Default Buses Acceptable ?

Edward Cowling wrote in message ...
Everyone uses buses these days, they said.
Do they ? I still consider the bus as drop in
centres on wheels and would rather walk 5 miles
in the rain than use one.
What is the overall perception of them out there
in Internet land ??



I live in Central London, and in the last 10 weeks have used buses on just two occasions. AFAIAC, they're uncomfortable, frustrating and slow. IMHO, it's preferable to go by Underground, by bike, or walk, depending on the journey concerned.
