Difficult to know what to do to mark the occasion, so rather than something spectacular which would be difficult, here's my first attempt at bus photography. For some occasion or other like a Birthday or Christmas, one of my aunts had given me a camera, a 'made in Hong Kong' plastic creation which I can only assume wasn't made for serious use. Playing along, my parents bought me a film, and I set off to take some pictures... 12 in all. This, believe it or not, was the best result! It's all the more unfortunate, that it's the only picture I ever managed of an in service PMT Daimler Roadliner. KVT 172E was a Marshall bodied SRC6, It's seen (just about!) at the Kidsgrove Second Avenue terminus of the Newcastle service circa 1970. Mine and my friends bikes can be made out on the right.
