We were hoping to have the entire Ballymena five together for the 2010 calendar but this may not be possible.

What we will do is if that almost unknown item called the sun appears then we will do a photo of 1309, 1310 and 1313 together in the sun and will gladly send them DOWN to Ballymena.

For that matter DOWN is the correct term as in transport parlance UP is towards the Head Office (in this case Belfast) whereas down is to Ballymena. Equally on the railway the up line is from Ballymena to Belfast as is the up bus. As for Kells that surely has to be DOWN from Ballymena as it could not be UP. Neither can one be up to some of the comments passed on this board!

Finally, how many calendars do you want? Ideally one for everyone at Ballymena Bus and Rail Stations. How many is that and we will send them.

If you could send us down a big pile like last year. We would need one for the Inspectors Office, Pay In Office, and Ray and the Boys would need some up in the garage
