Bus was parked up at around 10:50. I know the event didn't officially start until 12 but is it just me who thinks that hour could have been used a bit more productively, do something to try and get peoples attention to the bus, even just have someone stand outside the bus to be present to say stuff related to the bus or hand timetables out or something instead of sitting on the bus talking amongst themselves, about the only difference at 11:50 when I came back was the Frequenta flag was positioned next to the door and the van for the bubble person was parked behind. Event did get underway at about 12 and I got the bag with Frequenta Fidget Spinner, small bottle of bubbles, and notepad and pencil but no timetables seemed to be available which when you are tying to promote a the service is poor.
Have to admit, I was in Newcastle, but did my best not to set foot outdoors!
