The Velvet Bus Blog: On the Wagon
http://velvetbus.blogspot.com/2010/01/on-wagon.html
The Velvet Bus Blog. Saturday, 30 January 2010. An interesting day today, the highlight of which lasted no more than a couple of minutes! It was a typical Saturday, spent the morning and early afternoon washing buses and putting the world to rights in Brenhaul's rest room. Drove the second half of duty 56 - four hours on C3-C1 starting at 1500. Faced with the prospect of mounting repair bills and looking to build on a successful start to self-employment, Steve has decided to buy a new truck. Today wa...

The Velvet Bus Blog: August 2009

The Velvet Bus Blog. Sunday, 23 August 2009. Your award winning local bus company! We've won an award! OK, we may not be quite ready for Bus Operator of the Year yet, but you have to start somewhere, and it doesn't get much better than "Best Float" at Eastleigh Carnival! The real credit goes to Karen and the team at Refresher's Cafe, who decorated the bus and entertained the crowds. Steve J drove the bus and Marie and Becci also represented Velvet (in fancy dress! Sunday, 16 August 2009. Today, while giv...

The Velvet Bus Blog: October 2009
http://velvetbus.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
The Velvet Bus Blog. Thursday, 22 October 2009. Ok, here's a dilemma. Most journeys on route C offer low-floor buses and we have a small number of regular wheelchair users. Because of scheduling constraints and/or capacity issues, a small number of journeys use double deckers which are step entrance vehicles, not accessible to wheelchairs. Obviously we aspire to a 100% low-floor fleet one day, but we are not there yet. Two such journeys - the 1715 and 1815 C1 from Eastleigh - always feature double deckers.

The Velvet Bus Blog: December 2008

The Velvet Bus Blog. Sunday, 14 December 2008. Nothing to do with work this one. Went to see Delays. In Southampton last night. Awesome band, a great venue, great company (you know who you are) - just a fantastic night out! Sunday, 7 December 2008. End of an era. One of our founder members left yesterday. Jamie has decided that he wants to seek a fresh challenge somewhere else, and lucky Uni-link passengers can look forward to his services. There is nothing to do other than to pay the warmest of tributes...

The Velvet Bus Blog: Another Little Duck
http://velvetbus.blogspot.com/2010/02/another-little-duck.html
The Velvet Bus Blog. Tuesday, 2 February 2010. We were expecting Donald some time this week, but didn't really know when. In the event it came today! The first we knew about it was when I got a call from Rob at Brenhaul, asking if I'd ordered a hire car! Now they are pretty used to us using and abusing their address as a dropping-off point for anything too bulky to come to the office, so when some strange person turned up trying to deliver a car their suspicions immediately turned to us! Now the best way...

The Velvet Bus Blog: April 2010
http://velvetbus.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
The Velvet Bus Blog. Monday, 12 April 2010. My job involves me in some unusual tasks, so here is the story of how I ended up rooting around in the bins in Eastleigh Bus Station. Sharon came in on the C1 arriving at 0955 and handed over to Taz for the 1000 C3. Shortly afterwards she texted me. I speed-read the text and gathered that she had left a bag containing £20 in the cab of the bus she handed over. Please could I contact Taz and see if it was there, and let her know.

The Velvet Bus Blog. Tuesday, 28 October 2008. Louise has spent the last five minutes on the phone to a lady who has lost her keys. Except that she apparently looked and couldn't find them either. So, to recap, she claims she heard her keys fall on the floor of the bus. The driver and another passenger looked at the time, but couldn't see them. She rung last night to ask if they had been handed in. They hadn't. I said we'd check the bus again. We did - they weren't there. Where do we go next? Mikey - Cus...

The Velvet Bus Blog: July 2009
http://velvetbus.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
The Velvet Bus Blog. Sunday, 26 July 2009. Our new helpdesk solves this, as he can work productively on other jobs during the quiet times, while still being easily accessible to the public. We are hugely indebted to the Cafe at the Crossroads of Civilisation, as our helpdesk is situated in a corner of their newly opened ice cream parlour – could this be the only combined ice cream and bus information shop in the region? She peered in from outside, then stepped warily in through the open door. She spe...

What is a Corporate Identity? It’s not just a logo and stationery package! Corporate identity is the persona of a company which is designed to accord with and facilitate the attainment of business objectives. It is usually visibly manifested by way of branding and the use of trademarks. But a good corporate identity will manifest itself in three different ways:. Logos, stationery, brochures, website, uniforms, liveries, etc.). Advertising, public relations, guidelines, etc.). From initial audit to comple...
