Here’s an interesting
little known fact ; More people visit Las Vegas in a year than visit the UK!!
Four years to go before
the next Winter Olympics in PyeongChang – Sochi from the opening ceremony until
the closing ‘do’ was great and Team GB did so well with 4 medals! Because one
of them was gold that makes us higher up the overall medal table than for
example Italy!!
It was Emile Zola that
said, “In my view, you cannot claim to have seen something until you have
photographed it.” It could have been me, I guess!!
A wink apparently goes
direct to the heart! I can’t argue that. After all I’m not that good a winker
anymore!
So I attended my first
public transport meeting for a few years during the week. Yes it was a bit of a
‘moan fest’, they always are! Funny thing though, the meeting started late
because there were no parking spaces available because it was market day. Hang
on it was a public transport meeting! Surely it would have been better to have
been late starting because of late trains or buses. I did quite enjoy the
meeting though, maybe it was because I was one of only four people out of about
fifty that still has to pay to use public transport!!
I overheard this during
the week and I do kind of understand. “I used to be quite religious until the
pope was German.”
<<CLICK HERE>> for yesterday's post, the Terence Davies film, 'Of time and the City' about his native city of Liverpool. It's brilliant but maybe not for everyone!! Local (to me) history geeks will love it! This was originally shown on BBC2 on Sunday and is also available on BBCi player.
