Ha, didn't the 53 take a similar route as the 42 years ago, think I used to get one of them sometimes on my way to the Temple

 

I can't help you there GV - sorry I never caught them. These days the 53 goes from Ecclesfield to Lowedges , and the 42 ends up at Crystal Peaks.

 

I sometimes catch the 79 or 79a from the water tower straight through to Hillsborough park gates - and that is where my economising usually ends One bus trip a fortnight is quite enough for me.

I thought this thread was supposed to be about the head coach...

 

... not buses!

[Veritas]

I think it was the 101 that went to herdings, 105 was arbourthorne

 

I think that could be correct with the 102 possibly terminating at Gleadless townend

Mr Bloke - Take a chill pill please - conversations go this way

 

 

GV - I really want to pinch your phrase from earlier "I thought that castleboy was back!"

Think it was the number 53 IIRC which turned into the herdings went past the Cutlers and the terminated just before the old peoples home. The 53 went between Herdings and Lodge Moor and we used to do the round trip as kids for a laugh.

Or was it the 52? I'll go with 53, init a pain when you're getting older,LOL

But the 33 went to the Gaunt, full of drug dealers but I think its a lot better these days,

 

53 was Deerlands Avenue to Low Edges

42 Foxhill to Graves Park

51 Lodge Moor to Pinfold Street ( when they did away with 101,102 and 105 ) it 51 went to Gleadless Townend via Gleadless Common , at least they did when I was driving them

Nice to see someone got it anyway!

[potlegs]

A whoosh - from a really big Owl?............... You really should put a laughing/smiling face 'cos you just looked like you were being a mardy bum. The written word needs help

 

 

Now I get you have a sense of humour I won't take any notice of the emoticons you use

Wasn't always full of drug dealers, but was always a hard case boozer, no doubt about it, made most others look like nursery school. Always full as well, you had to be there when the doors opened at the weekend or you could not get a seat.
