the Superlight but eventually we brought up Paul (who drove the Superlight). Tom told us how Paul used to drive this one of a kind truck from Heil with a custom Curotto Can (the Superlight) and how several people from WM liked that truck and the custom Curotto Can. We told Tom how we found that truck on route once and how it was one of our favorite trucks. Tom then informed us how the Superlight had already or was going to return to residential services shortly. WMmaster626 and I were in shock and could not believe what we had just heard. After the great tour in Corona we immediately headed to Woodcrest and we found a Python driver in Woodcrest who informed us Paul was still driving a ASL. Two weeks later WMmaster626 heard from Tom that the Superlight was officially back on route in Woodcrest. In early 2017 the Woodcrest routes were altered so the next week while WMmaster626 was in Washington I headed to Woodcrest once again see the Superlight and find out which portion of Woodcrest it was servicing. I found Paul on route with the Superlight now collecting Green Waste, WMmaster626 was glad to hear the Superlight was back on route and was looking forward to seeing it in person. The next month in October 2017 WMmaster626 and I returned to Woodcrest and filmed more footage of the Superlight.
During my September trip, I found the Superlight Curotto Can collecting Green Waste in Woodcrest. There are many green carts out on the Friday route so I was able to see many carts collected. Paul is a great driver and knows how to operate the Superlight in fast, smooth cycles. Woodcrest is a great area and unique to SoCal, most of Woodcrest has a Country feel to it with huge properties, some residents even own horses. Woodcrest was also once services by NEWCO Waste Systems and there are multiple black and blue ex NEWCO carts in the area, there are even a few NEWCO dumpsters still in the area. This is the only Waste Management Curotto Can Heil in SoCal, the next closest is most likely Oakland California. This is most likely the only Superlight Curotto still in service. Republic Services Pacheco used to have a Superlight but I do not believe it is still around.
Thank you to the driver Paul and a big thank you to Tom for informing us the Superlight was back, you made our day. Thank you to everyone for watching and let me know what you think of the video.
Another back to school card. I colored the school and the owl (HA printables) in colors of rainbow. The sentiment the owl holds says ´happy return to school`. Tfl
After two years of long expectation and longing... I'm coming back to Iran for three weeks... I'm coming home.
As I was born and raised in France, some may think that Iran is not my "home", and that I do not have the right to call myself an Iranian.
But I am Iranian, and proud to be. I may not know it as much as those who were raised there, but Iran is my homeland.
And I will the most excited of all when our plane will touch Iran's ground, when they will announce "Welcome to Tehran"...and when the doors will open... the wonderful air of "khaake Iran" (Iran's soil) will reach my nose, and its heat will caress my face. And I will lay my eyes on the beautiful mountains surrounding Tehran.
And feel home.

Thank you Mackenzie Leander for climbing on this sketchy roof top in your short little dress, you're an angel. This picture could easily be interpreted freely, I know what it means to me and it relates to the quote. Someone cared a lot for her, and she hurt them.

Stock Marauder Prototype back from Utah. Made a few adjustments and component swaps to bring it up to speed.
The back of the first floor will be changed. It's WAAAYYY under-detailed. Also, I need to make that staircase work. :P

Following deregulation in 1986 former Manchester Standards could be seen the length and beadth of the country enjoying a secondlife with a wide variety of operators. It wasn't just the new start up companies that took them, big fleet operators also found former Manchester standards to be worthy tools of the trade.
Finglands, who until deregulation had been principaly been a coach operator initially took some early 1972 Fleetlines for new services linking Manchester city centre with the Universities. They must have been happy with their purchases as a few years later more arrived including this 1977 built Atlantean which had been 7734 in the Greater Manchester fleet. Finglands by now were under the ownership of East Yorkshire Motor Services and were a major force in south Manchester. The company still thrives today, still unde the ownership of EYMS group.
