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.

It's Liverpool: A change of direction
Those who follow my exploits will know that in the afternoon I have been doing a fifty-mile school run taking me around the fringes of Wolverhampton. But my employer has had to hand back some unprofitable contracts including mine and it looked as though I was going to have to struggle for suitable jobs. However they have agreed to find me work including what I cut my teeth on driving mini-buses the Airporter. So today I headed off at 5am for Liverpool Speke Airport but I never stopped for any photos as it poured and poured! Still now that I will be getting out and about a bit more again maybe now might I not only get a few nice tips off my customers but maybe I will get chance to catch shots of some of the variety and more unusual buses on my patch like this Arriva (NW) DAF wearing one of East Lancs most pleasant designs seen about three years ago at John Lennon Airport.
