Hello and welcome to my Blog, my name is Chris, a bus driver for First West Of England based in Wells, Somerset. I am Chair 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 at St. Nicholas Church in Radstock. These are my observations on my life, both at work and at home.

Well off for a few days (legal break) Worked yesterday as a 'Rest Day' so a few extra pennies in the bank. Sunday today and for a change not working so managed to get to church today. Nice service and a baptism as well. was nice to catch up on people and thank the Lord for what he does for me. Also some good news about setting up The Christians Against Poverty centre at church.

How to book a National Express ticket
Well, not much going on last few days. Have a timetable change coming up so going on a route drive tomorrow. One thing I did think of was as customer was boarding I realized they had never travelled on a coach and had no idea of what to do.
So here is a few steps for getting from A to B.
Have a few days off now so will enjoy the break.
So here is a few steps for getting from A to B.
- Book your ticket. You can do this on line, via mobile phone or at a travel agent.
- Check your ticket. Make sure date a time is correct.
- Arrive in good time at your departure point (at least 10mins for departure)
- When called hand your ticket to the driver. They will check it and either mark it or tear off the counter foil.
- The driver should take your luggage and load in the hold. (Please note cases over 20kg will not be loaded by the driver)
- Board the coach and find a seat. There are no allocated seats.
- Make yourself comfortable.
- Listen to anything the driver says.
- Enjoy your trip.

Busy Day. And laws
Very busy today. had dupe on both up and back. Interesting to see with the law on mobile phones changing the number of people still using hand held phones. Why do they do it???
The other thing is the number of vehicles with lights outs. One of my passengers commented last week she had counted 100 vehicles with held lights out. She had too much time on her hands!!! But had a point.
