School bus shenanigans
For the most part I didn't like secondary school, but the highlight of every day was the bus journey..

1) As we were obviously the cool kids, we had the back row on the bottom of a double decker. Lame as it sounds now, we used to play 'Bundle' every time the bus went round a corner - just involved squashing everyone to one side of the bus. One day we were doing this and the fat kid in the corner started screaming..

'Guys, I'm hanging out the window!!'

'Shut up tubby, that window doesn't even open!' so we continued pushing without looking over.

It turns out we'd pushed so hard that the whole pane of glass had fallen out and smashed on the road and fatty was indeed hanging out of the window, hanging on for dear life..

Needless to say the bus driver went mental..

2) The same fat dude was also pretty gobby. One day he stuck his head out of one of the small sliding windows, and shouted 'Oi, Bitch' at some burly men digging up the road. He then tried to get his head in pretty quickly, and got his fat head stuck on his ears, so one of the workmen came over and punched him in the face. He cried. A lot.

3) There was another fat kid who was one of our friends. He was so lazy and couldn't be bothered to walk to the sweet shop after school so we'd go round and buy loads of stuff and then sell him 1 Malteser for a pound. My first ever get rich quick scheme.

4) A local bigger boy was throwing eggs at the bus one day, so our driver just calmly stopped the bus, turned round and said 'Off you go lads'. About 30 of us piled off the bus and taught the loser the error of his ways..

I don't know if the 928 bus is still running to Wycombe, but they were the best times I ever had.

was that the bus
that also went to the RGS, Beaconsfield and GX? The bus started in my time at JHGS - for the first 3 years or so we got the train to Wycombe and walked up the hill. Just posted about The Big Mac...
