grumpy bus drivers

Yesterday I had a few chances to go on merry bus rides in the capital. These bus drivers, however, were not very merry at all... though it is understandable that driving through London's traffic and showing a happy face aren't very likely to happen. Both of the drivers black, reminded me of Denzel Washington's stern look always making sure that justice has been done. I had bought a valid bus pass but mistakenly showed him the wrong ticket. This dude put on an extremely solemn face and actually bothered to tear the tiny piece of paper up in half. Quite scary. The other driver, equally annoying, insisted that I should purchase a ticket before stepping on the bus, despite me explaining to him a thousand times that the ticket machine would not function properly. It would be so disappointing if Ken Livingston takes away all those old hop-on hop-off buses.
