Have 3 new ex-Ulsterbus 70seaters. I presume they're the same as the ones the Pullman are operating.

Just so you all know, Godson's haven't taken on N653THO & RUI8265 (like it says on WYB), they were on short term loans.

Unknown as yet, but will let you know. Are these additional to the exisiting fleet or short term replacements? Not really sure you can class a 1990 G plate as "NEW".

They're additions, just to cover the extra work they have at the minute. Presume they'll be confined to schools to release other motors on to the 'proper' work.
Agreed the 1990 G plate isn't 'new'

Have 3 new ex-Ulsterbus 70seaters. I presume they're the same as the ones the Pullman are operating. Are you sure they may not even actually be coming from Pullman as a few buses are to be made redundant.

I thought my TV was on the blink this morning when the BBC ran the highlights from the Keepmoat. Leeds played, in First Pink shirts and shorts, I couldn't wear those colours, cannot be go for replica shirt sales is it?

Ha It suprisingly is, last year we had a shirt where a percentage of the sale fee was donated to charity. Those sales were massive. The shirt was pink.
Based on that, sales on the away shirt have been massive this year, along with the training/leisure wear that is pink.
Good game?

Just flicking through a few old favourites on flickr and have realised that the Plaxton Paramount that was reported as running in July 2011, G991 KJX was originally new to Godson's in 1990.
Over 20 years later and the circle has been complete!

Does anyone know if the ex-Ulsterbus Tigers are still running for Godsons, and if so, does anyone know which part of Leeds they will turn up on on schools?

TXI1357 is actually withdrawn, so there is only one on the road now.
Godsons operate the HG24, HG25, HG27 & CH28 with the 4 double decks and the Tiger.

I believe Godson's are expecting delivery of 2 King Long Coaches in the not too distant.
