bollards

a bollard’s magic carpet

it’s a rare sight to see a bollard on its favourite type of transport, so i did well to catch this bollard on it’s flourescent magic carpet.
(note how dark it is in the mornings in london at this time of year)

levitating bollard

this bollard appeared to be levitating. it was actually standing on some netting. a bollard safety net no doubt.

more bollard photos

i’ve been a bit tardy keeping up with my email correspondence of late, so belatedly here’s a bollard photo from Annette of Boston. She’s got a page full of bollards with some great pictures.
i particularly liked this one of bollard hero worship (“when i’m bigger i want to smoke”). She’s also got some great ones of the Bollard Guantanamo Bay down the bottom.

i should also mention groc who sent this picture of bollards considering whether to take a dip in the sea at Brighton (i think groc was in the sea taking this photo):

and finally, another regularly reader has been inspired to start their own blog. This one is in halifax (in the north of England where the countryside is beautiful, but it rains even more than london) by Gary.
(as always, i’m not responsible for stuff on other people’s sites so venture at your own peril !)
