WME Flickr Focus - September 2019

As the Brexit saga rumbles on seemingly interminably, I'm pleased to report there have been no attempts made to prorogue progress on the West Midlands Exploration photostream. Here - minus any Supreme Court interventions - are September's movers and shakers...

Emerging from the shadows comes the resurgent Exploration Extra, powering back to prominence with pledges from Colwyn Bay, Crewe and Chester. Of those commitments, the Welsh angle is covered by cricket ground shots at Rhos-on-Sea plus an early morning visit to Deganwy railway station, whereas the English additions focus on Crewe's Borough Arms pub and a millennium walking trail in Chester.

Turning now to the traditional West Midlands heartlands, WME Wolverhampton has maintained its stance on regular photos for all. Street signs have been a staple contributor for a long time now and this month's examples include North Street and Rupert Street while the tempting facade of the Darlington Tavern offers much promise until you realise it's just a mock micropub. There are even references to popular culture with guest appearances from Mr T and the Spooks of Bottle Bay!

Elsewhere, WME Telford goes canvassing around Woodside (a solitary shot of the Elizabethan Inn's pub sign) and even WME Solihull has been stirred into action courtesy of the X2 bus at Solihull Station Interchange. Solihull's near neighbour WME Birmingham stakes its own claim with an evening call at the Yardley Arms during its days as a Flaming Grill establishment prior to going standard Greene King.

Our final slice of parliamentary poise comes from WME Worcestershire, newly replete with pictures of the First bus depot on Padmore Road. A Wetherspoons representative is acknowledged in the form of the Postal Order, handily located for Foregate Street station, and that's all for our dispatch box summary on this occasion. Maybe in October we'll finally get some Brexit clarity but at least there should be some photostream developments to look forward to!
