4038 and 4041 have suddenly been debranded, not sure if this has anything to do with gaining 4323

My earliest memories were of the fleetlines on the Bristol Rd routes (6597 - 6600)
I have a memory of getting on 4207 at Holly Hill shops too.
I remember the Mk1 Metros on the Bristol Rd (2001 - 2015) and seeing the brand new Mk2s (2550 - 2560).
Also I remember seeing the dual door Fleetlines on the Pershore Rd routes (37XX and 38XX) I'm sure I remember a route 41 which came into town via Bristol St.
I often travelled on the 7 to Newtown and remember getting on the 2275 upwards Metros, but I'm sure of catching 4554 a few times.
My best memory though is of being a young bus fan in the early 80s and encouaging my Mom to take me down to Miller St garage which she did (probably so I'd stop going on about it!). We went to the garage on a sunny afternoon and there was just one bus in the yard, and cheekily I walked in and sat in the drivers seat, I still remember the fleet number to this day - 4172. Just wish I had a camera at the time!
