Portrait of Peter.

When I went back to work this afternoon, I walked into the bait room* with my camera in hand. My colleague, Peter said to take his picture, so I did! I had too big a lens on really but I quite like the result in mono.

*I have worked in various depots for several different companies throughout Scotland but this is the first one I have found where the drivers' rest room/break room is referred to a a "bait" room. I thought this word had been made up by someone in the company until a passenger, one evening, on finding a container of scones, left on the bus by one of the kids after a cooking lesson, asked me if this was my bait! I think it is peculiar to this part of the Borders though.
