Bringing Aycliffe Business Park Together | 33 15. “I love working on Aycliffe Business Park, everything you need is here and there’s a good community spirit” 8. 19. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. What do you do? We have a small coach company that performs contracts, private hires, excursions, mini breaks and tours. Who have you worked for in the past? Nobody else... I’ve been fortunate enough to have worked for our family business since I left school. 8. 9. Best part of your job? Meeting people... both in our travel shop and out on the road when I drive the coaches. Is there anything about your job that you really don’t like? We still take the occasional late returns… there’s nothing worse than sitting outside a nightclub at 2.30am! Favourite thing about working on Aycliffe Business Park? I love it, everything you need is here and there’s a good community spirit. Which company/individual on the park do you do the most work with? Newton Press do all our printing. They do our office stationary as well as our ticket books, defect books, drivers work sheets and holiday brochures. Who’s your tip for future success? The whole region will benefit from the success of the Hitachi Rail Project. Four famous people you’d love to have round for dinner and why? RI’m a part-time musician, for years I’ve played in bands in my spare time so my dinner guests would all be famous song writers or musicians... Paul McCartney, Phil Collins, Elton John and Gary Barlow. If you could do something else in business, what would it be? It’d have to be music orientated... maybe my own a musical instrument shop. 15. 16. 10. Wh
