Here are some photos I took. If you want to see a photo in hi-res, click on it.

Today I'm walking from Stonehouse to Brimscombe. So I park my car in Brimscombe. I discover that the bus from Brimscombe to Stonehouse "won't be serving the bus stop in Brimscombe" - it's unclear as to whether it's just this bus stop or whether the service has been cancelled or cancelled for this bit of the journey. So I drive to next bus stop and although there's no similar sign on my side of the road there is one at the bus stop on the other side of the road. Just as the bus is due, a taxi passes. I hail it and it costs me £13.60 to get to Stonehouse!
