I would not have got close but for the Lancashire clue. I was at the other end of the sector.

The old man waiting to cross the Zebra is none other than Stanley I presume?

Good morning everybody I went to bed early with a dickie tummy and have just got up for a drink and a walkabout. Couldn't resist having a gander at the second P.P. corner.

Over the years Brumas has posted many scenes from postcards. Scenes that are sometimes of interest by way of an unusual event or of a pleasing view of some town centre, but this one takes the biscuit for being an outright boring scene!

Who the hell would have bought and sent this scene, and why...?

RED

WHITE

Who would have bought it? - Bus spotters, people who have recollections of seeing relatives, lovers off on bus, or perhaps there is nothing else remarkable about Accrington? Now to wait for the flak from Lancastrians!

Quickbeam As the entrepreneur and self taught architect who designed and sourced the recycled portacabins for this aesthetically pleasing vision of the 21st century transport hub I am mortally offended by your slur - you will be hearing from my solicitor. For your information, the complete run of postcards, all 10,000 were sold and my mother has them displayed in a prominent position in her prefab assuring me that they are more durable than wall paper and cheap at half the job lot price she willing paid ;o}}

You surely have to admit that the subject matter of this card is banality personified... don't you?
