The lower blind is slack, needs removing & replacing further around the spindle so it stays taut Idea
The blinds do look the business, fair do's! Who's going to be the first to get it photographed with the London destination set?!

Don't worry the paper in the windscreen wasn't on show yesterday, the blinds have been in for just over two weeks now.
I think it was just the lazy driver as he never changed the lower section of the blind all day.

Here's a photo of it from yesterday I've just uploaded, https://www.flickr.com/photos/thomasharr...32702562/.

Looking at some of the pictures of this free bus service photographs it seems as the service is free it seems to be picking up some of the local kids by the looks of it on it just because it is free , the same seem to happen on the E1 when that operated in Birkenhead.

RE: Stagecoach Chester & Wirral
Yeah I agree with you Wirralbus, the driver got a little frustrated yesterday with kids riding up and down screaming and shouting from the top deck. I don't think anyone would mind too much if they were sat down minding their own business and behaving as is usually the case, sadly the driver had to kick the little cherubs off after a while as a few other passengers had complained.

There should be a rule shown on board stating one free trip at a time, no repeat for say an hour to discourage these teenage joyriders as no-one's going to want to share the service with idiots like that.

If they really do think they're paying £190 per day to lease a 12-year old heap of junk then they're on another planet. You can lease a brand new double-decker for half that.

The Bluebirds were purchased outright by First. That Wrexham Council doesn't appear to know whether it or Stagecoach owns them doesn't really speak too well of their attention to matters financial.

Don't forget that they're also leasing the driver with that, but I agree that nearly £2k per day is outrageous for such an old vehicle.

It does speak volumes about the cluelessness of the council!

Does anyone know what buses will be operating the park and ride service for the golf open in Hoylake?
