The Golden Age – Joe Frasier and Coach Hire
Good company, Bad Company and Coach Hire
So Ed Milliband is going to become the great arbiter of what is a good company and what is a bad company.
So BAe is a manufacturer – that makes it a good Company right? But it makes products whose aim is to kill people?
It is ironic that whilst 3,000 job losses represent a personal …
More for Less!
Welcome back – first blog since the madness of the coach hire industry summer.

Coach hire and the Economy
Surely the SURPRISE that the economy contracted in the 4th quarter is a reflection of how far economic forecasters are removed from the real world. Coach hire was very much in the real world.

Out with the old in with the new !
First post of the new year having being delayed by swine flu.
So last year saw us complete some 14,500 coach hire trips with a forecast of 20,000 plus for 2011.
