I can confirm the surname "Colley". I was at school with someone with that surname whose Dad worked at Mines Rescue

Old Chesterfield / Re: Mobile Canteen at Brampton Terminus

Hi All,
The bus that Tony Peart mostly took to school - at least in the 1970s - was his AEC Regent that had previously been with York Pullman. Its livery was maroon, cream and orange, He acquired the Doncaster bus referred to in the article in the early 1980s. In the mid 1970s he also bought an AEC "Q" single deck vehicle that was previously owned by Silver Service who operated in the Matlock area, although I don't know what happened to that. At one stage, the York and Doncaster buses were kept at Sandtoft museum on the outskirts of Doncaster. Tony (although most of us knew him as "Dapper") was also the curator of a railway museum, which was shown in the Michael Portillo programme when it visited Doncaster.

Hi Everyone, Thanks for your response to this. Acorn came over and installed it within a week. The installer was very good and even helped to unpack my parents' food delivery!!. All that needs to happen now is for my parents to use it........

Chesterfield Discussion / Stair lifts
« on: December 02, 2014, 07:26:32 PM »
Hi, Can anyone recommend a company who sell/rent & install stairlifts? my parents are in their 80's and increasingly struggling to get around. A lift has been recommended by the hospital but as I don't live in the area have no idea who to contact. A search on DCCC trusted traders (which is very good for some things) primarily leads to providers of shopping scooters. I would be grateful for any information you can offer. Thanks
