You won't need me to push you then will you?

You will probably be able to book one.

Wheelbarrows are often pushed up and down the road I live in. ;-)

So, you see me as St Cuthman, complete with long beard, which I expect is grey.

Please bear in mind that the individual in the wheelbarrow is the mother of St Cuthman.

Being taken home, legless again, in a wheelbarrow!

I have just had to reimagine my mental picture of you. Now complete with long beard.

:-D

Number 31 goes to Brighton.

People might think I am St Cuthman, easy mistake, he pushed his old mum about in a prototype wheelbarrow.

How wonderful, I will be worshipped!

Been thinking!

The No 12 went to Brighton.

I'm not sure about the conductor, I did think of asking the first violinist to take his place but then thought the double bassiest would be better as they are more used to lugging around large objects. ;-)

Where did the number 12 go?

But she wants to sit on top like a carnival queen!

You could always tie it behind the bus

Sharron

Sharron Report 31 May 2021 23:38

I hope so or I will never get that bloody wheelbarrow up there!

Do they still have conductors on buses?

all the ones in Oz were re-trained for electrical work

Sharron

Sharron Report 31 May 2021 19:15

Do you think the conductor would help?

We’d have to get me and the wheelbarrow up the ladder on the back and then I could sit in the luggage area waving to the admiring crowds like a carnival queen :-D

Why did you find a picture of a Southdown bus? I always thought they looked like budgies.

Where would we put the wheelbarrow then? We will need it for when we get off or are you thinking of her being like the dolly on the dustcart and riding forever on the bike rack?

Caroline

Caroline Report 31 May 2021 18:36

We have bike racks on the front of our buses could you maybe hold on tight there with or without the wheelbarrow??

nameslessone Report 31 May 2021 18:17

I don’t remember those but I did find a picture of an old Southdown bus (No 12) that had a luggage rack on top. Proof at last that I’m not going mad. ;-) :-D

I could cover you with one of those blankets they had in the little cupboard things they had over the seats.

nameslessone Report 31 May 2021 17:41

If it was an old London double decker you could probably shove me in the luggage cubbyhole under the stairs.

If it was an old Southdowns single decker then didn't they have roofracks?

Sharron

Sharron Report 31 May 2021 17:38

Much depends on how much is left when they have finished.

Do you think I would be allowed to take your wheelbarrow on the bus?

Slow down, not with me in the wheelbarrow.

When an very elderly family member said 'bye boys' ( one was wearing a little summer dress) the family were eventually persuaded that he ought to give up driving. This was a long time ago when there were boys and girls.
