Turning To Trainspotting

What does an average bus driver do when, having cleaned the bus and waits for the return journey? The answer is not a lot. Books, radio and other media sources. DVD's are now out, as it means having to run the engine so that the battery won't go flat, thereby wasting diesel.

So, today, as there are tropical showers and the coach park is next to a railway line, I have turned into a train spotter. It is difficult to sleep. As soon as you have dropped off, an express comes whining through. The loudest train is the Tesco train (pictured above) where they proudly trumpet that they are using less CO2 emissions.

No doubt there will be someone saying ... every little helps. Not for a sleeping bus driver it doesn't.
