One of our new service buses is officially finished! After new paint and vinyls last month we’ve had the seats retrimmed to freshen the inside up. You’d never know it was 9 years old!

28/08/2024

How is it only a week until the schools go back? 😮
I’m pleased to say we’ve picked up another school route over the summer and will be operating the 387 route to Stowupland from Needham market. Please can all students make sure they carry a pass as we will be checking daily.
Thanks!

A 3.30am start to kick off the bank holiday! One of our 70 seater coaches is out getting people from Ipswich to work as part of a daily contract. 😴 🚎

16/08/2024

Today marks the last day of a weeks rail replacement between Saxmundham and Ipswich. Our two new buses have performed faultlessly clocking 200 hours between them. As you can see, even our four legged friends travelled in style! 🐕 🚂 🚎

11/08/2024

Representing Thompsons at the annual The BIG Bus Show 2024. My three assistants helped clean the Coach up this morning.

08/08/2024

A quick pit stop on our way back from Heathrow this morning for a well needed coffee. We’re returning Thomas Mills from their Borneo Expedition and it’s a very sleepy bus! We’ve also got Care Uk in Felixstowe today and a local private hire to Bury St Edmunds. These summer 6 weeks are flying by 😅

04/08/2024

Yesterday marked the most important job of the year! Our very own James got married to the beautiful Hannah on what turned out to be a gorgeous summer afternoon full of drinking, dancing and fun. A massive congratulations to the both of them and we wish them all the very best for the future.
I’d also like to thank Pete and Danny for transporting the 100 guests for the day.
💍👰‍♀️🤵‍♂️

31/07/2024

A vast improvement in temperature from yesterday and a sea breeze on top! We’re at Southwold today with a group from Wetheringsett Manor. We’ve also got two vehicles at Sandringham Flower Show, one with our own group and another on hire to Felixstowe travel. 🌊🍦 🌷

30/07/2024

We’re at Chessington World of Adventure today helping our friends at Felixstowe Travel. We will always work alongside other operators where we can to make sure nobody misses out on a big day out!
🚎💨

26/07/2024

We’re out in force again today! We’ve just dropped The National Youth Choir off at Saffron Walden after a stay at Framlingham College. It’s been a very musical week all round 🎵🎶

24/07/2024

It’s a very busy Wednesday! We’ve got over 150 people at Ely Cathedral with Gabrieli from Holt today. We’ve also got some very excited children from Wetheringsett heading to Banham Zoo. All that alongside a group from Framlingham heading for Bury St Edmunds, I’d say we’re being kept on our toes during the holidays.
🎶🎵🐒🦁🚎💨🚎💨🚎💨

15/07/2024

What a day for the beach! We’re in Southwold with Earl Soham Primary today. We’ve also got Farlingaye at Pleasurewood Hills, Go Ape and Red Lodge go karting. One final push before the holidays. 🚎💨🏖️🧗🏻‍♂️

How good do these look! A massive thanks to Stickymoo for another fantastic job bringing our freshly painted new buses to life. That’s the whole fleet in full livery (until I buy something else 😬😅). Final push with a jam packed last week of the school term next week! 💪🚎🦃

09/07/2024

I need a favour from you lovely people! We’ve entered one of our service buses into a national competition for best livery. We’re in the small bus operator category and I would be really grateful if the people of Suffolk could lend me 2 minutes to vote for our Framlingham and surrounding landmarks themed design.
Follow the link and help us put our little town on the map!

Moody skies in Kendall this morning! We’ve dropped a Dance school from Ipswich in Blackpool for the weekend and found a lovely hotel for the driver to park safely and relax for the weekend ready for the return journey Monday! 🚎💨

We’ve teamed up with our good friends at Dan’s coach travel to offer high capacity transport for large school trips! Between us we have 5 70 seater coaches alongside our 53 seaters. So if your school is planning a Panto trip this year give us a call!

26/06/2024

What a day to pick to ride the London Eye and take a River Cruise! We’re in the big smoke with Leiston Primary and 61 excited children.
High capacity is the name of the game and it’s our specialty so why not save yourself an extra bus and give us a ring!

Say hello to the twins! 👧🏼 👧🏼

With the increasing workload year on year we’ve added these two 2015 Optare Metrocity 40 seat service buses, taking the total fleet size to 14 vehicles. They’re both fresh out of the paint shop and looking great in silver ready to have the blue graphics added in a few weeks.

They’ll be used on school and local swimming runs during the week and will be off further afield covering Rail Replacement for Greater Anglia at the weekends.

We’re very proud with how far we’ve come over the last 5 years and will continue to invest to maintain our hard earned reputation that’s been built over 4 generations. 🚎💨🚎💨

11/06/2024

Summer madness now in full swing! We’re at Ipswich waterfront with Thomas Mills and Woodbridge School, Hollowtrees Farm with Sidegate Primary and Bletchley park with Thomas Mills. We’ve also added to the fleet so watch this space for a Friday announcement! 👀

With everything that’s been going on lately I’ve realised that one of our latest vehicles was never introduced.

With more new arrivals in the next 2 weeks, watch this space!

65 students and 4 staff on one bus = unmatched value for money! I’m at Jump with Woodbridge school this sunny Friday afternoon.

We now operate three 70 seaters meaning we can transport large school groups whilst saving schools money and reducing our carbon footprint. What’s not to like!

With the two early factory runs back from the last run before Christmas it’s time to enjoy some downtime with our family and friends. I’d like to wish all our drivers, mechanics, office staff and cleaners the very best Christmas. I’d also like to thank all our customers who have kept us incredibly busy all year. We count ourselves very fortunate to have your support and wish you an equally relaxing Christmas. 🎅🎄🎅🎄🚎💨
