You shall go to the ball! Freshly deep cleaned and ready for a trip to Plymouth Bus Rally 2016, this former Western Greyhound Vario is seen here on its way to a sleepover in Mawnan Smith!

Part of a series of low-quality scans of low-quality photos from my very early vegging days.

Back in a time when I was far too young to think about working, let alone working for this particular company as I now do, OTS had an interesting selection of vehicles. My best guess is that this photo dates from around 2001.

This Leyland Tiger with Plaxton Paramount low driver body had just been acquired at the time and had assumed this registration from the short ex Tayside Tiger parked alongside.

I don't have records from the time to give any previous history of this vehicle unfortunately.

This very rare Reeve Burgess bodied Leyland Tiger seated just 35 and was apparently a bit of a slug to drive thanks to a slow automatic transmission.

I believe in this shot it was being readied for disposal, having donated it's cherished plate '873VRL' to a recently acquired 53 seat Tiger/Paramount. It was new as B835VSR to Tayside.

This Mercedes 408D 15 seat minibus had a strong Cornish pedigree, having worked for Cornwall Council Health Trust from new as G93AAF.

The museum closed about 2 years after this pic was taken and the exhibits were auctioned off at Sotheby’s in May 1993. I believe that at least some of the collection was bought by Flambards.

I wonder where it ended up after Lamanva closed.

At Staverton Rails & Ales August 2024. Another winning cask ale from the Cornish craft beer specialists. They are now showing that they can knock out some cracking cask ales of different styles. CAMRA describe this best bitter as "Light brown bitter with malty aroma. Hit of biscuit malt, minimal hops and dried fruits. Bitter finish with raspberry fruit."
