WME Flickr Focus: May 2016

It's time to unfurl the bunting and send out the invitations as we prepare to welcome more glamorous guests into the Flickr fold. Let's see which prestigious pictures made it to the photostream party in May...

First among our photographic dignitaries is WME Birmingham, newly adorned with the finest attire from Highgate (Stanway signage at the Lamp Tavern) and Hill Hook (the local nature reserve). St Andrews football ground helps add a splash of Bluenose brashness and is joined in sporting terms by a look at Four Oaks Saints cricket club. A Gas Street red plaque and the Royal George hotel bar exemplify the sense of an extravagant entrance as the party gets underway.

Our Master of Ceremonies now announces the attendance of WME Dudley which combines bus station bravado (a rebuilding shot at Halesowen for example) with brewery brilliance (Holdens at Woodsetton) and a glimpse of Gosty Hill Tunnel signs. We must however pause briefly to remember the passing of the Earl of Wessex, once resident on Summerhill Road in Coseley but alas no longer with us.

Chauffeur-driven to the gates of the gala we admire the couture from wonderful Wolverhampton and spiffing Sandwell. For Wolverhampton we have Devils Elbow Bridge and the former Fallings Park Co-op vying for attention with corners of Priestfield and a vintage Ettingshall Carling Black Label feature, whereas Sandwell's selections are the Friar Park pub near Wednesbury and a repeat reply from Tipton's Factory Locks. Who could forget sumptuous Staffordshire though, fully resplendent with Dunsley Tunnel and the Boat at Gnosall.

Also appearing at our high-class house party are WME Worcestershire (Bridge 1 at Diglis Basin and a dashing showing from Droitwich rail station), WME Walsall (the debonair Deers Leap bus stop), WME Warwickshire (the Coventry speedway stadium at Brandon) and WME Telford (the delightful Donnington Co-op store). If that isn't razzmatazz enough for you we even have a couple of gatecrashers, so arriving fashionably late are WME Shropshire (gifting us a Craven Arms antiques hut) and Exploration Extra (handing over a Hinckley micropub) - lovely!

With all our VIPs (very important photos) present and correct it is only appropriate to raise a toast to the WME photostream and its onward progression. Another glitzy get-together is planned for June so any camera contenders are requested to RSVP asap to secure their place on the guest list. Until then dear fellows, tatty bye!
