The bit about the modern passenger friendly buses got me. I'm sure First are wearing Rose tinted glasses if they think Arrows and Olympians are passenger friendly.

And the bit about reliable was another one - wasn't that long ago First were fined for the fact they were so unreliable lol.

I've caught the advert on the radio too and also must admit I couldn't keep a straight face. There's a few billboard ads too. Spotted one on Oldham Road in Miles Platting.

Meanwhile, a thought regarding the 18 extension. Does anybody know or seen any route learning going on by First drivers for the south Manchester section of the route? I know that Stagecoach did route learning in the run-up to the 50 extension to Salford Quays.
