Took this on the road from Embo to Dornoch whilst out cycling last weekend (it was a long, steep hill so it was a good excuse for a rest).

Not often you see these two side by side in revenue-earning service... Volvo B10BLE Wright Renown YD02UMX is on Coastliner service 844 to Leeds and passes by 'flying lemon' Northern Counties Palatine 1 Volvo Olympian S56VNM on the 197 Raceday Special shuttle service for the racecourse. This was the saturday of the 2013 John Smiths Cup, the busiest day of York's racing calendar - and the queue for the 197 stretched well beyond the bus stops and halfway to the monument at the top of Station Rise.
Passing Green Lane's Wright Pulsar 3046 at morning rush hour today in Queen Square, Liverpool, is this brand new ADL Enviro400. Calling Bootle depot in Merseyside home, 4629 is from a batch of 16 and has been allocated to the 52. The luxury seating advertised on the rear are merely e-leather Esteban Civic's, but that is not to say that they are not comfortable. Free wifi is also included on these "smart new double deck buses".

Today was the culmination of a long road for my wife, my dear Karen Sue. It was her last day as a paid employee. She's retiring after 15 years as an elementary school teacher, 21 years working with volunteers, both as a gift shop manager and then director in a hospital, and two and a half years working as an activity director for a nursing home.
It was time to take a break.
Here, Karen is with Nicki, her assistant who is taking over as activity director. The card that Karen is holding has been signed by most of the staff and residents. As it says: "We will miss you!" that was the theme of the reception that was held at the home this afternoon. Lots of smiles and a few tears. Everyone sad to see Karen leave but happy for her.
Karen puts her whole self into the work she's doing, whether as a teacher, working with volunteers in a hospital or here as an activity director. Many nights would be spent working on a special project or some paperwork, or a report that just couldn't get done during the day.
We're looking forward to enjoying the next phase of our lives, my Karen Sue and I. Tomorrow is the beginning!
Here's to you, my wonderful bride, my partner, my love. You deserve a break today, and every day to come.

Radio City 96.7 (also previously known as City FM and 194 Radio City) is a British Independent Local Radio station, based in Liverpool, that serves Merseyside, Cheshire and North Wales. The station is owned & operated by Bauer Radio and forms part of Bauer's Place Network of stations.
==History== New Workers Mccawley Wayne Steven Donald Halliwell Age 17, Chris andy Jackson age 18
Radio City studios tower by nightLaunched on 21 October 1974 with Stevie Wonder's "You Are The Sunshine Of My Life" as the first song played, Radio City primarily broadcasts pop and dance music at a frequency of 96.7 MHz on the FM band from Allerton Park. Until 1989, it was also on 1548 kHz medium wave from a transmitter at Rainford, until it split its frequencies and launched a talk station on medium wave called City Talk - unusually it initially chose not to launch a Gold service on medium wave, despite the first generation of British Gold stations featuring many Liverpudlian bands and artists on their playlists. The medium wave frequency now carries its current sister station Magic 1548, from a transmitter at the former Bebington/Bromborough Power Station site. In the early days of Marcher Sound, the evening programmes of the station were simulcasted to the fledgling station, so for a period in the Eighties, Radio City had in theory, four frequencies (Marcher Sound occupied 95.4 MHz and 1260 kHz). The station is also webcast on its website. Originally based in Stanley Street in Liverpool city centre, in 2000 the station moved atop St. John's Beacon, which in the past was a revolving restaurant and viewing platform.
The 96.7 FM signal comes from the Allerton Park transmitter in south-east Liverpool, which also transmits Radio Merseyside on 95.8FM. There is also a transmitter in the Mersey (Queensway) Tunnel. There are also digital transmitters at St John's Beacon, Billinge Hill (in St Helens, which also carries Wish FM), and Hope Mountain (near Wrexham). The Billinge Hill site has the strongest digital signal.
On 9 November 2006, it was announced by Ofcom that Radio City had beaten competition from rival broadcasters to win a new FM licence for the Liverpool area. The new station, a 24-hour speech radio format named CityTalk, launched on 28 January 2008 and broadcasts on 105.9FM..Un Quote-:
Shot on the Malecon, the long seafront road in Havana I'd set the camera up on a tripod and waited for a passing car.
The grand old buildings that line the Malecon are in a particularly bad state of repair after years of exposure to the salt sea air but are gradually being restored to their former glory.

Taken today during a new year drive. I was planning to get more shots of the stunning scenery but it was blistery cold and started snowing, and frankly, my delicate head from a night which ended at 6am got the better of me.

The is a photograph from a set of photographs of the 15th running of the Fields of Athenry 10KM took place on Monday, St. Stephen's Day, December 26th 2016 at 11:00 in Athenry, Co. Galway, Ireland. Just under 1,200 participants finished the race today under the Medieval Arch in the town. The weather, for a change, was almost perfect for road running. While there was a stiff breeze into the face of runners for the first 4KM the conditions turned very pleasant and favourable for the final 6KM of the race with the winter sun also appearing.
This is one of the leading 10KM road races in Ireland. It is hard to believe that the race is "only" fifteen years old. It's superb organisation, atmosphere, and great race history gives it the characteristic of a race that is many years older. The credit for this goes to the wonderful athletics club in Athenry AC and the team of volunteers. The attention to every detail in the race which this year attracted over 1,200 participants means that the race has earned it's stripes as one of the leading road races in Ireland.
The race started at the Railway station and then took in a loop of the famous fields of Athenry where it turns left and begins it's return to the town, passing the soccer club, over the railway lines, and finishing under the medival arch in Athenry town for a fittingly atmospheric finish to the race. Race HQ is in the Presentation College in Athenry. Post race showers, prize giving ceremony, and refreshments were provided in the College after the race.
We have a very extensive set of photographs from this year's event. The link to the full set of photographs on this Flickr photostream is here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/albums/72157676673218051. There are some photographs of the race start and photographs of the race finish from the 1st across the line until the 50 minutes finish time.

Please email petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com with the links to the photographs you would like to obtain a full resolution copy of. We also ask race organisers, media, etc to ask for permission before use of our images for flyers, posters, etc. We reserve the right to refuse a request.
In summary please remember when requesting photographs from us - If you are using the photographs online all we ask is for you to provide a link back to our Flickr set or Flickr pages. You will find the link above clearly outlined in the description text which accompanies this photograph. Taking these photographs and preparing them for online posting takes a significant effort and time. We are not posting photographs to Flickr for commercial reasons.

Let's get a bit technical: We use Creative Commons Licensing for these photographs
We use the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License for all our photographs here in this photograph set. What does this mean in reality?
The explaination is very simple.
Attribution- anyone using our photographs gives us an appropriate credit for it. This ensures that people aren't taking our photographs and passing them off as their own. This usually just mean putting a link to our photographs somewhere on your website, blog, or Facebook where other people can see it.
ShareAlike – anyone can use these photographs, and make changes if they like, or incorporate them into a bigger project, but they must make those changes available back to the community under the same terms.
Above all what Creative Commons aims to do is to encourage creative sharing. See some examples of Creative Commons photographs on Flickr: www.flickr.com/creativecommons/
I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets
