Thank you as always to @SLIDEYRIDE... lovely to speak to you again today x
and this from @arrivanorthwest is lovely "We hope this bus, dedicated to Peter Craven, keeps the memories of his racing achievements alive across Liverpool and the #Speedway community".🏁
English

Love this ❤️
Did a piece last yr about #Speedway legend Peter Craven & how there's no recognition for him in his hometown of #Liverpool.
@JohnPatrickMur1 saw it & has got a bus named after him. AND it's on route past Anfield as Peter was an #LFC fan.

@Claire_journo hi Claire. Peter's bus is now in service on the 26/27 routes in Liverpool. Both go by Anfield! Bus is all electric! Would you email me on murphyj241@gmail.com so I can give you further 'details'? God bless

@Humper42 Sorry meant to say Norman Wisdom presented in 62. Think it might have been Charlie Drake in 55
English

@Humper42 Defo world champs. Its not one of dads wins though. When dad won in 55 it was a different trophy. Norman Wisdom presented it. Looks like A Ronnie Moore or Briggo win.

@Claire_journo Thanks Claire lovely of you to say so. It was a great report, and was lovely to finally meet you at the memorial meeting.

@ChrisMo05483074 @Claire_journo Sorry to have missed you last night Chris. Really pleased for Dan he's great to watch. Think there was a fair bit of champagne for you to clean off the trophy.
