So if he has 8 buses for sale he cant use lack if buses for an excuse not to run service.
Unless he forgot to update his vacancies page, he is still needing drivers, both full and part time. So it sounds like the real issue is getting drivers, nothing to do with the buses.

But who knows, there may be a different problem entirely going on. Certainly think he expanded far too early but that's just my opinion.

I've just seen PN06 UYS on the 14.20 66 ex Victoria Road.
Only Guy Arabs (a choice of 63) stopped at my front door 1957-1964!

Service 15 listed as suspended on their website. Service 12 has been removed entirely.

Since I looked ten minutes ago the website has been changed and now says 12, 15 and 66 withdrawn.

I printed the 66 timetable to go and get a photo yesterday and later in the day I looked again and it had been reduced from 2 to 1 bus. Things move quickly if it had gone altogether by the evening!

According to their Facebook:
QuoteSo it seems the website got wrongly updated last night, this is currently being rectified....
Service 12 has reappeared with a revised Monday to Friday timetable effective from 17 July 2017.

Still looking for one more full time driver too.

In Mike's defence he did rewrite his Cpc Managers course and passed easy.  He has had some very bad look.  But also brought the wrong buses. Everyone is having issues getting Drivers!  National Express are giving £500 welcome bonuses to new starters on Coaches.  Skills Coaches are having to let office staff and fitters drive to cover there work.  Even Nct had to cancel route the last time England played football on Sunday as Trent Bridge was short.  The 11c which is Sunday's only did not run that day!
