sorry only about 25 persons on board. Then warning buzzer sounds and dashboard telling me to stop as low coolant level, ah bugger. I know Fleet services is about 4 mile away so with temp gauge normal and me checking mirrors for smoke etc! I ease off throttle and keep pressing the esc button on dash to stop the buzzer...stopping on the hard shoulder with passengers on ain't fun so best avoided. Pull into the HGV pumps where the water is/ check coach water its all gone and the whole engine bay is covered in coolant. Several phone calls later and tell passengers what's going on I start to refill coach coolant reservoir. The water hose's at fleet don't reach up to the filler so I fill a bucket but can't pour it into the hole! So after running around looking for a watering can or similar ended up using a bloody costa coffee cardboard cup/ dipping it in the bucket and filling reservoir....well some time and 3 bucket's worth of water reservoir is full. At this point another 032 coach in service has diverted into fleet to get my passengers/ he had enough seats so took them all. Now passenger free I am a lot happier! Well start engine and let it idle, go around back to check and oh no coolant levels dropping and I can see it pissing out from a tiny pipe that has split. Ok phone depo again and they will get local Volvo mechanic/recovery out be 60mins. Happy days I got no passengers so don't mind. Wander in and buy (£5.15!) a kfc....fookin hell tiny bag of fries/tiny coke/ and a nice zingy bugger, oh well. Wander back to coach just as Volvo mechanic arrives first thing he does is pass me this VOLVO SNACK BOX 
I said what if I died before you get here, he replied he would get to eat it Well it has a bottle of water/some healthy nut shite/small chocolate bar/one mint!/ and best bit last small tub of pringles! 
Well he fixed the coach and as its now 8pm I call depo hoping I can head home and not into London...he says come back to depo yay 
so double bonus I get to drive back in 'dead service' ie no passengers now these are my fav trips! also finish over 2 hours early but still paid for the whole duty...Bring on the breakdowns!! and my complimentary volvo snack box!
Just a counter down here...
