That's not to say it will be repeated.

It'll be interesting to see if he stamps his mark, because First Manchester (and increasingly, Stagecoach M'cr) are constantly changing times and cutting suburban services.

Must say, though, I always think private number plates are a bad sign. I don't know about elsewhere, but in GM a very high proportion of bus stop blocking and other traffic misdemenours and offences involve vehicles with "cherished" marks. I think it indicates both a personal arrogance and spells out the message; I've paid £x.000 for this plate, I don't give a s**t about £50 fines.
