miss president’s bollards

miss president sent me this excellent bollard picture:

she wrote: ” I emailed you a few weeks ago about the following pictures. These were taken while on a walk in Hewitt, New Jersey, USA. I think that the poor bollard looks like he has been sick. 🙂 My fiance and I have now found ourselves on the lookout since I have been following your blog – we see bollards/cones everywhere now! ”

bollards being eaten by the ground

the poor bollard on the right is being dragged underground whilst the other one leans over to help.
or is it two bollards making an escape via a tunnel from the local bollard prison before scarpering off ?

a bit of trouble with wind

it was a bit windy yesterday. i had a meeting in london and got blown along most of the southbank. i took this photo of the wobbly bridge as i was surprised it was so empty. in fact it was shut.
i was pleased with the photo though as it was just a grab shot, with a sideways gale wobbling me, but i still managed to get it vaguely level and centred ! i love the wide angle on my new compact camera.

it took me three and half hours to get home which was a bit of a shame. in fact i spent 5 and a half hours travelling today for a 3 hour meeting. just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse i saw the colour scheme on this screen.
today, i’m off to glasgow for the day, so let’s hope the wind calms down a bit !

and finally here’s a bollard waving a streamer in the wind. i tried to take a video of it, but the wind stopped. so it looked a bit boring. which it was.
