LICHFIELD TOUR | 16TH NOVEMBER 2017
Still somewhat bleary-eyed from the
early start, I peered through the small
gap between two adverts adorning the
windows of the Vapouround bus.
As you will have seen, our trusty bus
can be spotted pretty much anywhere
where there’s enough space to park, so
I get to see all sorts of places of varying
sizes, demographics and architecture
while travelling as the official journalist-
on-board. So while the winter wind was
far from enticing, the prospect of setting
up shop in Lichfield’s beautiful city centre
was most appealing.
With everything ready to go and coffee
slowly working its way through my system
I eagerly awaited our first visitor of the
day. Passers-by certainly could not miss
our bright bus among the cathedral city’s
historic architecture and soon more and
people came by to see what we were all
about. The first puffed away on his mod
as he shared his story of going from a
20-a-day smoking habit to low-nicotine
vaping. He then checked his watch and
zipped off back to work, before popping
by again later to say goodbye.
