Off to Italy

Tomorrow morning veeeeeery early we leave for 4 days in Milan. My daughter lives there and although I’ve visited her before she’s recently bought, and done up, a new apartment so we off to see the new place as well as her. Hope to go and see The Last Supper again, visit the Duomo and lots of other things. I’ll try and get a picture of a local bus or two so that when we’re back and I post the pictures they’ll be relevant to the blog ;-)

Did an early duty today which was the Megabus feeder from Portsmouth, via Southampton, to Winchester followed by 2 hours of Park and Ride. Had a very irate lady come up to me at one of the stops in town saying I’d almost hit her when she was on the pavement, she placed this as nearly a mile back from where we now were. How she managed to get to this bus stop as a pedestrian and be there for my arrival is a mystery! I told her that I’d seen no one at the point she mentioned and that there was a Park and Ride bus going along there every 5 minutes at that time of day. She still insisted that it was me and “only a few minutes ago”. I told her I didn’t think it was possible but said that I was sorry if a bus had seemed to come close to her and that thankfully she seemed to be OK! She was obviously OK because she stamped off saying “I’m going to put a complaint in”.

    Maybe she was walking along the kerb? People do that all the time in Cambridge and the buses always have to slow to walking pace until they can overtake.
