Twighlight
Service |
Saturday
30.4.16 |
|
An
evening of King Alfred bus services
in Winchester. |
|
As last year, the new
annual May running weekend started with
an evening service. |
|
Although damp to start
with, the evening became drier, if rather
cold. |
|
Despite the weather,
there were plenty of people to support
the event. |
|
Here are the photos
from my journeys to Owslebury, Worthy
Down, Weeke Estate, Oliver's Battery,
Morn Hill and Springvale. |
|
All this, in just four
hours. |
