Hi - Is this it:

http://www.oxfordbusmuseum.org.uk/

"...Since the end of 2004 the Museum has also been home to another exhibition – the Morris Motors Museum, also financed by the Heritage Lottery Fund, telling the story of how cars and commercial vehicles were produced at Cowley. There are exhibitions of photographs, drawings and all kinds of memorabilia, together with an impressive display of vintage Morris vehicles, representing the earliest to the last. Entry is included in the Oxford Bus Museum admission price – two museums for the price of one!..."

Thanks Lee, it didn't get much support when I originally suggested it. Story of my life I'm afraid :(

Edit - Actually come to think of it, has anyone else experienced making a suggestion, having it poo hoo'd, and then a little later someone else makes the same suggestion, possibly the person that poo hoo'd it in the first place, and it's regarded as being brilliant. Probably just me becoming more cynical with age :roll: :wink: :D

I call it "upwards management" I've used thre trick so often that my guys wink at me when my manager puts my new idea down. We are thinking of having a sweep on which ideas come back and how long it takes.

Now there's an idea :wink:

As a manager, I always believed in TEAM, Together Everyone, Achieves, More (yes I did do the training courses Roger :D ), I wasn't wrong was I :wink:
