man waits at bus stop - can only mean one thing - COLLECTION THREAD :)

[gm]

 

my journey starts here

[gm]

wallyford sounds interesting but I'm not going all the way there

[gm]

 

bang on time !

bonus mondeo spotted at the bus stop

 

(why are the pics all sideways ?)

[gm]

 

from my vantage point upstairs on the 44 bus, I can see such wonders - there's usually a third jag parked in there - this guy is clearly a winner !

[gm]

 

this is rapidly turning into a spotted thread - ONE LIFE etc

[oldcars]

Yes local collection thread. Watching with interest. Amazed at the lady in the first photo she seems to be defying gravity.

Edinburgh's fashionable new trams ! so handy if you are not in a hurry to go to the airport (the bus is quicker) !

[gm]

time to make a withdrawal

my mate had some money invested in the firm that invented those digital bus stop timetables.

 

He's just taken delivery of his V8 Atom, which he has parked between his Aston Martin & his Ducatti.

 

Still, that means he hasn't got any room left for an MGF, has he? Pretty foolish of him, IMHO.

have I walked into a phone shop by mistake ? very modern (still a big queue though)

[gm]

Yes local collection thread. Watching with interest. Amazed at the lady in the first photo she seems to be defying gravity.

[gm]

[oldcars]

Looks like you have gone into an Apple store to take out cash. 

My guess is Musselburgh for a collection?

[gm]

still queuing :(

 

also bursting for a piss

[minolman]

Maybe the management behind the tram system now work at the bank?

[gm]

I suspect that branch is managed by mickey, Donald, huey, Dewey and lewie !

 

anyway, cash monies finally acquired, time for some sustenance

[Junkman]

could be getting localler - I'll be leaving town soon

 

It's a 740 in Bournemouth?

[gm]

 

yes I do but all that fannying about in the bank has left me with very little time for the next journey

[gm]

 

mmm, sausage rolls

[oldcars]

Posted Today, 1.08pm

 

I now have massive heartburn from that greigs meal 

[gm]

grumpy driver wouldn't let me on his bus with my 'picnic' stuff him I'll wait for the next one

[gm]

 

stage 2 commences (stage 2 was supposed to be complete 20 minutes ago - thanks rbs)

[gm]

leather seats - very comfy - but the wifi doesn't seem to be working

[brickwall]

go on.....

[gm]

 

not much spotting done from this bus (although the gravity defying smart car driver was pretty)

[gm]

spoiler alert - the subject of this collection may be a disappointment to some of you (boring modern car) - but I'm enjoying the journey anyway

[gm]

costs so far :

 

bus into town £1.50

heartburn lunch £2.60

bus out of town to mystery destination £4.80

[Junkman]

Modern?

So it's a 940 and not a 740?
