If you click on the picture you will be able to read this story taken from "On Stage". It's about some new buses in Winchester that for some reason have been named after famous sheep like Dolly and Baa Baa Black Sheep.On Stage is a company news paper that gets sent to all the Stagecoach Depots every 3 months with little stories like this on in it. We used to get a couple of hundred copies, most (197) of which I took home, after everyone who wanted had taken their copy, to line the rats' cage. The rats have gone now, sadly, and most copies ended up in the bin. We only get a few copies these days. Stagecoach in Devon has been mentioned once, Torquay depot as far as I know has never had a mention. If you know differently you can always make a comment. Or if you have a story send it to me and I will send it on.
All the 12 drivers have been going round all day asking the same question, "What the hell are they doing in Long Road that can take 39 weeks?" I think I will email Torbay Council and ask them.

Should they not be asking:
"What the hell am I doing driving a 12 to Long road!"
Really is a bit of a mess up. Its only been a few weeks since the road opened again after they ruined the junction. I look forward to the increased traffic flow through Roselands. Oh Yay
Thanet depot gets a mention in On Stage, regarding our lady drivers (only a few pictured though). I don't think it's mentioned in the article but rumour has it we have one the highest numbers of lady drivers in any Stagecoach Depot.
Ah but Aldershot have the record number of Ghurkha drivers I should think...
At the college they said the current Long Road roadworks will finish at the end of this week.
