Bee Network livery spotted in Manchester Piccadilly

Oh god, no it wouldn't. Yuck. Orange just looks vile on anything to my eye. It screams "B&Q"
I actually really like the yellow.

Do you remember the colour of the approved bus livery that was used in this region in the bygone days of SELNEC?

Slightly off topic but proper Block&Quayle is thus...

I actually do, as my mother grew up in Bolton during that time, and I have seen many pictures and the recent heritage repaint.
Vomit-inducing.

Ironically, Bees are also orange and black, which would have been much better

I think most people think of bees as yellow rather than orange. I certainly do.

As do I.

Ironically wasps are more uniformly yellow than bees, the latter tending to be more amber/orange if you get within “bee hi-five” range it’s very obvious.

But nobody wants to be associated with wasps.

But was that not introduced by people in local authority power "who knew best" in the same way as is the yellow livery under discussion is being discussed on this thread?
