Take a look at https://spoonstracker.com/ ...map with different coloured pins and a leaderboard too....

My idea for quickly increasing capacity on Voyagers would be to take out all but one of the (smelly) toilets and fit them out with 3+2 seating. Might be a bit cosy on a 221 but hey, a 25% instant capacity increase!

Just a couple of observations that might or might not be of use...looking at the shot of 47712, there is a lot of fringing around the numbers and logo, possible result of over-sharpening / JPEG compression effects? The same is evident around the numbering and lettering on D832. Doesn't look...

Wow, I hope all late night bus and train services in the UK are all operated commercially - I don't want to be subsidising anyone going to the pub.

I'd agree with takno above, usually, I give the beer 2-3 weeks in the barrel before drinking over about a 2 week period. Normally, the secondary fermentation gives enough pressure to allow the entire barrel to be dispensed but, if not, a quick shot of carbon dioxide from the soda stream...

If you want to go down the mashing route, I can recommend the recipes 'brewing beers like those you buy' by Dave Line; used to have the first edition when I started homebrewing back in the mid eighties and when things went well, the results really did taste like the real thing. Unfortunately...

Being an avid ale drinker, one thing I've noticed over the years is how many of the more mainstream ales (Hobgoblin, 6X, Spitfire, Speckled Hen etc) seem to have lost a lot of their character and have become somewhat bland, presumably so that they can appeal to more people and hence increase...

regarding , the First Outer I bought in Bristol on Monday had a QR code on the bottom of it....caused much ticket studying to occur later in Bath when getting on the 265 with claims of it not being valid "not one of our tickets mate" despite text on the ticket clearly stating First Bristol Bath...

I always enjoy a good look at these reports as they often contain some hidden gems of data. For example, table 12.13 shows that since 2010-11, total passenger train kilometres have increased by less than 5%. This doesn't seem very impressive to me, given the huge sums of money invested in the...

A few photos, not mine, here https://www.flickr.com/photos/134741049@N04/37314355091/in/photostream/

Plenty of press coverage today regarding the Mules demise; Jeremy Vine, Metro, ITV West Country News and even some national papers! Sad state of affairs really that he should feel pressured out of Seaton and his depot by various aggrieved parties. Maybe they got the hump because they couldn't...

Think I'd be more worried about people coughing and sneezing on the open displays of buns and pastries in the supermarket than a few wasps.

Bulgy bus....he's a mean scarlet deceiver :p

How about Oxford - Aylesbury - High Wycombe - Slough - Heathrow and onwards.

Here in Trowbridge, we used to have a thriving pie, sausage and scotch egg factory that made (amongst other things) Melton Mowbray pork pies for many of the major supermarkets. Alas, under EU 'protected status' rules, Melton Mowbray pork pie manufacture had to end and the factory became...

Not just injection moulded good, a lot of common rubber products, including tyres, contain stearic acid (0.5-1%). Up until the BSE 'crisis', this was derived from bovine products, not sure if it still is.

Most enjoyable, thanks :D

Are there any interesting vehicles operating on the Severn Tunnel RRB services?

Think you misunderstand - a rare opportunity to enjoy rear seat on a VR in service in 2016. Personally, I hope it continues as I've already enjoyed three fantastic days out on the VR.

For some open top Bristol VR and RE action around West Dorset this summer, check this out; https://www.facebook.com/Mendip-Mule-Motorbus-566563233447610/ They are experiencing dire ridership it seems, so a rear seat downstairs on the VR is almost guaranteed :D
