Nah wasn't the Palentine's. They're the 'new' buses as they're pretty much the last things Northumbria bought before the Arriva rebrand.
They would've only been 3 year or so old at the time so definitely not 'old'.
Was the old Leyland Olympians I believe now. Too foggy to say for sure can just remember them being before the A000XXX played which is 1985 or thereabouts I believe.
