No balance due for 2008, your purchase for 2009 is now registered and guarantees an air-conditioned bus, fully automated and computer controlled with cutting edge technology. Each day it departs from the corner of Tolerance road and Take it Easy Street. First section was designed by Walter De La Mare, "Softly along the road of evening, in a twilight dim with rose, wrinkled with age and drenched with dew, old Nod the shepherd goes "
