Why don't you just relax a little. You know why the buses are allocated slightly surprisingly at the moment. It's only temporary. How the depot allocate their vehicles, is up to them, not you.

I'll ask Arriva to give you a ring in the morning to make sure their allocation suits you... Sod anyone else.
