because he got on the wrong bus !!! We were on the bus to transport us down the gravel road to the next bus which entered the ''big cat safari'' ( where we were caged in the back with holes in mesh for camera) and 6 or so lions roamed free around you. As this vehicle pulled up at the stop, this chicken jumped off and despite lots of encouragement refused to get off.
The park rangers kicked him off at the next stop, or he would have been lion food !! and he will have had to hitch a ride on another bus back to the top again !! lol - he clucked all the way, about 3/4 mins as if singing, so funny, whilst all the time stood on this pole as it gently rolled back and forth with the movement of the bus !!

With the Union Pacific's Milwaukee Sub slammed with trains the M PRPR was dispatched down the wrong main between CP Bryn Mawr and Proviso. One more shot couldn't hurt right? Traveling at a restricted 17 MPH the SD40-2 rebulid leads the two Dash 8's on the Sunday M PRPR train passing over Green Street.

Yesterday Jim wanted to go to the health club. I didn't feel up to exercising so took Little Burrito inside for a visit. Here he is showing off his style and grace on a treadmill. I am going to have to start taking video and then extracting a frame in order to get a decent pic of him. He is far too busy for still photos in an environment like the health club -- too many machines to explore and too many people to greet!
Wrong Way Corrigan was an American aviator who flew from New York to Ireland back in the late 1930s. He had filed his flight plan to show he was flying to California and claimed he had made a navigational error. Makes a nice story but apparently nobody much believed it because he was an experienced pilot, but he never wavered from his "that's my story and I'm sticking to it" stance:-))
If I take a photograph of someone and they ask me to delete it for reasons of privacy, I'll happily comply. If they try to stop me taking photographs and prevent me from leaving, they'll get everything they deserve.
This man was one of a group of seven people who detained us for taking photographs "illegally".
This is a video still.
I recently took out my Canon 50mm f1.8 LTM lens and noticed it had developed an awful haze on one of the inside elements. Maybe outgassing from some lubricant I applied las time I worked on it? Not sure.
Fortunately it's fairly easy to work on. Just remove the trim ring and the front element with a rubber cup, and then carefully clean the element behind the aperture with a pointy cotton swab. Much better now!
This lens came in poor condition with a Canon rangefinder body I bought years ago. I have had it apart a couple times to clean the glass, lubricate the helicoid, and retouch the matte black paint inside the lens.
P1840935 - I was always told this was the original school house in Heathenstreet (16th Century) now Havenstreet. The small hamlet was considered to be in control of what is now Ryde, some three miles away. The ecclestical parish was formed from Arreton and Newchurch in 1853, some 22 years later the railway arrived, in 1892 the Ryde and Haven street councils joined and built a larger single room school house opposite. This were I may be wrong, in the sense that above (now converted to a dwelling) may have been something else, perhaps a chapel (but the dates are all wrong). The image below shows Havenstreet and Ryde School board 1896, four years after the building above. The Victorian era saw huge population booms, perhaps there was no statistics and another larger building was built or there was political going on's to join the two parishes together (Havenstreet and Ryde).
Ryde the now larger town did not really change from a small fishing village until the end of the 19th Century, made popular by sail powered boats collecting fresh water from Monkton Mead, this included the first fleets that sailed to Australia all 1,030 of which 753 were Convicts & their children!
The school house below was in use up to a few years ago and certainly was a single group school house with children from the legal attendance age (5) up to 11 year old. Now a community centre.
The whole education age thing has been turned inside out, the Isle of Wight Education unit has followed central governments requirements and now there are huge school units on one site. The school units are now in a two stage set 5-11, 11-16 (I think), which aligns to pre the 11 plus exam system (which was remove due to incompatibility of little people of those age groups). The logic may be based on the decline in children of school age, aligning to the post war peaks of baby boomer's, the boomer's-boomer's and now their off spring with smaller family in recent years.
The third picture in the series relates to the school used in the Havenstreet catchment area. This makes we wonder if free transport is provided. Some legal requirement to transport children to school who lived more than three away from the school. Or the flocks of urban assault vehicles containing one or two children with the yummy mummies, driving like they are in charge of a tank crushing the revolution every morning and afternoon. Most think they are driving a Hummer or something that wide or wider........ok for another day before I drift off topic.

I was driving around at night and saw this. I'm still not sure what grabbed me, but here it is. It almost looks like it's in a diorama in a natural history museum. I'm sure the metaphor will come to me after a while. That's how it usually happens.

Hampshire Bus Bristol VR number 3344 is seen dropping down from Faberstown towards Ludgershall on January 14th 1987. Severe snow had made many roads impassable that morning,but as gritting-lorries got to work the situation improved throughout the day. Although NEL 118P is indicating Andover it is actually Salisbury bound. So it raises the question as to weather, (incorrect spelling intends pun) it turned around before Andover as it couldn't get through, or the driver forgot to change blind.
this time we have moved to just before the turn into High Street from Mardol Head and seen 1404 M404EFD a Scania with East Lancs that was acquired for the Meole Brace Park and Ride again 9.7.99.

Puffins galore on Staple Island, one of the Farnes. This one seems to have changed its mind, it flew in with the fish (its hole just below) and then flew off.
ATCS lied to me. After showing me a lineup on the NS Bloomington District, and getting myself excited, the lineup suddenly switched to the UP Springfield Sub. A pair of catfish lead M-BNAS south past BN Target, Bloomington, IL.

ASHBURN, Va. -- It would be wrong to blame Monday’s loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Washington Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins. It would not be wrong to think he could have done more to help them win.
This wasn’t about stats: Cousins’ numbers were solid as he posted a 101.4 passer rating. But that also shows how unreliable that statistic can be, because it suggests a terrific game. That wasn’t the case as it does not factor in some missed chances.
But also keep in mind that Cousins led two scoring drives at the end of the half and the game for 10 of their 16 points. He completed nine-of-12 passes on third downs, converting five into firsts (they had five third downs where they needed at least 10 yards). Cousins didn't lift the play of others and played a rather pedestrian game, but the main issue offensively remains the running game.
Here’s a little look at his game overall:
Throw I liked: The completion to Pierre Garcon on third-and-14. For starters, the line gave him time to throw against a three-man rush. Cousins looked middle, right, middle, left and back to the middle where he saw Garcon break over the middle for a first-down catch. The throw was a little behind Garcon, but give Cousins credit for hanging in the pocket and finding him. Also liked the 23-yard gain to Garcon when Cousins hit him in stride; well-designed play cleared out the middle. There were a couple bad throws in the game, sometimes with poor footwork. But other times he kept plays alive, sliding outside or scrambling with his eyes still downfield.
Throw I almost liked: This one looked a little dangerous initially, but I credit Dallas cornerback Mo Claiborne for a good play. But Cousins nearly connected with Reed down the left seam. It was a very tight window and Reed got his hands on the ball. But Claiborne, aligned to the outside with Matt Jones in his area, cheated a little to the inside paying more attention to Reed. With Reed a favorite target, perhaps in that situation it might have been better to have a different receiving option alongside Reed, just to keep Claiborne from paying more attention to the tight end. He’s the one who knocked the ball loose.
Missed chance: This one had to bug Cousins and the coaches. On a third-and-7 in the fourth quarter, Jackson had a half-step on cornerback Brandon Carr with no safety over the top. Not sure why, but Cousins seemed to look there, but did not make the throw, instead dumping to the right for Chris Thompson and a two-yard gain, setting up a missed field goal. For those wanting more downfield throws, the Redskins did go deep on two other occasions, both incomplete, to Garcon and Jackson. Both were in one-on-one situations to the outside, and both were missed by less than a yard.
Second chance: Cousins, of course, did go back to Jackson with a perfect ball for the 28-yard touchdown. It wasn’t the same play; this time Jackson ran a go route from the No. 2 receiver position (the middle of three wideouts on the right side).Jackson released to the outside and, with the safety aligned on the left hash (where the ball had been placed), there was no help.
Missed chance, part 11: On a first-and-10 in the second quarter, Jamison Crowder was in the slot to the left. His man blitzed, leaving him solo with the safety. Crowder gains leverage and a shot was there, but Cousins threw to Jackson on that side for seven yards. They still got a field goal, but Crowder had a step.
Against tendencies: The Redskins gained 20 yards on a bootleg pass to Crowder, thanks in part to breaking tendency. They had Tom Compton at tight end and Ryan Grant at receiver. In the past two games, that has meant run on 12 of their 15 plays (and 18 out of 27 for the season), according to ESPN Stats & Information. That’s one reason both safeties were within eight yards before the snap (dropping to a single-high look afterward). Two linebackers ran with Reed as he crossed to his left, leaving a gap for Crowder, against man coverage, on the bootleg. Earlier in the half, the Redskins threw with both Grant and Compton in the game on a bootleg to the left, hitting Reed for 16 yards.
Not sure about: A third-and-17 in the first half on which Cousins looked at Reed the whole way and then threw incomplete on an out route. If Reed had caught the ball, he would have been tackled well short of a first down. On the other side, Garcon ran a deep-in and was open at the 32-yard line for a first down. Now, I don’t know if Garcon should have been part of the progression or not (not every receiver is on every play; there were three targets to the left). If not, against this coverage they might want to add him or at least peek his way.
