Not just tonight, it seems to run empty most days with between 8am and 10am and 3pm and 5pm being its main peak time.

Always been a bus for the pensioners.
I used to live over that way a number of years ago (pre Magic Roundabout days), and it was only ever occupied by half fares - pensioners, kids... Very rarely had full fare paying passengers.
Quite like the 8 really, though I do think there is potential for that service to be improved.

Used to do rounds with drivers that I knew when they were on 18/19s... What a dire service. Best thing about it was the amount of layover you had if you kept your foot down.
