It seems that New Adventure Travel are short of drivers in Pontypridd at the moment, and they have resorted to using contractors to drive their vehicles. The gentleman concerned had a few hours spare, whilst his reindeer were being serviced, and so kindly offered to do a trip to Nantgarw and back. Strangely enough, I never knew Mr S Claus needed a PCV licence to drive his sledge - must be some new legislation that I wasn't aware of. The old geezer in the red suit and white beard was rewarded with a plate of hot mince pies and something to keep the cold out. Unfortunately, when he left the bus with his sack of goodies, Santa was disappointed to find that about a dozen prezzies had 'walked' and there were a number of used bus tickets left instead!
