Sick Quarters

On the former WW2 Airfield of Station 166 Matching home to the 391st BG [M] USAAF 9th AF from 01/1944 to 09/1944.

This Nissen hut is one of two that were the 22 bed ward, on the former Sick quarters site. The scaffold poles on the wall are being used as a brace, as the wall is bowing out around the vent.

a project my husband is working on, all the wood lined up except the last point, not shown, when we made these. (I didn't help him when he screwed up) LOL

Much missed main line icon, 46203 and a rather nice collection of Mk 1s leaves Appelby in 1994.

 

No jiggery-pokery in Photoshop here.

  

Finally found a driver for this car... I thought of building an all light aqua minifig, but this BAM torso came in handy. I guess she could be a high schooler with her first car! :D

I bought these two dresses on ebay in separate auctions to have some blue dresses for a winter or Christmas scene. When they came I was thrilled to find out they match! They are from a Fashion Avenue set called Barbie & Kelly Matchin' Styles, from 1997. The original outfits also had matching purses and white shoes. I really love the tea length of Barbie's dress. I think they look pretty darn cute, don't you?

Having fun with my sister, sitting together and crossing our legs. We stopped fighting over the fact that we were wearing the same dress, and just accepted the we both looked good in it.

A little photoshop fun of Alana and me sharing the same dress. Today is a great day for both of us to be wearing lovely green dresses, and it would be great to celebrate in matching dresses.

With loads in tow 4 matching ex-NdeM E60's roll north around the big curve at Cow Springs and start off into almost no mans land with little access until Kaibito. Jim Pinkney and another railfan from Colorado can be seen shooting off the road that parallels the curve.

Just having a little fun with photoshop. This would be a little embarrassing showing up to a party in the same dress, but I think we both look great in this dress.

The flowers on my dress match the pub decor. How lovely.

Making the most of another sunny morning. I need to work on my tan but nothing much beats the joy of a skimpy top and matching heels paired with a pretty, swishy pleated skirt.

I always liked Alana's sense of style.

It may not have escaped your notice that the livery worn by Robertson Buses 107 matches that of the open top Stagecoach President 18550, as well as it being somewhat similar to 106. All three are based off vehicles from Newall Citybus – the semi-privatised municipal operator of a fictitious city in the south midlands.

 

Eventually I intend to increase the Newall fleet with some proper models of its own, but here the Darts are doubled up as RB fleet members and the President as Stagecoach so I can put them to good use doing other things (and because I haven’t designed any Newall Citybus logos yet). 106 is the only one here to carry the reg of a real vehicle as it’s ex-DM Transport (EA06 DMT) which would have been R123 OFJ from new.

 

The other two have registrations which are made up, but could have existed had the company been real. The open topper is V320 HBD, with a plausible area code, year, and the '320' relating to its original fleet number of 1220. Meanwhile 107 is X611 WNH, slightly newer and featuring another Northamptonshire reg code, and the '611' reflecting its original number 2611.

 

As I've previously stated, the President was new in 1999 in closed top form, part of a batch dedicated to Milton Keynes routes, which introduced the new ‘swoopy’ livery that was then adopted for further orders of low floor vehicles. It was rebuilt to open top after damage from a fire in 2002 and inherited by Stagecoach in 2006 when they bought out Newall Citybus.

 

Dart 107 [2611] was new in 2000 as one of six dual door examples bought for a route branded City Hopper. These were the first single deckers to carry the new livery for low floor buses, however for single deckers the livery was changed again to the style as carried by 106 as it was easier for the company to reproduce in their own paint shop. There wasn’t much consistency between the liveries around that time anyway, everything was just green, yellow and white in some application.

 

Plaxton bodies and Dennis chassis were clearly the order of the day for Citybus around the millennium, although the "on paper" fleet list does have them occasionally switch suppliers for the sake of variety.

I saw this mother and daughter walking along the southbank in London with matching coats and I thought it would make a nice shot.

I like that the colors of the common blue butterfly (Polyommatus icarus) are matching the backgroud colors. This butterfly was sitting on a fireplace close to the village where I grew up.

This is one of my first macro picture that I took more or less 18 years ago. I used a Nikon FM with a Nikon 50mm macro lens.
