"no direction, I am a compass
constantly spinning
constantly searching for the end
never reaching our destination
but the goal was never when
or where
or who;
it was only you"

Compass Bus has expanded markedly from its Sussex base with an outstation at Dunsfold near Cranleigh. Not far away, in Cranleigh itself, e200 1116 SN66WKE heads through a dreary December morning.
Every Christmas a star is lit on Cabot Tower overlooking the city. This year there is a new one.

"Compass Rose," a mixed media piece. The background picture is a picture of -- wait for it -- garlic knot crumbs in olive oil -- and the top picture is a mirrored picture of a bridge. Both were edited from the mundane into bubblegum magicalness. What kind of world do you think this compass would be for?

The second 'Honk for Hope' UK coach event took place in Blackpool on 14/07/2020 and attracted around 200 coaches for a convoy along the M55 and along the Promenade before returning to the South Car Park at the end of Yeadon Way.
The purpose of the event was to raise awareness of the plight many operators currently find themselves in. The UK government has offered no financial help to coach operators due to the Covid pandemic almost wiping out their businesses.
The event was very well organised and attracted plenty of media coverage along with enthusiasts possibly enjoying their only event this year!

The Golden Compass is an anti-Christian movie, based on an anti-Christian book. I agree with this, having read and enjoyed all three books in the series. Note I say enjoyed. I’ve read all sorts of heretical books. They didn’t prevent me from eventually rejecting atheism and finding faith any more than the New York Times did.
Compass in particular is not just any sort of heretical book. It is Gnostic in its theology. The God of Christianity who created the world and angels and the carnal and spiritual natures of man is split, in the Gnostic conception, onto two gods: The Creator who begat angels and human spirits then withdrew from his creation; and the Demiurge who imprisoned the spirit sparks of mankind in gross matter and doomed them to hell while demanding worship as Yahweh. Gnosticism, then, reverses the moral relation between Lucifer the Lightbringer and Yahweh the Demiurge. Obviously this leads directly to Satanism and all sorts of dangerous moral choices. So the fact that Pullman went into Gnosticism didn’t phase me, for I had already encountered the glamor and falseness of the Gnostic worldview, and rejected it.
The Gnostic worldview, and its moral inversion, is also on display in National Geographic’s terrible mistranslation of the Gospel of Judas, a gnostic text that was published last year, and retranslated this year, reversing almost all the controversial conclusions.
And of course the whole conceit behind The DaVinci Code, with Jesus shacking up with Mary Magdalene and founding the Merovingian dynasty, was more Gnostic (in the sense of “hidden knowledge”) claptrap spawned from the same conspiracy theorizing that inspired Holy Blood, Holy Grail. It reduces Jesus to just an ancestor of a European King, rather than the Son of God, and is typical of the Arian heresy that has somehow found its resurgence not only in many modern-day Christian sects but also in Islam.
Back to Pullman. The book that the His Dark Materials reminded me of most was Job, by Robert A. Heinlein, which I read probably 20 years ago. The conceit behind Job is that God and the Devil have a wager over whether the protagonist will end up in Heaven or Hell. The twist is that Hell is actually a nicer place, run by a nicer guy, than Heaven.
I believe that one should find inspiration in the knowledge of what one opposes, not in remaining ignorant of it.

One of Compass Bus' relatively new Enviro200s, SN66WKC, passes along West St in Chichester yesterday.
This ex Newport Bus Dennis Dart SLF Plaxton Pointer is a surprise recent arrival at Compass Bus. KU52 YKV was new to Thorpes in London as a dual-door bus. It was seen in Lancing this afternoon 17th March, 2023, on a 16 service. Not a camera trick - the front destination was not working.
The Compass is a camp site at the northern end of the massive Finnskogen forest, great in summertime, more or less inaccessible in winter - Hedmark, Norway
