Thank you Maria, I must see if I can rectify that soon but I do tend to paint what I have experienced first-hand and for my sins I have never been to Liverpool. As compensation I do have an image of Lime Street station here on FAA you may like to look at. Birmingham buses do have a special place in my affections because I spent my formative years there and as a boy always wanted to be able to drive a Birmingham bus. My chance came much later in the late eighties when the bus company I worked for in Brixham bought two ex BTC secondhand double-deckers and put them to work, you see all things come to those who wait!

Mike I was so disappointed when browsing through your images at finding no Liverpool buses! I love the detail in your work and the nostalgia that they bring. i used to play with my brothers matchbox vehicles and there was a wide variety which you seem to have reproduced in your images. I like every image. The road sweeper and the Birmingham buses are of interest because I am writing a friend's life story, he lived in Birmingham for a while and one of the chapters is about the road sweepers. I will send you the chapter when I get a chance. I think you may enjoy it. Your biography was really well written and very interesting :)
