I would like to thank Bristol, Eastern Coach Works and the Rushden Omnibus Preservation Society for making this all possible

It is also my honour to present the 'I'm going to keep going until I've built everything that came out of Swindom Works' Trophy to Robin of Northampton

too kind sir, too kind

I have to thank (blame?) my grandfather and father for force feeding me GodsWonderful Railway stories as a youngster and the serendipity of being born in Swindon!

do not ask for whom the hooter blasts for it hoots for thee!

Da Dahh!!! (fanfare plays in the background) and the winner of the Clipped Ticket Trophy for the most green bus (in a non-double-decker kind of way) award goes to Joooohhhnnn Dibben!!!!

BUT.............MY buses are greener than his bus, In fact, they are very very green...........yes they are........and when did HE last clip a ticket anyway.............BUT, do I even get CONSIDERED for the green bus award....................Does anyone even THINK for one minute of the countless and selfless hours I spend making my buses greener..........and does anyone ever mail me to say "thanks for the green one"...............40,000 downloads and one mail saying the green could be greener..............

You have not taken ANY care in this voting lark at all, and just cos HE's sucking you up, you don't HAVE to go all reciprocal and crawl.....................I'm not going to bother uploading my latest two GREEN buses now..................you'll have to put up with Hogwart's RED ones....................(as all proper locos should be).

Lively enough yet Gordon?...............

And why AWARDS are a BAD BAD idea......................

If thats what people think is going to happen, then id be more than happy to attempt getting it removed. That is far from my intentions and certainly not something i want to be associated with creating!

Oops thats pantomine isn't it. But just like in a panto the villain reveals his true colours in the end! Red he says Red!!! Oh lummy!

With a sprinkle of fairy dust and a woooshh! Peter Pan (dressed in green!) flys off to never land.

My Uncle Arthur came out of Swindon. I'll send pics if you like?

Sadly no longer with us, drawings are hard to come by.

Robin of Northampton's award is a trophy with a green base (Sherwood or Brunswick optional) with a copper capped lid of course.

As for that Bran chap. How dare you say your bus is greener! It was so old they've converted it into a lorry now! Tilling green is inferior only to Brunswick

As for sucking up. This an award ceremony. It's arbitory and sucking up is all part of the process

Forbury Lion gets his nomination in the best avatar depicting a class 47 in Civil Engineers "Dutch" livery.

JDJonny gets an award for living in the best place in the world. The 3600 hole golf course, known as Cornwall. That's despite nicking my initials.

Shove another log on the fire muther, it's warming up

Your getting warmer Dave

Don't go getting it removed LucaZone, the thread has the potential of being one of the funniest for ages. It's shaping up very nicely. Just as long as people don't take it too seriously. Real awards though, really don't think it's a good idea.
