Three weeks in Marseille France, studying at EuroMed School of Management through my MBA program at PSU. Here are the pics of the events that went down when I wasn't in class.

Back in the old days, kit lenses were really quite good.

The Mackintosh House, Hunterian Art Gallery, Glasgow
The rebuilt house of the Scottish designers Charles Rennie Mackintosh and his wife Margaret MacDonald, refurnished with their work. The original house was nearby at 78 Southpark Avenue, where they lived from 1906 to 1914. It was demolished in the 1960s, but its interior was carefully documented and the features and furnishings preserved by the University of Glasgow, who owned the building.
Old Basher's Reunion, Rugby 2021
I met Llew (and fellow basher Tim Proudman) while we were studying at Kingston Polytechnic back in 1982. They gradually engineered me back into the railway scene which I'd semi-retired from at the age of 14 in 1976 to follow my newly acquired interest in aircraft, based around countless visits to Heathrow and Gatwick. You can see some of the fruits of these escapades at my alter-ego site here: www.flickr.com/photos/heathrowjunkie/
Whereas the 1970s had been taken up with 'spotting' locos, the 1980s introduced me to the 'art of bashing', or getting haulage for the uninitiated. This often involved travelling on overnight trains to try and be in the right place at the right time. Throughout the 1980s, we travelled around the country, chasing down our favourite locos, and this can be summarised as follows:
- 1982-90 Travelled down every line with a passenger service, ending with the branch line from Norwich to Sheringham
- 1982-88 Chased the Whistlers (Class 40s) around the north of England, culminating in the 'Indian Summer' of 1984, followed by chasing D200 around the country on various railtours into 1988
- 1983-90 Perfected the art of 'Vac bashing' (Class 50s to the uninitiated), with many a trip to Oxford for a pint, and extended trips down to the south-west
- 1986 Said goodbye to steam-heat and the 'Tip-Tops' (Class 27s) in Scotland in 1986
- 1982-89 Travelled on many a railtour, usually to combine decent haulage with rare lines if possible.
As well as the above, a few sidelines developed, including station hopping to build up a collection of Edmondson platform tickets before they disappeared in the late 1980s (I may upload some photos of these if there's any interest?) - Routemaster bashing around London (who could resist hanging off that back platform!) - another of my alter-egos here: www.flickr.com/photos/southallroutemaster/ - and hunting down rare real ales at many of the brew houses of London; who remembers the wonderful Firkin pubs?...
