I am sure you all know by now that we employ a part time Transport Co-ordinator. Mrs Caroline Wilson has been in the post for some considerable time. She does not however sit in the office all day, so we trust you will be patient when telephoning the office & leave a message on the answerphone.
She will get back to you as soon as possible.

Our new bus is getting around the county & you might have seen it out & about in the new livery. We had the signwriting done by Sigma in Goodwick & are particularily pleased with the dragon's scales. We do hope you like it too. At least the bus will be noticed!
