A delightful passenger on the 11 on City Road. Was casually driving along and just as I drive past a stop, I hear the bell. I slow down and look to see if there's any passengers waiting to alight that I may have missed. Nobody at all waiting. I then continue and by the time I get to the next stop, somebody comes running from the upper deck right at the back. They run down the stairs and begin mouthing off about how I should have stopped at the last stop blah blah blah. Then they begin swearing as I ignore them. Then they decide to squat and spit through a gap in the assault screen. As they spit, I slam the brakes on the bus and this lovely chap smashes his face of the pole at the front on Gemini's. Spit is on my trousers. He's in pain. I then open the door and he doesn't leave. Eventually he leaves.

I've heard that driving on the 11 can be an absolute pain. Is that true?

The funniest moment I have ever had was on Friday 26th July 2019 at 22.30 when the X8 turned up on time and left on time it was one of those hybrids off the WN1.I was in so much of a shock and in so much of a trance I fell over a Rabbis foot who was chanting the Torah as I strode down the top deck. I think he was so shocked with my very blonde hair and blue eyes he must have mistook me for the comic book character Foreskin Man it really must have really put the willies up him mind you I ended up falling flat bang on the top of a Jamaican woman sucking a Mivi....

For someone who hates the X8, you sure do have some funny moments on it.

Driving the 101 the other week I was waiting time at livery street and 2 eastern European lads get on and ask if this bus goes to west Mercia police station in Worcester, i explained to them that this bus goes handsworth not Worcester to which they looked confused, I sent them towards snow hill station anyway, no idea if they made it or not to Worcester
