Can't work out if it is laziness or plain stupidity
Clifton Hignett and Puylis are needed!!
I was starting to wonder if the Bank Holiday/are buses running brigade were part of another flash mob from here.
Never mind Clifford or Fyacebuk - wonder how the real Hignett and whatever his sidekick was called are reacting?
Dying to know if they are still in the pip with GNE!

There is an artwork near South Pelaw called the Lambton worm, the 34/34A passes within metres of this as it travels along Pelton Lane.

As for the 71 been called the Lambton Worm, whilst guess it's due to local folklore. In case some of you didn't realise, there's also a Wetherspoons pub in Sunderland called the Lambton Worm too.
Despite having lived on Hilda Park (which is yards from the artwork) it was only when you mentioned it previously, that I knew about the art on the lines. I spoke to others who live in the area and they were none the wiser either.
If the 34/a is named after a piece of art which not many people know about and is miles from where the story originates from anyway - then it is even more baffling than I initially thought.
