Open Top Bus, BRMB's first Walkathon
Pictured at a bus-stop in Harborne taking part in BRMB radio's very first 'walkathon', a charity event where people would walk the entire 'Outer Circle' bus route (anti-clockwise) - a distance of approximately 27 miles. The bus was used to ferry walkers who'd decided to stop at various checkpoints back to where they started. I remember this well - I did the whole route - got thoroughly drenched ! :)

The (former) Royalty Bingo palace
Built in 1930 as a cinema for Selly Oak Pictures Ltd, and converted to use as a bingo hall in the '60s; it was still in operation until quite recently but suffered from a serious fire in the autumn of 2018 which seems to have brought an end (for the moment at least) to its operations. It was Grade II listed https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101401284-the-royalty-gala-bingo-harborne-ward#.Xdqg-Oj7Tcs & https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1401284 in 2011. The second of the above 2 links gives an extensive description of the interior features, many of which are probably now lost to the aforementioned fire.

Harborne ghost sign - Birmingham
This ghost sign, advertising the services of builders A W Reynolds and Son, once was prominent on the gable end of a house in War Lane, Harborne, near the War Lane allotments but, sadly, since this photo was taken in 2011, the ghost sign has been painted over and is now no longer visible. There are many examples of these signs in Britain and the History of Advertising Trust and other websites on the subject hold an archive of examples from around the UK. Time taken 11.13 pm BST (British Summer Time).
