Is Wank  
Havent got a car this week and am using buses. I now know why people use cars and wont use public transport even if you try and price them off of the road. Cant wait til I have my car back 
Its wank because:
> I Have to leave 45 mins earlier with a 20min walk at either end
> Buses are full of fuck ups, old tramps that smell and chavs that listen to music on the loud speaker on their phone
>Drivers cant drive for toffee (our one wouldn't give way to ANYTHING
> A return ticket cost £4.20 probably more then going via car 
In summary sorry mister Livingstone and co I will be keeping my car not matter how hard you try

£7-50 for a taxi as opposed to £1 for the bus here though 
A bus every 10 mins and taxis take 15 mins to arrive

I use the First York park and ride. The bus drivers are, for the most part wankers. They only wait for about 1 minute if that and drive off even when people are still walking towards the bus

Bus driver was better today jolly old fella with a beard, nice and friendly
Another down side of this bus lark is that I have to walk from work to the town centre to get it and it seems to involve me spending money. Brought two shirts and a pair of trousers today because there was a deal on in debenhams

Buses are expensive wank, in Bedford the drivers never seem to wait for the Green light, they just go through the red ones, and trains are no better.
