See ya tomoz mate.

In what respect was this bigger than any other double decker? Physical dimentions or seating capacity. Physically it doesn't sound to be bigger than a Leyland Atlantean, which we got in two lengths. Double deck busses, stock trucks and loaded car carriers can have a maximum height of 4.6 metres, obviously these are smarter vehicles than others and able to duck under bridges and power lines.

Sleepy must be relieved, he can go back to normal, using smilies as of today.
I admire your willpower Sleepy.

Hey all, quick question.

One of the solicitors has been put on hold music, an old '70's song that we really like & are singing & dancing to ... but can't remember who sang it. It goes like this:

"I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away ..."

Anybody? It's bugging the blazes out of us

Okay, back to work now ...

Dobie Gray's is probably the most popular cover of this song, and possibly the one he was listening to. Although I'm sure Michael "That's one helluva mullet" Bolton did a cover as well....

Was also used in a chocolate commercial for Cadbury's I think...

There's an Irish version..."Oh give me the Peat Moss and and anusol....." Italian..."Oh give me the meat balls and pasta sauce...." and of course, country and western..."Oh give me the wheat boys and ...."

I don't know how many passengers our Atlanteans were allowed to carry, our Panthers were permitted to carry 50% more than the licensed number of adult passengers, when operating on school runs.

Cheeky bugger ... you get worse with age ...

It has actually happened you know ... not often I'll grant you, but it has happened!
