Went from Guisborough to Marske on the 81A, via the Green Lane estate which was tight in a minibus, never mind a B10BLE. Not the fittest of Volvo's it must be said (and we're due to get it at Stockton!) but at least the noise from it's fans did it's best to drown out the rave from the druggies phone!
Yeah you can sometimes get the odd passenger who is annoying as hell and it can make it an unpleasant experience, I did the 81 from Redcar to Stokesley a few weeks back and it was a nice peaceful quiet journey although when I rode it a Volvo B7TL was allocated.
