Got the bus for the first time today in 3 years :(... Will be worth it when i pick her up in a weeks time. How do these people manage with no cars. There are some right weirdo's on the bus these days?!

I just got the best quote at the bodyshop ever, cant wait til its done!

So true... you have smelly people, kids shouting etc etc... + the bus prices have gone up... the only good thing about buses is you can bump into fit ladies...

Anyways... what you doing to ur car matey?
