Remember These

I really miss these bus's. What fun I had on them.
Jumping on and off when moving..........not recommended of course.
The very best thing though was the Bus Conductor.
I wanted to be one when I was about 3......
I just liked the noise the little ticket machine made, remember them?
And 'On The Buses' that was a favourite as a child.
I want them back !

I am so glad you are back on form, we all hate not being. I rarely drink alcohol but I love it when J fixes me a cuppa in the mornings. Oh yeah I remember On The Buses, what a classic, I always thought Olive looked so old, but she could have only have been in her twenties at the time, and I liked the wide-boy friend of Stans, I can't remember his name. I have never experienced hopping on and off of red buses, we have only ever had green ones down here, remember our green 'toastracks' the buses without a roof? I am so pleased to have made so many lovely 'virtual' friends too. My christmas spirit award has disappeared, oh well I had recognition for a short while at least! x

Carol, your mum's recipe sounds very similar to my mum's banana trifle made with a small jam swiss roll, extra jam!, sliced bananas and entombed in set cold BIRDS custard with a lovely skin on top, it was lovely and sometimes treated to a bit of cream as well, I have been known to make it, it is so simple. x

Goodmorning Carol
Lovely to see you back and all bouncy again!
Buses... I remember them well.. I had to catch the No:3 green double decker to school and it cost 3d bus fare.. as the bus came round the corner I dropped my coin and it rolled down the drain.. walked home that day! I would love a ticket machine.. they always fascinated me.
Have a lovely day.

I use to love the old red double decker buses and loved the noise the ticket machine made when the conductor turned it? Also remember the purple print on the ticket that sometimes smudged (I can't believe this has stirred up so many memories!).

Glad you're feeling better. Love the look of the smock and thanks for the sneaky photo of yourself.

Love the music. Making me feel very Christmassy.

Good to see you back. Red buses have great memories for me too as I only jumped on them with my Mum. She had worked in London as a young woman and knew which ones to get and when. Loved the freedom of being able to jump on and off. It all felt so easy.
