Thanks to Graham for doing the assessment and John for firing. Thanks also to the OJTs who have shared their knowledge and experience during my time as trainee.

Driver Dhesi arriving at the town's bus station in a rather tatty looking 1509. By this time, the company was rebranding the fleet as WM Buses with local identities, and the newly applied and cheap looking 'WM Buses Wolverhampton' logo is plain to see. The residue from the removal of the West Midland Travel sticker below is messy and adds to the unkempt look of the ageing Leyland National.
The large cream fronted building behind the bus in Lichfield Street was once the Co-op department store, now a pub. When I was a child, my mother took me there on the odd Christmas to Santa's grotto, where I'd stand in a queue to see Father Christmas. Happy memories.

Dear diary,
Today the new recruits had to practice using a sea jet near the abandoned temple ... disastrous! John got stuck in the sea weed, Sam almost hit Sara and Lisa even succeeded in crashing hers.
Helga was excused from todays lesson ... her hair did not fit our standard diving helmet ... we're still looking for a suitable replacement.
