    If this is true - and I have my doubts - then how is your behaviour swearing at other passengers any different to the children's?
  • @yorkie2 Yes, why? :confused:
    :o
  • I’d of thrown you off too, you should know better.

    I tried politely asking them numerous times to stop being annoying, but to no avail.

    The individual who posted this has posted numerous similar stories elsewhere. Their stories often involve odd behaviour toward them by teenagers, an admission of some wrongdoing by themselves, allegations poor behaviour by the bus driver, the bus company siding with the driver, and other aspects.

    I've heard stories like this before; they only come from one person, who has stated most of their problems occur in the Scunthorpe area. Some of their stories are written in the third person, as if they observed someone else behaving strangely, but it was probably themselves. Some of their questions are hypothetical while others purport to be based on facts, but the facts are often unbelievable.

    They also complain about the age of buses in Scunthorpe, and that Scunthorpe never gets new vehicles.

    I take anything they say with a pinch of salt!

    Having posted their stories elsewhere, I think they are running out of forums to post their odd stories on; the best forum to use would be The Bus Forum ( https://tangytango.proboards.com/ ) but I assume they've been told not to post such rubbish there, so thought this would be a good place?

    Well, short of me wearing a body camera and filming everytime I board a bus as evidence, what else do you want me to do? 

    You make it sound like there's an embargo on complaining about the age of the buses in my hometown, (obviously there isn't, but your poor attitude towards this thread certainly makes it seem that way), would you be snide in the same way if I complained about the buses in Lincoln, Skegness, Newark, Mansfield etc etc? 

    If you don't believe the age of the buses in my hometown, you are more than welcome to come and visit and take a look for yourself, perhaps as well you'll spot the anti-social behavior from these gangs of teens who I mentioned I had trouble with earlier, they love to use the bus station as their makeshift playground, again little gets done about it.
