Ummm...... I think I may have missed something here. Can someone please
explain it to me? I was only trying to be informative........ ![]() -- Remove "0" from from daveb07890 to reply "marika" wrote in message om...

We could even try to finely tune schedules and times and pick passengeres up and return them there the next day on time for thhe work day, so you could meet a carpool the next day and be back on schedule. . I have already submitted a leave slips with anticipation of not coming in a lot. I can understand how it will require very careful planning..., and see what happens. For route 24 the points are : Pimlico, Victoria, Trafalgar Sq, Tottenham Court Road, Warren Street, Mornington Crescent, Camden Town and Hampstead Heath. There are many stops in between certain timing points, like Victoria and Trafalgar Sq, whereas Mornington Crescent and Camden Town are quite close together. . However, many are so sick of snow and wet weather...I would really feel more comfortable if we have dry weather to deal with .I am just not looking forward to another day of stress if we get the 2-4 inches of snow , with more on the way , and having to struggle with driving in . I thought about how I could perhaps drive in vehicles up and then back down the next morning and not lost in trying to find my way. Also some stops are not suitable points to lose time, like if they are obstructing traffic flow. and see what may happen. . I told myself this morning as I was preparing to come in to work..."if I make it safely home again tonight, I will not return to work tomorrow....it's just too much stress trying to drive without incident to and from". My ex colleagues tell me it is very hard to lose time on some routes with very generous timetables. . I would love to move back. I know that they are predicting more snow The danger with tightening times is that if traffic does cause late running, services have to be curtailed, turned away from their usual destinations to get back on time and this is registered as lost mileage which in turn is a measure of performance. Well, here we are anticipating another snow storms. I'm ready to see it from a more relaxed standpoint...at home. mk5000 "Kate and I are lucky enough to be well away from the fires, but we're keeping a close eye on the Simi Valley blaze, which was quite visible from my uncle's house.
