Having recently bumped my head on the window of a "bendy"as it went over a
kerbstone making the left-hand turn into the terminal point at Waterloo
Road, I
went to remonstrate (politely) with the driver that this was not an
acceptable
standard of driving.

He agreed and apologised. We were then joined by the travelling tciket
inspector (or whatever they are called) who suggested that we (he, the
driver
and myself) form an action group to ban these ridiculously inappropriate
buses!

So, it would seem, that even some (or indeed many) staff are hardly fans
of
these monstrosities whose only fans seem to be that twit Londoner's
stupidly
elected as Mayor for the second time, and his acolyte Peter Bendy Hendy.


For what it's worth (not much, I know) I rather like the bendies. There are
some problems on some routes with bunching (73 and 25 seem to be the main
problems), but I think they're generally - when not running over kerbs at
least - a smoother and faster ride than other types of bus.

But then I always thought RMs looked good but were cramped and
uncomfortable, and would be perfectly happy never to travel on one again.

I realise I'm going against the grain here, but hey.
