Yesterday I asked for bus challenges.

Carolyn from The Happy Gang suggested this one: Get on a bus at one end of Princes Street, and try and sit on every single seat on the bus before you get to the other end of Princes Street.

This specific idea is obviously psychotic behaviour. Terrible idea. But what might be a good idea is making a map of a standard bus layout and keeping a note of which seat you sit in, with the aim of sitting in different seats until you have sat in every seat on the bus.

This seems a better idea and something I might try, cos we get stuck in our ways and usually sit in our favourite seat. My favourite seat is top deck, left hand side, about five seats back from the front.

Lynn from Happy Gang’s favourite is lower deck, right-hand-side, four back from the stairs.

What’s yours? And, will there be any more exciting bus chat in the next post/email? Stay tuned to find out.
