  a coach driver from rawmarsh has been honoured for bravery after saving a group of mexborough coach passengers from their blazing bus.. jamie addison, along with colleague allan sawyer from sheffield, received the confederation of passenger transport's dennis ellis memorial award 2007 at a special dinner along with a prize of 200 and a trophy each.

  in addition, they won the national express's network monthly employee award and a cheque for 100 each and were short listed for the national annual prize.

  i do wonder how 40+ people could walk past a disabled guy and leave him on the coach, but fortunately a total stranger risked his life and saved him too.

  I thought the same thing.

  did anyone go and get a tattoo after you left, either because you really wanted too or because you just wanted to rebel.. i got one done about a year afterwards.

  it's a black widow: i've got another 3 lined up.. .

  i know brent r. had a thread on this yesterday or day before , but in honor of my personal all-time favorite group, i had to write a few things here !

  if some of you have seen the u-tube of them performing songs with john bonham's son jason on drums , it was an incredible performance !

  watching their expertise on " stairway to heaven " and " kashmir " was like being back in high school again, like they never went away !

  I just saw a clip of them on the news yesterday or the day before. They were playing somewhere to a sold out crowd and they still looked and sounded wonderful!

  (((((whyamihere))))), I am so sorry. That is so sad. I've only had my little dog for 3 years, but I can't imagine my life without him. I'm sure your Oliver loves you as much as you love him. I wish you the strength to get through what needs to be done for your poor dog.

  Sorry, Noni. I don't know anything about ebay, just looked at it for the first time the other day. If it is fake, that sucks and isn't right at all. I would stop payment.

  Darkuncle sells stuff on ebay, he might be able to offer advice.
