Ever thought of doing stand-up ?

Going way back to when I used to visit my grandparents in Ebbw Vale as a kid I always remember the valley bus drivers being super friendly, almost a different species from Cardiff drivers.

To be fair and speaking as a Simon & Garfunkel fan, that is a cracking version. Very moody and dynamic.

'My' driver today was up there with one I came across about 15 years ago. The bus was a 45 and in those days it went to the end of Greenway Road and turned up Wentloog Road. However in this instance...

Is that music to carry out a mass slaughter to ?

Let's get a few facts rights before you make an even bigger fool of yourself. When a card is replaced THEY notify you, with the fail safe being that your old card will work until they supply a...

I would say that the vast majority of Cardiff Bus drivers are decent people but in all walks of life there are exceptions to the norm. And this guy was most certainly that.

Some are really witty...

Spot on William.

That's putting it mildly. He was quite aggressive and intransigent, not what you want from your friendly bus driver.

Thinking about it logically, did he think I'd nicked it or was using it...

Comprehension doesn't appear to be your forte does it ?

Before making such crass and uneducated comments read what I said again regarding my application. The procedure is that once you have...

Absolutely seething with a Cardiff Bus driver today, so much so that I've emailed them a lengthy complaint.

I was refused access to a bus because my pensioner's pass had expired 5 days ago. I told...

Due to the huge leap forward in training methods and taking a more scientific approach preparing swimmers for competition, you can't compare times set then with the current standards.

The greatest...

Yes he is Sludge. About a year ago he got out of a taxi in London, looking a little bit unsteady on his feet. My niece went over to help him out and he was extremely gracious and polite. It was only...

After hearing Stephen Graham's attempt at a Welsh accent in White House Farm that seems faintly amusing.

I felt so privileged watching my team in an FA Cup final, Cardiff City in an FA Cup Final still sounds absurd, that the result seemed unimportant. My team got to an FA Cup Final in my lifetime and...

Both the 10cc and Queen gigs were played during a deluge, what you would expect from the wettest city in the UK. The scorching summer of 1976 was basically from June till the end of August, so by the...

Like you, me and my girlfriend got absolutely saturated, so much so that I ended up peeling my pound notes apart to pay for the taxi home. Missing Queen was a a very sound decision.

I saw two gigs at the castle, one with the headline act being Queen and the other being 10cc. Wasn't it the Queen gig when it absolutely chucked it down all day ?

I saw Queen live twice, once in the Castle and once in the Capitol and to say they we're mediocre would be somewhat flattering. At the time I was a fan so I didn't go to the gigs with the intention...

I hope the clubs vote for it to be scrapped.

Sounded good when it was first introduced but all spontaneity has been taken out of the game.

All this checking for an offside in the build up to...

Bowie was good but trumping the Beatles ? Never in a thousand lifetimes. The Beatles broke up over 50 years ago and the impact they made on modern music and continue to make is something, with all...

Certainly nothing in his personality that would indicate he has a negative impact on the team.

More likely that the team's tactics have changed to incorporate him. Maybe having a new manager this...

The last team in the top 4 divisions to go a whole season without drawing a game was Darwen FC, whilst in Division 2 back in 1897 !

Spedger, who am I to argue with your very sound judgement. And that goes for bands 2, early 3 and 4.

Never been into percussive guitarists Bob. Probably one of the best is Mike Dawes but that's doing him a disservice as he's far more than that.
