A new experiment for tomorrow (Monday).. If you can see the map below then you should be able to follow me around my shift (or as long as my iPhone battery lasts). This map uses GPS tracking to locate where I am.
Be interesting to see what people make of it
You can also goto the direct map, Which is supposed to update automatically at http://www.instamapper.com/ext?key=15320019696317868336
Well last Friday fifth birthday of my blog, Who would’ve thought I’d keep to actually doing this for five years! LOL
So what’s happened in that time?
I’ve worked at Arriva, MK Metro, Parcelforce, Arriva, Centrebus, Transdev/London Sovereign, Arriva, MK Metro….
(No one is allowed to comment on my Work History ROFL)
I’m into year 3 of my IVA, and am much better off because of it…..
In the five years I’ve not found one bank account that does everything I want it to do. (Lynne/Dreamy River just loves the ongoing banking saga)….
I’ve worked for myself and sold the business on….
I wrote my first Ford Focus off on a concrete block….
I started a “MobLog“….
I’ve blogged about the Weather SIX times (!!)….
I have never won the ARRIVA Employee Photo Competition LOL….
My Psoriasis, in the grand scheme of things neither gets better or worse….
My Liver has gone from 100% to apparently 12% damaged and unrecoverable, back to 100% fit again :-S….
I’ve spent more time Driving the MK Bus Route 200 then any other….
I’ve changed mobile numbers god knows how many times….
I’ve made more friends through my blog than I ever thought possible!….
And I think the question I’ve been asked the most is “Where does the Bus to Luton go from?!”
Whoops Number 3:
So then, How does the Passenger either reach their ticket or put their smartcard into the machine excatly?!
Driving a Route 7 to Bletchley this morning….
Someone rings the bell outside ASDA, So I pull in at the next stop….
A woman gets off, Then turns around to me and says…
“Driver, Can you tell me where IKEA is please?”
Mmmmmmmmm…..(The Hot Chocolate, Not CowFacedRatBag)
I have some of these car stickers, expertly shown off my professional Matt here, to give away…
Anyone want one then get in contact 🙂
“One and a Half to Stony Stratford please”
“How old is the child please?”
“Under Sixteen”
“Yes, But how old are they please?”
“Fifthteen”
“That will be an Adult fare then, Child fares are only available for 14 Years and Under,
I really do wonder how some bus passengers manage to dress themselves and get out the front door on their own.
As you can clearly see there is a hole in this assault screen so you can reach in and get your Ticket…
Yet all afternoon I’ve been trying not to laugh as around 4 out of every 10 people have tried to put their hand through the plastic instead on the hole! LOL
Sunday:
I think ‘Professional Matt’ and ‘Mrs C’ are competing with each other in the saddo stakes 😉
