Past my driving test in a double-decker bus today, so that's another
category on my licence.

https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=4B0A14F72F6DE0D6&id=4b0a14f72f6de0d6%21258449&parId=4b0a14f72f6de0d6%210%2AL0xpdmVGb2xkZXJzL1BpY3R1cmVzL1NhdmVkIHBpY3R1cmVzL01hbnggTGlmZQ

The only blank slot on the back of the card is now C+E, which is for
an artic. Not sure if I can be bothered with that one.

I think he always favoured the "what's passed is past" approach to
other road users, so I guess he never neally understood the
difference?

Old cliches etc. but I always saw you as the conductor rather
than the driver.

I can so see you as a character in a 'On the Manx Buses'.

Cool. I guess you might get to drive on the route that goes from Ramsey
out to the back of beyond (The Lhen). We used it a couple of times
during our stay at Andreas when our compatriot had binned his Gran Passo
and was not able to ride, so we had the odd bus ride with him that week
in solidarity.

Congrats on that - I did consider adding it to mine years ago when I did
my C+E but I couldn't face having to deal with The Public - OTOH, the
IoM is undoubtedly better in that respect

Do it! - its the best of all! - admittedly there's not much scope on The
Island but I always found the challenge of getting round some tiny local
roads to be the best bits :-)
