Friday roundup

First things first - today, my left knee was sore again! Hopefully it will disappear before long. Normally it's the right leg that seems to jump about and trip me up - guess I "knee"d to keep an eye on these things! groan!

Spent the morning buying tickets online for next week's travels, and doing some research for tomorrow's adventure - weather permitting of course!

As a recap on recent stories...

Bus news sources - The Anglia Bus Page covers Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire and beyond, and is regularly updated with news and titbits. See it at www.busnews.org.uk

Chatteris - thebustocrookes explains what he meant, and you can also hear the song in question, here...

Ram-raiding in Royston - Yes, it was a ram raid (at the post office/store in Queens Road), and the Royston Crow had a story on it (part of the Herts24 news network). Police also noticed that a ticket machine was stolen from Ashwell Station (a few miles away) in a similar type of "pull & grab" effort.

Weight Loss - I did lose a few kilos, only to have it back on the next day. Not sure why. I have lost a little, but need to continue to try to lose a few more. Only a few more to go.

DON'T throw out those red Saver tickets...

... hmm, no u-turns to be smelt here...





"The current design will no longer be accepted on London Buses after 30 June, and we would advise anyone with spare tickets at home to use them over the next few months.

We will be happy to exchange tickets for the new style after 30 June 2007, subject to authentication. Please be patient as this may take some time, depending on volume of requests received."

So, this is of course different to what Transport for London were saying a few months ago (the press release has been moved to here)...

"The current design will no longer be accepted on London Buses after 30 June 30, and we would advise anyone with spare tickets at home to use them over the next four months as there will be no refund or exchange of tickets."


In other words, if you do have any left after the end of the month, do NOT bin them - as they WILL be exchangeable, and still valid for "eternity" - whenever that runs out next.
