Merry Christmas Jake and family. Love your videos, they bring back many childhood memories from when my dad was "on the buses" at Lincolnshire RoadCar and Hornsby's, in Scunthorpe. Took me until 42 years old to follow in his footsteps, here in Perth, Australia, driving Transperth buses , mainly Volvo B7s and B8s, and the occasional Mercedes OH500s 🤪 🚍 Two years in the job now and only regret is I didn't do it sooner!
@@daryndadtheoladmccleave8382 Merry Christmas to you too. Glad you're enjoying the content and it brings back happy memories. Glad you're enjoying life on the buses too.
@@williambell7096 Thanks William and the same to you too. And it's an absolute pleasure. Yes there's something wonderfully beefy about an AEC engine isn't there?
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year,from the US! And if my information is correct,you live in an area,that has some of my cousins,from my dad's side of my ancestry!Small world,and I,at one time,was a contributing photographer/photojournalist to Bus World,a national magazine,now defunct,unfortunately! Between the RR,Bus,and aircraft,my knowledge,has just kept growing,and everything helps! Thank you for your efforts,and dedication! Thank you 😇 😊!
Hi Jake, From dad and I, we wish you and your team a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Dad's grey matter on buses had laid dormant. But now it's back to full strength which we all appreciate. Books and copies of LOTS have been referred to and course his own knowledge. Dad thinks you have probably the finest knowledge of the industry, he's come across for some time. little heads up for the New Year you may see dad commenting through my older brother Keith Richards, so my husband and i can get in some break time. Keith's mad on transport mainly aircraft. But knows his stuff. Well once again thank you and have a lovely Christmas. Bye Jake.
@@jadeboswell-rz2ly Hi Jade. I'm so pleased that your Dad has enjoyed the videos and it's rekindled his love of the industry. And that is a huge compliment. Thank you. Have a lovely Christmas all of you.

@@marksinthehouse1968 Merry Christmas Mark. I managed to avoid the 12s when I was at PM, although I once got lost on a 36 and ended up near Shepherd's Bush 😂😂 This year I'm working today,off tomorrow and back in on Boxing Day covering my friend's shift. It's a long one too 🥴. Yes will be great to catch up with you. Lots of stories!

One of the most pleasing aspects of this channel has to be its use of the old TVS fanfare! 😀
