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.

Rail Replacement Bus
Last night, due to engineering works I was forced to get a bus to my local station. Cursing my lack of forethought (I would have ridden to where the train ended if I'd bothered to check) I got on the bus that would've looked outdated in the 60s and plonked myself down next to a fairly attractive young woman engrossed in her iPod.
As the bus thundered its way down the A2, I realised I knew the song she was listening to. Trying my best to be subtle (not an easy task at the best of times) I edged a tiny bit closer, and concentrated all my meagre mental abilities on trying to work out where I recognised the riff from, forgetting where I was. I nodded along with it until it suddenly clicked and...
"And they all go hand in hand, hand in hand through their parklife! Know worra mean!"
It was then I remembered where I was. I know it's poor form to sing along to your own mp3 player in public, but what about someone else's?
