I'm enclosing a picture of a similar bus. I want to check it is visible.



Maybe it's the Alexander Dennis Monogram Invisible Red; Code FWIT...
Maybe it was hit by one of the drivers who didn't see Bob in his flying Banana stealth car, 5 times.

My father and young sister are both buried a few yards away from Old Mother Riley's grave.

I must admit, I have had 3 French vans, the first was a Renault Kangoo, which was horrible, then I had the Berlingo, which was a great van, then had the Dispatch, which was reliable for 4 years, then suddenly started going wrong all at once. I think Citfoen have improved fed their game with newer vehicles, but Renault? No thank you.
