So farewell then
London Routemaster Buses
You were easy to get
On and off
(Except for the disabled)
I hate waiting
To get off from
The normal buses
In busy traffic.
“I can’t open the doors
Until we reach the next stop”,
Is what we are now told.
Can’t we be trusted any more?
Apparently not.

Still,
There’s always the no. 9
And no. 15 routes.
They are “heritage routes”!

Saturday Night/Sunday morning (from 15th Dec 03)

Saturday Night/Sunday morning was spent travelling on Charlotte’s Bus. Phil was driving which wasn’t a good idea, as he has no licence/insurance/idea what he’s doing. Not sure what Charlotte was thinking when she let him loose behind the wheel. I can’t remember where we were going, possibly on Holiday? Hmmm. Anyway Phil could only seem to operate one pedal, the accelerator, and so we careened past slow cars, up the verge of the motorway slipway and up a ramp over the road.

We hung in mid air, slow motion, before splashing down in a lake. Not good. I think Phil has been playing too much on Grand Theft Auto (as have I, presumably). The door would not open because of the water pressure, we were trapped! Calmly we packed up all our belongings and tried to ignore the mini-avid-merrion creature that was on board. It all went a bit blurry after that.

Previously that night me Phil and Hayley were practising the caterpillar in the front room. Everyone is sore. I did manage 10 caterpillar rolls in a row. Also injuries picked up from twisting to The Shangrai Las and electric shocks from cheap Christmas lights.
