Also reccy the roads before deciding on a route. I gave my bro a lift back to dorking from charlwood once and hit a pot-hole so big that it shorted my electrics out!

If you guys head up through Crawley try and take in the big roundabout with the traffic lights by County Oak retail park, i live in the flats by there on the top floor, could get some nice aerial shots of you all in convoy lol

Yeah I remember that. And wasn't it one of them that mowed down a pensioner in Ifield and in the bus station? They're a load of sh!t. I actually go out of my way to cut them up and do what I can to hold them up.

thats right, I remember Stacey telling me, it was before i moved down this way i think, the way they go flying across that roundabout does make me wonder why they dont have more accidents, amazes me when i see people walking across that lane on the middle of the roundabout, theres no lighting so a bus wouldnt see you till too late!

Its good to see them go plowing through the flood at the end of the lane on the roundabout. A mate of mine actually rode on one once, and he said its horrible when they use the "guided" lanes cos they bounce from side to side something chronic lol. Personally I would rather walk or get a taxi than use on of the crawley scutter busses. :lol:
