Finished my silly 4am starts for this week now. I thought i'd try my poorly shoulder on my bike and come feed the ducks in alexandra park. It's looking very nice this year. This is the bowling green which is looking very well kept. My new bike comes next week sometime so will probably be out more on that.
I am interested in the bike to work scheme , will deffo look into that when I get my start date. I love earlies , but was warned at interview, theres loads of splits. When i was at hyde rd , i went onto the splits rota anyway !
ReplyDelete2 years service before you can join the scheme. Lots of splits yes im on one on Friday worse luck am trying to get rid.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the new job Chris & get them 2 years in ;>D
ReplyDeleteThe park looks nice & a fair bit flatter than our local one.
I got all the bus time booklets today from the travel shop. I have written down all the services you have spoke about on here, going to buy a mega rider and go on a few of them too. I have always wondered where the 7 went (to get to stokport, i knew that much!) never been on a 330,217 or 8,345,6,and 7!
ReplyDeleteThey don't look too bad, the 218 must take a full half duty!
Save ya money and wait for your staff pass and route learning lol the 217 218 take up 5 hours of your duty.
ReplyDeleteThats some split! Im waiting for my licence,personell reckons upto 2 weeks. they can't find my file at Hyde rd,but none of the managers remember me (im a good lad, i am!) and thats a good thing apparently.One reference was outstanding last thurs, hope she has it now. We are on hols mon - sat next week,so hopefully I can ring her whilst in Torquay,and get a start date.
