RF28 at home in Chipperfield

In 1997, Big Red's owner visits a Green Line cousin, 1951 vintage RF28 - LYF 379
which was then owned and much cared for by
Glynne Rees (Chipperfield) and John Ambrose (Hemel Hempstead) Hertfordshire.

Huh?  Who said he looks like Blakey in the TV series "On The Buses"?
<grin>
RF28 sports the HH (Hemel Hempstead) garage stencil with running number 28.
No-one seems to care if she can't make up her mind
if she is running on the Green Line 708 or Country area 352.

Glynne and John kindly let Eric get behind the wheel in a serious driving mode.
As Big Red had been off the road for so long, he was rather nervous!  Perhaps he had forgotten how to handle a pre-selective gearbox after all these years.
Nah!  He need not have worried.  It is like sex and riding a bicycle.  You never forget how to do it.  (You just sometimes don't get the chance for a while!)
Oooooh! The Feeling!
