Apparently a group of Tigers is known as an Ambush... this seems very appropriate as these two Leyland Tigers were both late entrants to this year's Workington Transport Heritage Trust's LN51 event held 29-30th April 2023.
Here we see the pair of Leyland Tigers; C131HJN an immaculately restored example with Plaxton Paramount 3200 body, contrasting with EKA220Y which carries Duple Dominant IV Express coachwork. The pair are parked at the Former Leyland National bus factory which had closed 40 years ago.
Back in the early 1980s, Leyland had high hopes for its Leyland Tiger chassis to fight off the increasing competition from European coach manufacturers... the pressure was also on for England's two main coach builders, Plaxton and Duple from their European counterparts.
Unfortunately, whilst the Tiger was undoubtedly a poplar and successful chassis it was not enough to save Leyland from being take over in the last 80s by which time Duple had also succumbed... Fortunately Plaxtons, after a number of takeovers, still exists as Britain's largest producer of coach bodies one a variety of chassis.
[...] Denn was wir sind, hat noch niemand verstanden
Und was du fühlst, passt in keinen Gedanken
Und wer du bist, wirst du niemals ergründen,
wenn du nur tust, was sich andere wünschen.

I drive by this little church frequently in the valley that I live in and am reminded of my faith in Jesus by these crosses.
I have never cared for the phrase "Jack of all trades master of none". It gives a compliment and at the same time takes it away. Just like the person who will never be satisfied with the skill that you have 'mastered'. I think the genius who originated that phrase must of been having a bad day. All it takes is to have only one person that you made happy in the performance of one of your skills to realize that you have become a *Master*... then you have become *Master* of *Yourself*.
From: I Believe In Magic... Day 5 is this partial poem by David Whyte regards *Trust*...
Start right now
take a small step
you can call your own
don’t follow
someone else’s
heroics, be humble
and focused,
start close in,
don’t mistake
that other
for your own.
Start close in,
don’t take
the second step
or the third,
start with the first
thing
close in,
the step
you don’t want to take.

-Death and All of His Friends.
Lord teach me to be patient.
Teach me to wait.
Teach me to endure.
Teach me to fight.
Teach me peace.
Teach me honor.
Teach me wisdom.
Teach me to see.
Teach me to listen.
Teach me to be fearless.
Teach me to face it.
Teach me to trust.
Teach me your will.
Time is too precious to waste it all away.

Vindolanda was a Roman auxiliary fort (castrum) just south of Hadrian's Wall, which it predates, in northern England. Located near the modern village of Bardon Mill, it guarded the Stanegate, the Roman road from the River Tyne to the Solway Firth. It is noted for the Vindolanda tablets, among the most important finds of military and private correspondence (written on wooden tablets) found anywhere in the Roman Empire.
...so..this is the little lady who showed up last winter as a little tiny kitten in the midst of a 5 degree F cold snap.
Before long she was inside looking out!
At 6'5" I tower over this tiny creature. I am pretty sure my FEET weigh more than she does.....I am ever so careful not to step on her......and yet when I reach out for her, she does THIS....no flinching, no running under the sofa; far from it :)
Not sure how I earned her trust but I am happy it is there....cats are good for people!
I like to thank you all my flickr friends around the world whom some I'm yet to meet... for the inspiration and the lasting impact that you have made in my journey...

I don’t believe in angels,
But I trust them.
I don’t believe in destiny,
But it follows me everywhere I go,
I don’t believe in heaven,
But respect the rain, when it pours!
I don’t believe in tears,
But I trust the comfort they bring me.
I don’t believe in fear,
yet trust a winding road
For it may some how
Lead me to a crimson wave.
I don’t believe in a pitiful gaze
that bring me down
But I trust a reaching hand
to help me stand up.
For I “believe” that “trust”,
will someday save me…!

Looking to the side of the main house that looks out to the South . Behind where I am standing the ground drops away into a valley and is quite a suntrap ( when it shines of course !! ) .
‘This is a delicious house…’ remarked Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, on her honeymoon at Polesden Lacey. This country retreat, with glorious views across the Surrey Hills, was home to formidable Edwardian hostess Mrs Greville. Marvel at the glittering Saloon, designed to impress kings and maharajahs, or admire her extensive art and porcelain collections.
There has been a house at Polesden Lacey since at least the C12 but the first house whose appearance is known was built for the Rous family and completed by 1631. The estate was purchased by Arthur Moore, an economist and politician, in 1723 and his son, William, extended the house between 1735 and 1748. The Moores probably began the construction of the Long Walk or Terrace, which overlooks the park. The Sheridan family purchased the estate in 1797 and the house was in ruins by c 1814, when Richard Brinsley Sheridan, the playwright and politician, pulled most of it down with the intention of rebuilding it. However it was left to Joseph Bonsor, a stationer and bookseller, who purchased the estate in 1818, to rebuild the house to the designs of Thomas Cubitt. Bonsor was also responsible for planting thousands of trees, and renovating the garden, park, and estate. Sir Walter Farquhar purchased the estate in 1853 from the Bonsor family, and he enlarged the house between 1853 and 1870, preserving most of Cubitt's structure. Farquhar's house was in turn rebuilt in 1903-5 by Ambrose Poynter for Sir Clinton Dawkins, a civil servant and financier, who owned Polesden Lacey between 1902 and his death in 1906. Mrs Greville and her husband, Captain the Hon Ronald Greville, bought Polesden in 1906 and commissioned Mewes and Davis to alter the house. Ronald Greville died in 1909 but Mrs Greville continued to own Polesden Lacey until 1942, during which time she entertained Edward VII and other members of the royal family there. The Polesden Lacey Estate was bequeathed to the National Trust in 1942, and the house and garden were rearranged for public opening. The National Trust continue (2000) to own and manage the estate.

Essentially, an organization’s behavior in a number of different areas acts as a “trust filter” - positive actions let trust flow through while negative actions block trust.
