Happy Easter

Yes. Happy Easter everyone. Consider this your Happy Easter card from me. And what better to adorn such a card with than an Alder Valley bus.


Alder Valley really were the greatest of all the bus companies. My favourite was the 444 - which ran from Aldershot Bus Station all the way to Reading Bus Station, taking in Yateley on the way. The thing that made Alder Valley special, I think, was their commitment to value for money. You didn't just get a simple bus ride from A to B. No way! They gave you A to Z, with complicated and convoluted rides through estate B, village C, other-estate D, long-cut E etc. Hop on the 444 and you saw the world.

So what better way to celebrate Easter than to celebrate Alder Valley (or, to give it its full name - The Thames Valley & Aldershot Omnibus Company). Happy Easter everyone!
