Just seen a couple swallows out at Upton Pyne so that’s one to cross off the list.

Just had a couple of swallows outside the pub.
Far better!

Yes. As far as the licencing laws are concerned I'm definitely ancient enough to be classed as a "consenting adult".

EU flags on driving licences. Had to renew mine.

It now comes embellished with a Union Jack, and a picture of Johnson and the words "Take control of the wheel" on the reverse.

The “Hop on,hop off” Routemaster Bus in London.

The last heritage busses will not be coming back once normal transport services are resumed in London.

They were used on one route,primarily for tourists but in the current climate,with TFL losing money hand over fist it’s a easy option not to restart the service.

Pocket watches, Very rarely if ever seen, I think they look quite natty with a waistcoat.

The Llangollen Heritage Railway...Being liquidated because of the lack of income in the past 12 months.

It’s a wonderful line on the English/Welsh border.
Annoying that a huge amount of taxpayers money has been given to the National Rail franchises(running at about £1m a hour !) that a tiny fraction could not be spared for that line.
