Why am I not surprised about the busses :D


Would it also surprise you to know that I was a bus spotter.Perhaps don't answer that.

Now I think about it this worthy activity alerted me to the onset of KC, although I didn't realise that at the time.

I don't get any of this train/bus/plane spotting. I spot Star ships, space ships but they have more flashing lights...

My MP is Jeremy Wright (Con), but when the boundries change at the next election he will not be standing in our area.

My Father inlaw went to the local paper and they are doing a feature on the transport and I have already written to them. Did that when I wrote to my MP. It seems quite a lot of people have complained to the papers, but I am unsure of how many that may have contacted our MP too.
