It's a big city. I had to learn how to use /ride the bus. I had not been on one since I was a child. I hadn't the faintest idea how to pay the fare. But they must be used to folks as I am because they were quite nice while being instructive. <br /><br />I thoroughly enjoyed being ferried about without worrying about parking and other drivers. :-)Ramblingonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00796934980023316493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7326467594382112544.post-19294751624989794232010-10-04T14:37:42.940+01:002010-10-04T14:37:42.940+01:00Thank you for your comment Light in a Box.

As we are usually travelling bus-wise for nothing with our concessionary passes, we don't notice that fares have risen hence the shock.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03565202952790011951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7326467594382112544.post-33591496326343578672010-10-04T14:08:28.704+01:002010-10-04T14:08:28.704+01:00Hello Technogran!

A witticism I learned at the NCO Academy way back in the last century seems to apply to the "logic" of rules and regulations dumped upon the unsuspecting public by the powers that be: "If you can't dazzle 'em with brilliance, baffle 'em with bull****!"Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08812329358511747697noreply@blogger.com
