"Hush" - A short film - Filming - Day Two

Day two of the 'shoot' saw an early start on the Sunday morning, and a long day thereafter.

However, as always the cast and crew were in good fettle and another enjoyable - if tiring day - was had by one and all.

This photograph is 'Anna' in the 'Night Club' location - taken later in the day.

Bo'ness & Kinneil Railway


While through visiting the Falkirk wheel with my mum, we also went to the Bo'ness & Kinneil Railway where we had a great time.

Takes you back for sure, and the volunteers were very helpful and made our day out all the more enjoyable.


This is another attraction that I would heartily recommend. A great trip out for the kids as well as mums and dads.

Falkirk Wheel

Along with my mum, we took a run through to the East Coast, and among other things, we visited the Falkirk Wheel

Weather was very good and it was someting to watch the 'wheel' in action

Overall it was well worth the trip, and the surrounding area was spotless.

Staff in the shop were also very chatty and helpful - Top Marks

Cruise Ship - Black Prince

The - Black Prince - departs from Greenock Ocean Terminal for the last time

She is being retired and will no longer visit the Clyde


My friend used to sail on her regularly - preferring this to the hustle and bustle of the airport

End of an era
