Yes, I know, another bus spotter wanting to share his little insular world with the rest of humanity, but there you go. Or maybe not...

Welcome to my Flickr site. No plans to upload the whole nine yards on here, as it were. Life's too short and the missus would have my proverbials for being on the bloody computer all the time (and quite right too).

As for me, I'm a child of 1966, now married to the lovely Teresa and father of the equally smashing Patrick. Since the age of around three (maybe even a bit before) I've had a fascination for buses and coaches, when things in my neck of woods suddenly starting going sunglow orange (which explains the second half of my profile name).

In another life I'm also a keen amateur musician and have been known to culturally torture people by means of the tenor saxophone (which explains the first half of the profile - google it and you'll know what I'm on about).

To echo the remarks of many other Flickr users, please respect my copyright and do not use any of my images without my permission. Certainly do not pinch them from here (for theft is what it is) and flog them on e-bay, or put them on Facebook. I'm more than happy to consider requests for permission to use images in publications and so on. In short, ask and you may be pleasantly surprised.

Please note however that I'm unfortunately not in the market to sell or provide print copies of any images for personal collections etc - so please don't be offended if I decline any requests. If you like it, click it as a favourite (that's "favourite" with a "u", Flickr, please take note) and you can enjoy for perpetuity in cyberspace.

Anyway, enough from me. Hope you enjoy.
