Renowning in Norwich and New BorderBus arrival

This morning i headed over to the 'Fine City', Norwich, to try and hunt down all of the Volvo B10BLE Wright Renowns that are on loan from FirstYorkshire to cover repaints. Within minutes of me being on Castle Meadow, one came, then another! 60621 R784WKW was the first to arrive.
60621 working a 14A to Wymondham.
 A few minutes later, sister 60618 R781WKW appeared on the 13 to Attleborough.
60618 was employed on the 13 route.
 I then had a few rides to N&N Hospital to Sprowston on 66112 R912BOU with literally, the best driver ever. I had been having a conversation with him on Castle Meadow about them and he said "They are lovely buses to drive, I've just had 60621 on the 14s and i have to say, for a 1997 vehicle, they are so nice, they go smoothly, they have brilliant steering, and so comfortable".
66112 at Sprowston terminus.
Today has been an interesting day for the 39, with 45116, 42921, 47508 and 47511 being employed on it.
47511 at Castle Meadow bound for Lakenham.

 Now, the moment you've all been waiting for..........BorderBus' new vehicle!!!!!

Today, the amazing BorderBus received a brand new ADL Enviro200. It carries registration SN15LLA and is fitted with a ZF gearbox that reduces fuel consumption by 20%. I am informed she will be on loan for this week.
