Oh Sweet Moses!!!


WARNING: Post may contain a rant! Bus Eireann lovers are advised to look away now!



Thank goodness for Matthews Coaches!

Never again will I step foot onto a Bus Eireann bus!
It was the single "most creepiest" experience of my life (...Involving buses)



Ok so its Monday, class ends late, I walk to the bus knowing that its never on time! Of course this is the one day its super early! I walk around the corner and see it at the stop. Knowing i'll look like an ass if I run for it and miss it, I just casually walk a little faster...No use, it pulled off! (I wasn't even getting on that bus anyway!)

Dilemma!? Wait an hour for Matthews or get Bus Eireann? I decide to wait for Bus Eireann...Oh what a mistake! After a while the people at the bus stop began to stir...the bus must be coming! I looked off to the right and all I could see was a rickity mustard coloured bus chugging down the road! "This CAN'T be it!"...Yup...It was!


Don't be fooled into thinking your getting value for money!
Its cheap for a reason!


I felt like KEVIN in Home Alone 2 when he gets stuck between the rocks and the scary pigeon lady is coming after him! That bus was not a fun place!

I found a seat close to the front so I didn't have to venture too far into the unknown! I sit down in who knows what AND I felt like I was sitting on the engine of a boeing 747! (Well actually maybe not! It only went like 4mph)

But I wasn't alone...apparently "RYAN WAZ ERE - JUNE 6 - 04 - SHAM". It was also nice to see that it hadn't been cleaned in 3 years! What made it even better?... The flies "humping" there way across the roof! (How is that even possible?)


DON'T travel with these people



Oh it goes on...It smelt like musty old men (Not that I go round smelling musty old men!) and when I "tried" to look out the window I went blind. I honestly thought I'd lost some of my vision...Why? because the window was covered in Vaseline, as you do!? To put it politely WTF?

The best of the rest?...

1) Helping an old lady find the green page so she could play Bingo on LMFM!

2) Passengers fighting with the "ignorant" driver

3) The guy touching himself

and

4) The cellotape holding the steering wheel on!


The joys of travelling with Bus Eireann



How people do it every day I'll never know, but I do know I'll never get them again! The extra money each week sure is worth it!

Matthews Coaches I love you! I will never betray you again! I'll wait in rain, hail and snow until you show up and I really can't wait to see you tomorrow!
