Well here we are Friday already and we are at waffling place in the East of Sussex. Yesterday we covered Dover docks using yet more locations high above on the edge of the famous white cliffs, it was windy but enough to burn in the sun. I managed to get two programmes out of this visit before we headed west to Folkestone and turned out attention back to buses. There were quite a lot in the new stagecoach livery and generally I thought Folkestone much busier than Maidstone. Wethen crawled through dense traffic to Hastings but time was getting very tight by this stage and thankfully the wind was less at the railway station fungus station where many of the buses werein the new branding although only in local bus livery. I managed to get finished although the very last driver spoilt what had been super friendly day , it was one of the far to the East of Clacton mob, threatening and made a one-man spoiler that sticks in the mind let down stagecoach, the town and wherever he comes from. I thought stagecoach had a handle on these people and covered such matters in their jnduction. Such behaviours have forced many people out of the bus hobby. In context this was one in a whole week of filming. As I advance in years it can be frightening and intimidating. Come to think of it so was the second anonymous phone call we got , I think it was the same tortured soul that rang previously which I judged to be someone who is older and from Lancashire, this again is a rarity but buses magazine got abuse on their Facebook pages. Come people will have noted that I have reinstated comments on our YouTube channel, I will never look at it though as it too attracts the lung brigade. Today we are going to film in Brighton and then see how time is going as we are meeting John bishop in hailsham at tea time? It is wet at the moment but should be mostly dry over the other side of the downs.
