today Matthew started the day in respite and we were on our way home from a holiday. It had been arranged for Uncle Dave to stay over at our house to wait for Matthew, whilst transport had been arranged for Matthew to come home some time in the morning. Due to a mix up the transport never came! Somebody saw the transport arrange on a Saturday and presumed it was a mistake and and canceled it. He got up around 07:00 and then had some breakfast. around 09:00 Whilst waiting in Heron Cross he went to the local shop and brought a few things such as some pop and a cake. On the way back we saw First Potteries 42727. we saw Wardle Transport 1647 going to Alton Towers pick up one of his friends. He also had some cake whilst he waited for something to happen. Some time in the morning Uncle Dave received a phone call telling him he had to come down to pick Matthew up! Uncle Dave walked up from Blurton as he had no change for a bus and then picked up Matthew with his bus pass just after 12:00. They then walked up to Blurton Road to wait for the bus back. Whilst there we saw First Potteries 40003 on a Hanley bound #23 service.

A few minutes later a Newstead bound #23A bus appeared and we got on it. It was First Potteries dud 40375.

After a short ride up to Blurton we got off and Matthew got another picture of this fine bus.

They then walked back and wait for us to return from our holiday. When we got back a little after 14:00 I had to show him all the pictures I had taken whilst away, and we had a take away delivered so we had time to sort a few thing out. After tea we settled down for the evening before going to bed...Mark.
