Many know my more recent genre Buses and Girls photography as those earlier buses I really like have all gone so now I enjoy my bus hobby more for the photography. As well as being an artist I owned a small transport business before I retired but today I have a little job too driving a minibus dong a school run to Wolverhampton in the afternoon and occasionally other jobs. It gets me out and about and satisfies my childhood ambition to drive a bus.

Nessie: Big Bus in Stagecoach Stripes
During 1993 instead of going down the M1 I took to the old roads so that I could visit the towns on the way down to London with my camera. Apart from with my work the last time I visited Bedford I left it on one of Birch's Marshall bodied Leyland Leopards heading for kings Cross early in 1969 so things had certainly changed. But it was worth a visit for as well as a number of Routemasters United Counties was also operating this Hong Kong specification jumbo-sized three-axle Alexander bodied Leyland Olympian on route to Flitwick. With a head office Scottish registration F110 NES I wouldn't be too surprised had someone there nicknamed this striped monster Nessie.
