Yesterday I was doing buses thinking it was quite dull on the route even though part of it was through Salford. Going past Man. United old training ground The Cliff (There isn't one, not even a Richards.) and place names like Butt Hill (with Butt Hill Convenience.) were as good as it got. Some kick managed to head but a window, oh dear and some old lady going bald had dyed her hair and got a comb-over. It was a real brillo pad, or shredded wheat job that grew fro the line of the left ear. Get a wig cheapskate or were it bald and proud like another old lady I saw.

So boredom set in when I got a phone call, Nadia had crashed her bus, she was ok, cuts and bruises, but it had hit wall, when the phone went dead. Prestwich does not have the strongest signal.

I was then phoned back after moving to a stronger signal area. I manages to speak to her. The breaks had failed. The bus had hit a car, gone through a railing and hit a wall. It was the TA Medical training centre so lots of army medics and paramedics were on the scene.

Nobody was hurt badly, Nadia had cuts to both hands and on her neck, she even had glass in her underwear. The bady had a few minor cuts and some passengers suffered whip-lash.

She is ok, and although her knuckles are bruised and needs a day off, she will be back tomorrow, Wednesday.

She did make the Manchester Evening News today, (I know it's only just noon and editions are already out.


The picture is bigger than this but LJ won't let it go bigger, boo hiss. Dunno why.

Moo.
