Good morning from Norfolk!

I think I finally found a way to listen to this song without wanting to gouge my eyeballs out, yes, I hate Chappell Roan’s voice that much, also giving this song a punk spin is just perfect

Starting off today as a Nacton Nipper, 3s until 3!

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 21/07/2025
And then finished the day by taking my bus from the 93 onto the last eight that I had to run! All in a days work!

Well, this was unexpected, but very welcome as I got asked to cover a 93 instead of doing my 8s!z so

And we’re back to the grind with 97 on 13s! Actually really like this SR, best one I’ve driven!

Heading to Big Bus Show on 10th August? I’m running a feeder with the Preservation Group I’m in for those in Essex (plus a stop in Three Bridges because it’s local to the bus). Details below!

I could never tire of this view, it’s so pretty!

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 16/07/2025
And time to head out to Shotley twice!

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 16/07/2025
Okay but you really don’t need to avoid it

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 16/07/2025
Starting off my day going back to Colchester!

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 13/07/2025
What a fucking day that was, especially when we came to the rescue for anyone stranded in Godstone!

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 13/07/2025
Time for a badly kept secret, I’m the newest member of the SN53 KHR Preservation Group! You’ll see us at the Lowish Floor Running Day today!

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 12/07/2025
And some 15As to finish! Tomorrow is a very special day where I’m not at work, but will still be driving so watch this space!

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 12/07/2025
Start one day as we finish the last, 6 is with me this morning for more 5s!

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 11/07/2025
And some 5s to finish with Bus number 5!
010
Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 11/07/2025
Some 13s to start the day today. As far as these Optares go, other than the heat, 96 is a decent bus to drive!
010
Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 09/07/2025
Bus 81 tonight, this thing shifts well, just as well, I’m on the last 2 to Ipswich Hospital after this!

The 97 is so Pretty 😍

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 08/07/2025
Been a while since I brought a bus here!

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 07/07/2025
We’re out in Shotley just confirming my route knowledge and taking in the view 😍

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 05/07/2025
However, just before I left the depot to drive home, these turned up. Had to grab a snap!

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 05/07/2025
And that’s my working day over, but my day has a while to go yet!

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 05/07/2025
Today is gonna be a weird one, we’re starting off in Ipswich doing some 1s and 3s with bus 79!

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 04/07/2025
Good morning to everyone except the people on the A12 this morning, god I hate that road… anyway, we’ve got a Nipper on the Chantry’s today as 78 comes out for some 13s

Good morning Whitehouse!

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 28/06/2025
Starting the day strong with a Scania, after I had to find a route to work because it seems to be National Incompetence Day for car drivers in Colchester

I guess the Cosy Club wasn’t so cosy… seems to be a theme with that name

Good morning from Whitehouse where I’ve got 106 for 5 hours! Lovely bus this one!

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 23/06/2025
It was one of my childhood dreams to be a bus driver, after COVID, First we’re hiring so I applied and got in, since then I’ve been to a few companies, such as Stephensons, Konectbus & trentbarton. Ending up here at Ipswich Buses where I feel actually like a person, not a number

I will give you a pass because you’ve not been a bus enthusiast as long as the rest of us, but you cannot beat a Scania 😂

I’d die!!!

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 23/06/2025
Almost!

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 23/06/2025
Yeah, check its expiry date, it’ll be either a 1, 2 or 3 year renewal

Allie 🏳️‍⚧️ @ashleysx.co.uk · 23/06/2025
Ah, you’ll have a Medical Restricted license, have fun trying to renew it every year, take it from me, it’s a pain in the ass.

I’ve walked both up and down it drunk, do not recommend.
