    A few pictures from a fine day out with a 1953 AEC Regal III coach and supporting cast around the Cotswolds on August 16th. Just for fun in the first shot the coach has been resprayed in Photoshop, you may also notice that the police officer sees the light and becomes the local Vicar!

    That tight turn at the top of the village. I used to take delight in swinging an artic around that corner. Both ways. Done at an appropriate speed it was always 'interesting' to see the look on the faces of drivers of opposing vehicles.:)

    No I do not currently volunteer
    Thats the best way to enjoy the unspoilt parts of the UK, by vintage transport, i can remember driving though the cotswolds on the way back from a car show, in my classic 2 seater, hood down, enjoying the run, and the looks of people as i drove past, far more enjoyable than my modern tin top
