Mayor de Blasio Announced Plans to Expand Select Bus Service to 500,000 More Bus Riders, Speed Bus Routes Citywide
Beautifully simple - the cover to the City of Birmingham's 1950 handbook - with embossed lettering and the city's famous coat of arms along with the motto "Forward" - the proud boast of the then "workshop of the world". I recall the coat of arms everywhere! - street lamps, buses, council buildings - even on the front of all my school exercise books - civic pride.
A modern view of an open-top bus near Oxford station. City Sightseeing franchisee Tappins of Didcot uses both the typical red livery and this green colour scheme seen on 59 (T115 DBW), an Alexander bodied Dennis Trident new to Oxford Bus Company for park and ride services. When new it was part of the first batch of low-floor double-deckers in the city; 18 years later, having never moved away, it's among the oldest buses to found here.
BST, for me, the start of spring, a bright morning, cool, but with light airs, a very pleasant day, too good to be inside.
Dunnet Head, Caithness, Scotland.
The quilted patterned sky caught my eye, as we moved on down the rural two-lane highway. The trees at right made a nice addition. Looks cold, and it was a mite.

It's been a rollercoaster of a 2015 for me, with so many changes, which sadly in part have limited my uploads and trips for Flickr. However, I've got high hopes for 2016, with hopefully plenty to come! Thank you to all my followers for their continued support, I wish you all a very happy and prosperous new year!

www.flickr.com/photos/fastbird61/ was taking part of a pay it forward project and I was one of the lucky 5 to receive something from her. Now it is my turn to pay it forward to 5 people.
The idea is that you receive a handmade gift from someone and then you send handmade gifts (whatever you want it to be) on to five other people.
So if you would like to participate and receive something from myself, flickr mail me by the end of the day on Monday, July 6 with your home address. If there are more than 5 responses, I'll draw names to see who the lucky recipients will be, and then when those 5 receive their gift they pay it forward to 5 and so on. Sounds like fun, doesn't it?

I have just returned from my very first trip to Marrakech with my daughter. We chose Dar Bab Marrakech because of the T/A reviews on Dar Najat . Prior to my choosing Bab Marrakech I drove Oliver insane with email after email with question after question and he answered each and every question of mine honestly and with humour. Becaue of his pre booking service I chose his Riad and I was not disappointed. I was a little nervous in fact because Oliver told me that Dar Najat was full and that I could stay at the new Riad - Dar Bab Marrakech which was still being finished off and due to be completed just before we arrived. Anyway I decided to go with my gut and chose it anyway. I was not disappointed. We were fetched at the airport as arranged by Oliver by one of his colleagues, a driver, who was waiting for us when we arrived. Our flight was delayed by 2 hrs due to the strike over France but fortunately my daughter had her BB with her so I was able to advise them of the change of arrival time. The drive to the Riad took about 15min weaving through mopeds. The entrance to the Riad and I think most Riad's is not very exciting - in fact its rather offputting but once inside what a transformation. We were welcomed by Said and Amin and immediately offered a very welcomed breakfast. We were then shown our Rooms - we had 2 rooms and fortunately there were only 2 per floor. My room was absoloutely gorgeous as was my daughter's. I took the bigger one seeing as I had done all the negotiations and Mom's are allowed a little more space than their daughters. It was a very large room beautifully decorated in brown and black which I love, a large queen size bed with a little table and chair and some wardrobe space and then a beautiful large bathroom consisting of a large shower, toilet and hand basin. The Riad was quiet - we never once heard the "call to prayer" even though it was situated only 5 min. walk from the FNA. and surrounded by apparantely 3 mosques. Breakfast consisted of Moroccan pancakes with jam, orange juice, an omelette, a pain au chocolate and some fruit and fabulous coffee or tea. Service from Said in particular and from young Amin was excellent. They were always there to answer questions, accompany us to the FNA and one night showed us where the restaurant was that we had booked. The room was really comfortable and even though the Riad missed the jacuzzi that Dar Najat has, we were told we could use all the facilities at Dar Najat too . We went to see Dar Najat to look at the rooms but quite honestly I was happy that we were at Bab Marrakech as it was brand new and a little more spacious than Dar Najat with only 4 bedrooms. We never spend much time in the room only to sleep but we still like our comfort. We spent 3 nights there. The airconditioning worked beautifully and was certainly welcome. There was only one large disappointment for me. Oliver and I had become so friendly on the emails that I was so looking forward to meeting him and putting a face to the name but unfortunately he wasnt there as he had to go away - so I was really upset about that. He did try and make up for it though by giving us a bottle of French champagne and some lovely flowers as well as organising a fabulous dinner with True Believer which was wonderful as I can now put another face to a name. I would certainly recommend this Riad to anyone wanting a small and elegant homely place within 5 minutes walk of the mad medina.
I didn't even realize the time had changed until like 1 this afternoon when a co-worker mentioned it.

The Birmingham Magistrates' Court is a Magistrates' Court in Birmingham. It is currently in the Victoria Law Courts on Corporation Street
The Victoria Law Courts is a Grade I listed red brick and terracotta building that now houses the Birmingham Magistrates Court. It was designed by Aston Webb & Ingress Bell of London. It is faced in entirely deep red terracotta from the clay of Ruabon in North Wales.
The foundation stone was laid in 1887 by Queen Victoria, the year of her Golden Jubilee. It was built by Birmingham firm John Bowen and Sons. The court was opened in 1891 by the Prince and Princess of Wales (the future King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra).
Spotted that it said Forward on these parts of the Victoria Law Courts
