Sometimes I fail to understand why, unless they have shopping of course, people bring pushchairs on busses especially when they go 2 or three stops as if they don't have basically a granny walker just with a bairn inside.
I also can’t stress enough my agreement with the concessionary passes, they’re given out way too lightly for a start which is costing someone, somewhere a ridiculous amount of money. Really instead of being scrapped it needs to be managed better and handed out by the government and not by councils. I know in seaham I could go to citizens advice and tell a bunch of porkies with no proof and I’ll have it within a week.
