CT

I'll take my tongue firmly out of my cheek now and say that people should not believe rumours (unless they're by Fleetwood Mac), and certainly not ones that appear here.

I have no desire to ask tok about your resignation letter, and have not done so. The only knowledge I have about it is what you told me in the PM you sent me, and what you have just disclosed in your last message.

I doubt if anyone actually believed that you were a bus driver, or that it was delivered by a bus driver. My apologies if anyone (including you) took me seriously - they don't normally!

Now, back to kimbleworld we go, with tongues firmly planted in cheeks once more! Where does a No 32 go to anyway? Does anyone here get on it? Where's Holywood Mike? He's the Translink expert.

Tighty

If all you were offering CT was a "vehicle", was it your bus then?

Were you the driver? Can you confirm it was a no 32? Was CT's hand on the bus? Was there a letter in it?

All these questions and fewer will be answered in the next episode of SOAP.............. I mean SCOOP!






(or maybe not)

Cap'n, Altho' I did work in East Belfast - man and boy- for 20+ years I was never employed by Mr Verner Huebeck or any of his successors in Translink, therefore I can confirm I had nothing to do with the buses - alleged or otherwise -allegedly involved with rumours about CT. I also did not drive any of the ''welfare buses'' for any of the local ''commuity groups'' either !!

PS I am not sure if CT is annoyed by this thread or not - Surely he should be aware by now that anything from you -Tok and even myself - carries a big health warning !!

"Can you please deliver this letter for me young man; it is so frightfully urgent and the chap who gave it to me said it must get to Ravenhill tonight or he will be a marked man!"

It would appear the Nos 32 bus doesn't appear on the new Metro Service which has routes listed from 1 -12. I can only recall the 69-71 buses in old money.

THP- No not offended in anyway and indeed can you confirm that your exclusive deal will not interfere with any future publishing deals that might be on the table.

The Cap'n was kind enough to explain that my pm of him was to simply clarify my situation and not to further speculate on others.

Remember you're in "Kimbleworld" at the moment where left is right and right is left according to ballpark!


In the real world, that bus would be fine.

It also runs on natural gas - the URSC are considering hiring one for away trips - it'll cut the petrol bill!

Taking that one step further then Grumps does that mean the bus is actually a belch bus and not a fart bus :?

Well excuse me Roostie, but it seems to me there are at least two wheels on the jollipy in question, and unless it is on jacks, there are certainly two more round the other side.

TOK - Still a rather surprising way to have heard 'my side' which undoubtedly had everyone from Malone, the Cregagh & the Rosetta add their little bit for good measure.

As before how did that version compare to my letter of resignation?
