Seeing red

Into town for another office day, with the weather just warm enough for shorts, but cold enough for a windproof on top.  The day was long, and it dragged on, but I think I got quite a bit done anyway.  Riding home I diverted through the Meadows to see if my sticker was still in place; it was, but it'd been all but covered over with a flyer for this month's Edinburgh Critical Mass ride.  #bloodycyclists, with their fun, cheerful and inclusive events…

This London bus, the all-conquering Routemaster, was inexplicably parked outside the university's Old Medical School, near the Meadows.  Equally inexplicably, it's a no.12 going to Marylebone and Ludgate Circus, but the 12 doesn't go that way, and those destinations as far as I know aren't even on the same route for any bus.  But WLT737 is vehicle RM737, and has been preserved since 1983.  It appears quite frequently at bus rallies.

The rest of my ride home was uneventful, save for spotting another Lion Foundry item that I will need to blip another time!
