I did suggest that, tongue firmly in cheek, on another thread!

The FLF, 824 KDV, was moved from Camborne today on the first leg of it's journey to Kingsbridge where it will take place in the Running Day on Saturday. I was told it was stopping off on route for some attention, after it's stint on the 300.

I believe the 300 service is still operation this week however with the FLF on the way to Kingsbridge and the green VR out of service today I am not sure what was used on it.

First BoS are taking on the Former Quantock 300 after that companies demise. Don't know any more at this stage beyond some of the Quantock drivers having been approached

First quote last day as Saturday 27th, as with the open-top services.

As does all their publications and time tables.the council site also gives 27th as the last day.

Despite an autumnal afternoon, the 3.15-ish p.m. 17B open-topper was well loaded both top and bottom on leaving Pz Bus Stn, and too early for the schoolkids who sometimes throng these services.

We're in "pensioner" season now who are more interested in sightseeing and open top bus tours than young families.

When I was working in tourism over at Hayle August was always packed with families, and September was packed out with the "purple rinse brigade"

I've noticed an increase in Blue Rinse tours around here over the last week or two.

I guess in a couple of weeks the Turkey and Tinsel will start
