- So which particular picture was responsible for me achieving the landmark number? The honour fell to the railway station sign at Honeybourne, swiftly followed by photo 4,001 which tackled the Thatched Tavern in the same village. May was actually quite productive for WME Worcestershire as Kidderminster's Diamond Bus depot and a carpet showroom also joined the party.
- WME Wolverhampton has always been the most consistent contributor of photostream content, accounting for 700 or so of my pictorial tally. Street signs have been prevalent here of late, including examples from Goldthorn Hill, Holden Road (Penn) and Jeddo Street (on one corner of the Sunbeam building).
- To WME Telford next and some input from Ironbridge. Two sackcloth pig characters make a change from my usual type of muse and there are some Merrythought teddy bears for added cuteness. A Golden Ball pub sign is more of a standard shot whereas Jackfield jumps in with a tile or several.
- Not to be outdone, WME Staffordshire proffers forth a couple from Kinver (the local High School and the Royal British Legion office) plus some Potteries helpings from Hartshill, most notably a nod to the Jolly Potters pub. WME Sandwell meanwhile busies itself with Bearwood (a tribute to the gardener John Tradescant), lingers on the Lyng (a dartboard in the Vic) and gathers a railway sign at Smethwick Galton Bridge.
- This brings us lastly to May's lesser lights which were WME Shropshire (the Rose & Crown in Ludlow), WME Dudley (receiving Gornal's Bulls Head) and a Gillhurst Road snippet from WME Birmingham.
After all of that, I'd better start working towards the next major milestone - 5,000 photos looks a long way off but I hope to get there one day!
