Just want to let everyone know how it went today which Kev and andy will agree both 1449 and 1551 had full loads every trip and we ended up doing 4 tours today
1200, 1330, 1430 and 1500 the 1430 being a duplicate duty s there was that many people using them also the collection box on 1449 was full not sure on 1551 so yet another sucsessful week and hopefully all being well next sunday will be also
Once again the Bad weather that has plagued everywhere else just about manages to hold off to give you another good day .

We had a little rain not much round 1310 for 5 mins so not that bad
Looking ahead for Sunday the tours should be 1449 and 1551 again as from Tommorow for over a week its going to be wall to wall sun with a heat wave due
I'm so pleased that the Sunday tours are working out well. Hats off to all involved. Southport needs open top tours & the holiday makers love it and not just because it's free as the collection boxes go to show.
Once again very busy doday I was one of the 2 wearing the HI-VIZ giving people info about the tours
We had to run a couple of extra tours today because every trip was basically full
Quite disappointed there no mention of the Runing Day souvenir programme yet on MTT site for the Running Day, i know they don't print & send the programme until the week of the Running Day but you can normally order one in advance.
BTW if it's possible i'd love to see the old 72 operating, it followed the 4 & 5 down Menlove Avenue, but carried straight on where the 4 & 5 turn on to Woolton Road, so can divert to LSP.
Today has yet been another busy day in Southport for MTT with the last trip being cut short due to very bad weather but been another great day

Rest assured that programmes will be available in advance again this year very shortly.
Anyone who wants one can order one from:
Merseyside Transport Trust,
3 Sunflower Close,
Bold,
St Helens,
Lancashire,
WA9 4ZT
And it is still the recession busing price of £5!
