At the end of May, I became a father with the birth of Evelyn Olivia Day. Since then, I've been through the most challenging, fantastic and life-changing experience I've ever had. Returning from paternity leave with quite a lot less sleep than I'm used to, my thoughts naturally drifted to the future and the world my daughter will grow up in. Back at my desk, I found the bus industry in a state of upheaval. Stagecoach, undergoing a takeover itself, purchased the Lea Interchange operation of Tower Transit for £20m. Go-Ahead Group had just accepted a £650m takeover bid, while FirstGroup rejected a purchase offer. It remains to be seen whether subsequent offers will be made for the company. Who will be next? It felt like I had been away for two years, not two weeks. |
