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.

Stafford: Turner's mean nothing here
Being the newest and best appointed single-deckers the six comfortable Gardner-Powered Leyland National2 buses delivered to PMT in 1982 were regular performers on the long trunk route from Hanley to Stafford and on occasion this included No.306 which was painted in the traditional colours of a recently absorbed Independent called Turner's whose brown buses used to reside at Brown Edge in the opposite direction far from the County Town. By this time Potteries buses were being painted in their new Privatisation red and yellow livery and were a much prettier sight than that NBC poppy-red but this attractive goodwill liveried bus was equally welcome.
