Myself and Keith have always enjoyed the theatre but a night in London was so expensive

Train fare  Theatre tickets Meal out  so I started to think of a way of making it more affordable.

In April of 2003 I organised a mini bus for us and a few friends  we had a great time and then friends of friends started to ask about coming along.

I remember the very first show we did waiting for the coach, petrified that they might have forgotten us, or I might have forgotten to book it, and the relief when it pulled round the corner. It’s not always been easy  but it’s always been worth it, when people send me messages saying what a fab trip they have had. Our first year we only did 4 trips  every 3 months and I remember saying to Keith I might do one a month  I can’t repeat what he said on here apart from he didn’t think I would be able to fill 12 coaches a year! I took a chance and blimey look at us now. It’s hard work, buying the shows, negotiating better seats, paying up front (Keith hates that bit) and taking a chance I can sell them all  then trying to get the seating sorted  that is a nightmare trying to seat a party of five when I’ve only got even numbers of seats etc!  collecting the money in  trying to get everyone seated on the coach (sometimes it’s like a game of Tetris!!)etc etc  but somehow it works.

We expanded after Lock down and now do day trips  concert trips  4 day holidays  I’m open to any suggestions actually!

Our group has continued to grow and we have almost 12000 members on our facebook group

Ive loved meeting people  we have so many different types of members  mums and dads that bring their kids along to Lion King then a few years later they bring their younger kids along  we have a lot of solo travellers who have made some fantastic friends on our coaches

A huge huge thank you from Me to all of you  you have made this the success that it is

I look forward to seeing you on a coach soon

Much love
