Thought I’d just check again as it’s this Sunday.

Anyone up for it?

Owning an old bus is a bit like making love to a beautiful woman. First you have to stand back and admire the classic lines and curves, run your hands over the rear flanks, then before you start her up you need to go down on your knees and fettle around with her rear end, make sure she's properly lubricated. Now you're ready to get in the driver's seat and take control. Put your key in the slot, turn her over and tickle the gas until she starts to purr. Once she's warmed up a little, shift the gear lever into first and treat her gently until she's running smooth.... change gear with care, listening for any warning sounds as you go, ease her around firmly but carefully, talking soothingly as you go. And never ever put her in reverse without coming to a complete stop first.
