Half the shops can't be bothered opening late on the night of the lights switch on. When did late night shopping start ?
It's a subsidised service isn't it, the bus companies will only do what they get paid to do

Re: What a fracass!!
its Pilkies who run the buses up there and yes they are a waste of time, it's actually cheaper to get a taxi up there if there is more than one of you than it is to get on a pilkies bus

Re: What a fracass!!
The buses now only run if they can make the service pay....long gone are the days when running a bus service was a public service.
If it doesn't pay then it doesn't run.
