scoop Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 You have my sympathy. I remember having to stand all the way from town to Woodseats with about 2 weeks to go. I was absolutley furious that people could be so ignorant. I had the last laugh though,someone at the back of the bus needed to get off but couldn't get past me due to my circumferance, he started panicking, thinking he was going to miss his stop, I just said "hmm this is very arkward isn't it?". Someone finally let me have a seat then, though I only had a couple of stops to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
