This is a flyer handed out by SELNEC, apparently this was supposed to be the SELNEC livery but executive decided that a white roof would be too difficult to keep clean, and the colours above the lower windows were transposed. It also shows the three divisional logos
In November 1997 the Cowie Group, which had acquired British Bus in August 1996, changed its name to Arriva and its bus operating division, Arriva Passenger Services, began trading on 1 January 1998. The individual liveries of of its operating companies were replaced by a new corporate identity. The new bus livery, designed by Ray Stenning of Best Impressions, was mainly Shimmering Aquamarine with an upswept Light Stone flash bordered in white at the front and a narrow yellow stripe above the skirt.
The new Arriva fleet name and logo were supplemented with a strap-line proclaiming the geographical area served by the buses. Most Midland Red North and Stevensons of Uttoxeter buses carried the strap-line "serving the north Midlands" but the initial intention was for Midland Red North buses at Crewe and Stevensons buses at Macclesfield to carry the strap-line "serving Cheshire". The latter strap-line was soon abandoned as Midland Red North and Stevensons were combined into a single company, Arriva Midlands North, from April 1998.
In January 1998 Midland Red North and Stevensons issued a leaflet to inform customers of the changes.

The last mission flown by RNZAF 6 Flying Boat Squadron on 8 September 1945, Wing Commander Smith and Flying Officer Regan dropped leaflets on Nauru and Ocean Islands.
Common wood sorrel flowers for a few weeks during the spring, with small white flowers with pink streaks. The leaflets are made up by three heart-shaped leaves, folded through the middle. The stalk is red/brown, and during the night or when it rains both flowers and leaves contract.
Growing in mixed deciduous woodland, Fairy Glen, Rosemarkie, Black Isle.
The leaves contain oxalic acid, which gives them their sharp flavour. Perfectly all right in small quantities, the leaves should not be eaten in large amounts since oxalic acid can bind up the body's supply of calcium leading to nutritional deficiency. The quantity of oxalic acid will be reduced if the leaves are cooked.

these are the Leaflets of the Mulga Tree
Acacia aneura, commonly known as mulga or true mulga, is a shrub or small tree native to arid outback areas of Australia. One of the few acacias with a long life. Mulga is a truly amazing plant. Among the acacias, many of which are relatively short-lived, it is a species with a long life. It is also a good fodder tree, its wood is valuable for a variety of purposes and the tree grows in many parts of Australia. In favourable conditions young plants will grow at a rate of 1 metre every 10 years until the tree reaches its maximum height of 10 metres. Reduced rainfall or drought conditions will slow down this process or bring it to a temporary halt, which means that a mature tree will usually be more than 100 years old. The counting of growth rings on felled trees has revealed the stunning number of 150-240 rings in stems of only 25 cm diameter. In their lifetime these trees would have experienced a number of drought years when no growth rings develop and therefore grew older in years than the exact number of growth rings indicate. The resourceful way in which the plant utilises every drop of moisture assists its survival to such a proud age. A sophisticated arrangement of its phyllodes and branches ensures that rainwater is channelled to the stem and onto the ground right to its deep taproot (seedlings of only 10cm height have been found to have taproots reaching 3m deep into the ground). To Aboriginal people in Australia Acacia aneura used to be one of the most important plant food sources.The seeds of the plant were separated from their pods by an elaborate process involving rubbing, threshing, parching and winnowing and the completely pod-free seed was then moistened with water and ground to an edible paste. A sweet exudation, produced by the plant after attack by a sap-sucking insect, was either sucked straight from the plant or dissolved in water to make a refreshing sweet drink. This was also eaten by early settlers who referred to it as "bush lollies". The so-called mulga-apples, swellings of the plant following insect activity, however, are inedible. Aborigines in the Northern Territory utilised the healing qualities of mulga in various different ways. People suffering from colds and flu-like illnesses utilised the healing qualities of young leaflets and twigs which were picked and immediately boiled in water. The brown, aromatic liquid was then used as a wash which could be applied as often as desired during the day. Headaches associated with colds could be eased by heating young leaves and twigs on hot ashes or hot stones until soft and scorching, when they were placed over the aching area. The plant could also be utilised for post-natal therapy believed to strenghten mother and baby. Leaves of the plant and small pieces of termite mound were layered over hot coals and the mother with her newborn child would lie down on top of a layer of branches and leaflets to sleep while the smoke and vapour passed over their bodies. In some areas, only leaves and twigs were used and no pieces of termite mound. To the stock of white pastoralists the tree provides shade, shelter and forage. Feeding, however, is not completely without problems. The high protein content of the foliage is not easily digested and this is probably due to a chemical reaction, occurring during digestion, between the leaves' tannin and the protein. After long periods of feeding on mulga, indigestible fibre balls have been found in sheep's rumen.
Mulga wood was used extensively by the early settlers. It was particularly valuable for fencing, the production of charcoal and for building bullock yokes and the multitude of uses lead to massive clearings of mulga in some areas, further compounded by the devastating impact of feral goats. The disappearance of mulga usually goes hand in hand with a spread of grasses, thereby leading to increased termite activity and this may result in greater erosion during dry times. Furthermore, disappearing Mulga decreases nitrogen levels in the ground, depriving other valuable desert plants of food. This is due to a symbiotic relationship between acacias and a nitrogen binding bacteria called Rhizobium. Naturally, mulga's normally long life plays a strong part in a staple provision of nitrogen. Acknowledging these qualities, efforts are made today to strengthen and increase the mulga population in may parts of Australia.
Scavenger Challenge- May 2017 Assignment - Texture in Foliage
Gift books were kind of like early coffee table books. They are chock full of illustrations and poems and stories of dubious literary merit. They were meant to be displayed and cherished.
Our copy of Leaflets of Memory is rather boss as it is inscribed to “La Belle Marguarite” from the Doctor who “hopes to have a page” in her life. Hot stuff in deed. Do you think Marguarite had to loosen her corset upon reading the dedication? Did the mysterious Doctor encounter Marguarite whilst taking a Tardis joyride to 19th century America? The world wants to know, gosh darnit!

This Titan Arum plant is in a leaf cycle. Most years, the spike grows into a huge leaf with complex leaflets.
The leaves gather energy from the sun and store it in the corm. It will need the energy to bloom.
The leaf falls over and dies after 12 to 18 months, and the plant becomes dormant again.

Virginia creeper or Five-leaved Ivy (Parthenocissus quinquefolia) is a woody vine native to eastern and central North America, in southeastern Canada, the eastern and central United States, eastern Mexico, and Guatemala, west as far as Manitoba, South Dakota, Utah and Texas.
It is a prolific climber, reaching heights of 20 to 30 m in the wild. It climbs smooth surfaces using small forked tendrils tipped with small strongly adhesive pads 5 mm in size. The leaves are palmately compound, composed of five leaflets (rarely three leaflets, particularly on younger vines) joined from a central point on the leafstalk, and range from 3 to 20 cm (rarely 30 cm) across. The leaflets have a toothed margin, which makes it easy to distinguish from poison-ivy, which has three leaflets with smooth edges.
The flowers are small and greenish, produced in clusters in late spring, and mature in late summer or early fall into small hard purplish-black berries 5 to 7 mm diameter. These berries contain oxalic acid, which is poisonous to humans and other mammals, and may be fatal if eaten. However, accidental poisoning is uncommon, likely because of the bad taste of the berries. Despite being poisonous to mammals, they provide an important winter food source for birds. Oxalate crystals are also contained in the sap, and can cause irritation and skin rash.
Virginia creeper is grown as an ornamental plant, because of its deep red to burgundy fall foliage. It is frequently seen covering telephone poles or trees. The creeper may kill vegetation it covers by shading its support and thus limiting the supporting plants' ability to photosynthesize.
Virginia creeper can be used as a shading vine for buildings on masonry walls. Because the vine, like its relative Boston ivy, adheres to the surface by disks rather than penetrating roots, it will not harm the masonry but will keep a building cooler by shading the wall surface during the summer, saving money on air conditioning. As with ivy, trying to rip the plant from the wall will damage the surface; but if the plant is first killed, such as by severing the vine from the root, the adhesive pads will eventually deteriorate and release their grip.
Native Americans used the plant as an herbal remedy for diarrhea, difficult urination, swelling, and lockjaw.
Also known as "Engelmann's Ivy" in Canada.

This is the cover of the leaflet for the combined timetables of Edinburgh bus routes 11, 15 & 16 and Tramway route 28 - and it is of interest in that it is the penultimate stage of tram abandonment in Edinburgh dated 12 September 1956. Tram route 28 would struggle on, with the 23, for another 8 weeks or so until 16 November 1956 when it would all end - except that hopefully in 2011 Edinburgh will have trams back, but not to Morningside!
The 11, 15 & 16 bus services still form the backbone of services to this part of south Edinburgh - and even the northern sections are broadly recognisable today, I do love the full title of the undertaking - "City and Royal Burgh of Edinburgh Transport Department", before it was slimmed down to the more 'snappy' Edinburgh City Transport'!
Dave asked for a scan of the leaflet that was shown with the VW buses, well, here it is.
