In case I thought I was the only one out there (mad enough to be) doing this.....

I just wanted to take the opportunity to plug and thank other guys out there doing a similar thing, they probably think I'm mad since they usually have the one bus, where as me, I have four sources of trouble whereas they have just the one.....

One guy who has been plugging away at it for a while has been the owner of 2716, a Willoughby based mkIII Merc O305 - however other life circumstances have meant that he's had to sell his beast, hopefully one day he finds himself in the position to have his own again someday.
Here's a link to his blog
Mercedes Benz 2716

Another owned Merc 2843, I was lucky enough to ride this bus on the HCVA Mercedes Rally of 2012 and I really hoped it would work out, however it seems in this case it was a mix of problems with the bus and problems with where he stored the bus, nevertheless he and the bus parted ways, but it's still out there

Then of course there is the owner of 2199 who also has Mercedes Benz 2817
And of course the owner of 3037!

All things pre war
Some other older bus blogs - indeed the one for 1379 inspired me to start this one!
The red and cream decker - Leyland TD4 1579

And one for Albion 1615 which it would seem is in a hiatus 

Enjoy!!!
