We set out in good time this morning with the PMP sales stock in the van and had passed over the Mersey canal viaduct on the M6 and then coming up to the M62 junction the fuel injector went for the fith time and the van has only done 44k since new and is specially adapted for Mandy to drive with all hand controls. We purchased Volkswaghen as we expected something reliable but at about 9000 miles per breakdown to has been a horror story. We limped off the motorway and managed to get back home via Warrington at slow speed, thankfully there aren't too many hills around here. Then we loaded a basic amount of DVD stock into Mandys Honda Jazz and then took the van to Northwich to the garage and then started out again for Morecambe. By now the weather had gone downhill and was wet for most of the afternoon. It was a good show at the Stagecoach depot although the Arriva commemorative bus was parked poorly for photography, was that on purpose? I managed to get an hour of film and will have the DVD on sale tomorrow at the Ribble Centenary show at the football stadium in Morecambe, we are nice and cosy with a reasonable selection of recent stock although not the cheapos we couldn't fit in the car. The stand is on the first floor and it is warm and dry something you may be glad of if the rain hits in the morning. A warm welcome however awaits you and all sales of the DVD Bus Spot Ultra Lancaster with Morecambe will help get the PMP Film Archive van back on the road. We saw lots of friends at the open day and look forward to seeing even more tomorrow. The disc for the open day DVD is ready to copy and I'll now get the cover made, phew!! Comments are closed.
