Today's shot is something I found in my archive and wanted to share. Do you remember when paper sellers sold newspapers outside transport hubs, or handed out free time fillers to see commuters through the ride home. Now we get our fake news from multiple devices and paper sellers have got proper jobs in the gig economy. Now isn't that a change for the better?
yay for snowdrops - just watching those cute little messengers of spring makes me happy.

Overnight snow transformed the landscape. Seen just a couple of hours ago outside Ballinrobe, Co. Mayo, Ireland. The sheep, dumb as they are, couldn't care less about the weather.

It's amazing that the amount of news that happens in the world every day always just exactly fits the newspaper. - Jerry Seinfeld

Using a magnifying glass to highlight certain parts. Today's Age Newspaper along with a toy Christmas soldier. This magnifying glass has 2 parts - a larger green less magnifying part and a smaller green higher magnification. One of the reasons I like eBooks is that you can change the font size very easily for ageing eyes! HSoS this hot summers day in Melbourne
Excerpt from www.insidehalton.com/news/metrolinx-new-drury-lane-pedest...:
The new Drury Lane pedestrian bridge opened to the public Oct. 31, 2025 after almost eight months of construction and five weeks behind schedule.
Andrea Ernesaks, Metrolinx senior media relations manager, confirmed on Monday, Nov. 3, the new pedestrian bridge connecting Drury Lane to Orpha Court over the railway tracks will stay open. It is safe for use by cyclists and pedestrians, while “minor finishing works will be taking place over the coming months.”
Anticipated work in the area during the next four to five months, according to a notice on the Metrolinx website, includes landscaping and restoration to the construction area.
Metrolinx started the project with demolition of the original 53-year-old bridge on March 7. An original Sept. 26 opening was delayed.
Burlington cycling advisory committee member Corey Finnigan said he rode over the new bridge for the first time Tuesday, Nov. 4.
“The ramps are not as steep as they were and the corners are 90 degrees instead of 180. So overall the bridge is much easier to navigate on a bike or with a stroller or shopping cart,” Finnigan stated in an email.
He said he’s happy he can once again cross the railway at Drury Lane and Orpha Street rather than having to use busier Burlington streets.
Finnigan said he’d assess how slippery the new bridge deck is once some snow and ice is added this winter but “so far, under dry and well-lit conditions, the new bridge is wonderful.”
The Metrolinx website noted a single bridge upgrade may not seem like a big deal, but the crossing provides “a vital connection point” to surrounding neighbourhoods.
“The new and improved structure will not only help residents and customers better access nearby Burlington GO Station and local amenities, but it also provides a crucial link for students who cross the rail corridor every day to get to and from the local elementary school just south of the bridge,” the post stated.
Benefits of the new bridge:
1. Improved pedestrian access and safety across the rail corridor
2. Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act compliance
3. Allows for potential electrification infrastructure to be incorporated into the rail corridor in the future
