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.

Barbarella and Nottingham's Panaramic Atlantean Special
Nottingham is famed rather more for the traditional higher percentage of women to men in the City than for it's buses. But for many years with so much variety and quality, right up to the Seventies I'm sure many would vote it the most interesting place in the U.K to view buses and coaches and a Nottingham City Transport Northern-Counties bodied Atlantean acts as a reminder of those wonderful days when even the City's buses were built to their own distinctive design. As I photographed this scene with No.631 waiting to leave for Gelding quite by coincidence one of the women raised her arm echoing the Barbarella Girl.
