Nice pic of Master Matt. The old Master Matthew was a scuzzy ten year old Plaxton Cheetah. All of the coaches are named after members of the boss's family. Does that mean you are related to my guv'nor? I'd better be nice to you from now on.....

The allocated driver is a guy named Colin who has been with the firm since before I was born.........

Cheers

The old ones are the best! Them were the days when chaps built coaches by hand with care and passion. The bright work looks well on them pictures. Plus thats when they used to paint them by hand to add the finishing touch.

Better than a Turk drinking racki wondering where to put the brew machine switch lol

Those old things had no servos or power assistance of any sort,look at the size of the un heated mirrors.and how draughty are they.All of that bright work needs a lot of maintenance.
