Lots of good stuff to do this weekend, including this bus event!!

Looking for something to do this Bank Holiday Monday (4th May)?

Look no further as our friends at Friends of King Alfred Buses are holding their Big Bus Day in Wi******er.

We will be supporting this event with Gur Arab 64 - FTR 511 'Southampton's most famous bus', which will be on display at St Catherine's Park & Ride.

See you there!

‘Twas the night before Christmas and the reindeer have gone on strike - something about not getting enough carrots!! 🎅🏻🥕🥕🥕 oh no! 😱

Adagio came to the rescue and Santa is filling up her coal bunker with gifts for all the girls and boys.

If you hear a chuffing noise in the night, it’s not the reindeer coughing, it’s an old faithful steam roller saving Christmas!!🎄 🎁

Happy Christmas to you all!!!
