I Must Admit...


...that I thought my hair looked alright. Then I was told that I needed to do my roots. Turned out that I'd misunderstood. What was meant was that I needed to do my routes. Consequently I spent the day riding as a passenger on various bus services across West Cumbria in order to learn timings and fare stages. Next week I'll be out driving with a mentor on actual services taking actual fares. Scary, real scary!

If you get lost, don't ask the people on the bus which way to go. You will end in in some far away place outside one of your passengers front door! And you wont get invited in for a cup of tea.

Good advice David! I was advised by one driver to reinforce route knowledge by driving them later in the day in the car. 'Spect I'll do that.
