Thu, 30 Nov 2006 20:36:19 -0000
I have experience of First all over the country, but in York and York only
do they get away with a standard ¡ê1.80 single fare for a 1/2 mile journey.
In hull I can go 4.5 miles return for ¡ê2,20. The greedy ¡ê8ph drivers are to
blame, shame on them!!

Can I buy a National Express ticket at the coach stop?
30 Nov 2006 01:52:40 -0800
Hi all
possibly dumb question ... I've always assumed you could just turn
up at a National Express stop, wait for the coach to come along, and
pay your fare. I'm sure I've done this in the past ... Now these days,
if you go on the NE website, it's full of how to buy your ticket on the
web, etc - but you hav ...

Coaches:"No hot food"?
Mon, 27 Nov 2006 03:24:16 +0000

at the services are you routinely instructed that no hot food may be
brought on to the coach on your return?

Why can't you use the coach's on-board toilet when you're in a station?
Is it liable to overflow and spew uri ...

Bus Photography problems, Birmingham City Centre
Sat, 25 Nov 2006 14:24:51 +0000

Central Hall) for a lecture I'm doing shortly.
