The wheels on the bus go ROUND-AND-AROUND...















My friend who has the campsite, also runs his own vintage bus company (it's a family business and everyone mucks in!). Twice-a-week they do a run to places like Hawes, and travelling through that beautiful countryside in a 1940's bus is like a scene out of a James Herriot novel!! The driver and conductor get dressed up in the 'era appropriate dress' too!!
I also discovered "to my delight" that Will has bought a 1930's Rover from New Zealand of all places. He's only the third owner and it came in 'immaculate' conditon. So next time I'm over, I've done a deal that I get dressed up in CC41 suit and hat, and he provides the car!! so that was ALL an added bonus to my great camping expedition!!
