#With the sun shining and a busy market day I hit the town for a mornings street photography. I didn't check my camera bag and by accident i brought my F2 XF 23mm prime lens. This is batter for wider group shoots but not so good for getting in close. Still using a fuji film recipe "Pure Grit"
Here is the Smart Doll jewelry set that I made for the black dress. I especially love the colors this time. When making doll jewelry, 75% of the time is spent picking which beads to use. Seriously I go back and forth so many times on what to use it really takes a long time. 😂
My favorite peices are the set of 10 bracelets, I always love making many different kinds.

Taken in The Hague, in Holland.
It is quite a feature that display of Smart cars.
I photographed it from all angles, but this is my favourite; I like it because the bottom car seems to be parked in front?
The figure adds to the dimension!
Take care, be safe!
Thank you for your time and comments, greatly appreciated, M, (*_*)

Since I did not start work until 6pm and after going through Facebook in the morning I noticed a post of 20938 back in her new livery. So quickly jumped in the shower, got ready, grabbed the 1130 31 to town and a walk to the Western General Hospital I had about 15 minutes to wait.
Here is a very smart looking 20938 at Western General having a break before heading on another service 113 to Pencaitland. 17th March 2017.
One of the advantages of modern phones is the ability to download applications.
One such app is the Stagecoach bus tracker.
This enables one to track specific vehicles via live information, providing the journey details have been entered into the ticket machine.
To this end I determined that 47617, the first Lillyhall based Solo to receive the new livery, was operating the Keswick - Seatoller 78 service.
Lockdown meant that there was no way I could get to phot' it in the fabulous sunlit scenery of The Lakes but I was able to formulate a salvage mission.
With a reduced service meaning that one bus worked the day's entire diagram it was possible to determine what time it would return to the depot at the end of its shift by referencing the duty sheet of the driver who was working its last run. I was able to do this using a second app' rolled out for Stagecoach employees by the company.
Returning to the depot 47617 would pass within a mile or two of my house and so I would be able to plan my daily exercise to allow me to intercept it on the A595 at Winscales.
An extra bonus was that the driver did not sign out of the ticket machine in Keswick, choosing to wait until his return to Lillyhall, meaning that I could actively track it and set off on my bike at exactly the right time.
Bingo!
I understand that the manufacturer who supplies the fleetname transfers is currently closed.
Seen a long way from Preston, and still looking rather smart (the odd bit where vinyls were removed looking less tidy), is one of Yellow Buses' latest acquisitions. This comes in the form of a former Rotala PLC Gemini 2.
Yellow Buses' BX62 FUU (129) is seen laying over on Avenue Road, Bournemouth City Centre. Presumably it was either being used as a spare vehicle for the day, or laying over between school and peak extra runs. BX62FUU was new as one of four B9s new to Flights Hallmark's Wessex Connect operation. FUU carried the fleetnumber 40605. The four BX62 Geminis have been acquired by Yellow Buses (whilst still owned by RATP Dev), which is odd because they were only in use in Preston for a maximum of 10 months after being painted into their livery, whereas other Rotala vehicles have been in use in the wrong livery for longer. However, with Yellow Buses, they have become their 126-129, and join many other Geminis with the smart (now independent) company. I'm hoping they will be used to help increase the companies services, and not replace some of the older vehicles... 129 is a Volvo B9TL/Wright Eclipse Gemini 2.
First Wyvern's WX59 BZD (69450) is seen departing Bromsgrove Bus Station with a 144 back to Worcester Crowngate from Smallbrook Queensway, Birmingham City Centre. The 144/144A operate up to every 15 minutes between Worcester and Catshill, with an extension to Birmingham up to every 30 mins. WX59BZD was new in October 2009 to First Bristol. In December 2014, it was transferred to Leicester. The rather smart Volvo then found its way to Midland Red West's Worcester depot via Thornton Brothers, where it received a full refurbishment. It initially entered service "half dressed," until First relaunched the 144/144A as "Salt Road." 69450 is a Volvo B7RLE/Wright Eclipse Urban 2.
The Smart Roadster was introduced in 2003. It is powered by a 82 PS turbocharged 698cc 3-cylinder engine in the rear. In late 2005 production was stopped after some 43,000 were built.
When the first photos of Lothian 901 were seen I was not too sure on what to make of the "staircase" livery on a B9.
However, seeing it for myself today 901 looks very smart in her new livery. Seen today at Lochend operating on service 15 to Penicuik. 09th October 2017.

Nicolas Hayek, der Schweizer Gründer der Swatch-Gruppe, hatte 1994 einen Traum: Von einem Swatch-Mobil, das klein, günstig und vor allem mit einem umweltfreundlichen Elektroantrieb unterwegs sein sollte. Daimler-Benz realisierte 1998 die Vision – allerdings erst ab 2007 auch mit einem emissionsfreien Elektromotor.

She has figured out how to extract a drink of water from a hole in the rock, using the ends of a coconut leaf....
Here is the the other necklace I made for the set. I wanted to make a simpler one that wouldn't take as long to make. I'll have these available during my update in October.

Johnsons Coaches' YT13 HKZ is seen turning around in the Alexandra Hospital while operating a 350 towards Worcester Crowngate Bus Station. Until January 2018, the 350 was running as the 150 (extending from Birmingham City Centre). However, when the contract renewed, the services were split with one run in the morning which starts at the Maypole Shops and continues through to Worcester. This operates as a 150 and operates via County Hall. YT13HKZ was new in April 2013, as one of two OmniLinks to Johnsons of Henley-in-Arden. It carries the smart Johnsons Excelbus livery. Six months after the pair were bought, a further two new examples were acquired. The smart independent operator has also acquired a second hand example. HKZ attended Showbus in 2013, which was held near Stratford-upon-Avon, which isn't too far away from the Johnsons depot. It is a Scania CK230UB/Scania OmniLink.
Seen waiting time at Bank Square, Wilmslow is one of Wincham's ex-Goodwins Solos. The three vehicles have dummy airhorns on their roofs; unlike the E200s at Crewe that came from the same source, which have working airhorns.
D&G Bus' YJ60 KFE (129) is seen waiting time on Green Lane, Wilmslow before operating an 88 towards Altrincham Interchange. The 88 operates up to every hour between Altrincham and Knutsford Bus Station with 2 hourly extensions up to Macclesfield, with the alternative run hour continuing on as an 89 towards Northwich. YJ60KFE was new as one of five slimline Solos in September 2010 to Go Goodwins, as their SOLO6. These all came with extra side lights, smart interiors and fake air horns. It is an Optare Solo M880SL.
As a side note, the driver is sound as a pound!
