Second one, Mike

You can't rush the NHS, mate. It's only 5 weeks since I saw quack1 so it's much too early for a proper diagnosis. Stab-in-the-dark-number-one didn't work

I'm supposed to be seeing quack2 this morning (he promised that today we might be doing some thinking outside the box

) but now the weather's turned good he'll most likely be at the golf course ...
I should be out there on the bike snapping some scenery to challenge young Eric. He's got a clear run at the moment while I'm crook

The pic you use for your avitar, Peter, reminds me of another famous person.
an actor from that side of the pond.
Id say who but I'm wondering if anyone else see it.

Well I remember my first meeting with my late mother-in -law, Judith...Her very first words were "Ah Yes!..Sean Connery!".
Naturally I instantly fell in love with Judith

Great Pics (as usual) Eric. Did you manage to see who the coach builder is for those buses? Its quite unusual for the chassis maker to have their logo on the front of the bus these days.

Hi Ben,no I didn't,but I expect that I can find out.Are you thinking of ordering one?I think that the double deck versions were running at about £350,000 each!so I imagine that the single deckers will be a bit cheaper!

Seriously though,I'll try to find out.
They are being used on the no. 1 route from Clermistone to Easter Road.
Those pics were taken at a promotional event a couple of weeks ago,just before they went into service
If you come up again,you'll be surprised at how much the beloved tram project has progressed!
