There have been many incidents over the years in the Land That God Forgot. So named by another bus driver because of the village's close resemblance to Royston Vasey in The League Of Gentlemen.
Today there had been a change. The Bairns, as the locals liked to call the youngsters, had not smashed the glass of the telephone box. They had graduated by stealing the door.
The saintly pensioner who always swept the glass up must have said a prayer of thanks as he did not have top get up early that morning.
This is a rare insight into the world of buses in North East England. It is seen through the eyes of a tall (6' 6 1/2" or 1.99m), distinctive middle aged bus driver who relies on a remark from one of his passengers as his motto: "You are better than some, but not as good as others." What occurs on my buses often defies belief and is usually funny. When I am not on the buses, it is a continued observation of the bizarre world around me.
