Borders Buses 11622 (YN16 CFU)

Elder Street/Edinburgh Bus Station, Edinburgh
Taken on 22/02/2020
This bus was new to Scania as a demonstrator.
I added extra width to the suggested single row border as I felt it neeeded a stronger physical as well as visual edge
Borders went into receivership & closed just before Christmas. The shop is empty, but for some reason the lights are on 24/7. I wonder who's paying their electricity bills?
At the time I captured this store, the Borders chain had already closed...although the shock of the fact was still taking its time to sink in.

My Border Collie Nic.
12 Months for Dogs - Since this month's theme is Ready, Set, Action, I decided that this would be a good time to share a video of my Nic. I love of all the details that can be seen in slow motion video. Fortunately for me, Nic is a very cooperative model! :-)
I am still thinking about what I will do for my photo for this month.
Borders Books' flagship Chicago location at 830 N. Michigan Ave. closed in January 2011, leaving the Magnificent Mile without a bookstore.
The border on. Still some work to do on the blocks.
Colour is not great (night time photo) but I HAD to share!!

My favorites:
In 1938 Czechoslovakia mobilized against the German threats of war, but hat to give in to the Munich Agreement and withdraw from the border fortifications, even if the army was fully capable to stand against the Wehrmacht. After this not only Germany, but also Poland and Hungary ripped pieces of land from the country, and there were also extensive fights with insurgents, which cost lives of many Czechoslovak soldiers and gendarmes. Today it´s a tradition to reenact how the situation could be, when we would have defended ourselfs. It´s a fact that Hitler was affraid of the Czechoslovak military, which at that time had better tanks, more heavy guns, and a very effective fortification system. Of course we win in the reenactments :-)

Benvenuti nel nuovo millennio
Due anni dopo questa sparatoria nella scuola [Columbine], le Torri gemelle di New York crollarono come castelli di sabbia.
Questo attacco terrorista uccise tremila lavoratori.
Il presidente George W. Bush ricevette, così, la licenza di uccidere. Proclamò la guerra infinita, la guerra mondiale contro il terrorismo, e poco dopo invase l’Afghanistan.
Questo altro attacco terrorista uccise tremila contadini.
Vampate, esplosioni, grida, maledizioni: scoppiavano gli schermi della televisione. Ogni giorno ripetevano la tragedia delle Torri, che si confondeva con gli scoppi delle bombe che cadevano sull’Afghanistan.
In un paese sperduto, lontano dal manicomio universale, Naùl Ojeda era seduto per terra accanto al nipotino di tre anni. Il bambino disse: “Il mondo non sa dov’è la sua casa”.
Stavano guardando delle cartine.

Can we learn from trees (!) about border conflicts, possession, land use?
Some historians say our original sin was to take land as possession (agriculture). Trees protect themselves and their families, but accept continuous change around them. And they literally live on the land..
A patch here, there, its all natural :-)
