HAPPIER TIMES
This has been a long time coming, i didn't think i was ever going to do another blog full stop, after the last 2 weeks, this is a sort of a tribute to my father, who tolerated my love of Buses and actually encouraged me to keep on with it, this blog is a reflection of where my memory drifts back to with determination and hope for the future, some things won't be the same again, i won't have time to dedicate my passion of Buses like i have done, my dream was always to find a job within the Bus or Travel industry, sadly this hasn't happened, so if there is anyone out there willing to give me a chance! The picture above is a fond memory of the one place i go to that is Felixstowe, where we had a beach hut, as a 7 year old i was fascinated by the strange bus that travelled up and down Golf Road that being Eastern Counties Bristol Lodekka OT 2 VDV 753, i just missed out on going on the Lodekkas as they were on their way out, although there are vague memories of them on Felixstowe Road on Fireworks night in 1979. I can also remember one of the first Leyland Nationals in Felixstowe heading towards Western Avenue that year. For now this is goodbye, i will return at some point, RIP Dad.
