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.

Chaserider Laser Bodied Tiger A602 HVT in Stafford
This was my favorite spot for bus photography in Stafford till they cut out the traffic for pedestrians. A Chaserider Duple Laser bodied Leyland Tiger looked rather grubby and cold in the snow.
I did like the Duple Laser in its dual-purpose use. It felt to me a suitable successor to the Midland Red standard CDP, or even the SDPs, whereas things like the Plaxton Paramount seemed more like "proper coaches" and out of place on bus services.
