Hello and welcome to my Blog, my name is Chris, a bus driver for First Mendip based in Wells, Somerset. I am Chair and H&S rep for the depot branch of Unite the Union. Married to Fiona, we live in Midsomer Norton near Bath, with Boots the cat. My main hobby is Amateur Radio and I hold the call sign G4KVI. I am the repeater keeper for GB3UB and MB7UB. I have a fascination for the weather and all things to do with nature and science. As a Christian I worship, when shifts allow at St. Nicholas Church in Radstock. These are my observations on my life, both at work and at home.

Reversing

One of the most dangerous manoeuvres you can do with a bus is to reverse. To avoid this we are trained to try a stop getting in to a difficult situation in the first place. This is not always easy and I have only had to reverse on the road on only a few occasions. All of these filled me with dread. This highlights how things can go disastrously wrong.
