WE ARE sorry your correspondent M J McCarthy (May 20) thinks we are being extravagant when registering our new buses. The numbers are far from cherished.
For a small premium anyone can choose a number that has some relevance and aids identification.
In the past we’ve thought it was worth it to celebrate our local-ness. Many of those numbers are already on their second, third or fourth host vehicles.
I hope M J McCarthy is pleased to hear that the latest additions to our fleet, due in the next few months have already been ordered with straightforward off-the-shelf numbers.
