(01 Jan 2016, 9:25 pm)Adrian Best way. You get to see a lot more interesting stock by travelling around a bit! Unfortunately there'll always be people that don't appreciate what's not on their door step.
I'd love to do Dublin one day. I was down Derby not so long ago, and found things a bit average. Arriva had some interesting stock down there, but I'd probably want to do it again in the summer and explore a bit more.

Unfortunately there'll always be people that don't appreciate what's not on their door step.As DanPicken states in his post, money plays a major part. In an attempt to try and get to various locations in future I am trying to find a part - time job.

(01 Jan 2016, 9:34 pm)LeeCalder Do I?
I believe it would be wrong to go out and about with others without paying petrol money, for which reason I always do.
(01 Jan 2016, 9:34 pm)LeeCalder Do I?Yes... but when you don't know soneone who drives, then you have to pay loads for either coach or train tickets.

(01 Jan 2016, 9:07 pm)tyresmoke Why not head to Crook and photograph Weardale's X21? Due in at 1030, same time as one of the 101's.X21 leaves Crook at 1050 on Saturday's, heading towards Stanhope. Thanks for the suggestion though, may still do that, I'll see how I feel, but I don't have a photo of the X21.
There's probably not a lot you haven't got a photo of though to be fair!
Might be worth mentioning that there will be a heavy coach presence for rail replacement Darlington-Durham-Newcastle over the next few weeks, but this starts next week 9th January.
(01 Jan 2016, 9:21 pm)LeeCalder I would like to think I have broadened my horizons. You only have to look at my Flickr to see that.It is nice to see you getting about further afield and seeing some photos of buses somewhere else, looking at some of the photos you uploaded earlier, it just made me think that I would like to head down that way someday for some photos. Unsure about where I intend to head in the summer yet although I was having a look through a site listing events and rallies for buses in 2016, some of which I am considering heading to, plus other places I'd like to go to for day to day service buses. I am in Manchester one weekend this month although I'm actually down there to see The Libertines, so I'm unlikely to get much in the way of photos whilst I'm down there, although I will try and get a few in and I will take the Nikon this time instead of that little pocket Sony camera I have.
I am no longer wandering around with the controversial, I have some brilliant mates who are both enthusiasts and involved heavily in the industry. Yesterday saw a trip to TrentBarton Land, and further trips to Lancashire, Dublin and Cardiff are on the cards.

(01 Jan 2016, 9:41 pm)LeeCalder This appears to have become a bit of a sympathy argument (again)...
You could travel by Megabus to any of the said places for less that £10!
Which is a hell of a lot less that I pay in petrol.

I'd also suggest Sheffield and South Yorkshire as an area to explore. A few days is enough - you can also do the Peak District area from the area.
I'm hopefully going to try and go to other parts of the Country this year. Mind, I did say that last year and the furthest I got was the Peaks.
