Took some photographs of Oxford on a recent visit there.
Cambridge in December
On a recent trip to Cambridge took some photographs of the city and some of the colleges.
Routemaster
I was in London and driving down Fleet Street was an old London Routemaster bus.
I was curious was TFL now running a Heritage route using the quintessential Routemaster red bus.
A quick Google search revealed this:
There’s a new vintage bus service for Central London. Route T15 links Piccadilly Circus, Trafalgar Square and the Tower of London. Fares for all-day use are £7.50 for adults (including seniors), £5 for children and £20 for groups of four. It’s not a TfL service, so you can’t use Oyster cards
So it’s not TFL, but certainly a nice idea to relive what it was live taking the Routemaster around London. It must be popular, as when I saw it again, it was packed.
Donkey Rides £3.50
Weston in December can be damp.
The Little Cars of Amsterdam
On my recent visit to Amsterdam I saw lots of small cars, quadricycles, oh and a trike.
They seemed very popular with young and old alike.
West Somerset Railway
Over the years I have visited and travelled on the West Somerset Railway many times. When we stayed at Butlins we would often walk down to Minehead Station and look at the stream trains. Looking back I realised the last time I had actually travelled on the railway itself was back in 2013. So last week we went to Bishops Lydeard and caught the train to Minehead.
Ford Popular
This lovely Ford Popular was seen on a recent walk in Milton in Weston-super-Mare.
Walking in Worlebury Woods
Lynton
The last time I was in Lynton and Lynmouth was in September 2020, at the height of the pandemic. The previous visit was way back in 2011.
It was a sunny dry day and we headed to Lynton and Lynmouth.
This time I took the coast road and drove along the A39, past Minehead towards our destination. The road into Lynmouth is quite steep and narrow, but we got there in the end.
Parking was a challenge, but we did find a space. We took a walk around Lynmouth.
After popping into shops, and stopping for a disappointing cup of tea we headed up the hill to Lynton.
