1947: WAS one of the loveliest cities in Germany.
Wonder if anyone on the 1937 tour returned a few years later in a bomber.
46 years later and I remembered almost every word. Pfft.
Have this one on me.

"TERMINAL POINTS OF LONDON TRANSPORT COUNTRY BUSES, 1948-1969" BEING A COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE TO MOST OF THE TERMINAL POINTS (OVER 1,000) WHICH WERE IN USE BETWEEN 1948 AND THE ABANDONMENT OF THE COUNTRY BUS BY LONDON TRANSPORT AT THE END OF 1969. This book, with 180 large pages (91"x6}"), Introduction, explanatory notes and attractive semi-hard covers, contains a large-scale map of each terminus arranged in alphabetical order, six maps per page. Although these maps (note: maps, NOT diagrams) are fairly small, measuring 23" x24" they contain an amazing amount of detail, including features never before seen in bus maps. Each map shows the direction (s) from which buses approached the terminus; the boarding point, alighting point and stand; the official approved terminal working and in most cases any later revised working; the services using that working; and the year it was first used. All roads are named and all details relevant to the terminus (such as pubs, schools, churches, etc) marked. Complicated sections are enlarged in insets; everything clear and easy to understand. Long-dead terminals like Denham Studios, Rainham Ferry and Southern Hospital? They're here! Still-current terminals like Cross Keys (Kippington Estate), Holmer Green and Tewin? They're likewise here-along with over 1,000 others, from Abbots Langley through to Wycombe Marsh, many never before even marked on any bus map, let alone shown in great detail as in this book! Do you know where Wilton Park is and how routes 305 and 373 reached it from normal line of route? Do you know that Frog-moor Bus Station in High Wycombe was the only place where LT buses reversed with passengers on board? This is probably the first book ever published on the subject of bus terminals and workings and is certain to become a collector's item. GUARANTEE: Any person who buys this book and is not absolutely delighted with it can have his money back in full.
Barry Kosky’s magnum opis, and it came with a guarantee. And SO MANY unsolicited superlatives. Niche, and then some. From Buses magazine Sept 1975.
He wasn’t unfortunately. Very chatter free.

It turned out to be a sausage too far!
Sausage, bacon, egg, hash browns, black pudding and fried bread. Smashing.
Done a breakfast, lads. Is there such a thing as too much breakfast?
…and a friend will lose his friend’s hammer, and the young will not know where lyeth the things possessed by their father that their father put there only just the night before, about 8 o’clock.

Not one wardrobe reference. Disappointing from the lad Lewis.
Well so far 1983 is putting 1999 to shame #totp
And at that time, there were rumours of things going astray, and there was a great confusion as to where things really are. And no one knows where lyeth those little things with a sort of raffia work base, that has an attachment….
I can only reply to this now because I had the Bluesky fax number.
Manchester Police are on the hunt for a drag queen who robbed a local store.
They’re described as a local with a Wigan address.
Happy birthday Sue!
It makes the briefest of appearances at the very end. Good to see it still in use in 2026.
And kerning it seems to have made it worse.
It really is peculiar, that R is particularly offensive. So many clear san serif typefaces they could have used, but it’s probably for the best that they avoided Gill.
May 1990. I was certain the sign was in Futura, turns out it wasn’t.
I bought the Sheep Book. Love the cover design, but I’ll keep looking at the content to a minimum.
Very nice, love the original fireplaces. Exciting times!
Good work Sarah. Sometimes it’s better to annoy than be annoyed. Or something.
Good morning! Hope it’s a fine one for you.
