Bit nippy

It might look like a nice spring morning but it's not. It's bitterly cold out and i have numb toes to prove it lol. Nice morning upto now in Ashton everything running well apart from a few little things. The new bypass doesn't seem to be causing any problems in fact i would say wellington road is quieter at the moment. Had a nice day out checking tickets yesterday. Caught a few fare dodgers yesterday which is always nice and the rain held off so we didn't get drenched. Off all weekend so here's hoping for a nice trouble free afternoon.

  9. Attempted to get on the 346 at Morrisons, Dukinfield at about 4pm today - and the bus was hit by a car that skidded into it from the exit of Morrisons. Panel ripped and the bus couldn't travel any further. Poor driver said 5 hours driving and just as he was about to finish it happened. Felt really sorry for him :( Didn't catch the number of the bus itself, but it was one of the 'new' Enviro200's. Any news of how long it'll be out of service?
