A free minibus shuttle was provided between Hascombe and Godalming, providing 9 return journeys a day (M-F), more than the normal service. On 29th August, the service was provided by Compass Bus Transit VA61BFN; the label reads 'Hascombe to Godalming shuttle bus'.
I was bored installing some display drivers for Windows and had a rummage in my draw to see if there was anything interesting in there. I found this old compass and decided to take a picture to try out my new Tamron 70-300mm lens.
People said to me when I was considering buying this lens, "Why put such a cheap lens on your camera?" My intention was to get a cheap lens for occasional shooting. But I really like this! I'm not sure a lens costing £600 more would have given a result 6x better, it might have. This is good enough for me though :)
