What a great story! Thanks for that Mike. ...@Mike:<br /> What a great story! Thanks for that Mike. Lucky that she survived then really, I suppose being a fairly new bus at the time they would have wanted to keep her going but still! Thank god your dad was ok anyway. Not something I'd want to go through, being hit by a lorry, especially when you can't do anything. <br /><br />@Anonymous:<br />Really? Have I just got my facts wrong. Some of the OTAs were definately based at Torpoint to run school services,. I thought 1056 was one of them!Laurence Mayhewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01619217735699476860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7712781400433441765.post-87810564272230176222010-04-24T23:51:33.448+01:002010-04-24T23:51:33.448+01:00Oi You! 1056 isn't a ferrybus lol ... was neve...Oi You! 1056 isn't a ferrybus lol ... was never convertedAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7712781400433441765.post-66745415797058034762010-04-24T21:00:19.600+01:002010-04-24T21:00:19.600+01:00Nice to see 1203 again.

I remember my father having a head on collision with a cattle lorry when driving it on a school run around the lanes in the North Hill/Trebartha area approx 20 years ago. It was a wet day, the lorry skidded on mud outside a farm gate and there was nowhere for him to go. My dad found money from his tray on the back seat. The fitters in Plymouth were surprised he climbed out uninjured as they were unable to get into the driving seat.Mikenoreply@blogger.com
