I might have gotten you too, but I probably won't upload my photos for years. Then you might find yourself in an embarressing pose like this bloke from a photo I took at the Seaburn Rally in 2003 that I recently uploaded. Looks like he's doing some sort of Michael Jackson dance.

Who needs heroes anyway? Villians have more fun.

(18 Apr 2014, 10:13 pm)Dan I noticed on a number of occasions that GNE buses were left unattended, and indeed I passed comments on... Marcus' Angel friend didn't leave her bus though, and she was sensible when moving the bus too. Had good words to say about her! There was a guy from Percy Main there too if memory serves - played everything by the book and he accompanied everyone around that Cobalt Connect.

Drivers who were there as enthusiasts (I.e. not in uniform) drove buses too. That shouldn't have happened.

Obvious difference between preserved vehicles being left unattended and GNE's vehicles being left unattended is that the drivers who brought GNE's vehicles to the rally don't own them...

On that subject, I don't think anyone was supposed to board the two demonstration vehicles that were there, other than the designated drivers who brought them along and had received training on that vehicle type etc. I got cab shots of both, and it wasn't until I uploaded the photos that I was told I shouldn't have been on the bus.


If Go North East are in attendance this year (which is entirely possible, as there are one or two things of interest popping up soon), don't expect things to be as relaxed as last year - I can't imagine folk will be allowed in the cabs to fiddle with destination displays etc.

I know this is almost a month later, but the woman who was in 6070 last year and 5258 this year was Pat Armstrong; probably one of Chester's best drivers in my opinion.

Funny how he's also got the "What are you doing taking my photo" look too.
