Less scratches but double (or triple) exposure. Apparently the logo of the trays has been engraved while going through the development phase. A texture like human skin is also appreciated. I do not understand why. No oscar for me again.

Brian Isaac started as a minibus operator c 1970 ,though by the end of the 70s the related D.W.Isaac Coaches of Mysydd Garage, Landore retired and he took over.The Bedford VAM was one of the first coaches to be acquired ,fleet no 8 as I remember,whilst the YRT came from Nu-Venture of Maidstone c1979 and was later sold on to Tudor Thomas,Swansea(t/a Blueline Coaches).Both are seen beside the railway line at Hafod,Swansea on land which is presently being developed as housing.
The Isaac fleet got up to over 30 vehicles of all makes before a decision to concentrate on holiday work was made about 4 years back.Nowadays Brian Isaac Coach Holidays are operating alongside the Diamond Holidays programme out of a new call centre in Morriston.There were a few 05 regd Bovas in Isaac livery though I ve not seen them lately.Diamond Holidays have recieved 14 new ones lately so the Brian Isaac identity may well have been absorbed.

‘Scene’ on a PSV Circle Organised Visit.
In Bolton Town Centre 2, More Double Deckers
on Dennis Basford’srailsroadsrunways.blogspot.co.uk’
The second blog of ten, posted over ten consecutive days.
More tomorrow,
The PSV Circle (of which I have been a member for some years) aims to hold an Annual General Meeting in a different location in the UK every year.
Usually held at a weekend, they also include visits to operators and other bus related venues for the attending members to visit and enjoy.
This year, the location being in the North West of England centred on the Holiday Inn Express, Preston.
Friend Peter Rose joined me for what turned out to be a sometimes wet, but very enjoyable weekend.
As we have done before, we have combined all the images we have gathered.
The credits being joint D.Basford/P.M.Rose.
An hour lunch break was taken in Bolton where, inevitably, interest centred on the bus station.
The arrival of a large group of mainly men, mainly wearing Hi-Viz vests, many armed with cameras and jostling to take pictures provoked a lot of good natured banter with the local population.
I was asked twice by passers-by if the King was coming!
An interesting first look at ‘Tyrers’ because we were to visit all three of their local depots on the following morning.
An elegant and stylish livery which appears to have been designed rather than just having paint thrown at the bus.
New to ‘Centrewest’ No. VN37960 but acquired from ‘Tower Transit’ with the same fleet number.
First London route 31: Camden Town Station - White City, Bus Station
Departing Swiss Cottage (L)
Just watched Skyfall at the IMAX Swiss Cottage; not as good as critics were describing it, but still worth buying on DVD. Nevertheless, is this another very odd-working for a Westbourne Park route well-known for its nine-year non-stop use of Wright Eclipse Geminis, or is this the future of the 31s and 328s?

Master Sgt. Karen Griffin informs the jammer drive which way to turn to get the GBU -31 into position to be loaded onto an F-35A Lightning II Aug. 27, 2013, at Eglin Air Force Base, Fla. This marked the first time Airmen have loaded weapons onto the new joint strike fighter at Eglin AFB. The weapons load procedures perfected by the 33rd Maintenance Group Airmen will be taught to maintenance students in the future. Griffin is assigned to the 33rd MXG.
