Have you seen the state of windows on the bendies on route 207,
especially at the rear?

One can hardly see through them, such is the state of engravured
vandalism on these windows. This is a disgrace, and is only the natural
consequence of having such a large vehicle over which the driver has
only minimal control.

I am used to bendies on route 521, which at least are largely used by
more civilised passengers, and they have remained in reasonably good
nick. That is not to say that they are wholly incompatible with the
streets on which they run (all Southbound traffic in Waterloo Road
having been interrupted for about 10 minutes on Friday whilst one
attempted to turn into Sandell Street and blocked the entire junction
whilst he decided what to do - do these buses have a reverse gear?!)

Peter, if your predictions of widescale bendies come true, I shall
emigrate. Not sure that they will, though since even the Commander of
the British Empire (a.k.a. Peter Hendy-Bendy, C.B.E.) who has wreaked
this havoc on London appears to be less enthusiastic than he once was.

Marc.
