You wouldnt just leave a bus unsupervised in Whitmore Reans though really but thankfully the damage was minimal

You wouldn't leave ANYTHING unattended in Whitmore Reans, let alone a bus, a precious Spectra, which some idiot decided to take it and bash it around.

Sorry to sound presumptuous but what was it doing parked outside the driver's house in the first place? I can't think of many houses in Whitmore Reans that would fit a bus in front of!

its there or was! most school days. I bet the drivers of buses that use court road get really hacked off with trying to negotiate that tight turning with it there. cant be much fun either for the residents whose houses its blocking the precious daylight to aswell.
