Three contrasting Daimler Fleetlines stand outside the West Midlands PTA former Birmingham Corporation bus garage at Miller Street just off the Walsall Road in 1980. No. 3511 of 1965 was typical of it's period and unless one could actually see the more rounded side-profile they might have mistaken this Park Royal body for MCW. As for the more attractive PTA standard bodied bus of the Seventies on the...

a fabric angel with trumpet and banner, cut from printed musl i n and applied to a scrap of furnishing fabric Sometimes such serendipity occurs in my life that I have to stop and take a deep breath - just in case such a moment does not come my way again. What with the de-cluttering (to make room for more clutter! - to create space for personal uninterrupted art); making a fabric keepsake and actually...

Bovine TB (Free subscription) | 21/11/2009
It was only a matter of time before 'bovine' TB, now entrenched in a well protected but exploding population of badgers, spilled into non-bovine species. And if our Minister for (some) Animals' Health does not turn a hair at the slaughter of thousands of cattle annually, he may just have a fight on his hands with owners of some extremely highly valued alpacas, which when they do contract TB, appear...

By Julian Ware-Lane / @warelane It is pleasing when you hear of someone who enjoys their work. In Belle de Jour ’s case she would appear to be in a minority in her chosen area of employment. But that Dr Brooke Magnanti has had to out herself in an act of pre-emption against the Daily Mail perhaps suggests a hint of disingenuousness on her part. Just over three years ago I worked a stint in Amsterdam....

Boy! Am I Cross! (Free subscription) | 19/11/2009
. A Smethic lady was feeding the ducks in a park last week when she was approached by a warden and given a £75 on-the-spot littering fine. This jobsmith then told the lady that her young son could carry on feeding the ducks as he was too young to be fined! Here again we have a council that first backed stupidity and, bowing to pressure, changed their minds on the basis that it was now taking...

I decided to re-launch my blog. I've always enjoyed blogging. Be it about keeping fit, funny events or just life in general. At first it was a poor attempt to try and make some money out of the internet. I was told it was a good way to start. But as in many things in life this is not always true. So, I think its wise to just going back to talking about things in general. I'm going to do a little bit...

Finally, for the first time in a couple of months, I'm getting the train to Shrewsbury to go fencing. I'll be embarrassingly bad, but it doesn't matter. I couldn't avoid it even if I wanted to: I've been dumped with organising the West Midlands entry to a big youth team event - 2/3 days around the 20th December. What brilliant timing, though I suppose it gives parents a few days' peace while they do...

Heard the one about a taxpayer-funded £380k being gurgled down the drain thanks to a fellow taxpayer-funded organisation? No? The TPA has the details. Despite reviews in the local and national press, a huge amount of publicity due to the controversy surrounding it and £380,000 of Screen WM investment, the taxpayer-funded movie 1 Day still only grossed a meagre £44k on its opening...
