I travelled on the bus yesterday with a friend as we wanted to go shopping to a nearby town. |

I bet the bus driver would have loved to alight too. |

I hate it when parents let their kids scream for ie tiredness or just plain bored. |

Who remembers with nostalgia the late 'Screaming Lord Such'? :-D |

I remember him....maybe he started this piercing scream that we were never allowed to do,or let our children do. |

A mum was wheeling her screaming toddler out of a shop. He was obviously having a tantrum. We told her we admired her for not giving in. She grinned :-D |

I have not been on a bus outside of London in donkey's years. Obviously I am missing out. After "Educating Cardiff" maybe the sequel will be "Transporting Taffy". |

People do appear to find their phone more important than their child so why have the child when the phone has already given you a full life? |

I also hate it when parents let the children scream while they talk or listen to their music - or even as the other day just stare blankly into space. My granddaughter only travels by bus when she is with me so finds it all very exciting and we have wonderful chats. One day she was very excited and a bit loud at times so when we got off and people said goodbye to her I apologised to them for our constant chat. They said it was lovely to see a child being responded to instead of ignored! |

I rarely go on the bus,but Llandudno on a Saturday is chaotic,even at the end of school holidays so don't use the car. |

Last time I went on a train there was a lady who was, I would think,in her fifties and she was standing, holding a small child while two young lads were sitting down. |

No one seems to give up their seat anymore. :-( |

A few years back I used to travel home from Scotland by train on a Friday. On one occasion the train was particularly busy with many standing whilst at the same time others had bags etc on seats pretending to be oblivious to the situation. |

In 1986, obviously pregnant, I travelled daily by train to London and was never offered a seat. |

I wonder if a tall thin lady would have had more luck with those bags. |
