So... into ashby... theres the stop.. couple of Lesta fans waiting .. so im in the right place, bus arrives ontime and we are on the way... up the front on the top deck of a double dekker wonderfully smooth trip to the ground.. dropped off 100 metres from the gate, perfect.
Bus in...
Great game... finished 0 - 0 but City played top drawer football and looked a quality side, if they can actually put a few in the net.. we will be a top 6 side again.
A 100 metre walk and back on the bus... brilliant, arrive back in ashby at 6.20... brilliant, bus due at 6.53, just sit at the stop until then all good... 6.53... no bus.... 7.00 no bus.... 7.05 no bus... phone call to the bus company... "oh, it hasnt arrived? well it is a saturday, they might be busy...no i cant tell you when it will arrive"... 7.10 no bus.... 7.15 no bus...7.20 no bus... obvoiusly this aint coming... 7.25.. ring the taxi...grrrr home at 7.30.
And people wonder why i dislike public transport.
Ticket to game ... $58
Bus to ashby....... $9
Bus to and from game $18.50
Taxi home...........$15
Wow... $100.50 to see a game.. that is wayyyyyyyy too much, as i mentioned before, entertainment is expensive here.
Game 2 of Ker-plunk!, sees Glenn storm to an early lead.. wining again (16-17) now 2-0 up and clearly the future world Ker-plunk! champion
