My Uncle Bill Tunnicliffe use to drive Newmans buses. He’s now 100!!! He was well known in Westport and then lived in Nelson, where he is still living in his own house. He has an amazing memory, especially for the buses.

Brian McIntyre Kerry his daughter, Bill and me. Kerry took him on a tour of rememberance because he often drove tours around New Zealand too. He’s 100 yrs and 5 months. He hardly has a wrinkle. He’s such a special Uncle. I love him to bits.
