back to not so sunny England..
Nice to be fully back to myself though even without the sun.
just been into town a bumped into three lads who I dance with. seems I couldn't walk a hundred yards with a "hello Helen" 😊
On the way back to Singapore, another brilliant sunset. I'm sure the other passengers were annoyed when I kept lifting the shade to see what the sun was doing. But it was worth it.
Restricted to the Santa Marta mountains of northern Colombia, this hummingbird is considered endangered due to deforestation, burning and over-grazing, even though its range largely overlaps with the Santa Marta National Park. It lives in humid, elfin forests and páramo from 2000 m to the snow line at 4600 m and feeds on flower nectar and insects which are caught in the air or gleaned from leaves. We were very fortunate to see this single male, feeding at the hummingbird feeders at El Dorado Lodge.
IC 3100 and 9619 are seen with a test version of the IC's new black paint scheme. The units would head up a passenger special originating in Homewood. 10/03/87--Paul Meyer photo
122 and 123 were coach seated single door buses, while 131 is bus seated and dual doored. The batch was 122 - 131 (E122 DRS - E132 DRS), Note that 122 & 123 had a higher set and smaller upper deck emergency exit door, to allow for the higher backed seats, while 131 has the standard bus style emergency exit. The latter is preserved in "as delivered" GRT livery.

Finally they got the message, thanks for changing it back to a better format and no black page to squint at,
My Sunday Sunset outing at the harbor.
A view that typifies the narrow back streets of the larger cities in Malta. There is usually plenty of colour, most houses sport colourful balconies, everything is built of warm sandstone and Land Rover Defenders are still plentiful.
During the last week I showed you my kinky side, but I do like business looks too. I love to look like a professional and reliable person.
Playing catch up with my photos,
This is what I wore last Wednesday to lessons, As it was blooming hot I decided to wear a dress with blooms upon it,
Have to fess up I didn't wear the petticoat to dance in as it was a little to hot for too many layers,
Had a good class though now things are starting to feel more natural

Here's the back of the bag partner. The heart is my first attempt at paper piecing- I really like the technique!
At the moment I'm in Singapore, and I have taken this pic just few hours ago. Processing them only by my old notebook is very long...hopefully I'll be able to show more in the next few days.
Sorry for uploading these guys twice in under a month, but I gave some of them back-packs (grey, but brown if I didn't have any) and Milan's decals.
After arriving back in Ringwood from the first trip of Steamrail's Ringwood shuttles, Steamrail's train was forced to be moved into the yard as a result of one of the five wooden carriages striking a piece of overhead wire infrastructure
The K's then spent a further few hours in the yard, with all remaining shuttles ultimately being cancelled, before the locomotives were given the green light to return back to Newport light engine, resulting in a rather unique tender-to-tender move on the mainline!
After spending a day in the yard at Ringwood, Steamrail's K100 (K153) & K183 make a return to Newport with 5 carriages less than they came with that morning. The K's are seen dropping down into the station at Nunawading on light loco move 0568 bound for Newport Workshops. 8/5/22
The carriages took a further few days to return to Newport, with an inspection of the train being undertaken by Metro Trains finding the carriages were not at fault for the incident. In the days after this the carriages were then finally returned to Newport by a V/Line N class.
Back home inspired by the lovely nature !

The cows simply lined up at the hill top, I had to take this shot...
-
Probably there were more cows over the hilltop, but I had to rush to shoot at the wind turbines farm before sunset.
I will post the wind turbines shots in the next few days.

The back tracks of Hanoi, Vietnam. Reflections of reflections in the wake of new directions; remembering the beginning of a journey, and how if you were to never have set out than you would disappear from that scene before your eyes as if you were never there. But that scene before you, has become your reason for having made it so far, and your reason to keep going; the beauty of an afternoon and how it can become everything you stand for.
