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.

Manchester: Girls Solo
As long as I can remember there have been single-deck buses working a circular city-centre shuttle in Manchester and since the Seventies these have been midi-bus types starting with very square looking M-Reg Seddons but in comparison the Optare Solo buses used by First today on this type of work are almost pretty. Standing outside Piccadilly Station and branded for the 3 to the Metrocentre was No.53549 which a few years ago might have been worked by Optare's previous generation of these small buses more aptly christened the Metrorider.
