This squirrel is so funny! The squirrels, for 2 decades, have always run across the trampoline, or sat on the pad for a minute, but we have witnessed this squirrel "playing" on the trampoline 3 times now! I've got to get some video & put it up. He acts like a cat with catnip when he's up there. He does flips, & jumps straight up in the air, & slides on his belly. It's hilarious!

Among the fondest memories from Marna's childhood are those from dance class. A few weeks ago, while driving to a birthday party for a friend of Paige, we noticed that our area now has its own little dance school. It turns out that they've been operating on a more informal basis until recently. Nonetheless, the sighting was something that we remembered to check back on.
One day, after Paige's pre-kindergarten class, she and Marna went over to the studio and enrolled Paige for lessons. Paige has always loved dancing around the house with mom and dad - especially since dad is 6' 7" and can hoist Paige to significant heights for thrilling moves. There's no hoisting here however, with the class tackling ballet first, and tap later.
No little dancer would be complete of course without her pink leotard and tutu.
It's too early to be sure if Paige's enjoyment of dance vis a vis the Daddy Express translates well into something more formal, but so far she is definitely showing interest. On the first day of class Paige remarked to the instructor that the tap shoes were too noisy. To which came the swift reply of "well now, that's why you're here isn't it?"

Further West we find another unidentified Class 47, this one is waiting departure from Newquay. It is August 1981 but the steam heating is on! I was never a 'basher', one Class 47 sounded very much like another as far as I was concerned back then, but a loco-hauled trip over the Newquay branch was always highly enjoyable.
Class 25 25135 is pictured in Crewe Works on October 16th 1977. The former D5285, it was cut-up in Swindon Works during August 1986.
The BR blue era. A Class 45 heads a matching rake of blue and white coaches south near Mexborough. Today, this view from Queen Street, would only show the two tracks nearest the camera and a lot of bushes.

Great Western Railway class 158 958 slows for the station stop at the tiny Avoncliff station, whilst working the 10.11 service from Cosham to Great Malvern. The station platforms are officially just 30 metres (98 feet) long and hold only one full carriage. With Selective Door Opening not being possible, the guard releases just the very front door to allow passengers to join and leave the train.
Avoncliff Halt opened in 1906, originally built of timber with no shelters and was designed for rail-cars only. Shelters were later provided, the one on platform 1 was blown down in the great storm of 1987 and the one on platform 2 was blown down in a 1990 gale. Both shelters have now been replaced.
The little station used to have a limited service and be a request only halt, these days it has a very regular service of 43 trains that call on weekdays and 18 on Sunday.
Class 47/0 no.47145 'Merddin Emrys' starts the journey at Rhymney with the 4S81 1820 Pengam to Coatbridge on the 4th April 1995. Note the rolls of aluminium on the leading wagons.
The British Rail (BR) Class 08 is a class of diesel-electric shunting locomotive. The Pioneer Class 08 No. D3000 was built in 1952 although it did not enter service until 1953. Production continued until 1962; 996 locomotives were produced, making it the most numerous of all British locomotive classes.
As the standard BR general-purpose diesel shunter, almost any duty requiring shunting would involve a Class 08. The class became a familiar sight at many major stations and freight yards. Since their introduction, though, the nature of rail traffic in Britain has changed considerably. Freight trains are now mostly fixed rakes of wagons, and passenger trains are mostly multiple units, neither requiring the attention of a shunting locomotive. Consequently, a large proportion of the class has been withdrawn from mainline use and stored, scrapped, exported or sold to industrial or heritage railways.
