Hello everyone, I'll keep it brief (limited buffer on PS3).
I have always been into Road Transport. I joined British Leyland in 1969 as an Engineering Apprentice at Cowley. From 1972 until my (early) retirement in 2006 I was a computer programmer with the various owners of the computer department.
I collect diecasts. Mostly 1:50 and 1:76. I have a fair number of 1:76 Hong Kong buses though the supply of them to the UK seems to have dried up in recent years. I did buy one (on sale) the other day... image is from Oriental Model Buses site...

I always think 3 axle buses look impressive. Some HK buses have made it back to these shores for preservation.
I also make Plastic Kits. I have made a number of US and a few UK Trucks (1/24 or 1/25), but mostly cars. Revell did release a rather impressive Coach last year which I am plucking up the courage to make (painting is the main worry!)...
