To celebrate the 12th anniversary of the founding of the site, every day during November I’ll be bringing you one of my favourite photos from the past 12 years.
Today’s picture shows one of the most colourful overall advert buses of recent years.

It's long, it's pink, and it's right up your street!
Over the years, there have been many overall advert buses in the CIE fleets, some very bland, others amazingly colourful.
Cork’s DA5 is one that really sticks in my memory, advertising that famous Cork evening newspaper, the Echo.
I’m not sure exactly when I took this photo – I suspect it was around 1999.
The DA’s are now long gone from city service in Cork, having had an unusually short life for a Bus Eireann single-deck type.
