Still not been spotted. Sit discretely with the phone filiming the bus.
More likely now, as (I will not mention his name, he's not a member) the kid with the "West Midlands Buses hi-vis" had followed me to school all last week talking to me, and came up to me on friday while I was waiting for the 902 - which I discretely filmed again.

Only clue: Plantsbrook Uniform with black tie. Usually in Sutton between 15:20-16:30 depending on day.

Think I've seen that kid a couple of times, both of them while I've been on Crimson vehicles (1871 & 4799).

I'm not the most obvious spotter (unless it's a weekend!) but the ginger hair is a bit of an easy clue. That, and the camera bag! Not usually one to stay in one location, but the most likely places to see me are Wolverhampton and Walsall, and anywhere else in the West Midlands or East Midlands, if I have time.

I think I've been spotted 3 or 4 times
Hypocrites are like flares... a right pain if one goes near you, and really annoying to get rid of...

Well he likes to chat to me on the way to school when getting off 904e... Even though I'm in year 11 and him in year 8!
Still, I am very discrete and have not been spotted myself.

Mondays I am there around 16:20ish.

I have heard about this kid. Apparently goes around in uniform and uses the Wayfarer. You should tell him to be careful since he could get drivers sacked.

I was told he had permission of some kind. Both he and the driver said he had spoken to a manager at PB, so would guess he can only do it on PB buses.

He only uses the Wayfarer when certain drivers are driving. He wanted me to add a driver on my personal facebook, but will only add people I have met on that one. As for the other one, anyone I have spoken to online on some sort of forum.

As for uniform, he has the tie. He also has the real hi-vis now, he was doing car-park duty at the school open evening wearing it.

No, the driver should tell him!

I think I know which driver it is, as he tried to make me add him on my personal facebook rather than my one for people from forums/online. That driver wouldn't tell him off at all, considering as he asked that driver if he could do it on the 904E (set it to the 874).

Well he shouldn't I'm sorry if I sound harsh but this is stupid! Thing is drivers are employed to do there job and what if a passenger saw this an reported him I bet the driver wouldn't let him then!

I mean if a driver can get 12 months for talking to a passenger this can result in a sacking. @Tony Is this not bad on the drivers side considering he is letting it happen

I don't think anyone on that specific 904E would report him. All school kids from Plantsbrook, Sutton Girls, John Willmott, Fairfax and Bishop Vesey.

And this all started saying I haven't been spotted which is incorrect because (it was kind of planned) ended up sitting behind trident4370 and he knew I was there.

If a kid put there arm throufh and tried to press my wayfarer I wouldn't be best pleased!
