You get all the best jobs!! :-)

That's because I don't mind a bit of hard work, and will always volunteer. You would have also seen me driving 4851 in Wolverhampton at 5am this morning on the first V festival run of the day (0430 from Weston Park) if you were about, so it has been a bit of a long but enjoyable day!

Were there many takers for that one?!!  When I last did them with Arriva you were lucky to see anyone before 11!!

A whole day of taking them home usually required a peg on my nose aswell....I was often seen hanging out of the cab window on the M54 with a standing load!!

No! - probably did about 60 miles looking for them as well

Tony

After a days rest it continued its tour looking for ex Dundee Scanias, but getting a last look at 4488 in TWM livery before it went off to Walsall for repaint
