Or are bus fares so cheap that nobody cares any longer?

Even: if tickets cost a pound apiece, why should you make a fuss?


For the record, at least one person knows the reference...


How long since we had 6-wheelers though, or even one with as little
as 97hp?


They still are 6-wheeler, but only on 2 axles. Most buses since the 1930s
have had 4 wheels on their rear axles. The last 3-axle 6-wheelers were the
pre-war LTs and trolleybuses.

Still, it's Monday morning tomorrow, and I think I have a gasman
coming to call...!
