London Buses

[Peoplesoft bloke]

best bendy bus advice is to accelerate rapidly and cut in front of the bugger.

Do you drive a BMW?

In the absence of advice to the contrary I regrettably must conclude that like almost everything else in our shabby tulipehole of a capital, there is no courtesy or decency and the answer is just to do as the others do and push people out of the way. Fortunately as I am bigger than most people this should work OK for me, but it goes against the grain.

Don't have bendy buses around here, sorry can't offer any advice.

The back door. Don't ever bong your Oyster card, make sure you eat chips and play tinny (c)rap music on your mobile phone out loud.

Just be careful of the swarm of transport police and ticket inspectors at the Warren Street/Euston Road bus stops looking for their next victims.

I notice this almost every day as I speed past in my car.

I guess they got to boost "solved crime" figures somehow.

Been a while since I've been on a bus too.

I think you just ask the conductor as they escort you to your seat.

Last time that I caught a bus - upstairs was the smoking section. Is this not the case any more

[mailric]

don't you just run and jump on the back of one then give the conductor 10p when he comes round for the fares???

excluding airport buses from terminal to plane (and vice versa) I can't remember the last time I took a bus anywhere

Had to let limo go. Are there any "rules" about which door to get off from on bendy buses?

Get on through the back door and you don't have to buy a ticket.

(There's a Freudian joke in the somewhere....)

No

But that does not mean you can get on via both doors on a double decker
