What are they actually called? I mean, like Volvo B9TL or Alexander Dennis Enviro 400 and so on. Are they called Wrightbus New Bus For London or Wrightbus Borismaster on the registration documents?

no, WorstBus is always worst in every respect imaginable, obviously. --- old post above --- --- new post below --- i would tend to agree there, although please, not with "elected" politicians; we can see the result of that in London, with one mayor sweeping aside much loved national icons...

So having cunningly deflected dissent by going down alleyways of nitpicking, would anyone like to explain why mr. David Cameron is fit for office?

indeed. let Government keep their grasping little hands as far away as possible.

It may look like that on a Map, but it's not exactly a quiet, traffic-free stroll, along multi-lane highways with traffic thundering in all directions, and that's if you do know the way, and it's quiet easy to head off in the wrong direction altogether. Besides, if (as seems to be essential)...

So they don't use any less fuel, do they! They buy more fuel, then they use as much fuel as they always do, then they fill up all over again; therefore, they buy more full. The efforts by people to defend this attempt by the Government to rip people off will I'm sure be admired greatly...

Let me see if I can explain again. People rush out to fill up their tanks. They then use their car just as much as they usually would. They then have to fill up again. Therefore, they have bought more petrol. Particularly if, as explained a moment previously, there are then fresh rumours of...

Why would they need to buy more Petrol? well, let's think ... You fill up with Petrol today. You drive everywhere, as you usually would. Then you need to buy more Petrol, having used it up. Isn't that how it usually works? So having rushed out to fill up their tanks in anticipation of a strike...

See above. Of course they're making journeys they would not otherwise have done; they're making more journeys to the Petrol station for one thing, and again, do you think that people, having filled up, will then not use their cars until there are any Strikes? If the People are that stupid as to...

Seeing as, if there are any strikes at all, they won't be for weeks yet, are the people queuing up to buy now going to park their cars up and keep them in reserve until then? I doubt it. Theu're going to use them just as much as ever, aren't they, so then they'll need to buy more again before...

It says it all, I think, in one of the papers, the kind that you often find on Trains; "Rise in sales of Petrol: 81%. Extra Fuel Duty collected on Wednesday alone; £32m." It was either very, very stupid advice, or it wasn't stupid at all and Mr. Cameroon knew exactly what he was doing...

obviously the single-issue card works in some areas; in this, appealing to the Muslim vote. It's the same as how (for instance) U.S. Politicians will find the Irish or the Jewish vote lucrative. It's a strategy that will work in certain cases, but probably wouldn't translate to any significant...

They do suggest that you change betwen trains from Bournemouth and Bristol at Upwey to save a walk between the stations at Dorchester, although it's not very far.

It's hard to see what that means exactly; does it mean changing from one train arriving at that station to another train departing from that station? Well, as the only thing you'd be likely to interchange between there would be to get off one train from Bristol and get straight back on another...

So the campaign to, once again, depict the Unions as, all together now, Holding the Country to Ransom has begun, then. Perfectly standard Tory procedure, of course. Dramatise everything as much as they conceivably can ("We'll call in the Army!", make it seem as if the Future of Civilisation is...

They have 23 Olympians? I thought they'd got rid of them all, I'm rather pleased to hear that (since, as remarked above, if they did replace them witrh Super Low Floor Easy Access Buses, they'd be rattly old Darts.)

Basically, it seems, if I can get through all the waffle, the top 10 is all in London, except Glas Cen which is #9 and Birmingham NS which is #10. Euston is up 13%, but Birm N.S. is down 2% :( Meanwhile, 2 people interchanged at Dorchester West and 2 at Fishguard Harbour in 2009/10, but none at...

Written by Javier Morillo, I see, who I believe used to manage Barcelona.

You've gotta admit though, he looks the part... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWPBr4L1eyE&feature=related

there's still a number of the 462xx series ones still around; actually, I'd rather have one of them than an old low floor one, as they wear out rather quickly. --- old post above --- --- new post below --- I'm sorry? Olympians? Bad enough? Please, i'd rather have an Olympian than any cheap...
