I took our eldest (5 years old) and he loved it. Me too! He especially loved the ride on 3833 on the tour through Riverside. He insisted on sitting upstairs right at the back, reckoning that you get a longer ride by sitting at the back.

The people from Kingsleys were spot on - the guy (and I presumed his son) were fantastic. He let myself and my Son sit in the cab of the Trident, and even let him toot the horn which he was over the moon with.

I don't know anyone on here person, but recognised a few people in the flesh. At some point I wanderered past Messers Cooper, Kuy, Kennedy, Westgarth, Gray, Stanness, Smith & Hunter that I recognised form the world of t'internet and I presume Bazza was the guy in the Sunderland shirt with his name on the back. It's a funny one, I found myself smiling at someone at one point before reminding myself that I don't actually know them, and in reality they're probably wondering who this weirdo is.
