Missing Bus driver
 
Just had a fun afternoon with public transport, caught the bus about 1pm from fern gore to do my shopping & come back, ready to catch bus due at 1.30 but i got there 1.35 thinking bus was late hence a load of people waiting at bus station minutes go by & complaints were being speculated because a few had waited since 1.15 which is the one i got down town on.

Luckily there was a bus driver waiting with us that tried to track the bus down on phone - bus not reported broken down, during the speculation i let them know that the 1pm from fern gore had dropped people off in town i was one of them, so it was a case of tracking bus - luckily someone had spotted that the bus was indeed parked at stop near argos [where he drops us lot off to town] so this driver finds it & duely heads to the bustop where we all were. The driver had gone AWOL & must of left keys in bus [dunno about the money:eek:] 3 suposed bus journeys later we all arrive safely homeward bound.

Im sure when they get hold of the driver erm i'd hate to think, he must of got stuck in argos's queues LOL upto a mystery:confused:

Hey Accymel I just came up on that same bus! We were on the same bus and didn't know it!! :eek: Where did you get off? I got off at the top of Ormerod St.

Have you noticed that the buses in general up here don't seem to be able to keep to the timetable like they used to?

Wonder what happened to the driver.............................. shades of Marie Celeste.

Yes my kids were saying how they missed Mick. He always used to know where everybody got off and had the ticket ready almost before we got on.
