Observed in barking today. Egg, was you driving in barking at like 12:45. you have a p.m Yea i probably was, was due at Barking about 1300 but was running on my leaders time (under instruction of course) so was about 15 mins early!!! I was the only driver of NV 173 all morning, when i arrived back at BX i was asked to dress it for the O2 Shuttle (which meant going through the whole friggin front blind set just to find the right display - got there in the end). so i presume it went out on the O2 service later that evening.
