While Caroline and I are out with today’s fundraising coach trip to Macclesfield for the Treacle Market and then on to Bakewell, there’s still plenty happening back at the Heritage Bus Depot!

Adam, with help from Jack from South Staffs, after collecting some surplus tyres, is working on Atlantean 433. Apparently they’re sealing the replacement floor down… although judging by the activity in the back aisle, it looks suspiciously like Morris dancing practice to us! 🤷‍♂️😂

Meanwhile Alex and Tom are busy in the shop, welcoming visitors and showing people around.

So, another day of engagement, progress and practical work at NHVC — or dance practice, depending on who you ask. Sorry! 😄

🚍 THE DEPOT & COLLECTORS SHOP IS OPEN UNTIL 7PM TODAY
and we’re open again tomorrow.

While all that continues, Caroline and I will be back out on the road tomorrow with another fundraising coach trip, this time heading to the beautiful Malverns.

We still have seats available, so if you fancy a Bank Holiday Monday day out while directly supporting Nottingham Heritage Vehicles Charity, please take a look at the trip details and come along with us.

Every visit, shop purchase and coach booking helps us keep things moving.

Re-posted incase you missed it. If there’s anything from our surplus spares that’s of use, please let us know
