The London Bus Museum held their Spring Gathering bus event today. Vehicle of choice was Leopard 414, still named inside in memory of another colleague. Marketing kindly gave us bags, pens & badges to hand out. A brilliant day out!

I’ve been in Bournemouth for the past few days. The news of the passing of my former employer’s Managing Director, Andrew Wickham MBE, therefore was quite a shock! I have Andrew to thank for inviting me to join GSC for my university placement year 2019-20. RIP Andrew.

#ShowYourStripes A global day to share how our climate is changing. The stripes showcase a powerful visual representation of how temperatures have increased around the world. Our single decker bus is out on UoR open day shuttles, showing the stripes to potential students.

Lots of work has gone into preparing everything for shuttle buses to the Newbury Show this year, with a new timetable that I created based on driver and customer feedback from the 2024 show. Hope all goes well!
