You would never get what you get up here: oap gets on bus, and has a scrape around for their pass. Takes two or three attempts to scan said pass. Has another scrape around this time in the Metro newspaper box. Meanwhile the drivers waiting for them to sit down.
And you don't have all the muppets legging it to the bus at the last minute during peak time only having the decency to offer a £20 note for a £1.50 fare. Should be like Lothian. Exact fare only and they never run late (only by a minute or 2 at the most).
