An emotional presentation was given to Brian on his last day of route 63. He has been covering this route for the last 8 years, firstly with Windrush Transport, and then White's Coaches. Over the years he has made many friends whilst driving through the villages of Hinton Waldrist, Longworth, Appleton and Cumnor on his route to Oxford, and the passengers have expressed their regret that he will no longer be driving them. Mr. Alan Feast, Parish Councillor made a presentation on behalf of the people of Appleton who had made a collection.
Mr. Eric Auckland of Longworth Parish Council was also present and gave Brian a gift to mark the last day of Brian's route.
Brian would like to say 'thank you' to everyone that donated to his farewell present, and to those who sent cards and best wishes, and gave individual presents.
Brian would like to wish all his friends and passengers a fond farewell and the best of luck with the new service which will start on Monday.
