There's an Irish joke about someone thinking Sherlock Holmes was a block of flats, it isn't, its an estate agent. I suppose it was only a matter of time before someone dreamed this one up, its good, I like it.

Taken from the same bus was this almost sinister looking building, it looks like some sort of 1950s alien spacecraft, but a building like this can only be one thing, a cinema from perhaps before the war, I suppose it became a bingo hall sometime in the 1960s, probably when it aquired this wonderful paint job, it's a work of art, God had a hand in this photograph, as when the bus stopped at some lights the sun broke through, enough time for me to grab a handful of shots. I've realised exactly what this is now, the front is in the shape of a streamlined steam engine, either the Gressley A4 Pacifics, or the Princess class locomotives. This picture made my day.

Your bus sure takes some interesting routes!   

Funny you should say that, we were well over two hours on that bus, we were having a laugh and a chat to people, every wher we travel there seems to be more and more ideas for photo opportunities in all sorts of unexpected places, now I've discovered a seemingly wonderful photogenic area on Manchester university campus, try and get there sometime this week.

Your pictures are amazing.  I do so enjoy your travels!

Great shots, Summicron.
