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.

Bibby of Ingleton
As well as the big names some smaller Independents became well know too as they had a good Summer tours programme which meant that their coaches could be seen far and wide. Amongst the regular visitors to Plymouth and the West Country was Bibby of Ingleton whose rather ornate livery had a hint of the Gypsy caravan about it. When new in 1984 this Plaxton 3500 bodied Leyland Tiger was christened Dales Ambassador but it's predominantly grey livery seemed to echo the Devon skies here at Plymouth Hoe in this scene taken at the end of the Eighties..
