When Local Link announced it was going to withdraw all its local bus services in Torbay after 1st April, no operator came forward to take over the 60/61 service between Paignton and Torquay. This service operates around a number of hilly estates between the two towns and its loss would have caused considerable hardship.
Torbay Community Development Trust (TCDT) stepped in at short notice to provide a replacement service from Monday 3rd April, using an Optare Solo SR with "Our Bus" branding, operating on a two-hourly frequency (the route had been hourly previously) and largely using volunteer drivers. A second Solo SR has now been acquired and KX15 BMU, in allover white and as yet devoid of fleetnames, is seen approaching journey's end in Torquay Road, Paignton on Tuesday 9th May, its destination display already set for the return journey - all journeys are now operated as service 60 (previously journeys towards Torquay were numbered 61).
TCDT has also taken the Mybus community bus operation in Brixham under its wing; this was started in September 2015 to operate evening buses over Brixham local routes 17 and 18/18a after Stagecoach had withdrawn these the previous March. TCDT is now thought to be looking to reinstate parts of Torquay local routes 64 and 65 which have not operated since Local Link pulled out at the beginning of April, and the loss of which has caused hardship at locations where there are no practical alternative bus services.

This is truly *our* park, our community's park. In its place, there used to be old abandoned fields and empty lands where lots of people would go for walks. About 30 years ago, the city decided that it would no longer be classified as liable to flooding, and that it would be open to construction. The whole neighbourhood rallied against that project, managed to get the decision revoked, and continued petitioning for a real park. The city accepted and launched a public consultation about what we wanted for the future park. The result is a wonderful place that's exactly what we wanted, with a children's playground, a wooden path through the bamboos, a big lake, picnic tables, places to lounge around, a little hill... They also kept some of the old clumps of trees and vegetation, giving the park a unique wild aspect in some places. It truly is the most beautiful park in the city, and that's because it was designed by the community, for the community.

Governor Phil Murphy holds conference calls on coronavirus updates with the department of health, school leaders, business community, and local and county officials on March 3, 2020 (Edwin J. Torres for Governor’s Office).
I spotted this at both the bike racks in the corner where I usually park at the central library. It demonstrates several important things about the Seattle bike community:
1) there is such a thing
2) its members are public-spirited enough to share information like this
3) there are many summer cyclists naive enough to use cable locks on expensive bikes. [I should mention that I was one once].
4) judging by reports on message boards, we do experience quite a high rate of bike theft, but it's pretty much entirely restricted to the low-hanging fruit of bikes that can be stolen without picking a lock.

Next up was an L33 from Bulwell to QMC - the service will be finishing at the end of next month, so I thought it'd be a wise move to take a trip on one.
FJ07DLU was our vehicle of choice for it, a Mercedes-Benz minibus - no idea what the exact details are, apologies. (If you know though, please leave me a comment below!)
It's seen here circling QMC awaiting a stop becoming available after arrival from Bulwell, and before going out to Phoenix Park at 1600.
All locallink vehicles are due for replacement shortly with Solo EV's.

CAMP ZAMA, Japan - Hundreds of Soldiers, Airmen, civilians and their families from the Camp Zama community kicked off Army Birthday Week with sports, games and tournaments designed to build camaraderie and esprit de corps throughout U.S. Army Japan Command. For five days dozens of units from the U.S. Army, U.S. Air Force and the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force will compete in various challenges to test their cumulative strength, speed, endurance and dexterity. From team sports, golf scrambles and swim relays to bowling tournaments, relay races and free throw competitions, the Army Birthday Week events offer a variety of team competitions and individual contests that maximize appeal across the entire sports spectrum.
The “Not in My Squad” challenge offered the most unique competition appearing in this week’s lineup. Nine representatives from Camp Zama’s Army and Air Force units endured a series of physically draining events spread along a three-mile route. The teams worked together to carry five-gallon cans of water to each event where they performed various exercises comprising hundreds of pushups, situps, pullups, tire flips and kettle bell curls. The challenge concluded with a role-play scenario that tested the teams’ cumulative knowledge about how to handle a sexual harassment incident.
A unit that wins first place in a specific event earns five points, while second and third place finishes earn three and two points respectively. Every unit that participates in an event earns one point.
As of June 15, 2016, U.S. Army Aviation Battalion maintains the lead with 35 points. The 441st Military Intelligence Battalion holds second place with 29 points and Medical Department Activity-Japan pulled into third place with 27 points. U.S. Army Japan (USARJ) remains in fourth place with 23 points. Since Monday USARJ has earned third place in the soccer tournament, second place in the "Not in My Squad" challenge, and first place in the swim relay.
On Friday, June 17, all teams will convene at the Camp Zama High School sports complex to compete to foot races and cheer on their comrades in the annual tug-of-war bout and soccer match between the JGSDF’s Central Readiness Force U.S. service members stationed Camp Zama.
