This is a question Buses

We've got a local bus driver who likes to pull away slowly just to see how far old ladies with shopping trollies will chase him down the road. By popular demand - tell us your thrilling bus anecdotes.

Thanks to glued eel for the suggestion

He's dead!
I've been quiet recently so my b3ta stories are a bit off - and some of you have found me on a motoring forum so please, be nice.

We were on a college "eduactional" trip to Amsterdam - We were given the choice, as 17 year olds, of Paris or Amsterdam.... Which would you choose?

Anyway, I digress (as always) - We were told (well, given the 'choice') or travel by plane of the infitessimally cheaper coach.

Coach it is then.

So coach. From Grantham to Amsterdam. Now, where was that sedative?

So we set off - hi ho hi ho, etc - I don't remember the time of day/night we set off, but we got about 30 minutes in to the trip and the novelty has worn off - properly.

So what to do - Moon out the back? Check. Swear at other cars? Check. Get yelled at. A lot. Check.

What now - drink. A lot.

Bored of that - now what? Pass out and sleep - fair enough, it's dary, we're all bored let's sleep - let's do just that.

(I'm getting there)

No we're all friends (mostly) but we haven't all seen each other sleep - and after this trip, most of us never want to see each other again, let alone be on the same course for another year.

Again, I digress...

My friend Zi (Zahir) falls asleep - he sleeps the sleep of the dead, it was rather freaky to be honest and nothing woke him - so we, being friends, did things to him (no, not that) to get him awake. But all we did was get him to loll his head backwards and to the side.

Which was when we noticed it - he slept with his eyes open - actually open - it was the freakiest thing you've ever seen. They were open a good 6-7mm. We thought he was pretending, but no - he really was asleep... It was freaky and we actually got the teacher down to him to check he was alive...

I know, I know - a long lead in to what was, frankly, a shit story :)

As you were :)
